Disclaimer: Inclusion on this page does not imply that this individual had knowledge of, participated in, or committed any illegal or immoral act. This page documents their publicly known connection to the events of September 10, 2025 for investigative reference only.
Living Person Notice: Jack Hibbs is a living person. We document only what commentators have publicly said about him, with attribution. We do not assert wrongdoing.
Investigative Value
Jack Hibbs is a Christian pastor and commentator. The material about him in the investigation file is thin and speculative, so this page is kept deliberately modest. His name appears only because some X commentary connects him, as a relative, to Butch Hibbs, a person cited in discussions of backstage access at the UVU event, and characterizes his public advocacy on Israel policy. None of this describes any action by Jack Hibbs on or around September 10, 2025.
The relevant context lives in the Witnesses and Israel threads.

What is reported
- According to X commentary retained in the file, Jack Hibbs is described as a pastor associated with PragerU and characterized as advocating pro-Israel, "Israel-first" positions. This is a characterization by commentators, not a documented action tied to the case.
- The same commentary alleges a family relationship between Jack Hibbs and Butch Hibbs, and further alleges unverified claims about the family's background. The file's own author flags uncertainty ("I thought you were all… crazy but now I'm not so sure").
- Counterpoint: These are unverified allegations and characterizations posted online. Nothing in the file describes any conduct by Jack Hibbs connected to the shooting, and there is no evidence he was present or involved. Public advocacy on policy is lawful expression and is not evidence of wrongdoing.
Open Questions
- Is the alleged family relationship between Jack Hibbs and Butch Hibbs actually documented, or only asserted online?
- What, if anything, connects Jack Hibbs to events at UVU beyond an alleged relative's presence?
- Are the online characterizations of his background sourced at all, or purely speculative?
Status
Status: Alive. No crime is alleged against Jack Hibbs; this page documents only attributed online commentary about him, under strict defamation-safe framing, and notes that the underlying material is thin and unverified.
Sources
- X commentary referencing Jack Hibbs and an alleged family connection to Butch Hibbs, retained in the project's private investigation file. All such material is unverified allegation, presented for reference only.
