Hazing Lawyers in Manu’a District: Protecting Victims of Fraternity & Sorority Abuse

🚨 Hazing Happens in Manu’a District — And It’s Illegal

If you or your child has been a victim of hazing at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, or other student organization in Manu’a District, you are not alone. Hazing is a serious and often illegal form of abuse that can lead to severe physical injury, psychological trauma, and even death. Attorney 911 is currently fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston, and we are ready to bring the same aggressive representation to Manu’a District families.

🔴 What Is Hazing?

Hazing includes any dangerous, humiliating, or abusive activity required for membership in a group. Common forms of hazing in Manu’a District include:

• Physical abuse (beatings, paddling, forced exercise to exhaustion)
• Forced consumption (alcohol, food, or non-food substances until vomiting)
• Psychological torture (waterboarding, sleep deprivation, humiliation)
• Sexual abuse (forced nudity, inappropriate touching, sexual acts)
• Servitude (forced errands, cleaning, or driving for members)
• Exposure to extreme conditions (cold, heat, or confined spaces)

Hazing is not “tradition” — it’s assault. And in Manu’a District, it’s against the law.

🏥 The Dangers of Hazing: What Happened in Houston Could Happen in Manu’a District

In November 2025, Attorney 911 filed a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity and the University of Houston after a student, Leonel Bermudez, was hospitalized with severe rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure due to extreme hazing.

📌 What Happened to Leonel Bermudez?

• Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
• Forced to do 500+ squats and 100+ pushups until he collapsed
• Struck with wooden paddles
• Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to lie in his own vomit
• Another pledge lost consciousness during a workout — fraternity members ignored it
• Result: 3 nights, 4 days in the hospital with acute kidney failure

💡 The same fraternities and sororities operate in Manu’a District. The same risks exist here.

⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Hazing Victim in Manu’a District

1. Hazing Is Illegal in American Samoa

While American Samoa follows U.S. federal law and some state laws, hazing is a crime under:

• Federal civil rights laws (if the victim was targeted based on race, gender, or other protected class)
• American Samoa’s criminal code (assault, battery, reckless endangerment)
• University policies (most schools in Manu’a District have strict anti-hazing rules)

📌 Consent is NOT a defense. Even if a student “agreed” to participate, hazing is still illegal.

2. Who Can Be Held Liable?

If your child was hazed in Manu’a District, multiple parties may be responsible, including:
✅ The local fraternity/sorority chapter (directly organized the hazing)
✅ The national organization (failed to supervise or enforce anti-hazing policies)
✅ The university or college (failed to prevent hazing despite knowing the risks)
✅ Individual members (participated in or facilitated the abuse)
✅ Alumni or advisors (allowed hazing at their homes or events)

💡 In our Houston case, we’re suing Pi Kappa Phi National, the local chapter, the university, and individual members — the same strategy applies in Manu’a District.

3. What Compensation Can You Recover?

Hazing victims in Manu’a District may be entitled to:

• Medical expenses (hospital bills, therapy, future treatment)
• Lost wages (if the victim missed work or school)
• Pain and suffering (physical and emotional trauma)
• Punitive damages (to punish the organization for reckless conduct)
• Legal fees (we work on contingency — you pay nothing unless we win)

📌 Precedent cases show hazing lawsuits can result in multi-million-dollar settlements.

💰 Hazing Lawsuit Settlements & Verdicts: Proof That Justice Is Possible

Hazing cases have resulted in millions of dollars in compensation for victims and their families. Here are some recent examples:

💡 These cases prove that hazing victims CAN win — and the same results are possible for Manu’a District families.

📋 What to Do If You or Your Child Was Hazed in Manu’a District

🚨 Step 1: Seek Medical Attention Immediately

• Go to the hospital or doctor — even if injuries seem minor
• Document everything (photos of injuries, medical records, witness statements)
• Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) and alcohol poisoning can be life-threatening

📱 Step 2: Preserve Evidence

• Save all communications (texts, GroupMe, Snapchat, Instagram DMs)
• Take screenshots of any social media posts about the hazing
• Write down everything you remember (who was involved, what happened, where it occurred)
• Do NOT delete anything — even if it’s embarrassing

🚫 Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Organization or Their Lawyers

• Fraternities/sororities will try to silence you with confidentiality agreements
• Universities will try to minimize liability and protect their reputation
• Insurance companies will lowball you — they don’t care about your well-being

📞 Step 4: Call Attorney 911 Immediately

• No upfront fees — we work on contingency (you pay nothing unless we win)
• We handle everything — from evidence gathering to negotiations to trial
• We travel to Manu’a District — for depositions, meetings, and court appearances
