The question is: Did Brown University acquiesce under pressure from far-left human rights groups to disable their CCTV systems, in advance of the mass shooting on campus?
As originally reported in August 2025 {SOURCE}, a group of far-left human rights advocates sent a letter to 150 U.S. colleges and universities asking them to disable the CCTV systems to protect “free expression and academic freedom across the country,” because “the Trump administration has launched an aggressive campaign against US academic institutions.”
The motive for the request to disable CCTV systems as stated: “Right now these tools are facilitating the identification and punishment of student protesters, undermining activists’ right to anonymity––a right the Supreme Court has affirmed as vital to free expression and political participation.” {SOURCE}
The letter from ‘Fight For The Future‘ (August, 2025) came after an earlier campaign by the same group seeking to stop the use of facial recognition cameras on college campuses. {SOURCE}
The Brown University President and school officials have been giving ridiculous answers to questions about the 800 cameras on the campus and the fact that no current footage exists of the shooter walking around inside the campus or inside the buildings therein.
The question is really a simple one. Did Brown University follow the requests of the hardline leftist groups who asked the school to disable the functioning of their surveillance network in order to protect the identity of the students on campus?
Obviously, this potential explanation would answer a lot of seemingly irreconcilable questions about the lack of surveillance footage available to local law enforcement, state police and FBI investigators. The only current footage of the shooter is from privately owned doorbell cameras and CCTV systems from businesses near the campus. No footage of the shooter on campus has been identified.
Against the factual evidence of Brown University receiving requests to disable their surveillance cameras, someone needs to ask the right question.
Everyone can see the potential ramifications here, along with the severity of the legal risk Brown University would be facing. Perhaps that dynamic is what’s behind the twisted wording and explanations coming from university and local officials.
A targeted political assassination of a young, female conservative vice-chair of the Brown University Republican group takes place. The ideological shooter benefits from the lack of school security and surveillance. That lack of security was intentionally created by ideological school administrators and officials bowing to pressure from ideologically aligned leftist organizations.
If accurate, this is quite a scenario on many levels; including a considerable legal risk, intentional and willful negligence, and massive lawsuit exposure in the aftermath of two deaths and 9 injured students. Brown University has an $8 billion endowment.
As everyone understands, a University like Brown creates a local economy unto itself. College towns like Providence, Rhode Island are college towns for a reason. The college is a considerable foundation for the economic wealth of the community. As an outcome, the local officials would be in full protection mode over their economic foundation. In this case, there are billions at stake.
Perhaps this dynamic explains all the conflicts and seemingly bizarre statements by local and university officials. WATCH:

These people need to rot in hell.
Or, at least be hung first, after a fair trial!
Hate to be that guy, but it is “hanged” not “hung”. Hung is when you put your coat on a rack a few minutes ago.

I would be mildly appeased if these scoundrels were hung on a coat rack at this juncture. It’s a step up from sternly worded letters.
Yeah but Huong is my wife’s first name…Bottom line, exhume Roy Bean, hang/hung them today and we’ll have the trial tomorrow.
Exactly! They need to feel some physical earthly pain before their souls get fried.

Who is Mustapha Kharboush?
https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/2001028141851013528?s=20
Karboush looks like he could be a person of interest. He looks dumpy and rotund, like someone who’d hang at a donut shop, as one suggested.
Sweet, pink-cheeked female face, and big butt and fat thighs, too. Also, “their” writings re: intersectionality, Palestine liberation, etc. are just-so long winded and girly, IMO.
And he is a they/them/their nut-job, too.
Don’t we have to have a trial first?
These people need to
rot in hellbe publicly hung on the Providence town green.I disagree, killing these people would be an act of mercy and a grievous error. everyone involved in this horrific event from “foot soldier” protestors to human rights group middlemen, to billionaire liberal financiers and politicians, ANTIFA members and trans-terrorists need to be identified, arrested, tried, convicted and then jailed for life in a prison in the middle of Area 51 where they daily receive training and lessons on liberty, the constitution, economists like Hayek and von Mises, AND be forced into hard labor turning big rocks into little rocks. They should all also all be required to watch every President Trump speech continuously and any other conservative which will blow up their Trumpet Deranged minds. The torture would be far worse on them than death of any kind.

