Erika Kirk, the widow of conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, appeared on the December 10 episode of Fox News Channel’s Outnumbered. During the conversation, she addressed the ongoing speculation surrounding her husband’s burial site and explained why the family chose not to disclose the location.The discussion began when the host referenced the “disturbing” wave of online conspiracies and guesswork about Kirk’s resting place.Erika responded carefully, emphasizing that while much of their life had been public, some aspects of her grieving process needed to remain private, including information about Charlie Kirk’s grave.“Can I have one thing? Can I have one thing? Can my children have one thing? Everything was public,” Erika Kirk saidShe then shifted to discuss the future legacy of her husband, noting that despite keeping his burial site private, the family planned a public tribute."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," she added.She also acknowledged concerns about political hostility or vandalism, saying that keeping the burial site private ensured she and her “babies” could have “one thing” to hold sacred without worrying “about some secular revolutionary coming and destroying” Charlie Kirk’s grave as his daughter prayed beside it.Erika Kirk also reflected on the contrast between Charlie’s public persona and their private family life.“This is my husband. Yes, he was Charlie Kirk to the world, and I know so many people love my husband, and I am grateful for that, but this is my husband, and I want to be able to have one thing left that is sacred to our family, to my in-laws, to my babies, and to my parents. One thing,” Charlie Kirk’s widow explained.Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, addresses conspiracy theories surrounding her late husband's deathErik Kirk (Image via Getty Images)During her appearance on Fox News Channel’s Outnumbered, Erika Kirk confronted the wave of conspiracy theories targeting her, her late husband Charlie Kirk, and the people who worked closely with him.She described the rumors as emotionally draining, even if she tried not to let them take “nothing” from her outwardly.Erika Kirk then drew a parallel between the conspiracy theories surrounding Kirk and what she described as “chapter six in the book of Nehemiah.” She recalled the biblical moment in which Nehemiah was “building a wall” while townspeople gathered below, “calling him all these names” and urging him to “come on down.”She noted that Nehemiah repeatedly responded with the same firm message, she he "cannot come down" as he was "busy building”, and said her situation made her feel similarly.She explained that she didn’t have time to “address the noise,” but her “silence” didn’t mean she was “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,” she said.She further added that she herself and her TPUSA team were “busy building” and “grieving” in their own way, while “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 added.Erika Kirk explained that the spread of conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie Kirk’s death had made it increasingly difficult for her and her team to uncover the truth.She said the constant speculation was creating obstacles rather than clarity, describing how people kept urging her to “come down while we’re building,” a demand she felt she simply did not have time for. She indicated that this ongoing pressure had brought her close to what she described as her “breaking point.”Erika Kirk went on to convey that criticisms directed at her personally did not bother her. She suggested that people could “call me names” or “go down that rabbit hole,” and she still would not care.But she stressed that her tolerance ended the moment those conspiracies targeted the people closest to her. She explained:“Call me what you want. Go down that rabbit hole, whatever, 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.”Erika and Charlie Kirk (Image via Getty Images)At one point, the host noted that Erika Kirk appeared more fired up than in past interviews. Kirk agreed, explaining that her reaction came from a place of genuine outrage at the relentless attacks and misinformation directed toward her family and staff.“No, I’m there. 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…but this is not okay,” Erika Kirk said.Erika went on to stress that words, especially online, carried real impact. She explained that she didn’t care “what box you’re in,” but insisted that people must remember that her team was human, not “machines” or “robots,” and the constant speculation and attacks wore them down.She described the severity of the threats she and her staff have experienced, including “more death threats…kidnapping threats.” She said her team was “exhausted” and argued that every renewed wave of online commentary on Charlie Kirk’s death forced them to “relive that trauma all over again.”Erka Kirk also spoke about the lasting psychological impact on her team, many of whom witnessed Charlie Kirk’s killing firsthand.She explained that they have been “rocked to the core,” noting how relieved she was that she did not witness the murder herself. Yet she questioned why they must be “dragged through the mud” and “hyperanalyzed” daily, especially when they were still coping with the trauma of that day.Charlie Kirk was assassinated while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on September 10, 2025. Tyler Robinson, the key suspect in his murder, was taken into custody the next day.Eight days later, Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow, stepped in as the new CEO of Turning Point USA, marking a swift and symbolic transition as TPUSA sought stability and continuity in the wake of its founder’s death.
