Sisters Launch GoFundMe After Charlie Kirk Memorial Vandalism, Claim They Are Being 'Harrassed, Fired'

Two Arkansas sisters who made headlines for vandalizing a Charlie Kirk memorial have launched a GoFundMe begging for money after being booted from their jobs.

The activist passed away earlier this month after suffering a fatal gunshot to the neck, with his death sparking divided reactions among Americans across political lines.

Over the weekend, a memorial was held in honor of Charlie Kirk, attended by several notable figures, including President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

Two Arkansas sisters who were caught on camera vandalizing a mini memorial for slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk are now facing the consequences of their actions.

In a viral clip, Kerri and Kaylee were recorded tearing down photos, flowers, and candles left by supporters to honor Kirk following his assassination on September 10 at a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University.

The incident, which took place at the Benton County Courthouse in Arkansas, saw Kerri, who uses they pronouns, allege that Kirk "lived as he died - promoting violence."

They repeatedly yelled "f-ck Charlie Kirk" and seemingly didn't care about being recorded as they put up two middle fingers to the camera.

The situation sparked outrage from local residents, which led to Kerri losing their job at a restaurant called Bella's Table, as the establishment distanced itself from the employee following the situation.

Since the Kirk memorial vandalism went viral, the sisters have resorted to online begging to cover their legal fees. According to reports, they were arrested and charged with first-degree criminal mischief before being freed on bond cumulatively worth $22,500.

They set up a GoFundMe and titled it "FIGHT AGAINST F4CISM HELP PAY FOR OUR LEGAL FEES."

"After the recent events, Charlie Kirk's death, my sibling and I are being doxxed online, and my sibling was fired from their job," Kaylee wrote in the GoFundMe. "This is a direct violation of their First Amendment rights and unconstitutional. This is unfortunate, but anything helps."

"Please help my sibling while they look for another job and stand against the tyranny that is creeping into the country," she added.

In an update, Kaylee wrote: "WE HAVE BEEN THREATENED, DOXXED, HARASSED, AND FIRED."

They've received over $20,000 in donations so far, which they say will be used for "legal counsel and court fees," and are next scheduled to appear in court on October 22.

Kerri and Kaylee's online fundraising effort sparked mixed reactions from donors.

Some of the large sums donated seem to come from leftists, with some trolls only donating the platform's minimum amount to be able to taunt the young ladies in the page's comment section.

One supporter wrote, "Love all the people donating money just to say you 'deserve it.' Take those losers all the way to the bank, girls!!! Keep fighting the good fight."

Another said, "You're not alone; there are people in NWA who have your backs."

Meanwhile, an opposing donor wrote: "You got what you deserved," adding that "Freedom of speech is what you are fighting for, but destroy something based on someone else's."

"Only low-life humans would do such a thing to another human, let alone a father," another donor said, while a third noted, "Guess it pays to do something deplorable."

Not only did they suffer financial repercussions, but it appears their relationship was also affected as a woman named Lacy Christian claimed online that she evicted Kaylee out of her home following the arrests, per the Daily Mail.

Christian explained that Kaylee had been staying at her home and was dating her son, but after she showed indignation for Kirk's murder, they broke up.

"Kaylee has lived in my home now for over a year, and I have never once cut her down or not allowed her to have the beliefs that she has," she said. "However, I will not allow someone living in my home to be OK or celebrate a murder... and I will never allow someone to live in my home who is OK with destroying a memorial for someone else."

Meanwhile, a major memorial was organized by Turning Point USA in Kirk's honor, drawing the who's who across conservative lines.

The event was attended by several notable figures, including  President Donald Trump, who was seen warmly greeting Elon Musk.

The former pals' relationship became fractured over a disagreement on the politician's Big Beautiful Bill; however, Kirk's passing seemed to have helped bring them together for the first time in months.
