“Can my children have one thing?” Erika Kirk asked, growing visibly agitated.
Ms. Kirk’s late husband, conservative activist Charlie Kirk, was murdered last September when an assassin’s bullet tore through his neck. In recent interviews, Ms. Kirk has addressed those who’ve celebrated her husband’s murder as well as those who’ve suggested the organization he founded is a co-conspirator in his death.
“Can my babies have one thing where we hold it sacred,” she said, “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 while my daughter is sitting there praying?”
She added in a separate interview of those who’ve celebrated her husband’s death, “You’re sick. He’s a human being. You think he deserved that? Tell that to my 3-year-old daughter.”
