Less than one month after Charlie Kirk's death, Candace Owens made an incendiary claim: Kirk came to her in a dream and told her he had been betrayed. Owens, a conservative podcaster who worked for Turning Point USA from 2017 to 2019, had taken it upon herself to investigate Kirk's death, homing in on potential betrayers. On her popular podcast, she denied that Tyler Robinson, the troubled 23-year-old from Utah who is standing trial for allegedly murdering Kirk, had acted alone. She suggested Israel somehow played a role. And she said Kirk's former colleagues at Turning Point " including his wife, Erika Kirk " should face scrutiny.
