BREAKING: Erika Kirk comes out in support of courtroom cameras in Tyler Robinson trial

Erika Kirk has demanded that there be transparency in and camera access in the Utah courtroom where Tyler Robinson will be tried for the murder and assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Robinson's defense has argued that there should be no media access or cameras in the courtroom for the trial.

Erika appeared in an interview with Fox News' Jesse Watters Primetime, where the host asked, "The defense wants to ban cameras in the courtroom. How do you feel about that?"

"There were cameras all over my husband when he was murdered. There have been cameras all over my friends and family mourning, there have been cameras all over me, analyzing my every move. Analyzing my every smile, my every tear," Kirk said.

"Why not be transparent? There's nothing to hide. I know there's not because I've seen what the case is built on let everyone see what true evil is. This is something that could impact a generation and generations to come," she added.

The interview with Watters comes after the defense lawyers for Robinson have argued that he should be seen in shackles, wear civilian clothing, and other requests, arguing that appearing in the shackles and an orange jumpsuit would cause prejudice in the court.

The judge in the case, Tony Graf, ruled that Robinson could appear in civilian clothing and that he cannot be filmed as he is entering or exiting the court with shackles. He will still have to wear the shackles in court for purposes of safety.

However, he did not rule on the ban for cameras and kicked the can down the road, vacating a hearing earlier this week that may have decided if the ban would be implemented.
