UVU Investigation Index

Utah Valley University is both the physical kill zone and an institution whose GRAMA records show pre-event warnings buried, emergency alerts with placeholder text, and post-shooting courtyard paving within days. This memo maps the threads without asserting that any UVU employee committed a crime. Physical-site roster: courtyard tent, Losee Center rooftop, 785 College Dr construction witness, Hardscape paving, Canon XA55 ~46 m audio.

Judge Tony Graf — gag Dec 16, 2025; closed preliminary; no bail Sept 16. March 2026 defense seal motion on ATF inconclusive autopsy jacket vs Mauser 98; media coalition opposes (@Candice60896290 threads per Grok Q10). FBI/ATC DNA chain-of-custody withholding per @Sina1MAGA commentary.

Utah County Attorney Chad Grunander led early press on the UVU crime scene; commentary references prosecutor Christopher Ballard and reported June 2026 contempt disputes with TMZ/Fox over sealed material — orientation only, not adjudicated findings. See Media — trial press.
