📢 THE HAZING CRISIS IN Asotin County: WHAT PARENTS NEED TO KNOW

Asotin County families send their children to college expecting them to be safe. They trust universities to protect their kids. They assume Greek organizations will provide positive experiences.

That trust is being betrayed.

Right now, in Asotin County and across Washington state, students are being subjected to torture disguised as tradition. They’re being waterboarded. Forced to exercise until their muscles break down. Humiliated. Beaten. Hospitalized. Some don’t come home.

This isn’t happening somewhere far away. It’s happening near Asotin County. It could be happening to your child.

At Attorney 911, we’re fighting this battle right now in Texas — and we’re bringing the same aggressive representation to Asotin County families. We’re currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston after a student was hospitalized with kidney failure from extreme hazing.

The same fraternities operate near Asotin County. The same negligence exists at Washington universities. The same abuse is happening to Asotin County students.

If your child has been hazed, we will fight for you. We will expose the truth. We will hold every responsible party accountable — no matter how powerful they are.

🏆 WHY Asotin County FAMILIES CHOOSE ATTORNEY 911

✅ We’re Fighting This Fight RIGHT NOW — $10M Hazing Lawsuit in Progress

While other law firms talk about hazing, we’re actively litigating a $10 million hazing case against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston. Our client was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and hospitalized with kidney failure for four days.

This isn’t theoretical for us. This is what we do.

✅ Former Insurance Defense Attorneys — We Know Their Playbook

Both Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña worked for insurance companies and national defense firms before switching sides to represent victims. We know how they think. We know how they try to minimize claims. We know how to dismantle their defenses.

We’ve seen their playbook from the inside — now we use it against them.

✅ Federal Court Authority — We Can Fight Anywhere in America

We’re admitted to U.S. District Court and have experience in federal litigation. This means we can pursue hazing cases anywhere in the country — including Asotin County, Washington, and nationwide.

Distance is not a barrier. Justice is our jurisdiction.

We don’t just serve Asotin County — we’re present in Asotin County.

✅ $0 Upfront Cost — Contingency Fee Representation

We understand that cost is a major concern for Asotin County families. That’s why we take hazing cases on contingency — you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we win your case.

No financial risk. No hourly fees. No retainers.

✅ Se Habla Español — Bilingual Representation for Asotin County Families

Our staff is bilingual. We can communicate with you in English or Spanish. We understand the unique concerns of Hispanic families in Asotin County and will ensure language is never a barrier to justice.

We don’t just fight for your child. We understand your child.

💰 WHAT Asotin County HAZING VICTIMS CAN RECOVER

Hazing isn’t just wrong — it’s expensive. The physical, emotional, and financial costs can last a lifetime. Asotin County families deserve full compensation for what they’ve endured.

🏥 MEDICAL EXPENSES

• Emergency room visits
• Hospital stays
• Diagnostic tests (blood work, imaging)
• Specialist visits (nephrologists, therapists)
• Medications
• Physical therapy
• Future medical monitoring
• Potential dialysis or transplant costs

Our client in Texas was hospitalized for 4 days with kidney failure. Medical bills can quickly reach six figures.

💔 PAIN AND SUFFERING

• Physical pain from injuries
• Emotional trauma from abuse
• Humiliation and shame
• Anxiety and depression
• PTSD symptoms
• Loss of enjoyment of life

Waterboarding. Forced eating until vomiting. 500 squats. These aren’t just hazing — they’re torture. The psychological scars can last decades.

🎓 EDUCATIONAL DAMAGES

• Disruption to academic progress
• Delayed graduation
• Lost scholarships
• Transfer expenses
• Impact on future career opportunities

Hazing doesn’t just hurt your body — it can derail your future.

💼 LOST WAGES AND EARNING CAPACITY

• Time missed from work during recovery
• Impact on internships and job opportunities
• Long-term career limitations from permanent injuries

If hazing causes permanent health issues, it can affect your ability to work for the rest of your life.

