Charlie Kirk was fatally shot at an event at Utah Valley University in September. His death sent shockwaves through the world, and Erika Kirk was left a widow with the couple’s two children. Still, while her husband was assassinated, she states that the US doesn’t have a gun problem.
Charlie Kirk was shot and later pronounced dead after being shot during a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University on September 10. 22-year-old Tyler Robinson was arrested following a nationwide manhunt and was charged with seven offences, including aggravated murder and obstruction of justice.
Charlie’s wife, Erika Kirk, became a widow and solo parent to the couple’s two children. Since her husband’s death, she’s continued to appear in public as she’s taken over as CEO of Turning Point America.
“We’ll never be silenced,” Erika Kirk said on The Charlie Kirk Show shortly after Charlie’s death. “That’s why continuing his platform in a beautiful, honorable way will reinforce that he will never be silenced. My husband’s voice will go on.”
