Hazing Lawyers Serving Stonewall County, Texas – Attorney911

When “tradition” becomes torture, we hold them accountable.

If you or your child has been a victim of hazing in Stonewall County, Texas—whether at a fraternity, sorority, sports team, marching band, or any other student organization—you are not alone. The same national fraternities and universities that allowed a University of Houston student to be waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure operate right here in Stonewall County. And we are fighting them right now.

Attorney911 is currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston—and we are ready to bring the same aggressive legal representation to Stonewall County families.

🚨 The Hazing Crisis in Stonewall County: What Parents Need to Know

1. Hazing Happens in Stonewall County – And It’s Not “Harmless Tradition”

The same fraternities involved in deadly hazing cases nationwide—Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Kappa Sigma, Pi Kappa Alpha, and others—have active chapters at universities near Stonewall County. The same “traditions” that hospitalized our client in Houston exist right here in West Texas.

What hazing looks like in Stonewall County:

• Physical abuse: Forced exercise to exhaustion (500 squats, 100 pushups, bear crawls)
• Waterboarding & simulated drowning: Using hoses or buckets to torture pledges
• Forced consumption: Drinking until vomiting, eating until passing out
• Sleep deprivation: Late-night activities designed to break victims down
• Psychological torture: Humiliation, threats, and intimidation
• Sexual abuse: Forced nudity, carrying sexual objects, assault

This isn’t bonding. This is abuse.

2. Universities Near Stonewall County Are Failing Students

The University of Houston owned the fraternity house where our client was waterboarded. They had the power to stop it. They didn’t.

Universities near Stonewall County have the same responsibility—and the same failures:

• Texas Tech University (Lubbock) – Major Greek life presence
• Midwestern State University (Wichita Falls) – Active fraternities and sororities
• Angelo State University (San Angelo) – Greek organizations on campus
• West Texas A&M University (Canyon) – Known for strong Greek culture

These schools know hazing happens. They choose reputation over safety.

3. The Same National Fraternities Are Responsible

Pi Kappa Phi has 150+ chapters across America, including near Stonewall County. They had 8 years to fix their culture after Andrew Coffey died from forced drinking at Florida State in 2017. They did nothing.

In 2025, they waterboarded our client at UH. Now, they’re operating near Stonewall County.

These organizations have deep pockets—and we know how to make them pay.

⚖️ Your Legal Rights as a Stonewall County Hazing Victim

1. Texas Law Protects You – Consent Is NOT a Defense

Under Texas Education Code § 37.154, it is not a defense that a victim “consented” to hazing. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the law says:

“It is not a defense to prosecution that the person against whom the hazing was directed consented to or acquiesced in the hazing activity.”

The fraternity will try to blame the victim. The law says they’re wrong.

2. Who Can Be Sued in Stonewall County Hazing Cases?

We pursue every liable party—not just the students involved, but the institutions that enabled them.

We don’t just sue broke college kids. We go after the deep pockets that let this happen.

3. What Compensation Can Stonewall County Families Recover?

Hazing victims in Stonewall County can pursue:

✅ Medical expenses (hospital bills, therapy, future treatment)
✅ Lost wages (time missed from work or school)
✅ Pain and suffering (physical and emotional trauma)
✅ Punitive damages (to punish the organization for egregious conduct)
✅ Wrongful death (if hazing results in fatality)

Precedent cases show that hazing lawsuits win millions:

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

Your child’s case could be worth the same.

📋 What to Do If Your Child Was Hazed in Stonewall County

Step 1: Seek Medical Attention Immediately

• Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown), alcohol poisoning, and head injuries can be life-threatening.
• Document everything—photos of injuries, hospital records, witness statements.

Step 2: Preserve All Evidence

• DO NOT delete texts, GroupMe chats, or social media posts—these are critical evidence.
• Take screenshots of any communications about hazing.
• Write down everything you remember—dates, times, locations, names.

Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity or University Alone

• They will try to minimize the incident, blame your child, or pressure you into silence.
• Any statement you give can be used against you in court.

Step 4: Contact Attorney911 Immediately

• Texas has a 2-year statute of limitations—waiting could mean losing your right to sue.
• Evidence disappears fast—witnesses forget, messages get deleted, organizations cover their tracks.
• We offer free, confidential consultations—no upfront cost.

• Since 2000, there has been at least one hazing death every year in the U.S.
• 95% of hazing victims do not report it—meaning the problem is far worse than we know.

📜 Frequently Asked Questions About Stonewall County Hazing Cases

1. My child was hazed but “agreed to participate.” Can we still sue?

YES. Texas law explicitly states that consent is not a defense to hazing. Even if your child “agreed,” the organization is still liable.

2. The fraternity says it was just “a prank.” Is that a defense?

NO. Hazing is defined by the harm it causes, not the intent behind it. Waterboarding, forced exercise to exhaustion, and paddling are not “pranks”—they are assault, battery, and reckless endangerment.

3. We’re in Stonewall County. Can you still help us?

ABSOLUTELY. We serve hazing victims nationwide, including Stonewall County. We offer video consultations and travel to you for depositions and meetings.

4. How much is my Stonewall County hazing case worth?

Every case is different, but precedent shows that hazing lawsuits can recover millions:

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

Your child’s case could be worth the same.

5. What if the university says they didn’t know?

Universities have a legal duty to supervise Greek life. If they own the fraternity house (like UH did), they have premises liability. If they had prior hazing incidents (like UH did in 2017), they have institutional negligence.

We will prove they knew—or should have known.

6. How long do we have to file a lawsuit in Stonewall County?

Texas has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury cases. If your child was hazed, do not wait. Evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and your rights expire.

7. Will my child have to testify in court?

Most cases settle before trial. If your case does go to trial, we will prepare your child thoroughly and support them every step of the way.
