Lawsuits hit Brown University last week in Rhode Island Superior Court, claiming the school dropped the ball on campus security during a deadly shooting. Unnamed plaintiffs say Brown's negligence led to severe injuries from the attack that killed two students and heard nine others back on December 13th. The shooter, 48-year-old Claudio Navez-Balente, burst into a study session in an academic building gunning down 19-year-old sophomore. Ella Cook, an 18-year-old freshman, McCommat Aziz Umarassikov. He had a pass connection to someone from his school days in Portugal during the 1990s. Brown's responding by reviewing the complaints carefully, but they're staying tight-lipped out of respect for the plaintiff's privacy. Meanwhile, the suits point to a custodian who tipped off security about the gunman scoping out the building beforehand, yet no one followed up. Right after the chaos, the university president put campus police on leave for full security
