Cox says that investigators interviewed Robinson's roommate, who showed them messages between him and an account with the name "Tyler" on the messaging app Discord.

The messages from "Tyler" stated the need to retrieve a rifle from a drop point, leaving it in a bush, watching an area where the rifle was left and having left the weapon wrapped in a towel, Cox says.

Well that wasn't a wise choice.
