‘I want justice for my husband’: Erika Kirk calls out people pushing conspiracy theories about Charlie Kirk’s death
“I do not have time to address the noise. My silence does not mean that I am complacent.”
“I do not have time to address the noise. My silence does not mean that I am complacent.”

In an interview with Fox News’ Outnumbered on Wednesday, Erika Kirk, the widow of the late Charlie Kirk, called out those who have been pushing conspiracy theories about her husband’s September assassination in Utah. Kirk said that she wants "justice for my husband."
Outnumbered’s Harris Faulkner asked Kirk, "talk to me about this part of the conspiracies that are out there, this disturbing part that people are trying to guess where Charlie is."

We will. be building the most beautiful memorial for my husband at Turning Point USA, and it will be for the world to see. And it will be spectacular, and it will have a basically museum style for our Charlie, for my Charlie. 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 some secular revolutionary coming and destroying my husband’s grave?"
Kirk continued, "I will tell you what they are doing. It reminds me so much of chapter six in the book of Nehemiah. He is building a wall, and the townspeople are at the base of that hill, saying Nehemiah, calling him all these names, saying all these things, come on down. Every single time he had the same message four times in a row, I cannot come down. I am busy building. That is how I feel. I do not have time to address the noise. My silence does not mean that I am complacent. My silence does not mean that somehow Turning Point USA and all of the hand-picked staff that loved my husband and my husband loved them, is somehow in on it."
"We are busy building and you know what I thought? I thought these people are human, we are all grieving in our own way, and they are trying to find the answer to something that happened that was so evil, they are trying so hard, and I get that. We're doing the same. Anytime we hear a lead, or anytime we hear anything, we send it to the authorities, 'please dig into this.' No rock will be unturned. I want justice for my husband, for myself, for my family, more than anyone else out there."
She said that people can "come after me, call me names," but her "breaking point" is when "you go after my family, my Turning Point USa family, my Charlie Kirk Show family."
"When you go after the people that I love, and you’re making hundreds of thousands of dollars every single episode going after the people that I love, because somehow they’re in on this, no."
"This is righteous anger, because this is not okay. It's not healthy. This is a mind virus. Yes, I believe in our judicial system, I do. We have a hell of a team working on this, excuse my French, but this is not okay."
