Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk admitted that she has “righteous anger” toward conspiracy theorists stirring speculation about her husband’s death.
Kirk appeared on Fox News’s Outnumbered on Wednesday to address theories surrounding the assassination of her husband, Charlie Kirk, on Sep. 10 in Orem, Utah, at a TPUSA campus event.
Kirk fiercely defended TPUSA against rumors that her husband was killed by someone other than the suspect in custody, Tyler Robinson.
“Come after me, call me names, I don’t care. Call me what you want. Go down that rabbit hole, whatever,” she said. “But 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 and thousands of dollars every single episode going after the people that I love, because, somehow, they’re in on this, no.”
Kirk was discussing her late husband’s forthcoming book, Stop in the Name of God, when her tone changed to respond to conspiracy theorists, Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner said.
“I have to say it. I have never seen you like this,” Faulkner said.
Kirk responded, “This is righteous anger, because this is not OK. It’s not healthy. This is a mind virus.”
“Yes, I believe in our judicial system,” she continued. “I do. We have a hell of a team working on this. Excuse my French. But this is not OK. This is a duty to my husband. And it’s an absolute honor. And I will never back down. And so my message to them is to stop, to stop.”
Infighting recently broke out within TPUSA. Talk show host Candace Owens, who claims to have traveled the most with Kirk’s late husband for TPUSA campus events, began an investigation into the September assassination. While Kirk did not mention Owens by name, she acknowledged that “grieving” people “are trying to find the answer to something that happened that was so evil.”
“And I get that,” she said. “We’re doing the same. Any time we hear a lead or any time 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.”

Kirk said TPUSA has received “more death threats on our team and our side than I have ever seen” as a result of conspiracy theories.
Kirk also announced that TPUSA is building “the most beautiful memorial for my husband at Turning Point USA” with a “museum-style” homage.
The Washington Examiner reached out to Owens for comment.
