Turning Point USA has finally responded to Candace Owens's conspiracy theories linking Charlie Kirk's assassination to those at the top of his organization.
Blake Neff, Kirk's longtime producer, took to the airwaves on Wednesday after Owens 'tarred everyone at TPUSA in complicity with Charlie's death'.
And in a dramatic twist, Neff called Owens's bluff and invited the provocateur to appear on the Charlie Kirk Show to have her allegations tested live on-air.
Owens has for weeks spewed vile theories that those closest to Kirk were involved in his assassination, while pushing absurd conspiracies involving Egyptian government jets and French paratroopers.
'My friends have had to endure harassment from people who have gotten whipped up by what Candace is saying,' Neff said.
'In fact, I would say we have suffered more harassment from these people than we have from Antifa supporters who overtly celebrate Charlie's murder.'
Neff recounted numerous claims by Owens, including that the atrocity at Utah Valley University on September 10 was an 'inside job'.
He pushed back on Owens's claims that Kirk's security team intentionally withheld first aid, her suspicions toward technical staff handling camera equipment, and her wild allegations against TPUSA staff, pastors, and even members of a college soccer team.
He stated that these allegations have fueled online harassment against his colleagues and friends, noting that the hostility stirred up by Owens's followers has surpassed even what they've faced from anti-Kirk activists.
Neff also accused Owens of making her claims to 'manipulate and string along an audience of people who don't realize they are being played'.
However, in a shocking twist at the end of his monologue, Neff invited Owens to appear on the Charlie Kirk show to have her allegations challenged head-on, noting that 'the ball was in her court'.
The dismantling of Owens's claims also did not stop with her, as Neff additionally called out her zealous supporters as 'worse than Antifa'.
Answering the question of why it took so long for TPUSA to address the accusation, Neff noted that Kirk did consider Owens a close friend, and that he believed in being beyond conservative infighting while he was alive.
When approached for comment by the Daily Mail about TPUSA's refutations and if she would accept Neff's invite to appear on the show, a spokesman for Owens said that she would answer our inquiries live during her next podcast episode on Wednesday.
Charlie was shot dead while speaking at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. Tyler Robinson, 22, a left-wing college dropout, has been charged with killing him.
Charlie had built Turning Point USA into one of the most influential conservative youth organizations in America, known for its campus activism and annual conferences that drew thousands of young conservatives.
After his death, Erika publicly delivered a statement vowing to carry on his work as the new CEO of the organization.
Trump memorably eulogized Charlie at his memorial service days later and comforted Erika who mourned the loss of her husband.
'We know the weight of this monumental loss is almost unbearable,' he said.
'But even in the midst of heartache and pain too great to even fathom, you have somehow found the strength and deep faith to be a comfort to millions and millions of people.'
More than 60,000 people attended the service, which was held at State Farm Stadium, home of the Arizona Cardinals NFL team.
