> An independent review found Utah Valley University failed to complete a written security assessment or event plan before Charlie Kirk’s fatal shooting, leaving key decisions to Turning Point USA. Kirk’s aides pushed for the outdoor venue despite campus concerns, while coordination between university police and private security was inadequate. The review found no bad faith or willful disregard for safety by university staff.
