🚨 Hazing Lawyers for Pawnee County, Nebraska — Legal Help for Fraternity & Sorority Abuse

Attorney 911 — Fighting for Pawnee County Hazing Victims Nationwide

Pawnee County Families: Your Child Was Tortured. We Will Make Them Pay.

Hazing isn’t “tradition.” It’s not “brotherhood.” It’s not “team bonding.”

It’s abuse. It’s assault. It’s torture.

And in Pawnee County, Nebraska, it’s happening right now at colleges, fraternities, and student organizations near you.

We are Attorney 911 — the law firm currently suing Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston for $10 million after a student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure. The same fraternities operate at colleges near Pawnee County. The same negligence exists at Pawnee County institutions. And we will fight for Pawnee County families with the same fury we’re bringing to court right now.

If your child was hazed in Pawnee County — whether at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, marching band, ROTC, or any student group — you have legal rights. And we are the attorneys who will enforce them.

🚨 This Is Happening Near Pawnee County Right Now

The Same Hazing. The Same Fraternities. The Same Negligence.

This isn’t just a Houston problem. This is an America problem. And it’s happening in Nebraska.

Pi Kappa Phi, the fraternity we’re suing in Houston, has 150+ chapters across America — including near Pawnee County. The same national organization that waterboarded a student in Texas oversees chapters in Nebraska.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE), another fraternity with a documented hazing death record, operates at universities near Pawnee County. They’ve paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths. They’re still hazing students today.

Universities near Pawnee County have the same oversight failures as University of Houston. They know hazing happens. They have the power to stop it. They choose not to — until someone gets hospitalized or dies.

And when it happens, they say the same thing:

“We’re shocked. We had no idea. This isn’t who we are.”

But we know who they are. They’re the institutions that let torture happen on their watch. They’re the organizations that prioritize reputation over safety. They’re the adults who failed your child.

And we are the attorneys who will make them answer.

🔥 What We’re Fighting Right Now — The $10 Million Case That Shows Pawnee County What’s Possible

Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi & University of Houston — $10 Million Lawsuit (Filed November 21, 2025)

The Victim: Leonel Bermudez — a young man who accepted a bid to join Pi Kappa Phi at University of Houston. He wasn’t even enrolled at UH yet. He was a “ghost rush” — a transfer student expected to enroll for Spring 2026.

What Happened:
For weeks, Bermudez was subjected to systematic abuse disguised as “pledging.” He was:

• Waterboarded with a garden hose — simulated drowning, a form of torture
• Forced to do 500+ squats, 100+ pushups, bear crawls, 100-yard crawls — until his muscles broke down
• Struck with wooden paddles — physical assault with weapons
• Forced to eat milk, hot dogs, and peppercorns until vomiting — then made to keep running through his own vomit
• Threatened with expulsion if he stopped — coercion and intimidation
• Another pledge lost consciousness during a workout — they kept going

The Result:
On November 3, 2025, Bermudez collapsed after being forced to exercise past the point of physical exhaustion. He crawled up the stairs when he got home. The next day, he couldn’t move. His mother rushed him to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with severe rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure. He spent four days fighting for his life.

The Response:

• Pi Kappa Phi closed the chapter immediately — but only after the hospitalization, and just days before the lawsuit was filed. They knew what was coming.
• University of Houston called the conduct “deeply disturbing” — but they owned the fraternity house where the torture occurred.
• No one apologized. No one took responsibility. They just planned their comeback.

Our Response:
On November 21, 2025, we filed a $10 million lawsuit against:

• Pi Kappa Phi National
• The local chapter
• The housing corporation
• University of Houston (they owned the house)
• The fraternity president, pledgemaster, and multiple members
• A former member and his spouse (hazing occurred at their home)

This is the fight we’re in right now. And this is the fight we’ll bring to Pawnee County.

⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Pawnee County Hazing Victim

Pawnee County Families: You Have More Power Than You Think

Hazing is illegal in Nebraska. It’s a crime. And it’s civilly actionable — meaning you can sue for money damages.

Nebraska Hazing Law (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 28-311.06)

Hazing is a Class II misdemeanor in Nebraska, punishable by:

• Up to 6 months in jail
• Up to $1,000 fine

But Nebraska law also says:

“It is not a defense to a charge of hazing that the person hazed consented to the hazing.”

This means: Even if your child “agreed” to participate, it’s still illegal. Consent is not a defense.

Civil Lawsuits for Pawnee County Hazing Victims

You can sue for:

• Medical expenses — hospital bills, therapy, future treatment
• Lost wages — time missed from work
• Pain and suffering — physical and emotional trauma
• Punitive damages — to punish egregious conduct
• Wrongful death — if hazing caused a fatality

Who You Can Sue in Pawnee County:

• The local fraternity/sorority chapter
• The national organization (they have deep pockets)
• The university or college (they have oversight responsibility)
• Individual members (they can be held personally liable)
• Alumni or advisors (if they facilitated hazing)

Our firm is currently suing ALL of these entities in our $10 million case. The same strategy applies to Pawnee County.

🏆 What Pawnee County Families Can Win — Multi-Million Dollar Precedents
