Hazing Victim Legal Representation in Apache County, Arizona

🚨 Hazing Is Happening in Apache County — And It Needs to Stop

Apache County families send their children to college expecting them to be safe. They trust universities, fraternities, and sororities to protect their students. But too often, that trust is betrayed.

Hazing is not tradition. It’s not bonding. It’s not “boys being boys.”

It is abuse. It is assault. It is torture. And it is happening right here in Apache County.

At Attorney 911, we are fighting this crisis nationwide — including right here in Apache County. We are currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston, where a student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure. This isn’t just happening in Texas — the same fraternities operate in Apache County. The same negligence exists at Apache County institutions. And Apache County families deserve the same aggressive legal representation.

If your child has been hazed in Apache County, we can help. Call us now at 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free, confidential consultation.

💡 Apache County Case Study: What Happened in Houston Could Happen Here

In November 2025, our client Leonel Bermudez was hospitalized with severe rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure after being hazed at Pi Kappa Phi fraternity at the University of Houston. He was:

  • Waterboarded with a garden hose
  • Forced to do 500 squats and 100 pushups
  • Struck with wooden paddles
  • Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to keep running
  • Hospitalized for 4 days with kidney failure

This is not just a Texas problem. This is happening in Apache County too.
