The trangender boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, “hates conservatives and Christians,” according to a relative.
Lance Twiggs, whom authorities have confirmed was in a romantic relationship with Robinson and is transitioning from male to female, began to act differently when he turned 18, developing animosty for his family and for the conservative values he was brought up with, a relative told Fox News Digital.
“He hates conservatives and Christians,” the relative, who asked to remain anonymous, said.
“He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized.”
She added: “He has obviously gotten progressively worse the last year or two.”

She said Twiggs now seems “always very angry.”
Twiggs is cooperating with authorities and has not been charged or accused of wrongdoing, according to the FBI and Utah officials.
The relative said that Twiggs and Robinson were both heavily influenced by the online gamer communities that they were a part of.
“I think Tyler got a whole lot worse in the year they have been dating. They are big gamers, and obviously they have that group that influences them as well as others,” she said.
She added: “Everybody in my family wants justice to be served and wants no part in this and wants whoever is involved in whatever way to have to pay for that.”
According to public records, Twiggs, lived with Robinson at the same $1,800-per-month St. George, Utah address townhouse.
A relative previously confirmed to the Post that they were roommates. The family member, who asked not to be identified, said Twiggs was the “black sheep” of their family.
Kirk, 31, was murdered on Sept. 10 at Utah Valley University on the first stop of his American Comeback Tour college speaking engagement. He was struck in the neck by a single bullet shortly after being posed a question about transgender mass shooters.
The FBI told Fox News that the roommate has been, “extremely cooperative,” in the investigation and claimed he had “no idea” about Robinson’s alleged assisnation plans.
Robinson’s family reported him after he recognized his son in surveillance videos that the FBI released.
