GOP Candidate Won’t Say How Many People He’s Killed

June 1, 2026 · 2:42 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Colorado gubernatorial candidate Victor Marx sat down for an interview with KUSA’s Kyle Clark:

CLARK: Your claim that your abusive stepfather forced you to kill a man when you were seven years old — is that the only person you’ve ever killed?

MARX: Well, I would say… as a child, yes, without question, but I’ve been in other situations where possibly people or persons died as a result of me defending myself in other countries.

CLARK: Do you think that you’ve killed people as an adult?

MARX: Does it matter? I don’t think that’s important. It’s actually kind of — it’s an odd question to me.
