Neighbors say that suspected of killing Kirk is ‘patriot’ of ‘great family’

According to residents, “whole neighborhood is very close”. In an interview with the BBC, Robinson neighbors said they “are a great family, ordinary citizens.” The grandmother of one of the interviewees even said that they are “very patriotic people.”

“It’s a good family,” said Utah governor Spencer Cox on Saturday to CNN. According to the Republican, the suspect “had a normal childhood. All those things you would expect to never lead to something like that. And unfortunately they took it.”

Tyler specifically “was a very quiet boy,” said another neighbor to the BBC. Also according to her, his younger brothers used to get more involved in community activities and sports.

In recent times, suspect had lived with bid twiggs, 22, with whom he would have a relationship, according to local press. In testimony, Twiggs showed the police posts of Robinson on Discord. In the messages, the suspect talked about the “need to recover a rifle”.

Neighbors were shocked. “All this time, I never imagined I was living with someone who can do something like this,” said one of the people interviewed with the BBC. “This makes you wonder: how close am I from someone who could do something like this?”
