The Complete Guide for Texas Families: Hazing Laws, University Accountability, and Your Legal Rights If Your Child Was Hazed in Texas, You're Not Alone. We Can Help. Imagine this: Your son, a bright freshman from a Texas family, is excited to join a fraternity at a major university. What starts as camaraderie quickly turns sinister. He's handed a "pledge fanny pack" filled with humiliating items and told to carry it 24/7. He's forced to chauffeur older members at all hours, deprived of sleep, and subjected to weekly interrogations. Then comes the physical abuse: bear crawls, wheelbarrow races, being sprayed in the face with a hose "similar to waterboarding." During a brutal November workout, he's forced through 100+ push-ups and 500 squats. Days later, he's vomiting, unable to stand, and his urine has turned brown. At the hospital, doctors diagnose him with rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure—his muscles are literally breaking down and poisoning his body. He spends four days hospitalized, facing potential permanent kidney damage. This isn't hypothetical. This is exactly what happened to Leonel Bermudez, a University of Houston student whose $10 million hazing lawsuit against UH and the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity’s Beta Nu chapter we filed in…
