Victor Marx, a Republican candidate for governor of Colorado, has sparked controversy after refusing to disclose how many people he has killed. In an interview with 9News anchor Kyle Clark, Marx was questioned about a previous claim that he killed a man at the age of 7 under the coercion of his stepfather. When asked if that was the only person he had killed, Marx hesitated for ten seconds before responding. He stated that while he could confirm the childhood incident, he had been in situations as an adult where people may have died as a result of his self-defense actions in foreign countries, but he could not provide a specific count or evidence. When pressed further on whether he had killed anyone as an adult, Marx replied, “Does it matter?” This exchange has raised eyebrows as Marx competes against Colorado State Senator Barbara Kirkmeyer and Representative Scott Bottoms in the GOP primary for the governor's race.
