In the exchange, Robinson, 23, first told Lance Twiggs that the rifle belonged to his grandfather and at first said he was worried about whether cops would trace its four-digit serial number back to him, according to a text dated shortly after September 10, 2025 shooting.

He wrote that the gun is old but “judging from today, I’d say grandpas gun does just fine,” according to the text.

As Robinson’s trial unfolded Thursday, prosecutors showed a text exchange between Robinson and Twiggs in which they also allegedly discussed Robinson ditching the gun.
Robinson circled back to the scene and sat in his car for around and hour, waiting for a chance to recover the rifle, the texts state.
