Kirk family may have path around archaic law shielding gov't in police chief’s alleged ‘got you covered’ text

UVU police chief sent a text message that Charlie Kirk's family says could be used in their wrongful death lawsuit against the university. Utah law shields government entities from liability in most civil cases, but the family's legal team believes the message may provide an exception to that protection. The text, which the family characterizes as a "got you covered" statement, is central to their argument that the university acted with deliberate intent or reckless disregard. UVU has not publicly responded to the specific claims about the message or the lawsuit.
