Messy and conflicting descriptions are emerging of Lance Twiggs, 22, the mysterious transgender live-in-lover of Charlie Kirk assassination suspect Tyler Robinson. In 2020 he was a gifted pianist with a glowing reputation and spotless record, attending a magnet school for brainiacs. Last week he was called “troubled,” “full of evil” and estranged from his family.
ST. GEORGE, Utah — In 2020 he was a gifted pianist with a glowing reputation and spotless record, attending a magnet school for brainiacs.
Last week he was called “troubled,” “full of evil” and estranged from his family, according to Wisconsinrightnow.com
These are the messy and conflicting descriptions emerging of Lance Twiggs, 22, the mysterious transgender live-in-lover of Charlie Kirk assassination suspect Tyler Robinson.
His former teachers are baffled: “Everything I’ve heard about him, he was a great kid. He was nice. He worked hard,” Ben Kaufman, superintendent of Twiggs’ high school, told The Post. “I heard all good things.”
Twiggs and Robinson went to high school four miles from each other in St. George, Utah, and both graduated in 2022.
Robinson attended Pine View High while Twiggs was at Dixie Success Academy — later named Utah Tech Success Academy — an accelerated program operating inside the local university where students take college level courses and graduate with an associates’ degree worth of college credit.
There, Twiggs was an acne-riddled teen who excelled at piano, playing Gershwin’s Prelude No. 1 in a 2020 recital which also featured his brother, who played Chopin.
“The kids music had been like a peaceful river flowing through our home for many, many years. I feel so grateful,” his mother allegedly wrote in a now-deleted Facebook post from 2020.
The school attracts “students that have been bored through school and want to excel,” Kaufman told The Post, adding the small student body has zero time for extracurriculars and do little else but study.
Twiggs, the son of a hot tub salesman, also worked in a grocery store as a boy, according to social media content reviewed by The Post.
The turning point appears to have come when he was kicked out of his strict Mormon parents’ house in his junior year. The reasons why are disputed.
‘[His father] thought he wasn’t being respectful and was problematic, so they kicked him out,” Twiggs’ relative alleged in an interview with Fox News.
He was also “using drugs and alcohol, and was addicted to [online] gaming,” the family member added.
