New revelations have emerged about the transgender roommate of Tyler Robinson, the suspect in the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
According to a Fox News report, the roommate, identified as Lance Twiggs, was kicked out of their parents' house over issues such as substance abuse, addiction to video games and gender identity.
After their father kicked Twiggs out, the youth lived with their grandfather, according to a relative.
According to the relative, Twiggs, who is in the process of transitioning from male to female, was kicked out of their parents' home when the youth was 18.

Twiggs used to share an apartment with Tyler Robinson in Utah after moving out of their grandparents' house. According to the relative, the two were in a romantic relationship.
(Their father) thought he wasn’t being respectful and was problematic, so they kicked him out," the relative was quoted as saying, adding, "He then lived with (their grandparents) until he was 18 and graduated from high school."
"He moved into a townhome and paid full rent, and there were other college roommates at the time," the relative was further quoted as saying.
Tyler Robinson had, in a text message to Twiggs, confessed that he had killed Kirk. The exchange between the two was later released by prosecutors. Twiggs had received the messages regarding the assassination of Kirk from Robinson merely hours after the murder, but did not alert the cops about it.
Twiggs hasn't been charged with any crime so far.
