   Tyler Robinson’s transgender lover was under FBI protection after he   
   seemingly vanished from his Utah hometown for months, a family member   
   and sources revealed.   
      
   In the family’s first public remarks since Robinson was arrested for   
   Charlie Kirk’s Sept. 10 assassination, the relative also cast doubt on   
   just how cooperative Lance Twiggs is to the police.   
      
   The revelation comes as the Twiggs’ family member said the young lovers   
   – both 22 – were once talented, promising students who spiraled into   
   delusion thanks to video games and an online Discord chatroom.   
      
   “Being as antisocial as they were, from my understanding – you know,   
   playing these games and being part of this, this Discord group … they   
   didn’t seem like they were in a real world,” the unnamed relative said   
   during an interview with NewsNation’s Brian Entin Thursday.   
      
   She said their distorted sense of reality was even evident in the   
   now-public text messages they exchanged immediately following Kirk’s   
   murder at Utah Valley University, in which Thompson allegedly confessed   
   to the hateful slaying.   
      
   “The world that they were in, like this gaming world, like that was a   
   normal way that they kind of spoke,” she explained.   
      
   But that wasn’t always the case.   
      
   “Both of them are super smart…[Lance] was a concert pianist – he has   
   talent for piano. [His] music was off the charts – not normal, it was   
   very impressive.   
      
   “And that’s kind of what I heard about Tyler is that he was just so   
   smart.   
      
   “It’s just a shame that these kids had so much potential and so, such a   
   bright future.”   
      
   Authorities provided protection for Twiggs and his family while they   
   moved from place to place for a while – but he’s with his family now,   
   according to the relative.   
      
   “My understanding was for the first few weeks, cause there was so many   
   threats against his family and him, that…they did have a little bit of   
   FBI detail and they kind of moved around a little bit, but they’re not   
   anymore. He’s with his family,” she said.   
      
   At the time, Twiggs appeared to just disappear from his St. George, Utah   
   hometown, where he previously lived with Thompson in an $1,800-per-month   
   townhouse.   
      
   A law enforcement source confirmed to Fox News Digital Thursday that   
   Twiggs was no longer under FBI protection, but he was cooperating with   
   authorities.   
      
   His family member, however, doubted to what extent.   
      
   “When I first found out about how he was taken in and talked to by the   
   police…I know that they said that he was very cooperative but they had   
   to go get him and bring him in – he didn’t voluntarily go in and say,   
   ‘Hey, I heard about this and I have some knowledge,’” she said.   
      
   “You know, he had to go in and then he handed things over when they   
   asked for them, but he didn’t give up any information until he had to.”   
      
   But Robinson’s guilt is one thing she’s sure of.   
      
   “100% they have the right guy,” she said.   
      
   Robinson is facing seven felony charges of aggravated murder, discharge   
   of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, obstruction of justice, two   
   counts of witness tampering and commission of a violent offense in the   
   presence of a child.   
      
   He remains behind bars pending trial and could face death by firing   
   squad if convicted, since Utah is one of five states that still allow   
   the antiquated method of carrying out capital punishment.
