Candace Owens Sued for Defamation Again
Candace Owens has been sued for defamation by Brian Harpole, former security chief for Charlie Kirk, over claims she made on her podcast and social media. The lawsuit alleges that Owens, along with Mitchell Snow, spread false conspiracy theories implicating Harpole in Kirk's assassination. Harpole's legal team asserts that the accusations were baseless and part of a coordinated effort to defame him using unverified information.

- ▪Harpole's legal team states that neither he nor his company, Integrity Security Solutions, had any involvement in or prior knowledge of the assassination.
