Allegations of an assault at a Turning Point USA event are being challenged by the conservative youth organization, with witnesses, video evidence, and a police report failing to corroborate the accuser’s claim, according to an internal investigation and legal statements.
Accuser’s Claims vs. Internal Investigation
A former Rutgers University student who says she previously volunteered with the group alleged she was assaulted at a July TPUSA chapter event. However, the organization stated it found no evidence to support her account. A legal representative for Turning Point USA told media outlets that while multiple witnesses, text messages, and videos were reviewed as part of the investigation, the accuser declined to participate in the inquiry on four separate occasions.
Additionally, the room where the alleged incident occurred was privately booked and not part of the official TPUSA event space, the group emphasized. Police have not released updates on their investigation.
No Sexual Assault Allegations in Police Report
TPUSA noted that the police report filed by the accuser did not contain any mention of sexual assault—a discrepancy that the organization says further undermines the claims. They also revealed that the male student accused in the alleged incident was removed from future TPUSA events following an unrelated issue.
“At no point were any TPUSA staff involved,” the group stated. “Had these allegations been brought to our attention during the event, we would have acted immediately to assist in engaging law enforcement.”
Recent Attacks on TPUSA
The organization also highlighted a recent string of unrelated physical assaults against its representatives and volunteers at other campuses, including incidents at the University of Texas at Tyler and the University of New Mexico. In one case, a man was arrested after allegedly striking a TPUSA field representative and students with a cane.
Turning Point USA reiterated its commitment to student safety while pushing back against what it describes as unsubstantiated claims that could damage its reputation.
