PUBLISHED: | UPDATED:

The Republican candidate for secretary of state in Michigan was reportedly accused by her ex-husband of trying to kill the entire family after he asked for a divorce.

The ex-husband of Kristina Karamo, an election denier who is endorsed by former President Trump, says she once tried to grab the steering wheel of their car as he drove with their two young daughters in the back

Kristina Karamo “attempted to wrestle control of the vehicle” from her then-husband, Adom Karamo, and tried to crash it, Jezebel reported, citing court papers.

“F— it, I’ll kill us all.” Kristina Karamo said, according to the ex-husband, who did not say when the alleged incident took place.

Adom Karamo, who reportedly refused to comment, made the explosive claims in a 2021 family court filing seeking time sharing for the daughters, who are now 13 and 14. A judge granted him 60 nights a year of time with the children.

He apparently never reported the incident at the time to the police and did not object to his ex-wife having custody of the children, suggesting that he no longer feared for their safety.

Kristina Karamo was picked by an overwhelming vote of Republican convention delegates to take on Democratic incumbent Jocelyn Benson.

The community college professor burst into prominence by claiming she had evidence of fraud in the 2020 election in Michigan, which President Biden won by more than 100,000 votes. Trump falsely claims he really won Michigan and several other battleground states.

If elected, Kristina Karamo would oversee the administration of elections in the crucial swing state.

She also called abortion “child sacrifice,” and demonic possession is real.
