Brittany Visage is a Colorado resident who became an advocate for criminal justice reform following the tragic death of her mother, Christy Kirk, in November 2024. Kirk was killed when she was dragged 300 feet by a driver in a McDonald's parking lot. Despite a confession from the driver, all charges were dropped on competency grounds, leaving the family without justice.
Visage has since become a voice for reforming Colorado's competency laws, which she argues allow violent offenders to escape accountability for their actions. Her advocacy highlights the gaps in the legal system that can leave victims' families without recourse when perpetrators are deemed incompetent to stand trial.
On the Kim Monson Show in August 2025, Visage shared her family's heartbreaking story and called for legislative changes to ensure that competency determinations do not become a loophole that allows confessed criminals to avoid prosecution entirely. Her advocacy represents the growing movement of crime victims' families demanding accountability in Colorado's criminal justice system.
