Charlie Kirk ’s wife Erika Kirk has been heartlessly trolled on social media following the political assassination of her husband at the Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
Kirk, 31, a well-known conservative influencer, was shot in the neck. The shooter remains on the run.
Erika, who is also known as Erika Frantzve, is a model and ministry leader, as well as a former basketball player for Regis University, who was crowned Miss Arizona in 2012.
The couple had two children.
During his speeches, Kirk was strident in his defence of the US second amendment, saying Americans should retain the right to firearms. He often spoke against excessive left-wing ideas.
Erica hasn’t publicly spoken out about the murder, but was targeted by online by trolls who celebrated the death of her husband
