Charlie Kirk’s family filed a notice of claim against Utah Valley University, its police department, police Chief Jeffrey Long, former UVU President Astrid Tuminez, and the state, signaling an intent to pursue a wrongful-death lawsuit over his Sept. 2025 killing at a Turning Point USA rally. They allege UVU failed to conduct a meaningful risk assessment, to write a security plan, and to provide adequate staffing or real-time surveillance, contributing to the tragedy. The notice does not specify a monetary amount; lawsuits typically follow within about 90 days. Tyler Robinson faces aggravated-murder charges and could face the death penalty if convicted.
