Conspiracy theorist and content creator Candace Owens has linked Turning Point USA CEO and Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika Kirk to the Jeffery Epstein case. The podcaster claims to delve deep into Erika’s past and the level of allegations that have taken the internet by storm.
Five days ago, Candace created a podcast called “Did Erika Kirk Know Jeffrey Epstein?”

The audio, available on Spotify, was captioned: “President Trump Appoints Erika Kirk to Air Force Academy Board of Visitors, and Erika Continues Involvement with Countries, Companies and Schools Epstein Was Involved With.”
She also took aim at Erika Kirk as part of her ongoing investigative series “The Bride of Charlie” — this time suggesting that Charlie Kirk’s widow may have once operated on the same New York social circuit as convicted sex offender financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Candace first surfaced the claims on the Tuesday, March 10, episode of her podcast, admitting that she developed a “growing suspicion” that Erika “may have crossed paths” with Epstein while spending time at modeling agency Next Model Management.
“I have a hunch, a growing hunch, that Erika and Jeffrey Epstein may have crossed paths,” Candace told listeners, according to multiple reports.

She added: “More people have come forward about what specifically Erika Kirk was doing at Next Model Management – in Epstein’s orbit in New York.”
In a post shared on X on March 11, Candace promoted her podcast episode titled “EXPLOSIVE! What Erika Kirk was doing In Epstein’s Orbit,” insisting the situation raises questions that “demand answers.”
According to an AOL report, Candace claimed during the podcast that unnamed sources recalled seeing the former pageant queen — who she also went by her maiden name, Erika Frantz Fey — in meetings at Next Model Management’s New York offices.
According to Candace, these meetings were about arranging real estate for models traveling to the city.

Candace also singled out agency co-founder Faith Kates, who claimed that Jeffrey frequented the company because of their friendship.
“Jeffrey Epstein was in this office a lot,” the podcaster claimed. “He used to go to the office just like you would if she was your friend.
She later reiterated in a post on X that “Erik’s verified connection to Epstein’s orbit is through Faith Kates’ Next Model Management and upper east side model apartments.”

This time, however, Candence dismissed the viral audio claiming that Erika Kirk was plotting underage girls for Epstein as false.
“The audio that’s been going around is not Erika Kirk. It’s been sent to me numerous times over the last month and my team was able to detect it, which is why we didn’t include it in our series,” she said.
False audio claim: Erika ‘trying to recruit girls for Epstein?’
In audio that recently went viral, a woman could be heard plotting with the underage girls of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The voice was claimed to be that of Erika Kirk, CEO of Turning Point USA. However, the claim was false.
Although the audio, pulled from Epstein’s DOJ files, depicts an Epstein associate actually planning the girls for the late financier, the voice in question is not Erika Kirk, the Hindustan Times reported.
The report added that there is no known mention of Erika Kirk in the more than 3 million pages of Epstein files released by the Department of Justice (DOJ).
“Erika May Be Involved in Sex Trafficking”
Now, another video from Candace’s podcast is going viral. A social media user shared the video with the caption: Candace mocks Erika Kirk. He calls her a fraud.”
“He then implies that TPUSA shouldn’t be around high schoolers because Erika was somehow involved in human trafficking/sexual abuse scandals. At this point, I think Candace is intentionally trying to put Erika Kirk at risk,” the user wrote while sharing a clip from the podcast.

Another X user said: “Maybe I’m wrong but after listening to it for myself she sounds like a scorned lover. It sounds like she hates Erika because she wishes she was the one to marry Charlie.”
