ENGLISH

🚨 Hazing in Hagåtña: Legal Rights and Justice for Victims

Hagåtña Families: Your Child Was Betrayed. We Can Help.

Hazing is not “tradition.” It’s not “brotherhood.” It’s not “building character.” It’s abuse. It’s assault. It’s a crime. And when it happens in Hagåtña, the same legal rights apply as anywhere in America.

At Attorney 911, we are currently fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston. We know how to hold fraternities, sororities, and universities accountable. Hagåtña families deserve the same aggressive representation.

If your child was hazed in Hagåtña—whether at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, marching band, or any student organization—you have legal rights. We can help.

What Is Hazing? The Reality in Hagåtña

Hazing in Hagåtña isn’t just “rough initiation.” It’s systematic abuse disguised as tradition. Our current case shows what hazing really looks like:

  • Waterboarding with garden hoses – Simulated drowning, a form of torture
  • Forced to do 500 squats until collapse – Causing rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) and kidney failure
  • Struck with wooden paddles – Physical assault with weapons
  • Forced to eat until vomiting – Then made to run sprints while in distress
  • Sleep deprivation – Forced to drive members at all hours, causing exhaustion
  • Psychological torture – Carrying sexual objects, being hog-tied, threats of expulsion

This happened in Houston. It happens in Hagåtña too.

Why Hagåtña Families Need Legal Help

1. Universities and Fraternities Will Protect Themselves, Not Your Child

When hazing is exposed, institutions don’t apologize—they cover it up. In our case:

  • Pi Kappa Phi closed the chapter days before the lawsuit to distance themselves
  • The University of Houston, which owns the fraternity house, claimed they were “deeply disturbed” but had known about hazing risks for years
  • No one took real responsibility until they were sued

Hagåtña universities and Greek organizations will do the same. They will not protect your child unless forced to.

2. Hazing Causes Real, Lasting Harm

Hazing isn’t harmless fun. It causes:

  • Physical injuries – Broken bones, burns, rhabdomyolysis, kidney failure, alcohol poisoning
  • Psychological trauma – PTSD, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts
  • Academic disruption – Dropped classes, lost scholarships, delayed graduation
  • Financial burdens – Medical bills, therapy costs, lost wages

Our client was hospitalized for four days with kidney failure. Your child’s injuries are just as real.

3. The Law Is on Your Side

Under Guam law and federal civil rights protections, hazing victims have strong legal claims:

  • Assault and battery – For physical abuse
  • Intentional infliction of emotional distress – For psychological torture
  • Negligence – Universities and fraternities have a duty to protect students
  • Premises liability – If hazing happened on university-owned property
  • Civil rights violations – If the university failed to act despite knowing about hazing

Consent is NOT a defense. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the law says they cannot consent to abuse.

Who Is Liable for Hazing in Hagåtña?

When hazing happens, everyone involved can be held accountable:

Defendant Why They’re Liable
Local Chapter Organized and conducted the hazing
National Fraternity/Sorority Knew about hazing risks but failed to prevent it
University Owns fraternity houses; failed to supervise Greek life
Chapter Officers Leaders who directed or allowed hazing
Individual Members Participated in or witnessed hazing and did nothing
Alumni/Hosts Allowed hazing at their homes
Insurance Companies Provide coverage for institutional liability

In our case, we’re suing 10 defendants, including the national fraternity, the university, and individual members. Hagåtña families can do the same.

What Can You Recover for Hazing Injuries?

Hazing victims and their families may be entitled to compensation for:

Economic Damages

  • Medical bills – Hospital stays, ER visits, therapy, future treatment
  • Lost wages – Time missed from work or internships
  • Educational costs – Tuition, lost scholarships, delayed graduation
  • Rehabilitation – Physical therapy, mental health treatment

Non-Economic Damages

  • Pain and suffering – Physical and emotional trauma
  • Mental anguish – PTSD, anxiety, depression
  • Loss of enjoyment of life – Inability to participate in normal activities
  • Disfigurement – Scars, permanent injuries

Punitive Damages

  • Punishment for egregious conduct – When hazing is extreme or intentional
  • Deterrence for others – To prevent future hazing

Recent hazing cases have resulted in multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts, including:

  • $10.1 million – Stone Foltz (Bowling Green State University, Pi Kappa Alpha)
  • $6.1 million – Maxwell Gruver (LSU, Phi Delta Theta)
  • $110+ million – Timothy Piazza (Penn State, Beta Theta Pi)

Hagåtña families can recover the same.

What to Do If Your Child Was Hazed in Hagåtña

1. Seek Medical Attention Immediately

  • Even if injuries seem minor, get checked by a doctor
  • Rhabdomyolysis, alcohol poisoning, and head injuries can be life-threatening
  • Medical records are critical evidence

2. Preserve All Evidence

  • Photos/videos – Injuries, hazing activities, locations
  • Texts/social media – Group chats, messages about hazing
  • Witnesses – Names and contact info of other victims or bystanders
  • Documents – Pledge manuals, schedules, anything given to your child

Do NOT delete anything. Do NOT post about the incident on social media.

3. Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity, Sorority, or University Alone

  • They will try to control the narrative
  • They will minimize the harm
  • They will pressure you to stay silent
  • Anything you say can be used against you

4. Contact an Attorney Immediately

  • Statutes of limitations apply – You have limited time to file a claim
  • Evidence disappears fast – Texts get deleted, witnesses forget
  • Insurance companies will lowball you – They want to pay as little as possible

We offer FREE consultations. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 today.

Frequently Asked Questions for Hagåtña Families

1. My child was hazed but isn’t sure if it was “bad enough” to sue. Should we still contact an attorney?

Yes. Many hazing victims downplay their injuries out of shame or loyalty to the organization. You don’t have to decide alone. We offer free consultations to evaluate your case.

2. The fraternity said my child “consented” to the hazing. Does that mean we can’t sue?

No. Under the law, consent is not a defense to hazing. Even if your child agreed to participate, the organization is still liable for any harm caused.

3. The university says they didn’t know about the hazing. Can we still sue them?

Yes. Universities have a duty to supervise Greek life and student organizations. If they failed to monitor or ignored warning signs, they can be held liable.

4. My child is afraid of retaliation. What can we do?

We understand the fear of retaliation. We protect our clients’ identities and can take legal action against anyone who intimidates or threatens them.

5. How long do we have to file a lawsuit?

In most cases, you have 2 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim. Do not wait. Evidence disappears, and your rights expire.

6. How much does it cost to hire an attorney?

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis – you pay nothing unless we win your case.

7. Can we sue if the hazing happened off-campus?

Yes. Hazing is illegal on or off campus. If the university or fraternity was involved, they can still be held liable.

8. What if my child was an international student or not yet enrolled?

You can still sue. Hazing laws protect all students, including international students and prospective members.

Hagåtña Hazing Victims: You Are Not Alone

Hazing thrives in secrecy. The only way to stop it is to speak up.

Our client was hospitalized with kidney failure after being waterboarded and forced to do 500 squats. He was afraid to come forward. But his bravery is saving others.

Your child’s case can do the same.
