The family of slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk is suing Utah Valley University, accusing it of catastrophic security failures that led to his assassination on campus last year. They claim the university ignored critical safety risks—including rooftop access—despite being warned by campus police chief Jeffrey Long, who assured organizers the situation was under control. The lawsuit names multiple defendants and seeks accountability for preventable lapses that left Kirk vulnerable to a shooter firing from a campus building. As political violence rises, the family insists justice must be served for their lost loved one.
