🚨 Hazing in American Samoa: Your Legal Rights and How Attorney 911 Can Help

If your child has been hazed in American Samoa, you are not alone. The same fraternities, the same negligent universities, and the same culture of abuse that hospitalized a student in Houston are operating in American Samoa. And we are fighting back.

At Attorney 911, we are currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after a student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure. This same fraternity, and others like it, operate at universities near American Samoa. If your child has been hazed, we can help you fight back — no matter where in American Samoa you are.

🔥 The Hazing Crisis in American Samoa: What Families Need to Know

Hazing is not just a problem on the mainland — it happens at universities and colleges near American Samoa too. National fraternities like Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, and others have active chapters at institutions across the Pacific region. And just like at the University of Houston, these organizations engage in dangerous, illegal hazing rituals that can cause serious injury or death.

This is happening near American Samoa right now.

• Forced alcohol consumption — leading to alcohol poisoning
• Extreme physical punishment — 500 squats, bear crawls, paddling
• Waterboarding and simulated drowning — torture disguised as “tradition”
• Sleep deprivation and exhaustion — causing accidents and health crises
• Psychological abuse and humiliation — leading to PTSD and depression

These are not “pranks.” These are crimes.

⚠️ The University of Houston Case: A Warning for American Samoa Families

In November 2025, we filed a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after a student was hospitalized with severe rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure from hazing. Here’s what happened:

• Waterboarding with a garden hose — simulated drowning, a war crime
• Forced to do 500 squats and 100 pushups — until he couldn’t stand
• Struck with wooden paddles — physical abuse
• Forced to eat until vomiting — then made to keep running
• Hospitalized for 4 days — with life-threatening kidney failure

This didn’t happen in a vacuum. The same fraternity killed a student in 2017 at Florida State University. They had 8 years to fix their culture. They didn’t. Now another student is fighting for his life.

And this same fraternity — Pi Kappa Phi — has chapters at universities near American Samoa.

American Samoa parents: This could be your child.

💔 What Hazing Does to Victims

Hazing doesn’t just cause physical injuries — it destroys lives. Victims suffer:

Hazing can kill. Since 2000, there has been at least one hazing death every year in the United States. And for every death, dozens more are hospitalized or traumatized for life.

⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Hazing Victim in American Samoa

If your child has been hazed in American Samoa, you have legal rights. Hazing is illegal in most states, and it gives rise to civil liability regardless of location. This means you can sue for damages, even if the hazing occurred at a university near American Samoa.

Who Can Be Held Liable?

Hazing cases involve multiple defendants who can be held accountable:

In our University of Houston case, we are suing:

• Pi Kappa Phi National
• The local UH chapter
• The fraternity housing corporation
• The University of Houston (they owned the house)
• The UH Board of Regents
• Individual members and officers

We can do the same for American Samoa victims.

💰 How Much Is a Hazing Case Worth?

Hazing cases can result in multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts. Here are real examples:

These results are possible for American Samoa victims too.

What Damages Can You Recover?

Punitive damages are critical in hazing cases because they send a message that this conduct will not be tolerated.

🚨 What to Do If Your Child Has Been Hazed in American Samoa

If your child has been hazed, time is critical. Evidence disappears, memories fade, and statutes of limitations can expire. Here’s what to do immediately:

Step 1: Seek Medical Attention

• Even if injuries seem minor, get a full medical evaluation
• Document everything — bruises, pain, psychological symptoms
• Rhabdomyolysis and alcohol poisoning symptoms may be delayed

Step 2: Preserve All Evidence

✅ Photos/Videos: Take pictures of injuries, hazing locations, any items used
✅ Communications: Save all texts, GroupMe chats, Snapchats, emails, social media posts
✅ Witnesses: Get names and contact info of other pledges or witnesses
✅ Documents: Save pledge manuals, schedules, or any written materials
✅ Medical Records: Request copies of all hospital and doctor records

Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity or University Without a Lawyer

• They will try to control the narrative
• They will pressure you to sign documents
• They will intimidate witnesses

In most states, you have only 2 years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit.

• Evidence disappears — texts are deleted, witnesses forget
• Defendants destroy records — fraternities and universities will try to hide evidence
• Your rights expire — if you miss the deadline, you lose your right to sue forever

While American Samoa does not have its own four-year universities with Greek life, students from American Samoa often attend institutions in Hawaii, California, and other Pacific states where hazing is prevalent. These universities have active fraternities and sororities that engage in hazing:

Hawaii

• University of Hawaii at Manoa
  • Fraternities: Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, others
  • Sororities: Delta Gamma, Kappa Delta, others
• Hawaii Pacific University

📢 Our Message to Fraternities Near American Samoa

To Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, and all other fraternities with chapters near American Samoa:

We are watching.

The same legal strategies that secured $10 million verdicts nationwide apply to your chapters.

We know your corporate structures. We know your insurance policies. We know your hazing histories.

If you haze students near American Samoa, we will find every liable entity.

The Beta Nu chapter at University of Houston learned this the hard way. Your chapter could be next.

Waterboarding is torture. Forced exercise to collapse is abuse. Paddling is assault.

This ends now.
