Utah State University barred Ayoola Ajayi, who is in jail on suspicion of kidnapping and murdering Mackenzie Lueck, from its campus after a theft investigation, according to documents from the school.
The campus police reports also describe Ajayi, a Nigerian immigrant, as overstaying his visa and perhaps being homeless. When USU police booked Ajayi into the Cache County jail in 2012 on suspicion of misdemeanor theft, officers notified both Immigration and Customs Enforcement and a Nigerian consulate.
“This letter is to inform you that if you feel you need to visit our campus,” wrote Eric R. Olsen, the associate vice president for student services to Ajayi on Aug.
