Records show that University of Utah staff waited weeks after Zhifan Dong was last seen to escalate the issue to campus police. Her ex-boyfriend is charged with murder.

After McCluskey’s killing in 2018, the university pledged to improve domestic violence training and streamline the school’s response to reported abuse.

“Especially after professing to have learned from Lauren McCluskey’s death, it is inexcusable that the University continues to make the same mistakes with the same tragic consequences,” Stewart, whose firm also represented McCluskey’s family, said in a statement. “They knew Zhifan was in serious danger but failed to protect her when she needed it the most,” they said in a statement provided by Stewart.since Dong and Wang, international students from China, were admitted and started dating last fall.— city officers brought Wang to jail and released him the same day after he agreed to a temporary restraining order, Salt Lake City police said.

The next day, officers who were called to the same hotel hospitalized Wang involuntarily due to a suicide attempt, Salt Lake City police said. Police think Dong made the call for help, but officers found Wang alone and could not determine whether Wang had violated the protective order.The school first heard about the Jan. 12 altercation two days later, when Dong relayed her concerns about Wang’s suicidal ideation to the university’s housing staff.

Campus cops should all be fired. UUtah

Really, this is Utah, after all. Women have come and gone there since 1847.

On the next episode of ‘When Utah Goes Wrong’

Universities have top notch legal teams, who work solely to protect the interests of the universities who employ them. Sadly, student welfare is not their primary concern. Protecting the university’s brand, reputation, and endowments is their sole objective.

This is just tragic but it happens over & over. Women are killed by their boyfriends or husbands before they are given the protection they so desperately need. 💔😢

Zzzzzzzz

Waited how long?