So it turns out the real domestic terror threat is NOT the heavily armed, right wing, white nationalists that Biden and others continuously “warned” were the #1 threat to Democracy in America, blah blah blah.
Brown U turned off the cameras to aid and protect their political allies (i.e. violent, left wing nut jobs) who have a monopoly on domestic terrorism in America.
The people will eventually demand cameras be placed everywhere. Probably even demand everyone have a ring camera too.
HELL NO!!! Not me! It has LONG been MORE than obvious, at least to me, that whenever it’s convenient to TPTB (SPIT!!!) the media which would show the TRUTH gets corrupted or totally eliminated going back to November of 1963 AD!!!
We don’t even own a cell phone, so no!
Possibly even Nose Ring Cameras…
😳 😆
Sue them for every penny they have.8 billion is just the down payment for their collaboration with the shooter.
Maybe he knew that there would be no cameras, and he would be shooting fish in a barrel and there would be no hard evidence.
There have to be consequences of a magnitude that will prevent woke administrations from ever doing it again.
I hope all the families sue them into bankrupcy! Let these, “schools” (I mean indoctrination centers!) go broke, with NO government taxpayer funding WHATSOEVER!!!
If Wyoming Catholic, TAC, Christendom College, as well as Hillsdale can offer MUCH better education for $0.00 from ANY government taxpayer funding, GO WITH THE BETTER RESULTS and stop wasting our taxes!!!
My mind drifts to wondering what about this girl was such a threat to “them”.
A Vice-President of a group of 20 college Republicans in an environment where they can have little to no impact on anything doesn’t seem like it is worth anyone’s time, on the face of it.
Yet, I’m compelled to consider she must have been identified as some kind of greater threat to “them” and their demonic agenda.
It’s just terrorism. Every murder is a message to the public: “if you talk or act in a way we don’t like, this is what happens to you.” That kind of stuff might work among organized crime syndicates, but all it does is piss me off.
Perhaps it’s a symbolic representation vs individual? Then again by what logic do murdering, thug, evil ideologues render their deeds? It’s for terror and fear. Justice is pending for so many who will not assimilate on this earthly plane to live and let live. So sad these university apparatchiks are so smug, blasé and enable the evil.
Charlie Kirk was taken from us for being a threat to “them”. This strong, brave, leader of a women followed in Charlie Kirks footsteps. She is a hero in my book…
They are run by Satan, she was run by Christ.
By virtue of Whose she was, she was most definitely a threat to them, and she most definitely is with her Lord and Savior, Jesus, right now.

Yes. Asking them questions is “attacking” them.

Boasberg will somehow get the case and say they have no standing. Wait for it….
I wish I could add the sarc tag.
They don’t need Boasberg, as they are already licated in leftist community and will have a tough enough time getting a conviction if they even locate the perpetrator. Especially with this investigative all star team.
Are possible fingerprints on spent shell casings beyond the comprehension of Providence’s LLEOs (liberal law enforcement officers)?
Fingerprints, like DNA, depend on whether or not the perpetrator is in a database.
If not then it’s of limited use, until a potential suspect is identified.
Lawsuit time.
And they’ll settle rather than face discovery and scrutiny.
If we had an FBI or a DOJ, they’re investigate the organisation that sent the letter as well as Brown U and each of their campus organisations.
Needless to say you are an idiot if you return as a student after the holidays and don’t transfer out of there. Sue for the return of the unspent portion of your $100,000 tuition.
The prestige of Brown is plummeting.
Hopefully the family and lawyers go for the full 8 billion, thus making it something they can’t settle.
I’d go for $100 Billion. My child’s life is more than any amount of stupid money.
And what about those various web pages “not found”.
The lawsuits will be settled out of court and all the plaintiffs will have to sign non-disclosure agreements.

