🔥 The Hazing Crisis in Appanoose County, Iowa – What You Need to Know

Hazing isn’t just a problem at big universities – it happens right here in Appanoose County, Iowa, at colleges and high schools where Greek life exists. And the consequences can be devastating:

✅ Physical injuries – Broken bones, burns, alcohol poisoning, even rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown that can lead to kidney failure)
✅ Psychological trauma – PTSD, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts
✅ Wrongful death – Too many families have lost children to hazing rituals gone wrong

In our current case, a University of Houston student was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and struck with wooden paddles – all as part of “pledging.” He ended up in the hospital with kidney failure. This isn’t just hazing – it’s torture.

The same fraternities and sororities operate in Appanoose County, Iowa. The same culture of abuse exists here. And we will fight to stop it.

⚖️ Who Is Liable for Hazing in Appanoose County, Iowa?

When hazing happens, multiple parties can be held legally responsible:

1️⃣ The Local Fraternity/Sorority Chapter

• The chapter officers (President, Pledgemaster, etc.) who organized the hazing
• The members who participated in or allowed the abuse

2️⃣ The National Organization

• Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Kappa Sigma, and other nationals have paid millions in hazing settlements
• They know about the dangers but fail to enforce anti-hazing policies

3️⃣ The University or School

• If they knew (or should have known) about hazing and did nothing
• If they own or control the fraternity/sorority house
• If they failed to properly supervise Greek life

4️⃣ Individual Members & Alumni

• Every person who participated in or facilitated hazing can be sued personally
• Even alumni who allowed hazing at their homes can be held liable

In our current case, we are suing:

• The local chapter
• The national fraternity
• The university
• 10+ individual members and alumni

We will do the same for Appanoose County, Iowa victims.
