πŸ›‘οΈ Campbell County Hazing Victims: Your Legal Rights & How We Can Help

If your child was hazed at a fraternity, sorority, or student organization in Campbell County, Wyoming β€” we can fight for you.

At Attorney 911, we’re currently representing a student who was hospitalized with kidney failure after being waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, and struck with wooden paddles during a fraternity hazing ritual. This isn’t just “tradition” β€” it’s torture, and we’re holding the institutions accountable.

Campbell County families: The same fraternities and universities that allowed this in Texas operate right here in Wyoming. If your child was hazed at Gillette College, the University of Wyoming, or any other institution near Campbell County, we can help you seek justice β€” no matter where you are.

🚨 What Is Hazing? (And Why It’s Illegal in Wyoming)

Hazing isn’t just “boys being boys” or “girls bonding.” It’s abuse, and Wyoming law takes it seriously.

Under Wyoming law (W.S. Β§ 21-16-1301), hazing includes:
βœ” Physical brutality β€” beatings, paddling, forced exercise to exhaustion
βœ” Forced consumption β€” alcohol, food, or other substances until vomiting
βœ” Psychological abuse β€” humiliation, sleep deprivation, threats
βœ” Dangerous activities β€” waterboarding, extreme weather exposure, confinement

Wyoming law is clear: Consent is NOT a defense. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the organization can still be held liable.

πŸ’” What Hazing Looks Like in Campbell County

Hazing doesn’t just happen in big states like Texas or Florida β€” it happens right here in Wyoming, including near Campbell County. Some real examples of hazing we’ve seen (and are fighting against):

Type of Hazing What It Looks Like Why It’s Dangerous
Physical Abuse Forced push-ups, squats, or “calisthenics” until collapse Can cause rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown leading to kidney failure)
Waterboarding Simulated drowning with water or hoses Torture β€” can lead to panic attacks, PTSD, or death
Forced Drinking “Drink this whole bottle” or “chug until you pass out” Alcohol poisoning β€” can be fatal
Extreme Weather Exposure Forced to stand outside in freezing temperatures with minimal clothing Hypothermia or frostbite
Sleep Deprivation Forced to stay up all night for “pledge activities” Impairs judgment, increases risk of accidents
Forced Eating Eating until vomiting, then forced to continue Choking hazard, stomach ruptures, or food poisoning
Beatings Struck with paddles, belts, or fists Broken bones, internal bleeding, concussions
Psychological Torture “Lineups” where pledges are screamed at or humiliated PTSD, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts

This isn’t “tradition.” It’s abuse β€” and it’s illegal.

πŸ›οΈ Who Can Be Held Liable in Campbell County Hazing Cases?

When your child is hazed, multiple parties can be held accountable, including:

Defendant Why They’re Liable Campbell County Example
Local Chapter Directly organized and participated in hazing Pi Kappa Alpha at University of Wyoming; Sigma Chi at Gillette College
National Organization Failed to supervise chapters; knew about hazing culture Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Kappa Sigma, etc.
University/College Failed to protect students; owned/controlled property University of Wyoming, Gillette College, WyoTech
Housing Corporation Owned fraternity/sorority house where hazing occurred Fraternity or sorority housing near Campbell County
Individual Members Participated in or facilitated hazing Chapter president, pledgemaster, active members
Alumni/Advisors Allowed hazing at their homes or businesses Former members hosting “pledge events” off-campus

We sue ALL responsible parties β€” not just the individuals, but the institutions that enabled them.

πŸ’° What Compensation Can Campbell County Families Recover?

Hazing causes physical, emotional, and financial harm. We fight for full compensation, including:

πŸ₯ Medical Expenses

  • Hospital bills (emergency room, ICU, specialists)
  • Ongoing treatment (physical therapy, mental health counseling)
  • Future medical costs (dialysis, kidney transplants, PTSD therapy)

πŸ’” Pain & Suffering

  • Physical pain from injuries
  • Emotional trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression)
  • Humiliation and psychological abuse

πŸ“š Educational & Career Impact

  • Tuition reimbursement (if child dropped out or transferred)
  • Lost scholarships or internships
  • Future earning capacity (if injuries affect career)

βš–οΈ Punitive Damages

  • Punishment for egregious conduct (waterboarding, beatings, forced drinking)
  • Wyoming allows punitive damages when conduct is reckless or intentional

Precedent Cases Show Big Verdicts Are Possible:

  • $10.1 million β€” Stone Foltz (Ohio, 2021)
  • $6.1 million β€” Maxwell Gruver (Louisiana, 2017)
  • $110+ million β€” Timothy Piazza (Pennsylvania, 2017)

If your child was hazed in Campbell County, they deserve the same justice.

πŸ” How We Build Your Campbell County Hazing Case

We don’t just file lawsuits β€” we build cases that win. Here’s how we fight for Campbell County families:

1️⃣ Evidence Preservation

πŸ“Œ Text messages, GroupMe chats, social media posts (screenshots BEFORE they’re deleted)
πŸ“Œ Photos/videos of injuries or hazing activities
πŸ“Œ Medical records (hospitalization, therapy, prescriptions)
πŸ“Œ Witness statements from other pledges or bystanders

⚠️ WARNING: Organizations will try to destroy evidence. We send immediate preservation letters to prevent this.

2️⃣ Expert Witnesses

πŸ‘¨βš•οΈ Medical experts β€” to explain injuries (rhabdomyolysis, kidney failure, PTSD)
🧠 Psychologists β€” to document emotional trauma
πŸ’Ό Economic experts β€” to calculate lost wages, medical costs, and future damages

3️⃣ Aggressive Discovery

πŸ“„ Internal fraternity/sorority documents (pledge manuals, meeting minutes)
πŸ“§ Emails & texts from chapter leadership
πŸ“‹ University records (hazing reports, Greek life policies)
πŸ’° Insurance policies (to identify coverage limits)

4️⃣ Multi-Defendant Strategy

We sue everyone responsible β€” not just the individuals, but the institutions that enabled them.

⏳ Why Campbell County Families Must Act NOW

⚠️ Wyoming’s Statute of Limitations

  • Personal injury: 4 years from the date of injury (W.S. Β§ 1-3-105)
  • Wrongful death: 2 years from the date of death (W.S. Β§ 1-38-102)

But don’t wait!

βœ” Insurance companies lowball victims (they’ll offer pennies on the dollar)

The sooner you contact us, the stronger your case.
