Erika Kirk Addresses Conspiracy Theories Surrounding Husband Charlie Kirk’s Death
On Wednesday, December 10, Erika Kirk appeared as a guest on ‘Outnumbered’ on Fox News. During her time on the show, she was asked to address conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie’s passing. In response to those “trying to guess” where Charlie’s body is, Erika explained that she would like her and her children “to have one thing.”
“Everything was public,” she said in part. “… But can I have one thing? Can my babies have one thing where we hold it sacred, where my husband is laid to rest, where I don’t have to be worried about [someone]… coming and destroying my husband’s grave while my daughter is there praying… This is my husband, and I want to be able to have one thing left…”
Additionally, Erika noted that she’s heard of the theories stating she and Turning Point USA are “in on” what happened to her husband. However, she doesn’t have the time to address the chatter because she’s “busy building.”
“They are trying to find the answer to something that happened that was so evil. And I get that — we’re doing the same,” she said. “… No rock will be unturned. I want justice for my husband, for myself, for my family, more than anyone else out there…”
From there, Erika addressed conspiracy theorists earning “hundreds of thousands of dollars.” She urged them to refrain from speaking about her family and Turning Point USA members. Furthermore, she called her staff members “human.” And explained that they have been receiving death and kidnapping threats from all of the internet chatter.

Candace Owens Reacts
Candace Owens apparently caught wind of Erika Kirk’s appearance and responded to her comments while on a livestream on Wednesday evening. During the stream, initiated via YouTube, Owens reiterated hearing that the body of Charlie Kirk has yet to be buried. Although she agreed with Erika wanting his burial location to be private, Owens noted that Erika is suffering from “Meghan Markle syndrome” in wanting publicity and privacy to be given to her on her time. Furthermore, Owens even noted Erika taking pictures over her husband’s casket after his passing.
“That is an incredibly personal and an incredibly intimate moment that you invited the public into,” Owens said. “There was no reason to do that outside of wanting to share something that was very private with the public… It doesn’t work like that. You have to make a decision: I want this always to be private or I want this always to be public…”

From there, Owens asserted that Turning Point USA members have shared “verifiable” lies with the public. Additionally, she noted that Erika has made time for obligations related to the president and the Trump administration; therefore, she should have the time to address the public.
Lastly, Owens responded to Erika, claiming that theorists have made hundreds of thousands by stating that Turning Point has allegedly made more than $100 million since Charlie’s death.

“‘But gosh darn you people that are making hundreds of dollars every day on YouTube talking about Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the b.s. narrative that’s being fed, and the very obvious psychological operation that’s being employed to make you accept the b.s. that they are trying to sell to us,'” Owens mimicked.