Brown University and Rhode Island are playing COVERUP….
I have not seen much coverage about the class where students murdered was being taught by Rachel Friedberg, a Jewish professor who leads the school’s Judaic Studies program. In addition to Australia
a Jewish professor of nuclear physics at M.I.T. was murdered in his home…
while in Amsterdam families celebrating Hanukah were viscously attacked by Palestinian protesters and had to be surrounded by police to protect to name just a few. Coordinated? Imo very likely.
I believe the Brown professor’s name is Rachel Greenberg. So the review class’s subject was Judaic Studies which makes sense to target as the shooter, Mustapha Kharbouch, Brown ’27, studying anthropology etc under a female Trump-hating professor, proudly boasting on her social media site that she dreamed of seeing President Trump’s obituary. Ugh. How much did you say that a year at Brown U. costs? $80,000?
Yes. Costs the taxpayer $80,000.
Didn’t cost “Mustapha Karbouch” dick.
Surveillance footage from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus is monitored by the University of Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) and its Public Safety Emergency Communications (PSECC) center, which operates 24 hours a day. The footage is stored securely for at least 30 days and is accessible only to authorized personnel.
Only four specific entities are authorized to request and review surveillance footage:
1) the Offices of the General Council
2) Internal Audit
3) Human Resources
4) University police
Access to the footage is strictly limited to official investigations or purposes, and no individual or entity outside these authorized groups may access the data.
While the University has over 900 cameras monitored by at least two DCS employees 24/7, the monitoring is conducted with oversight to ensure compliance with privacy laws and ethical standards. The use of surveillance footage is restricted to safety and security purposes, and it cannot be used for unauthorized purposes such as monitoring living spaces or violating an individual’s reasonable expectation of privacy.

I read many of the indictments or statement of facts on how the FIB tracked down Jan 6 protestors. There was more effort, technology and resources deployed on any single person than this Brown case. They ‘catch’ who they want to.
The FBI is not in charge of the RI investigation.
There were also concerns surrounding the Charlie Kirk assassination involving university security failures.
https://www.police1.com/event-security/utah-college-where-kirk-was-shot-did-not-use-drones-had-6-campus-officers-monitoring-event-ap-investigation
The Utah college where conservative leader Charlie Kirk was assassinated lacked several key public safety measures and practices that have become standard safeguards for security at events around the country, an Associated Press review has found.
https://www.kuer.org/education/2025-09-30/utah-valley-university-where-charlie-kirk-was-shot-lacked-key-public-safety-tools
The university’s outdoor courtyard, where Kirk showed up on Sept. 10 to debate students, was surrounded by several tall buildings, leaving Kirk vulnerable. That was made all the more potent because campus police didn’t fly a drone to monitor rooftops or coordinate with local law enforcement to secure the event. It deployed only six officers from a force that was already small for a campus its size. There were no bag checks or metal detectors.
Again, that may all be true, but we should not be begging for surveillance. We should be demanding our 2a right to bear arms. Gun free zones are unconstitutional.
Get rid of these gun free zones and we won’t need to look at surveillance cameras to find the criminals ever again. They will be laying right there inside of the crime scene tape.
The lawyers will get most of their endowment on this. I hope the young ladies family gets every dime and this breaks them.
So trying to get my younger kids start their own plumbing empire.
I hope the parents of the deceased students and the injured students sue Brown U into oblivion over this – it will be interesting to see what comes up during the discovery process.
There won’t be a civil discovery process.
The suits will be settled quietly with no court proceedings.
Everyone involved will sign non-disclosure agreements which would bar them from divulging details to media or anyone else.
It’s how things like that work.

There’ll be discovery. No way Brown writes 8 figure checks unless forced. They’ll get a protective order so nothing in discovery is made public.
Unless they won’t. I wouldn’t sign anything for all their money.

I think it’s one group of bad actors with thirty four different names!
There is a big difference between installing security cameras for legitimate surveillance of the campus and spying on students. Much has been made about the many, many cameras at this university, yet so few vids and pics of this murderer exist. It would seem that most of Brown’s cameras had been devoted to spying, rather than security. But, this is completely understandable, because, like good Leftists, the Brown administration do not care about criminals. After all, it’t not the fault of the criminals that they are criminals, because society drove them to it … or some such BS. They don’t want to identify, nor prosecute criminals, nor have them serve jail time, so why would they devote a meaningful number of their cameras to security functionality? They wouldn’t; so why is everyone so surprised at this revelation?
They have no proper monitoring of the grounds, they undoubtedly would have the police de-funded if they had their way, they don’t have adequate security on campus, the school is a “gun free zone” (except when criminals are taking advantage of the lax security environment), they no doubt support Sorros-installed “prosecutors” and they do little more than clutch their pearls, when criminals take advantage of the campus conditions that they, themselves, have created.
If they were honest with us, I expect that they would admit having consoled themselves by telling themselves that in this incident, at least, the “right” person was gunned down, because all Conservatives and especially DJT supporters deserve to die … and these Leftist “intellectuals” genuinely believe this! Yet, we continue to send our children to these people to be abused and brain washed. These radical Marxist indoctrination centers need to be de-funded immediately and we need to make better choices for our children’s education. NEVER AGAIN, should one of these radical institutions receive so much as a nickel of the tax payer’s money!
Brown University and any many others are overtly supportive of leftist political violence. Are conservative parents sending their kids to these places, or are most parents, radicals.

