Texas State University responded quickly to expel a student who was caught on video blatantly mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The incident, which took place on Monday on the Texas State main campus, showed a young man mocking Kirk’s death in front of a group of mourners. As seen in the video, the student cursed at attendees, slapped his neck as though shot, said “Hi, I’m Charlie Kirk,” and spat on the ground near those attending the vigil.

The now-expelled student can also be heard saying, “He got hit in the neck B****,” and “F*** yo dead homie,” to the crowd before walking off.

Gov. Greg Abbott went on social media to call out the man in the video, demanding that Texas State take action, posting the video:

University President Kelly Damphousse agreed, publishing an initial statement:

Damphousse and TXST stood by their word. Roughly five hours after the initial statement from the university was posted, an update was published announcing that the student had been identified and expelled:

 

The incident at TXST follows a similar case at Texas Tech, where an 18-year-old was arrested and expelled after spouting off similar vitriol at another Kirk vigil before committing battery, as previously reported by The Dallas Express.

In the incident at Tech, Camryn Giselle Booker can be heard on video shouting, “F**k y’all homie dead, he got shot” before being taken into custody.

These expulsions and arrests at Texas’ colleges are part of a growing wave of consequences for students, professors, and even K–12 teachers in Texas who have mocked or minimized Kirk’s death online or in public. Additionally, the Texas Education Agency has said that it is reviewing complaints tied to comments about Kirk’s assassination.

Anyone who comes across inappropriate statements mocking or making jokes about the assassination of Kirk, in the realm of academia, can report it through the TEA’s Misconduct Reporting Portal.
