Erika Kirk, widow of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, broke her silence after his tragic shooting at Utah Valley University.
“My husband will wear the glorious crown of a martyr,” she said. “If you thought his mission was powerful before, you have no idea what you’ve unleashed.”
Charlie Kirk, 31, co-founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed Wednesday. Police arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson in connection with the attack.
Despite the loss, Erika vowed that Turning Point’s American Comeback Tour and her husband’s radio and podcast will continue. “This movement is not going anywhere,” she declared.
The couple married in 2021 and share two young children. “He was the perfect father. He was the perfect husband,” Erika said.