From day one every time the Brown Uni President speaks she looks like she’s lying, to me at least.
The mayor and police chief play poker just a tad bit better. But not by much.
How did the shooter know where to go? When to be there? Who would be there? Who on the Brown University payroll may have been involved feeding the targeting information into the leftist blob that led the assassin to their magic moment? Who assigned the room in that building to the group of kids meeting there? Who else knew about it? Are we to believe only outsiders were involved in the targeting? Are we to believe the assassin had magic powers or was just a really good guesser? Are we to believe the kids were provided a room in a building that was perfect for preserving the anonymity of an assassin who apparently knew exactly where to go and exactly when to be there?
Unless mitigating information comes forth to the contrary, it appears the kids may have been provided a room in a building that was apparently perfect for preserving the anonymity of an infiltrating assassin who apparently knew exactly where to go and exactly when to be there.
I hope Brown University is sued into oblivion. Make them suffer and put them out of business. Just don’t have the jurisdiction in Rhode Island. Make it say, Alabama where Miss Cook’s family lives.
The murder of Ella Cook, a beautiful young conservative Christian woman, also a leader in the young republican community, is enraging, heartbreaking, emotional.
Everyone is assuming that she was targeted (she clearly was) due to the fact that she is a conservative; I would be more likely to believe that she was targeted due to her known Christian beliefs, especially if the shooter is the “Palestinian” currently being referenced in the news. Who also appears to be a palestinian willingly practicing sexual immorality.
Just like with Charlie, people resent having their sin pointed out, we live in an upside down time in which the only sin is to name sin.
I’m reminded of the incident at Oberlin College, one of the most quintessential woke colleges, that happened over a decade ago. Some black students were caught shoplifting at a bakery in town that had served the community for decades. Some university officials threw down the R-bomb at the bakery, there may have been a written statement condemning it, there were demonstrations at the bakery that were apparently approved by one or more administration figures. Oberlin ended up getting the pants sued off of them.
This of course is orders of magnitudes more serious.
Human Rights is a euphemism for Bolshevik
These days, Wokeshevik might be more apt.
And using term ‘far-left’ is meaningless these days. A more accurate depiction of these degenerates and remorseless sickos – might be ‘militants’.
At the last 90 sec of today’s press conference someone referred to as Rinaldo asked about camera being off due to sanctuary policies https://www.youtube.com/live/dMxjeaLWZMM?si=WMcuup6SNEUeBnOF
Some people on that campus know who the shooter was…… they won’t speak up because they are afraid of ????? If they don’t it won’t be the last shooting… the college leadership MUST be held accountable in a way that makes other Campus leadership know they are going to deal with reality.. not DEI land…
The Brown president isn’t exactly asking students to come forward & discuss their experiences last Saturday.
It’s final exam time, & really by Friday, 12/19 most will be done with tests.
The kids will want to get the heck out of there, & probably stay away until the 2nd week in January. At least.
So the Prov. Police & Brown Administration are playing for time.
They need until this weekend to stumble along, & the trail goes cold. That’s when the FBI will be called in.
Parents will keep their kids home from Brown as long as possible, until they, or the students can’t stand it any longer!
Good time for a ‘rich-nik’ family Florida vacation…
Right to protest
Right to free speech
Right to anonymity??????
Pure and evil Kray, protecting Tranny’s & Muslims it is.
Wow. No wonder Brown and the police are behaving in such a sketchy manner.
If so did was the assassin part of the letter ? Did the assassin know that the cameras were disabled ? Did the disabling of the cameras encourage and facilitate the political assassination ?
The assassin apparently knew exactly where to go.
The assassin apparently knew exactly what time to be there.
The assassin apparently knew exactly who would be there.
The assassin apparently knew exactly how to infiltrate and exfiltrate the premises.
How did the assassin know this, if true?
How was the perfect room assignment made? What administrative process, policies and personnel were involved in this, if at all? Was the assassin really such a clairvoyant lone genius?
Sometimes, a deserted science building is a good place to study, but still be able to talk quietly.
I think we know the answer!
The calls are coming from inside the house. I’ll bet the complaints were with a wink and a nod, much like the EPAs Sue and Settle grift.
