Twiggs Testimony: Early Departure and Campus Identification
At 20:20 · chapter starts 19:55
The hearing moves into the chronological timeline established by Twiggs's testimony. Clip 8 covers Robinson's departure: Twiggs says he heard him leave early and Robinson claimed he had a long drive to work. When pressed, Twiggs estimates it was around 4 AM — possibly earlier. Blake does the arithmetic on air: the drive from St. George to Orem is about three hours and forty-five minutes, which places Robinson at UVU around 8 or 9 AM, exactly consistent with the campus surveillance footage. Clip 17 then shows prosecutors showing Twiggs the FBI's press release images of the suspect captured on campus. Twiggs, who says he had barely seen the media coverage before Robinson came home, looks at the images and says the shoes, sunglasses, and clothing definitely look like Tyler — a powerful lay identification from someone who knew him intimately. Graham Allen reinforces that all lines of evidence converge on Robinson, despite what he calls 'crazies on the Internet' claiming every piece of evidence somehow weakens the state's case.

Drive time: ~3 hrs 45 min
The drive from St. George (Robinson's home base) to Orem (UVU campus) is approximately three hours and forty-five minutes, consistent with a 4 AM departure and campus arrival around 8–9 AM.
Twiggs Identifies Robinson in FBI Surveillance Images
When shown the FBI's press release images of the campus suspect, Lance Twiggs said: 'That definitely looks like Tyler Robinson.' He identified the shoes, sunglasses, and clothing style as consistent with Robinson's typical appearance — a powerful lay identification from someone who knew him intimately.
The Dremel Tool That Ties It All Together
Lance Twiggs testified that about a month before September 10, Robinson asked to borrow his Dremel tool to engrave bullets — telling him it was for a hunting trip. DNA from the same Dremel tool later matched Robinson, physically connecting him to the weapon preparation process.
