In the weeks since Charlie Kirk's assassination, rumors have circulated online, with some directly claiming that his tragic death was an inside job.

One of the individuals who appeared to spearhead these claims is Candace Owens, who once stated that the right-wing influencer's organization betrayed him.

Regarding these unfounded allegations, Charlie's wife, Erika, revealed that she has been observing the narratives being spread, and while she doesn't have time to address the noise, her silence does not mean she is complacent.

She then issued a warning to the conspiracy theorists with regard to the narratives about her staff being involved in Charlie's death.

"My silence does not mean that somehow Turning Point USA and all of the handpicked staff that loved my husband and my husband loved them is somehow in on it," she said during an interview with Fox News' Harris Faulkner.

Speaking further about why she had not addressed the rumors earlier, Erika revealed that she and her team are "busy building."

Her statement appeared to refer to her new role as CEO of her late husband's nonprofit, as well as her media tour promoting the book he completed a month before his assassination.

Still, Erika pointed out that she had hoped the conspiracy theorists would have approached the truth about her husband's death in a less disturbing manner, but their actions have deeply upset her.

She added that while she doesn't mind if they direct accusations at her, she cannot support them targeting her staff in the same way.

"Come after me, call me names, I don't care. Call me what you want, go down that rabbit hole, whatever," the mother of two said.

"When you go after the people that I love, and you're making hundreds of thousands of dollars every single episode, going after the people that I love, because somehow they're in on this? No," Erika further remarked.

Erika's anger was deeply felt by the host, who couldn't help but comment on seeing the widow react in such a way.

According to Faulkner, witnessing Erika's reaction was a first for her, and this prompted Erika to describe her anger as "righteous."

"This is righteous anger because this is not okay, it's not healthy. This is a mind virus," the widow said.

Erika then went on to emphasize that her reaction, and potentially more to come if the speculation continues, is a duty to her husband that she remains determined to uphold.

"It's an absolute honor," Erika added. "And I will never back down. And so my message to them is to stop - to stop."

On social media, netizens supported Erika for finally addressing the conspiracy claims.

"I've never seen her act like this or say these things. I'll just say I'm so glad she finally did. She's had enough. Leave her alone," one wrote.

"Good for her! She knew exactly the message she wanted to convey and delivered it. It's ok to ask questions; it's wrong the way these people are handling it," a second user noted.

Some netizens also suggested that Erika was directly addressing Candace Owens, who once claimed she is Charlie's friend.

"The truth is, Candace wants the market share and voting block Charlie left behind. She will lose, and it's only a matter of time," a third netizen commented.

"You want to watch in high-res the video of my husband being murdered, and laugh, and say he deserves it," she continued. "There's something very sick in your soul, and I'm praying that God saves you."
