Candace Owens said she privately warned Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk, about two people linked to Turning Point USA (TPUSA) whom she believed may have had early knowledge of Charlie Kirk’s death. Owens made this claim during her December 18 appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored. Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University. Since then, the case has remained under investigation. While authorities have not confirmed any internal involvement, Owens said she felt something did not sit right and chose to speak privately instead of publicly.During the interview, host Piers Morgan asked Owens directly if anyone inside Turning Point USA could have known about the killing in advance. Owens replied that she had concerns about two specific people and said she shared those concerns with Erika Kirk and Justin Strife. “There is specifically two people at Turning Point USA and I have communicated that information to Erik and Justin Strife that I would not be surprised if they had foreknowledge of Charlie Kirk being assassinated,” Candace Owens said.
Candace Owens admits no proof but says she urged a closer look
Piers Morgan pressed Candace Owens on whether she had proof to support such a serious claim. Owens admitted she did not. She said that is why she refused to name the people publicly.“I’m not going to name. I am not going to name those people. Okay. Because it’s not right for me to name those people until I know for a fact that they are involved,” Owens explained.Piers Morgan then asked if she had still shared the names privately with Erika Kirk. Owens confirmed that she had. Morgan summed it up by saying she told the widow that two current TPUSA employees may have been involved without evidence.“So you got no evidence, but you’re telling the widow that these two people may have been involved in the murder. But you see the problem,” Morgan said.Owens pushed back. She said she was not accusing anyone. She said she was only pointing to areas that deserved more attention.“I told them that if I were in your shoes, these would be two employees that I would look further into,” Owens added.Candace Owens also said the information she shared came from a third party, but she refused to reveal that source. She stressed that naming people without proof would be wrong and harmful.“Unless I am fully confident that they actually did have something to do, like here is the smoking gun, I’m not going to name those people,” Owens said.After Charlie Kirk’s death, Erika Kirk became CEO of Turning Point USA. Candace Owens continues to discuss the case on her podcast, but she has repeatedly admitted she has no confirmed evidence to support her suspicions.Also Read: Erika Kirk Sparks Fresh Debate At AmFest 2025 After Egypt Joke Tied To Candace Owens And Charlie Kirk Death Claims
