Erika Kirk, widow of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, is calling for cameras to be allowed in the courtroom during the murder trial of the man accused of killing her husband at a Turning Point USA rally in Utah earlier this year.
In an exclusive interview, Erika Kirk said, “There were cameras all over my husband when he was murdered. There have been cameras all over my friends and family mourning. There have been cameras all over me, analyzing my every move, my every smile, my every tear. We deserve to have cameras in there.” Her comments came in response to defense attorneys for Tyler Robinson, 22, requesting that cameras be banned from the court proceedings due to the trial’s high-profile nature.
Charlie Kirk was shot in the neck at Utah Valley University and later pronounced dead at the hospital. Robinson turned himself in days after the shooting and faces charges including aggravated murder and six other counts, with Utah seeking the death penalty. Erika Kirk, who now leads TPUSA, said, “Why not be transparent? There’s nothing to hide. I know there’s not because I’ve seen what the case is built on.”
Robinson is scheduled to return to court in January. The killing has intensified discussions about political tensions in the U.S., with many on the right, including former President Donald Trump, claiming that liberal rhetoric has encouraged political violence. “Let everyone see what true evil is,” Erika Kirk said. “This is something that could impact a generation and generations to come.”
