Robinson's friend sounded shocked, repeatedly saying “oh my god” to himself between questions from the dispatcher, the Columbus Dispatcher reported. “I don’t know why he even called me to do that,” he said. “I just don’t understand.”

Another call was made to 911 from someone in the home who said he heard four shots fired upstairs. He told police he thought Robinson had shot Isabella, and that a 4-month-old child was in the room with them.

Court documents revealed Robinson had been out on bail since May 2023 while facing three weapons charges and one count of drug possession stemming from an incident in 2022, Fox 28 reported. Documents also show that police reported Robinson was in possession of a Glock Switch with a fully loaded magazine while at a park in June 2022.

Robinson was not supposed to have a weapon at all, according to Franklin County Court of Common Pleas documents, due to an aggravated burglary charge he faced in 2021. His next court appearance was set for Sept. 19 this year.

CPD Sergeant Joe Albert pleaded that people involved in a domestic dispute to try and settle matters without violence. “We beg and plead people, don’t resort to firearms to settle your disputes if you’re in a potential domestic violence relationship, reach out and get help. We don’t want any more victims.” he said.
