Prosecutors Grant Lance Twiggs Use-Immunity for April 20 Statement in Tyler Robinson Murder Case

Summary
A new court filing says Lance Twiggs received use-immunity for a recorded statement he gave authorities on April 20 in the Tyler Robinson death penalty case.
Prosecutors said the immunity means that specific statement cannot be used against Twiggs, while still allowing them to present the recording and his communications with Robinson at a July preliminary hearing.
Twiggs is identified in the filing as Robinson’s transgender roommate and romantic partner, placing him close to events surrounding the killing of Charlie Kirk.
The filing adds a new procedural detail to a capital case already drawing scrutiny over defense allegations of prosecutorial misconduct tied to media comments.
