If your child has been hazed at a college, university, or Greek organization near Goshen County, Wyoming, you are not alone. The same national fraternities and sororities involved in the recent $10 million hazing lawsuit we filed against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston operate right here in Wyoming and the surrounding region.

Hazing doesn’t just happen in Texas. It happens in Goshen County. It happens at Wyoming universities. And it can happen to your child.

πŸ”₯ What Is Hazing? Goshen County Parents Need to Know

Hazing is not just “harmless tradition.” It is abuse, torture, and sometimes even manslaughter disguised as “initiation.”

In our current case, a University of Houston fraternity pledge was:
βœ” Waterboarded with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
βœ” Forced to do 500+ squats and 100+ pushups until he collapsed
βœ” Struck with wooden paddles
βœ” Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to lie in his own vomit
βœ” Hospitalized for 4 days with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure

This isn’t just happening in Houston. It’s happening in Wyoming. It’s happening near Goshen County.

🚩 Warning Signs of Hazing in Goshen County

If your child is involved in Greek life, sports teams, marching bands, ROTC, or any student organization near Goshen County, watch for these red flags:

πŸ”΄ Sudden secrecy – “It’s tradition, don’t ask questions.”
πŸ”΄ Unexplained injuries – Bruises, sprains, or signs of exhaustion.
πŸ”΄ Forced consumption – Being pressured to drink alcohol or eat unusual substances.
πŸ”΄ Sleep deprivation – Being kept up all night for “activities.”
πŸ”΄ Extreme physical exertion – Forced workouts, runs, or drills that seem excessive.
πŸ”΄ Psychological torment – Humiliation, threats, or being forced to carry degrading objects.
πŸ”΄ Fear of speaking out – “If I tell anyone, I’ll get kicked out.”

If you see any of these signs, your child may be a victim of hazing. Call us immediately.

πŸ›οΈ Goshen County Hazing Laws: Know Your Rights

Wyoming has strict anti-hazing laws, and victims have legal rights to seek justice.

βš–οΈ Wyoming Hazing Law (W.S. Β§ 21-12-101)

  • Hazing is a crime in Wyoming if it endangers mental or physical health.
  • Consent is NOT a defense – Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the law still holds perpetrators accountable.
  • Organizations can be held liable – Fraternities, sororities, universities, and even national organizations can be sued.
  • Individuals face criminal charges – Those who participate in hazing can be prosecuted.

πŸ’° Can Goshen County Families Sue for Hazing?

Yes. If your child was hazed in Wyoming or at a nearby university, you can pursue:
βœ… Medical expenses (hospital bills, therapy, future treatment)
βœ… Pain and suffering (physical and emotional trauma)
βœ… Lost wages (if hazing affected their ability to work)
βœ… Punitive damages (to punish the organization for egregious conduct)
βœ… Wrongful death (if hazing resulted in death)

Our firm has recovered MILLIONS for hazing victims nationwideβ€”including our current $10 million case. Goshen County families deserve the same justice.

🏫 Which Wyoming Schools Have Hazing Risks?

While we cannot name specific incidents without evidence, hazing is a nationwide problem, and Wyoming universities are not immune.

Wyoming colleges and universities with Greek life or high-risk organizations include:

  • University of Wyoming (Laramie) – Home to multiple fraternities and sororities.
  • Wyoming Catholic College (Lander) – Small, tight-knit student groups.
  • Community colleges and trade schools – Hazing can occur in any group with initiation rituals.

National fraternities with chapters in Wyoming (and near Goshen County) include:

  • Pi Kappa Phi (same fraternity as our current lawsuit)
  • Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE)
  • Sigma Chi
  • Sigma Nu
  • Kappa Sigma
  • Beta Theta Pi
  • Phi Delta Theta

If your child is pledging any of these organizations in Wyoming or near Goshen County, they are at risk.

🚨 What to Do If Your Child Is Hazed in Goshen County

βœ… Step 1: Get Medical Help Immediately

  • Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) and kidney failure (like our client) can be life-threatening.
  • Alcohol poisoning, concussions, and internal injuries are common in hazing.
  • Psychological trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression) requires professional treatment.

βœ… Step 2: Preserve Evidence

  • Take photos/videos of injuries, hazing locations, and any physical evidence.
  • Save all communications (texts, GroupMe, Snapchat, Instagram DMs).
  • Get witness names and contact info (other pledges, bystanders).
  • Do NOT delete anything – Even “jokes” or “memes” about hazing can be evidence.

βœ… Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Organization Alone

  • Fraternities, sororities, and universities will try to cover it up.
  • They will pressure your child to stay silent.
  • They may offer “apologies” or “settlements” that waive your rights.

βœ… Step 4: Call Attorney 911 Immediately

  • We will handle ALL communications with the fraternity, university, and insurance companies.
  • We will preserve evidence before it disappears.
  • We will fight for maximum compensation for your child’s injuries.

πŸ’° How Much Is a Goshen County Hazing Case Worth?

βœ” Egregiousness of conduct (waterboarding, forced drinking, physical abuse)
βœ” Institutional negligence (Did the university or national organization know about prior hazing?)
βœ” Criminal charges (Assault, manslaughter, etc.)

πŸ“Š Recent Hazing Case Results (Nationwide)
