A higher power will hand down judgment for the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk, his widow Erika Kirk believes, and she doesn’t want a role in deciding whether he should receive the death penalty if he is convicted.

“I do not want this man’s blood on my ledger when I stand before the Lord,” she told Fox News’ Jesse Watters in an interview aired Wednesday evening. “I want the government to decide. It’s Biblical too. Justice will ultimately be served.”

"I do not want this man's blood on my ledger."

We definitely know now who she isn't:

Seriously though, she's probably aware of how that guy looks more like a patsy than anything nearing competence, and those most responsible would let him die for their "cause".

Like the whole JFK thing it may be up to the Lord to fully sort it out.

Correct.

[No name given]

True.

[No name given]

Agreed.

[No name given]

It would be on HIS ledger.

At his memorial she didn’t say she wanted him executed, or not executed. She said she’d leave that for others to decide.

Did the autopsy ever establish that Charlie was shot with a
.30-06?

Anyone is allowed to express their opinions
Hers carries more weight you could argue
I don’t ascribe to it but there it is

I'll come off a bit sexist, but it's not "women's work" to mete out violent justice. I would not encourage any woman to harden her compassionate and nurturing heart to make life and death decisions like that. Men screwed up when Adam ate the fruit and again when Cain slew Abel. Our punishment is to make these decisions and be held accountable for making or not making them. It's not cool trying to put that mantel on Erika Kirk's shoulders.

I asked DuckDuckGo's A.I. "Results of Charlie Kirk's autopsy" and got:

'There have been no publicly released autopsy results for Charlie Kirk following his assassination on September 10, 2025. However, the circumstances surrounding his death are well-documented. Kirk was shot in the neck during a public event at Utah Valley University while discussing current events related to gun violence.'

Something reeks peculiar here.

I’m not convinced yet of Tyler Robinsons guilt. Some things suggest he might have been a patsy who was setup for this.

[Baladas]

I think that’s what she’s saying. I never could understand these relatives and friends of murder victims that plead to spare the killer’s life.

[hoosierham]

I understand.
But it is not up to her.
I confess that reading(hearing) of some one forgiving the murderer of their child,spouse or friend just is something that confounds me.

Murder my loved one and I will want the killer put down like a rabid dog.

What ledger? -

.... As far as the east is from the west ...

[Hammerhead]

So electrocute him instead

[Hammerhead]

I don’t know when or where this concept of forgiveness came up. It’s certainly not in the Bible. No one is obligated to offer forgiveness to any offending party unless that party offers a sincere apology first.

"...living death: Colorado Supermax aka ADX Florence - ..."

It's been said by ex cons that pretty bois like Ferguson do not do too well in prison. He may end up like Fred Flintstone having a "'gay' old time ". Even if he really is that way he'll wish that they strapped him in the chair, or in front of a firing squad etc.

No worries, Erica.

I’ll take the hit.
