UPDATE: TEXT MESSAGES RELEASED BETWEEN ROBINSONS ROOMMATE WHO HE REFERS TO AS MY LOVE AND KISSES BUT IS TOTALLY NOT HIS BOYFRIEND
Prosecutors released this text exchange between Robinson and his roommate
Robinson: I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet. Shouldnāt be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you.
Roommate: you werenāt the one who did it right????
Robinson: I am, Iām sorry
Roommate: I thought they caught the person?
Robinson: no, they grabbed some crazy old dude, then interrogated someone in similar clothing. I had planned to grab my rifle from my drop point shortly after, but most of that side of town got locked down. Its quiet, almost enough to get out, but theres one vehicle lingering.
Roommate: Why?
Robinson: Why did I do it?
Roommate: Yeah
Robinson: I had enough of his hatred. Some hate canāt be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence. Going to attempt to retrieve it again, hopefully they have moved on. I havenāt seen anything about them finding it. ā¦
Roommate: How long have you been planning this?
Robinson: a bit over a week I believe. I can get close to it but there is a squad car parked right by it. I think they already swept that spot, but I donāt wanna chance it ā¦
Robinson: Iām wishing I had circled back and grabbed it as soon as I got to my vehicle. ⦠Iām worried what my old man would do if I didnāt bring back grandpas rifle ⦠idek if it had a serial number, but it wouldnāt trace to me. I worry about prints I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits. didnāt have the ability or time to bring it with. ⦠I might have to abandon it and hope they donāt find prints. how the fāk will I explain losing it to my old man. ⦠only thing I left was the rifle wrapped in a towel. ⦠remember how I was engraving bullets? The fākin messages are mostly a big meme, if I see ānotices bulge uwuā on fox new I might have a stroke alright im gonna have to leave it, that really fāking sucks. ⦠9 judging from today Iād say grandpas gun does just fine idk. I think that was a $2k scope ;-; ā¦
Robinson: delete this exchange
Robinson: my dad wants photos of the rifle ⦠he says grandpa wants to know who has what, the feds released a photo of the rifle, and it is very unique. Hes calling me rn, not answering. ā¦
Robinson: since trump got into office [my dad] has been pretty diehard maga. ā¦
Robinson: Im gonna turn myself in willingly, one of my neighbors here is a deputy for the sheriff.
Robinson: you are all I worry about love
Roommate: Iām much more worried about you
Robinson: donāt talk to the media please. donāt take any interviews or make any comments. ⦠if any police ask you questions ask for a lawyer and stay silent
