‘The cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry'
In an impassioned speech two days after her husband was assassinated on a college campus in Utah, Erika Kirk vowed to carry on her husband’s mission at Turning Point USA and to spread the Gospel and “make Heaven crowded.”
Speaking through tears, Charlie Kirk’s widow said when she returned home, her daughter, Gigi, asked, “Where’s daddy?”
“What do you tell a 3-year-old? She's 3,” the mother of two said mournfully. “I said, baby, daddy loves you so much. Don't you worry. He's on a work trip with Jesus so he can afford your blueberry budget.”
Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin was identified Friday morning as Taylor Robinson, 22, following a 33-hour manhunt after he fled the scene at Utah Valley University in Orem, where a TPUSA event was being held.
