ABLECHILD: Will the Defense Team Challenge Utah’s Behavioral Health Connection?

Will the Defense Team Challenge Utah’s Behavioral Health Connection?

According Utah Sheriff Mike Smith, lead investigator into the assassination of Charlie Kirk, he received a call from Washington County Sheriff Nate Brooksby that the mother of accused assassin, Tyler Robinson, essentially was convinced that her son had committed Charlie Kirk’s murder, so one would expect Robinson’s legal powerhouse team to do, among other things, a deep dive into the family’s state behavioral health connections. In fact, Robinson’s “pros from dover” “O J level” legal representation is astonishing on its face.

Of the three super attorneys, Kathryn Nester of the Salt Lake law firm of Nester-Lewis, independent attorney, Michael N. Burt of San Francisco, California, Richard G. Novak, also of California, they have between them a gazillion hours of criminal litigation and expertise in Capital cases specializing in forensics, specifically DNA.

While the prosecution has yet to lay out its reported “substantial” evidence in the case, everyone is aware that a 30-06 Rifle was found in the woods belonging to the accused. Although Robinson’s DNA was reportedly found on the alleged weapon, given that the gun belonged to the accused shooter, one would expect Robinson’s DNA to be on the weapon. The prosecution will have to prove that Robinson brought that weapon to Utah Valley University (UVU) and pulled the trigger.

But beyond the obvious, there are too many pieces of Kirk’s political assassination that simply don’t make sense or are contradictory. Frankly, Utah law enforcement has made statements and promoted timelines that have changed and don’t fit the actual events of the day. But Robinson’s powerful defense team will comb through the contradictions and the state’s evidence. The bottom line, though, is that every person accused of Capital murder should be so lucky to have such a defense team.

That team will have to consider Robinson’s family and even his romantic partner, Lance Twiggs, who had been transitioning from male to female for some time. The defense team will want to know whether Amber Robinson, a certified social worker, employed by Intermountain Care Coordination LLC via the state of Utah, had any connection to the medical/psychiatric treatment being provided to her son’s partner and the role intermountain gender affirming care had, if any.

Robinson’s defense will surely have to do a deep dive into the alleged assassin’s mental health background. While there is currently a great deal of speculation surrounding Twiggs being “trans,” nothing has been provided that would suggest that Robinson had also been considering transitioning.

More importantly, the defense will have to know whether Robinson had received any or several psychiatric diagnoses and whether Robinson had received any psychiatric mind-altering drugs including any psychiatric drugs that were given to him at arrested. Further it would behoove the “pros” to question Twiggs’s psychiatric history and psychiatric drug use.

It cannot be ignored that Robinson’s mother, Amber Robinson, was employed by a state-funded behavioral health organization, Intermountain, that acted as go-between for providers and patients. Did Amber Robinson play any part in Twiggs’ transition or referring her son to a behavioral health expert? Medical referrals matter and it must be revealed whether the accused shooter’s mother, through state associated employment, played any role in the partner of her son or her own son’s mental health treatment, if any.

It still is early in the case and little to no new “evidence” has been provided to the public. But the “indigent” Robinson couldn’t have asked for a more intensive defense team.

The fact that a DNA expert makes up part of the team is essential, but it would be unwise for the super litigators to ignore the role behavioral health may have played in the lead up to the assassination.  It appears if a “behavioral health” rock is thrown in any direction it would hit the initial suspect arrested yelling he killed Charlie Kirk, to the accused mother, and Lance Twiggs male partner that was clearly under some medical/psychiatric care.
