A Pennsylvania school board member accused of celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk was summoned to a packed powder-keg public meeting - and delivered a stunning excuse.
Misty Hunt, of the Homer-Center School Board, was ridiculed after a post emerged on her social media the day that Kirk was fatally gunned down in Utah.
The statement, which was posted just moments after the conservative activist's assassination read: 'One down, hundreds to go.'
Fury erupted online as she was hounded for seemingly celebrating the death of the political activist - with some in the local community demanding she stand down.
On Thursday, around 60 people crammed into an elementary school gymnasium in Homer City, 50 miles east of Pittsburgh, for a contentious showdown with Hunt.
