FBI director Kash Patel informed the Senate Tuesday that there are 'more than 20 people' in Tyler Robinson's Discord chat and all of them are under full FBI investigation, as they probably had the knowledge about Charlie Kirk's assassination before it took place.
"We are investigating Charlie's assassination fully and completely and running out every lead related to any allegation of broader violence. And we're producing results on that that will disclose when appropriate," Kash Patel said on a particular question on Charlie Kirk interrogation, which brought enough fire for Patel personally and for the FBI.
During an appearance on The Megyn Kelly Show on Monday, FBI deputy director Dan Bongino said it was "up in the air" how many people lived with Robinson besides his boyfriend Lance Twiggs.
"We have the suspect in this case and then we have Lance. How many people they associated with and how many in fact lived or resided there? It's up in the air," he said.
"However, there is apparently a network of people... given his network of friends and associates. What was the level of foreknowledge about this attack? Did they know something and refuse to say something? Did they know something and think it was a joke?"
'I have the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk'
The possibility that many people in Tyler's network were aware of what Tyler was going to do surfaced after the FBI confirmed the existence of a chilling note. "I have the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it," the note said. The FBI confirmed that the note existed long before the Charlie Kirk shooting and was destroyed after the shooting.
It is not yet confirmed whether Lance Twiggs told the investigators about the note or whether he was one of those who were aware of the note.
