Moments after Charlie Kirk was shot and killed, the conspiracy theories began. And no one has done more to amplify them than Candace Owens, who seized on the death of her friend to build an online empire with baseless accusations and tenuous half-truths. In the first installment of MS NOW's The Deep End with Brandy Zadrozny, we traced Owens' path from rising MAGA star to one of the internet’s most divisive agitators — as she led a network of conspiracy theorists in casting doubt on the official story of Kirk's death, blaming everyone from government officials to his widow, Erika Kirk. This is the story of what happens when a political movement built on conspiracy theories becomes the target of its own creation.
