Robinson, who was working for Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, was shot by a SWAT team in Texas after leading officers on a chase in a vehicle with stolen plates. Video footage captures the tense moments leading up to his death, revealing a vulnerable and chaotic scene in a hospital parking garage.

As Robinson exited the vehicle with his hands up, he made a movement that prompted officers to shout warnings before shots were fired. It was later revealed that Robinson had multiple felony warrants against him and had been operating under an alias,“Mike King.”In her statement, Crockett expressed alarm at how he managed to evade the vetting processes for security personnel working for Congress, calling attention to the need for better oversight.
