Roommate says Charlie Kirk suspect admitted shooting as hearing enters final day

New testimony in the case of the man accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk in Utah

At his preliminary hearing, a judge heard from his former roommate, who says Tyler Robinson admitted to the shooting and said he wished he had not done it

Former roommate and romantic partner Lance Twiggs testified Thursday as prosecutors continued laying out their case against the 23-year-old Robinson

Twiggs told the court he saw Robinson the day after the shooting death of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University

and he was pacing around their apartment. When he asked if what Robinson had told him the night before was true

Twiggs said Robinson confirmed it, then became emotional. Didn't go into detail

I just asked him in person if what he said was true the night before, and he said it was

I started crying a little bit and said he wishes he hadn done it and then kept going around and just doing stuff I think to keep himself busy or distracted or something Prosecutors also displayed screenshots of text messages

They say Robinson sent twigs before the shooting, including one that read, I had enough of his hatred

They also showed surveillance video they say tracks Robinson's movements on campus before the shooting

Robinson has not entered a plea to aggravated murder charges. Prosecutors say he targeted Kirk because of his political views

while his defense has challenged key DNA evidence and fought to keep some of this week's testimony and exhibits from being made public

The high-profile hearing has drawn large crowds, with people camping outside the courthouse for one of just 14 public seats available each day

Charlie Kirk's widow and parents have attended the proceedings, at times leaving the courtroom during the presentation of graphic evidence

At the end of the hearing, the judge will decide whether prosecutors have presented enough evidence to send the case to trial
