Family of Charlie Kirk alleges UVU safety failures enabled campus shooting

The Kirk family filed a wrongful-death notice against Utah Valley University and state officials, alleging lax campus safety and security measures allowed a rooftop shooter to kill Charlie Kirk at UVU in Orem on Sept. 10, 2025. The notice claims failures such as inadequate risk assessment, lack of secure perimeters, no first responders readily available, and no security checks, potentially paving the way for a lawsuit. UVU has said it will address the notice, while the accused shooter, Tyler Robinson, awaits trial on aggravated-murder charges.
