Utah legislative leaders unanimously adopted a resolution Friday approving a $5 million settlement for claims related to the death of first-year University of Utah international student Zhifan Dong.
An extensive report released by the university in May detailed many offers by U. employees to help Dong and Wang, but the two largely declined or did not respond to offers of assistance. It also acknowledges mistakes and missed opportunities by university staff and police.
In the report, campus law enforcement officials called the case a complex mix of behavioral health challenges, alleged intimate partner violence, missing persons, housing staff shortages and a criminal investigation.