⚖️ PUNITIVE DAMAGES — PUNISHING THEM SO IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN

When conduct is especially egregious, courts can award punitive damages — extra money meant to punish the wrongdoers and deter future misconduct.

Our $10 million demand includes punitive damages because:

• Waterboarding is torture
• They knew about prior hazing deaths and did nothing
• They continued despite visible distress
• They’ve shown no remorse and are already planning to reopen

Punitive damages send a message: Hazing will cost you millions.

⚠️ COMMON HAZING ACTIVITIES IN Asotin County — KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS

Hazing isn’t always obvious. It often starts with “harmless” activities and escalates. These are red flags that your child may be experiencing hazing:

🚩 PHYSICAL ABUSE

• Extreme exercise (500 squats, 100 pushups, bear crawls)
• Being struck with objects (wooden paddles, belts)
• Waterboarding or simulated drowning
• Branding or burning
• Sleep deprivation
• Exposure to extreme heat or cold

🚩 FORCED CONSUMPTION

• Forced drinking (alcohol, non-alcoholic liquids)
• Forced eating (food, non-food items)
• Eating until vomiting
• Continuing activities while vomiting

🚩 PSYCHOLOGICAL TORTURE

• Waterboarding (simulated drowning)
• Being hog-tied or restrained
• Forced to carry embarrassing objects
• Verbal abuse and humiliation
• Threats of physical harm or expulsion
• Isolation from friends and family

🚩 SERVITUDE

• Forced to clean fraternity/sorority houses
• Forced to run errands for members
• Forced to drive members at all hours
• Forced to perform personal tasks for members

🚩 SEXUAL HUMILIATION

• Forced nudity
• Sexualized objects or clothing
• Inappropriate touching
• Sexual assault

If your child is experiencing any of these, it’s not “tradition” — it’s abuse. And it’s illegal.

🔍 WHO IS LIABLE FOR HAZING IN Asotin County?

Hazing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Multiple parties share responsibility — and we pursue them all.

🏛️ THE LOCAL CHAPTER

• Directly organizes and conducts hazing
• Chapter officers (president, pledgemaster) are personally liable
• Members who participate are personally liable

🏢 THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION

• Sets policies that (fail to) prevent hazing
• Provides training (or fails to)
• Has deep pockets and insurance
• Knew or should have known about hazing culture

In our Texas case, Pi Kappa Phi National is a defendant because they knew about “a hazing crisis” and failed to stop it.

🎓 THE UNIVERSITY

• Has duty to protect students
• Often owns or controls fraternity/sorority houses
• Can regulate, inspect, and shut down organizations
• Knew or should have known about hazing risks

The University of Houston owns the Pi Kappa Phi house where our client was waterboarded. They are a defendant in our lawsuit.

🏠 HOUSING CORPORATIONS

• Own or control fraternity/sorority properties
• Have duty to maintain safe premises
• Can be liable for hazing that occurs on their property

👥 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS

• Each person who participates in hazing can be sued personally
• Homeowner’s insurance may provide coverage
• Professional and personal consequences follow them

In the Stone Foltz case, the chapter president was ordered to pay $6.5 million personally.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 PARENTS OF MEMBERS (in some cases)

• If hazing occurs at their home, they can be liable for premises liability
• Homeowner’s insurance may provide coverage

In our Texas case, a former member and his spouse are defendants because hazing occurred at their home.

⚖️ WASHINGTON HAZING LAWS — YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

Washington state has strong laws against hazing. Asotin County families have legal options.

📜 RCW 28B.10.900 — HAZING DEFINED

Hazing means any method of initiation into a student organization that:

• Causes or is likely to cause bodily danger, physical harm, or serious psychological harm
• Includes brutality of a physical nature (whipping, beating, branding, forced calisthenics, exposure to elements)
• Includes forced consumption of food, alcohol, drugs, or other substances
• Includes sleep deprivation, confinement, or other extreme activities
• Includes activities that would subject the student to extreme mental stress

This definition covers virtually all hazing activities reported in Asotin County.

