We devise a model to explain why twisted bi-layer graphene (TBLG) exhibitsinsulating behavior when $\nu=2,3$ charges occupy a unit moir\'e cell, afeature attributed to Mottness, but not for $\nu=1$, clearly inconsistent withMott insulation. We compute $r_s=E_U/E_K$, where $E_U$ and $E_K$ are thepotential and kinetic energies, respectively, and show that (i) the Mottcriterion lies at a density $10^4$ higher than in the experiments and (ii) atransition to a series of Wigner crystalline states exists as a function of$\nu$. We find, for $\nu=1$, $r_s$ fails to cross the threshold ($r_s = 37$)for the triangular lattice and metallic transport ensues. However, for $\nu=2$and $\nu=3$, the thresholds, $r_s=22$, and $r_s=17$, respectively are satisfiedfor a transition to Wigner crystals (WCs) with a honeycomb ($\nu=2$) and kagome($\nu=3$) structure. We believe, such crystalline states form the correctstarting point for analyzing superconductivity.
