US EditionPaxton Launches Investigation Into UNT, Citing 'Abysmal' and 'Nonexistent' Actions in Response to Students' Dispute over Charlie Kirk
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton alleges UNT failed to discipline students who celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination and allowed radical leftist groups to promote violent rhetoric on campus.
- On Thursday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced an investigation into the University of North Texas for failing to `ward off left-wing violence` after Charlie Kirk's death last month.
- After the classroom confrontation, Paxton sent a Sept.19 letter urging UNT to investigate after Mary-Catherine Hallmark, UNT student, said she was told to leave by her professor and reported inadequate staff response.
- Evidence Paxton highlighted includes group literature and posters from the American Iron Front and social-media footage of a student tearing up Turning Point USA materials, posted by Rep. Andy Hopper.
- UNT said it will cooperate with the investigation and is reviewing recent actions by community members, while Paxton urged expulsion of students alleged to have celebrated Kirk's death.
- Earlier this month Paxton authorized undercover probes into `leftist terror cells`, amid broader pressure as some colleges expelled students mocking Kirk and Gov. Greg Abbott urged expulsions.
