The text messages between alleged assassin Tyler Robinson and his live-in boyfriend have been disclosed, revealing unsettling details about his actions.
Roommate: “What?????????????????? You’re joking, right????”
Robinson: “I am still ok my love, but am stuck in Orem for a little while longer yet. 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.”
Roommate: “You weren’t the one who did it, right????”
Roommate: “I thought they caught the person?”
Robinson: “No, they grabbed some crazy old dude, then interrogated someone in similar clothing. I had planned to grab my rifle from my drop point shortly after, but most of that side of town got locked down. It’s quiet, almost enough to get out, but there’s one vehicle lingering.”
Robinson: “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence. Going to attempt to retrieve it again, hopefully they have moved on. I haven’t seen anything about them finding it.”
Roommate: “How long have you been planning this?”
Robinson: “A bit over a week I believe. I can get close to it but there is a squad car parked right by it. I think they already swept that spot, but I don’t wanna chance it.”
Robinson: “I’m wishing I had circled back and grabbed it as soon as I got to my vehicle. … I’m worried what my old man would do if I didn’t bring back grandpa’s rifle. … idk if it had a serial number, but it wouldn’t trace to me. I worry about prints I had to leave in a bush where I changed outfits, didn’t have the ability or time to bring it with. … I might have to abandon it and hope they don’t find prints. How the fuck will I explain losing it to my old man …”
Only thing I left was the rifle wrapped in a towel. …
Remember how I was engraving bullets? The fuckin messages are mostly a big meme, if I see “notices bulge uwu” on Fox News I might have a stroke. Alright I’m gonna have to leave it, that really fucking sucks. …
Robinson: “Judging from today I’d say grandpa’s gun does just fine idk. I think that was a $2k scope ;-)”
My dad wants photos of the rifle … he says grandpa wants to know who has what, the feds released a photo of the rifle, and it is very unique. He’s calling me rn, not answering.
Since Trump got into office [my dad] has been pretty diehard MAGA.
Robinson: “I’m gonna turn myself in willingly, one of my neighbors here is a deputy for the sheriff.”
Don’t talk to the media please. Don’t take any interviews or make any comments. … If any police ask you questions ask for a lawyer and stay silent.
And before you say that can’t possibly be real, it is.
