Hazing Victims in Fremont County, Wyoming: Your Legal Rights & How Attorney 911 Can Help
🚨 Hazing Is Happening in Fremont County — And It’s Not “Tradition,” It’s Abuse
If your child attends college near Fremont County, Wyoming—whether at Central Wyoming College in Riverton, the University of Wyoming in Laramie, or other regional institutions—they may be at risk of hazing abuse in fraternities, sororities, sports teams, or other student organizations.
This isn’t harmless fun. This is dangerous, illegal, and often life-threatening.
At Attorney 911, we’re currently fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston—a case involving waterboarding, forced exercise until kidney failure, and psychological torture. The same fraternities, the same culture, and the same negligence exist at universities near Fremont County.
If your child has been hazed, we can help.
🔍 What Is Hazing? (And Why Fremont County Families Need to Know)
Hazing is any activity that humiliates, degrades, abuses, or endangers a student for the purpose of initiation, affiliation, or maintaining membership in a group—regardless of whether the student “consented.”
Common Hazing Practices in Wyoming & Nationwide
✅ Physical Abuse – Beatings, paddling, branding, forced exercise to exhaustion
✅ Forced Consumption – Binge drinking, eating until vomiting, consuming non-food substances
✅ Psychological Torture – Sleep deprivation, humiliation, threats of expulsion
✅ Dangerous Rituals – Waterboarding, simulated drowning, extreme weather exposure
✅ Sexual Humiliation – Forced nudity, carrying sexual objects, sexual assault
These aren’t “pranks.” They’re crimes.
🏥 The Medical Dangers of Hazing (What Fremont County Parents Need to Know)
Hazing can cause permanent physical and psychological damage, including:
| Injury | What It Means | Real-World Example |
|---|---|---|
| Rhabdomyolysis | Muscle breakdown that leads to kidney failure | Our client was hospitalized for 4 days after forced exercise |
| Acute Alcohol Poisoning | Can be fatal (BAC over 0.30) | Multiple hazing deaths nationwide |
| Traumatic Brain Injury | From beatings, falls, or strangulation | Permanent cognitive damage |
| Heatstroke / Hypothermia | From extreme weather exposure | Can be fatal |
| PTSD, Anxiety, Depression | Long-term psychological trauma | Many victims drop out of school |
| Death | Hazing kills students every year | At least one hazing death per year since 2000 |
If your child was hazed in Fremont County, they could be at risk of serious, life-altering harm.
⚖️ Wyoming Hazing Laws: What Fremont County Victims Can Sue For
Wyoming has strict anti-hazing laws, and victims can pursue civil lawsuits for:
1. Negligence (Most Common Claim)
- Duty of Care: Universities and fraternities must protect students
- Breach: They failed to stop hazing
- Causation: The hazing directly caused injuries
- Damages: Medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages
2. Assault & Battery (Individual Liability)
- If your child was physically harmed, the perpetrators can be sued personally
- Example: Being struck with paddles, forced into dangerous activities
3. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress
- If the hazing was extreme and outrageous (e.g., waterboarding, sexual humiliation)
- Example: Our client was waterboarded with a garden hose—this is torture, not hazing
4. Premises Liability (If Hazing Happened on University Property)
- If the university owns or controls the location where hazing occurred
- Example: Many fraternity houses are university-owned
5. Negligent Supervision (National Fraternities & Universities)
- If the national organization or university knew about hazing and did nothing
- Example: Pi Kappa Phi had 8 years to fix their culture after a hazing death—they failed
