The contents of a handwritten note that Tyler Robinson allegedly left for his boyfriend and roommate, Lance Twiggs, in which he confesses to planning to shoot Charlie Kirk, have been made public.
CBS affiliate KUTV reported that an affidavit for a search warrant of Robinson’s residence said that investigators met with Twiggs, who showed them text messages he exchanged with Robinson on Sept. 10, 2025, the day of the shooting.

In one of the messages, Robinson instructed Twiggs to “drop what you are doing” and “look under my keyboard.”
Twiggs told investigators that he looked under the keyboard and found a handwritten letter which read, “If you are reading this per my text, then I am so sorry. I left the house this morning on a mission, and set an auto text. I am likely dead, or facing a lengthy prison sentence. I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I took it. I don’t know if I will/have succeeded, but I had hoped to make it home to you.”
“I wish we could have lived in a world where this did not feel necessary. I wish I could have stayed for you and lived our lives together. I lack the words to express how much I love you, and how very much you mean to me. Please try and find joy in this life. I love you, always, -Tyler.”

Kirk was shot and killed at a Turning Point USA outdoor event taking place at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.
It was the first stop in “The American Comeback Tour,” in which Kirk invited students to “Ask Me Anything.”

ABC News reported that Robinson has been charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, obstruction of justice, two counts of witness tampering, and commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child.
Prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty for the 22-year-old.
Last fall, Utah Valley District Attorney Jeff Gray read to reporters text messages that Robinson allegedly sent to Twiggs in which the former said about Kirk, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out. If I’m able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence.”

“I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet,” he added. “Shouldn’t be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you.”
