According to investigators, he was struck by a single round from a bolt-action rifle shortly after noon local time. Erika Kirk described the moment she learned about her husband’s death as a “nightmare” she’s still living through.
“I never saw the video, I never will see it,” she told Fox News. “There are certain things you see in your life that mark your soul forever. I don’t want my husband’s public assassination to be something I ever see. I don’t want my kids to ever see that.” The night before the shooting, Erika and the couple’s young daughter had slept in the master bedroom while Charlie chose to sleep in their daughter’s room. She said she wanted him to get a good night’s rest before his next public appearance.

According to Fox, the award honors individuals who embody Charlie’s mission of faith, family and free speech. Fox News host Jesse Watters, country singer Jason Aldean and his wife, Brittany Aldean, presented the trophy to Erika, who was recently named the new CEO of Turning Point USA. “Charlie would always tell myself and others that America is worth fighting for.
It is and always will be,” Erika shared in her speech. “I’ll never forget the time where somebody told him, ‘I appreciate what you’re saying, I just don’t really like how you’re saying it. I don’t like your delivery, and I think you could reach more people if you changed that.’”
