“My Prediction of His Murder Has Come True” – Security Expert Claims He Warned Charlie Kirk That He Could ‘Get Killed’

Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old conservative activist, was shot and killed on Wednesday while speaking at Utah Valley University. His sudden death has left not only his supporters but people across the country in shock and deep sorrow.

Charlie wasn’t just another political figure; he was known for being ambitious, outspoken, and passionate about defending free speech and encouraging open debate. He built his career around giving a voice to issues and communities he believed were being overlooked. Over the years, he became a close ally of former President Donald Trump and was seen as one of the rising stars in the conservative movement.

At just 18 years old, Charlie co-founded Turning Point USA in 2012, an organization that quickly grew into one of the most influential conservative youth movements in America. That step gave him purpose, recognition, and a platform that propelled him into national politics. Today, while his family, friends, and political colleagues mourn, reports from the Daily Mail highlight a chilling detail: Charlie had been warned about his safety not long before the tragedy.

According to Kris Herzog, the owner of the Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills, he personally spoke with Charlie on March 6, 2025, at a rally held at California State University. Herzog, who has worked with several A-list celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Sharon Stone, recalled warning Charlie directly that his life was at risk and that he needed to take drastic security measures. Charlie responded politely, saying he would think about it and would reach out if necessary. Unfortunately, he never followed up.

“Sadly, he never got back to me, and now my prediction has come true,” Herzog said in regret. He explained that he had strongly advised Charlie to use advanced protective measures such as portable bulletproof glass panels and to implement tight security screenings, including metal detectors and hand wands within several hundred feet of his speaking areas. But Charlie, known for his confidence and straightforward nature, didn’t adopt those recommendations.

Those who knew him say Charlie was bold and unafraid to speak his mind, even if it meant stirring controversy. His outspoken views on schools, LGBTQ policies, and other hot-button political issues earned him both strong support and harsh criticism. His growing influence and frequent public appearances, particularly at schools, rallies, and stadium events, made him an easy target. Many people close to him had urged him to increase his security, but his team never matched the level of risk that came with his public presence.

Mark Wilson, a colleague of Herzog, also spoke with Charlie at that March 6 rally. Wilson described himself as a “huge fan of Turning Point USA” and said he personally urged Charlie to take his security more seriously. He even suggested wearing a bulletproof vest. But once again, Charlie didn’t act on it. “It’s super sad what has happened,” Wilson said, visibly shaken by the news.

Witnesses from Wednesday’s Utah Valley University event confirmed that security was surprisingly weak. Tyler McGettigan, who was in attendance, admitted he entered the venue without anyone checking his ticket—even though it had a scannable barcode. This, he said, showed how unprepared the organizers were for a potential threat.

Then tragedy struck. In the middle of responding to a question about transgender-related violence, Charlie was hit by a single sniper’s bullet. The shot ended his life instantly. FBI officials and Utah Governor Spencer Cox quickly labeled the killing as a “political assassination” and a “targeted attack.” Disturbing video footage from the scene captured the horrifying moment, leaving the nation in disbelief that such an act could happen in broad daylight, on a university campus, before a live audience.

Charlie Kirk’s assassination has already been described by experts as having the clear signs of a professional sniper attack. The investigation is ongoing, but for many Americans, the pain is immediate and raw. A young father, activist, and one of the most recognized conservative voices of his generation is gone—taken in a way that feels both senseless and preventable.
