Hazing Victims in Hart County, Georgia: Your Rights, Your Recovery
🚨 Hazing Happens in Hart County — And It’s Not Just “Tradition”
If your child has been hazed at a Hart County high school, college, or university, you’re not alone. Hazing isn’t harmless fun—it’s abuse, assault, and sometimes even torture. And if it’s happened to your family, you have legal rights to hold those responsible accountable.
At Attorney 911, we’re actively fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi fraternity and the University of Houston—proving that institutions know about hazing and fail to stop it. The same fraternities, sororities, and organizations operate in Hart County, and we’re here to make sure they pay when they hurt our kids.
If your child was hazed in Hart County—whether at a local high school, a nearby college, or a university—we can help.
🔥 What Is Hazing? (And Why It’s Illegal in Georgia)
Hazing isn’t just “rough initiation.” It’s any activity that endangers mental or physical health for the purpose of joining a group. Under Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 16-5-61), hazing is a misdemeanor—and if it causes serious injury or death, it can be a felony.
Examples of Hazing in Hart County (And Beyond):
✔ Physical abuse – Beatings, paddling, forced exercise to exhaustion (like our client who was hospitalized after 500 squats)
✔ Forced consumption – Alcohol, food, or non-food items (like the UH student forced to drink until he vomited)
✔ Psychological torture – Waterboarding (yes, fraternities in Georgia do this), sleep deprivation, humiliation
✔ Dangerous stunts – Blindfolded activities, extreme weather exposure, being left in unsafe conditions
✔ Sexual humiliation – Forced nudity, carrying sexual objects, degrading acts
If your child experienced any of this in Hart County, they were hazed—and they have legal rights.
💔 The Devastating Consequences of Hazing in Hart County
Hazing doesn’t just leave physical scars—it leaves lifelong trauma. Our client was hospitalized for four days with rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) and kidney failure after being forced to do extreme exercises. Other victims have suffered:
✅ Permanent injuries – Broken bones, internal damage, brain trauma
✅ Psychological trauma – PTSD, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts
✅ Academic setbacks – Missed classes, dropped grades, lost scholarships
✅ Financial burdens – Medical bills, therapy costs, lost wages
✅ Wrongful death – Too many families in Georgia have lost children to hazing
Hart County families deserve justice. We won’t let these institutions get away with it.
⚖️ Who Can Be Held Liable for Hazing in Hart County?
Hazing isn’t just the fault of the individuals involved—institutions enable it. In our $10 million case, we’re suing:
✔ The local fraternity/sorority chapter – Directly responsible for the abuse
✔ The national organization – Knew about hazing and failed to stop it
✔ The university/college – Owns the property, has a duty to protect students
✔ Individual members – Those who planned, participated, or allowed it
✔ House corporations & alumni – If hazing happened at their property
If your child was hazed in Hart County, we’ll identify every responsible party—and make them pay.
