University of Arizona President Dr. Robert C. Robbins said the Pima County Attorney’s Office 'declined to move forward with charges.'
TUCSON, Ariz. — In a letter addressed to students and colleagues, University of Arizona President Dr. Robert C. Robbins detailed the steps university officials and campus police took"to address the threatening behavior from the former student" Murad Dervish, who shot and killed hydrology professor Dr. Thomas Meixner on campus Wednesday, Oct. 5.
"If we could have done better, we will acknowledge it and make changes," said Robbins."But I do believe it is important for you to know that the University took action in regard to the conduct directed toward Professor Meixner and others." According to the letter, university officials twice sought charges against Dervish with the Pima County Attorney's Office. The first attempt to seek charges came during the spring semester of this year. The second, in September.
