“When we walked into that room … he had this smirk on his face,” Erika said, dabbing tears from her eyes. “That smirk, that smirk to me is that look of, ‘You thought you could stop what I’ve built. You thought you could end this vision, this movement, this revival. You thought you could do that by murdering me. You got my body; you didn’t get my soul.’ “The night before Charlie was assassinated, Erika and her daughter slept in the couple’s bed. Charlie slept in their daughter’s bedroom. She claimed she wanted him to get a “good night’s sleep” before his speaking engagement the next day. “That night, he [Charlie] was so excited.