Brown does not have 800 cameras, they have thousands. This from RI Attorney Chas Calenda, who posted same on his Facebook page.
Attorney Calenda secured an acquittal for a client whom Brown Police accused of felonies. During trial, Brown Police officials stated they had thousands of cameras on campus.
This statement was taken as tacit and entered into court evidence, which Attorney Calenda posted on his page, scroll down you’ll find it.
Brown claims its cameras were off? How do we know that’s true? How do we know anything these people say is true?
President Cristina Paxson enjoys a salary of more than three million dollars a year. Three million. That doesn’t include the mansion, the car, and likely the live in cook, does it?
For what? For sending conservative kids home in body bags?
Brown stole millions from our family, amidst a background of suspicious deaths. When we asked Browns presidents, plural, about this, they claimed they didn’t take anything from us. In other words, they lied.
Apparently, lying comes easy to this communist crime syndicate which operates under the aegis of a university and which now controls the formerly reputable Rhode Island Hospital.
Latest press conference, RI Senator Weldon Shitehouse scolded citizens for expressing their theories of the crime and told them to stop stating conspiracy theories, and be quiet. Apparently the good senator is nervous about something, putting himself right into the crime, as they say.
The more these people talk, the more they implicate themselves.
‘. . . amidst a background of suspicious deaths.’
How far back do these deaths go?
How many?
What types of deaths?
Do you mind sharing a few more details?
0.o
You have to wonder how many people at Brown knew the cameras and security system was shut off and didn’t say anything to anyone.
Their safety was at risk too.
Do the camera feeds automatically go to the police station for their monitoring or is it a closed system for college employees only?
Is there an outside contractor who maintains the camera system to make sure it’s working properly or does someone do this in house?
It is foolish to have a college conservative/republican club that holds their meetings on campus.
OK I get it. Apparently they wanted to thwart ICE raids. But I think that perhaps we are being led down the primrose path here. I couldn’t be happier if surveillance was halted forever! Illegal aliens or no, stop all this big brother surveillance already!
Instead of complaining why CCTV was stopped, as if we need it reinstated, why don’t we address the larger issue here? Gun-free zones on school campuses are unconstitutional! Let’s reverse that instead!
How about us law abiding citizens protect ourselves via 2A to stop these senseless school massacres once and for all?
FAFO
Good catch, many of us asked the same question. I wondered myself if some woke university official disabled cameras to thwart ICE and protect illegally entering migrant. Explains why they’ve been relying on private residence doorbell cams.
Now we have documentation for support. Maybe not such a crazy conspiracy theory after all.
Every single Marxist education facility should be starved of tax payers money and severely investigated and prosecuted for the crimes they commit and allow foreign students to commit.
We can only hope the victims get all tangible assets including the 8 Billion in endowment, the campus buildings and grounds, and any additional real estate not on campus therefore completely putting Brown University out of business. What a MESSAGE that would send to woke, Progressive-Marxist academia in all US states and territories! It would have a lot to say about accountability and responsibility and student safety first.
Maybe facial recognition cameras have been turned off for months now to prevent ICE from accessing
Can you imagine if this crime was being facilitated to, like the Hollywood Double Homicide is?
I bet if the victim was the Kennedy grandson that went to brown, the joint would be swarming with multiple agencies and they would be tearing up creation until they found out who, what and why.
He was an idiot. He went to Providence College. I assume you’re talking about Patrick Kennedy. The Kennedy’s of RI are the Gilbane family. They’re mostly pretty nice though.
It was JFK Jr., he went to Brown Law. I was thinking it was Caroline’s son that went to Brown, he was Yale/Harvard.
We don’t have a Law School. JFK Jr did go to Brown before he was unalived. Why do you speak of things you don’t know?
John Kennedy Jr. went to Brown. Law or otherwise. I do apologize I got the details incorrect on the example of “if the person that had been killed at Brown was a Kennedy, this investigation would look like the Hollywood double homicide”. And make no mistake it would.
Since you seem to have extensive knowledge of RI and or skin in that game, hopefully you will use it to raise some hell about the stupidity going on.
Merry Christmas
