Gov. Cox defends Utah Senate president
Utah Gov. Spencer Cox stood by state Senate President Stuart Adams on Thursday, defending the top lawmaker's decision not to disclose his personal connection to a law inspired by the criminal case of his granddaughter. During a tense exchange with reporters, Cox said there is no need for an investigation into Adams' behavior because he and Senate Majority Leader Kirk Cullimore, R-Draper, have openly stated the extent of their involvement in the law's passage. 'There's nothing to investigate,' Cox said. 'The facts of this are very, very clear.' What is the new law? The provision, which passed in 2024 as part of SB213, allows 18-year-old high school students to be charged as 17-year-olds if they engage in noncoercive sexual activity with teenagers who are 13. In a stated effort to keep the process fair, Adams did not tell legislators, except for Cullimore — the bill's primary sponsor — that his granddaughter was currently the defendant in a Davis County criminal case falling into that category. Cullimore has said that after Adams told him about his granddaughter's situation in 2023 he contacted her defense attorney, Cara Tangaro, to identify statutory changes to prevent high school students from being charged with child rape when no force was involved. The change was discussed in committee hearings and floor debates before passing as part of the 49-page criminal justice omnibus bill. The law did not apply retroactively to Adams' granddaughter, but it was referenced at her sentencing. Court observers disagree on the extent to which the law may have shaped the eventual plea bargain that let the granddaughter avoid a prison sentence and sex offender designation. 'I don't think there are any facts in dispute,' Cox said. 'He talked to the Senate majority leader. The Senate majority leader took that information and he proposed a piece of legislation.' Calls for Adam to resign State Sen. Nate Blouin, D-Salt Lake City, Utah Democratic Party Chair Brian King, and activist groups across the political spectrum have called on Adams to resign, alleging that he abused his power. But Cox said these criticisms are unfounded. This is the process taken by many pieces of legislation, the governor said, and by not disclosing his personal situation, including to Cox, Adams allowed lawmakers to focus on the policy's merits. 'Every single legislator has experiences in their life where they see something that they feel may be unjust, and that influences the way they bring legislation to the table,' Cox said. Cox pushed back against some legislators who have said the provision was snuck into the bill late in the process. It was part of the initial draft and was debated by stakeholders, Cox said, adding that those who say they didn't know about the provision are 'lying to you, or they're a terrible legislator.' Review will happen Cox repeatedly said he was 'grateful' that Adams had not told him 'this was impacting someone in his family' because it may have changed how he 'reacted to the bill.' But Cox said he and others now have a chance to revisit the legislation if needed. On Friday, Utah House Speaker Mike Schultz announced the creation of a working group of policy experts to 'review' SB213 and analyze state laws related to unlawful sexual activity among high school students. In an interview with Deseret News and last week, Adams said he had no participation in the drafting of the provision, or its placement in SB213, and said the way the bill became law 'was done ethically and morally perfect.' Cox said on Thursday that Adams made the right call by staying out of the legislative process as much as he could as it related to the provision — even if it was initiated by his concerns tied to a family connection. 'I think it was appropriate for the top person in the Senate not to weigh in on this bill, which is exactly what happened,' Cox told reporters. 'He did not weigh in on this bill — I can only imagine what you would have written if he had.' Play Farm Merge Valley

Report of active shooter at Villanova University a ‘cruel hoax,' university president says
A 'cruel hoax' sent Villanova University students sheltering into place on the first day of orientation after a false report of an active shooter, the school's president said, prompting a massive response by local and federal law enforcement as they worked to secure the campus. No injuries were reported and no weapons were found, Peter M. Donohue, the university's president, said in a letter sent to the campus community and obtained by CNN. The first campus alert went out around 4:35 p.m. ET, during an opening mass, which was set to be followed by a family picnic. 'ACTIVE SHOOTER on VU campus. Move to secure location. Lock/barricade doors. More info to follow,' read an alert on the campus website. The anonymous report indicated there was an active shooter in the Charles Widger School of Law and claimed at least one person was wounded, school and police officials said. 'Panic and terror ensued' after the report, Donohue said in the letter. Police and fire officials swarmed the area of the law school, with some armed officers on the roof, as they worked to clear buildings and look for a possible shooter or victims, video from CNN affiliate WPVI showed. None were found. 'While it is a blessing and relief, I know today's events have shaken our entire community,' Donohue said in the letter sent just after 6 p.m. He apologized to first-year students and their families. 'This is not the introduction to Villanova that I had hoped for you,' he said. Authorities seek to prosecute person responsible New student orientation and registration began Thursday and is scheduled to go until Saturday, while classes begin Monday, according to the school's academic calendar. The reports came hours after the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga sent an active-shooter alert and the campus went on lockdown. Police later said the authorities found 'no evidence of a threat.' Authorities are investigating the Tennessee incident as a possible case of swatting, a law enforcement source told CNN. Swatting is a dangerous criminal hoax where a false report is made to police with the express purpose of luring them to a location, where they are led to believe a horrific crime such as a mass shooting, an imminent bombing, or hostage taking has been committed or is in progress. This can result in a forceful response from local police and SWAT teams, who have no way to know the call is a hoax. Swatting has been on the FBI's radar for nearly two decades, and gained notoriety after high-profile celebrities like Ashton Kutcher, Justin Bieber and Kim Kardashian became victims. In a 2008 assessment of the 'new phenomenon,' the FBI said a group of recently convicted swatters were motivated by 'bragging rights and ego, versus any monetary gain,' noting group members 'did it because they could.' Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said he directed state police to 'use every tool at our disposal' to find the person responsible for the swatting incident. 'I know today was every parent's worse nightmare, and every student's biggest fear,' Shapiro said in an X post. 'I am profoundly grateful no one was hurt, and thankful to all members of law enforcement who ran towards reports of danger to keep Pennsylvanians safe.' Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer echoed Shapiro's sentiments. 'My office, Investigation Division, the FBI, will all work to try to get to the bottom of who might have done this,' Stollsteimer said during a news conference Thursday. 'We will track you down if it's the last thing we do.' Villanova is a private Catholic university in the suburbs of Philadelphia and is the alma mater of Pope Leo XIV. This story has been updated with additional information. CNN's Josh Campbell, Danny Freeman and Amanda Musa contributed to this report.
