Charlie Kirk's close friend calls for death penalty for convicted assassins

PROVO, Utah — Charlie Kirk's close friend Jack Posobiec called Friday for convicted assassins to face the death penalty after spending five days in a Utah courtroom watching prosecutors present what he described as "an avalanche of evidence" against the man accused of murdering the Turning Point USA founder last year.

"I think the death penalty should be sought for any assassin," Posobiec, a senior editor at Human Events and former Navy intelligence officer, told reporters outside the Fourth District Courthouse in Provo, Utah, Friday.