🚫 RCW 28B.10.901 — HAZING PROHIBITED

• Hazing is prohibited at all public and private institutions in Washington
• Consent is not a defense — even if the student agreed to participate
• Organizations that haze can be suspended or expelled
• Individuals who haze can face disciplinary action

⚖️ RCW 28B.10.902 — CRIMINAL PENALTIES

Hazing that causes bodily harm is a gross misdemeanor, punishable by:

• Up to 364 days in jail
• Up to $5,000 fine

Hazing that causes substantial bodily harm is a Class C felony, punishable by:

• Up to 5 years in prison
• Up to $10,000 fine

This means hazing isn’t just a civil issue — it can be a crime.

🏛️ RCW 28B.10.903 — CIVIL LIABILITY

• Victims can sue for damages
• Organizations can be held liable for hazing
• Universities can be held liable if they knew or should have known about hazing

This is where Attorney 911 comes in. We pursue civil lawsuits to recover compensation for Asotin County families.

💰 PRECEDENT CASES — HAZING VICTIMS WIN MILLIONS

Hazing cases aren’t just about justice — they’re about money. Big money. Asotin County families need to know what’s possible.

📊 HAZING SETTLEMENTS AND VERDICTS

These aren’t isolated incidents. This is a pattern. And Asotin County families can be part of the solution.

🔥 WHY THESE CASES MATTER FOR Asotin County

1. Universities and fraternities PAY — They have deep pockets and insurance
2. Juries HATE hazing — They award millions when they hear the truth
3. Criminal charges often follow — Parallel criminal investigations are common
4. Legislation changes — These cases lead to new laws with stronger penalties
5. Culture shifts — Each case makes it harder for hazing to continue

The same legal strategies that won $10.1 million in Ohio and $6.1 million in Louisiana apply to Asotin County cases.

🏛️ UNIVERSITIES NEAR Asotin County — ARE THEY PROTECTING YOUR CHILD?

Asotin County is home to dedicated families who want the best for their children. But when those children go to college, they may be exposed to dangerous hazing cultures at nearby universities.

🚨 THE QUESTION Asotin County PARENTS MUST ASK:

“Is my child’s university doing enough to prevent hazing?”

The truth: Most universities react to hazing after someone is hurt. They don’t prevent it.

The evidence from our Texas case proves it:

• University of Houston owned the fraternity house where waterboarding occurred
• They had a prior hazing incident in 2017 at a different fraternity
• They did nothing meaningful to prevent it from happening again
• Now they’re being sued for $10 million

Asotin County families deserve better. Your child deserves to be safe.

📢 MESSAGE TO FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES NEAR Asotin County

🔴 TO PI KAPPA PHI, SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON, PI KAPPA ALPHA, SIGMA CHI, AND ALL OTHERS:

We are watching.

The same legal strategies that are winning $10 million verdicts in Texas and Ohio apply to your chapters near Asotin County.

We know your corporate structures. We know your insurance policies. We know your national organizations’ assets. We know your pattern of hazing deaths and injuries.

If you haze students in Asotin County, we will find you. We will sue you. And we will win.

The Beta Nu chapter at University of Houston?

• SHUT DOWN after our lawsuit
• Charter surrendered
• Criminal referrals initiated

That’s what happens when you haze. That can happen to your chapter too.

📢 MESSAGE TO UNIVERSITIES NEAR Asotin County

🔴 TO WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY, UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, GONZAGA, AND ALL OTHERS:

You own the problem. And you will own the liability.

The University of Houston owned the fraternity house where our client was waterboarded. They had prior knowledge of hazing at their campus. They failed to act. Now they’re being sued for $10 million.

The same institutional negligence exists at your university.

You have the power to inspect. You have the power to regulate. You have the power to shut down dangerous organizations.

When you fail to use that power, you become part of the problem.

Asotin County families trust you to protect their children. When you betray that trust, you will pay.
