Hazing in Texas: A Comprehensive Legal Guide for Families in the City of Roby and Across the State
1. Hook + Overview
Imagine your son or daughter, a bright student from the close-knit community of Roby, Texas, excitedly begins their college journey at a major Texas university. They want to belong, to find their place. They accept a bid to join a fraternity, sorority, or campus organization. What starts as camaraderie slowly twists. They are carrying a degrading “pledge fanny pack” at all hours. They are woken at 3 a.m. for brutal “workouts.” They are forced to consume milk and hot dogs until they vomit, then run sprints. Then, one day, they cannot stand up. Their urine is brown. You get the call no parent ever wants: your child is in the hospital with acute kidney failure, diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis from extreme physical hazing. This is not a hypothetical. This is exactly what happened to Leonel Bermudez at the University of Houston in the fall of 2025.
Our Guiding Case: Leonel Bermudez v. University of Houston & Pi Kappa Phi
Right now, our firm, Attorney911, is actively litigating one of the most serious hazing cases in Texas. We represent Leonel Bermudez in a $10 million lawsuit against the University of Houston, the Pi Kappa Phi national fraternity, its Beta Nu chapter housing corporation, and 13 individual fraternity leaders. The allegations, detailed in media reports from Click2Houston and ABC13, include forced humiliation, simulated waterboarding, sleep deprivation, and extreme physical abuse that led to life-threatening kidney injury. This case is the stark proof that severe, injurious hazing is happening right now on Texas campuses.

2. Hazing in 2025: What It Really Looks Like
For families in Roby, where community and trust are paramount, the reality of campus hazing can seem like a distant, sensationalized problem. It is not. Hazing has evolved from crude stereotypes into systematic abuse that exploits technology, psychology, and tradition.
A Clear, Modern Definition
Hazing is any forced, coerced, or strongly pressured action tied to joining or maintaining membership in a group, where the behavior endangers physical or mental health, humiliates, or exploits. Critically, a student’s “agreement” under peer pressure, fear of exclusion, or desire to belong does not make it legal or safe. Texas law explicitly states that consent is not a defense.
The Modern Taxonomy of Hazing
1. Subtle Hazing (Often Dismissed as “Tradition”)
This establishes power imbalances and sets the stage for escalation.
- Servitude & Control: Acting as a 24/7 on-call driver, personal errand-runner, or cleaner for older members.
- Deception: Being told to lie to parents, RAs, or university officials about activities.
- Social Isolation: Being cut off from non-member friends or requiring permission to socialize.
- Digital Monitoring: Mandatory 24/7 responsiveness in group chats (GroupMe, WhatsApp), location-sharing demands, and social media policing.
2. Harassment Hazing (Causing Active Discomfort)
- Sleep Deprivation: Late-night “meetings,” 3 a.m. wake-up calls, multi-day events with minimal rest.
- Verbal Abuse: Yelling, screaming, degrading language, and threats.
- Forced Consumption: Eating spoiled food, excessive amounts of bland food (milk, bread, hot dogs), or non-food substances.
- “Voluntary” Extreme Exercise: “Smokings” or workouts framed as “conditioning” but designed to punish and exhaust—hundreds of push-ups, wall-sits to collapse, miles of running.
- Public Humiliation: Forced embarrassing acts in public, wearing degrading costumes, “roasting” sessions.
3. Violent Hazing (High Potential for Injury or Death)
- Forced Alcohol/Drug Consumption: “Big/Little” bottle drinks, drinking games for wrong answers, keg stands, coerced drug use.
- Physical Beatings: Paddling, punching, kicking, slapping.
- Dangerous “Tests”: Blindfolded tackles (“glass ceiling”), forced fights, kidnapping, restraint.
- Sexualized Hazing: Forced nudity, simulated sexual acts, sexual assault.
- Environmental Abuse: Locking pledges in freezing or extremely hot spaces, exposure to hazardous chemicals.
Where Hazing Happens: Beyond the Frat House
While fraternities and sororities are frequent offenders, hazing permeates many campus groups:
- Athletic Teams: From football to cheerleading.
- Corps of Cadets & ROTC Units: Military-style discipline crossing into abuse.
- Spirit & Tradition Organizations: Groups like Texas Cowboys, song leaders, mascot programs.
- Marching Bands and Performing Arts Groups.
- Academic, Cultural, and Service Clubs.
The common threads are tradition, secrecy, and the abuse of power. For a student from Roby, wanting to fit into a new, larger community can make them exceptionally vulnerable to these pressures.
3. Law & Liability Framework (Texas + Federal)
Understanding the legal landscape is the first step toward accountability. Families in Roby are protected by Texas state law and several federal statutes.
Texas Education Code, Chapter 37: The Anti-Hazing Statute
Texas law provides a strong framework. Key provisions include:
- Definition (§37.151): Hazing is any intentional, knowing, or reckless act—on or off campus—directed at a student for the purpose of initiation, affiliation, or membership that endangers mental or physical health or safety. This includes forced drinking, physical brutality, and extreme stress.
- Criminal Penalties (§37.152):
- Class B Misdemeanor: Basic hazing (up to 180 days jail, $2,000 fine).
- Class A Misdemeanor: Hazing that causes injury requiring medical treatment.
- State Jail Felony: Hazing that causes serious bodily injury or death.
- Consent is NOT a Defense (§37.155): This is critical. Even if a student “went along with it,” the perpetrators can still be prosecuted.
- Immunity for Good-Faith Reporting (§37.154): Individuals who report hazing or call for medical help in an emergency are protected from civil or criminal liability for their own minor involvement (like underage drinking).
- Organizational Liability (§37.153): The fraternity, sorority, or club itself can be fined up to $10,000 per violation and lose its university recognition.
Criminal vs. Civil Cases: Two Paths to Accountability
- Criminal Cases: Brought by the state (DA’s office). Aim to punish with jail, fines, probation. Charges can include hazing, assault, furnishing alcohol to minors, and in fatalities, manslaughter.
- Civil Cases: Brought by the victim or their family. Aim to secure compensation for damages and force institutional change. These cases target:
- Individuals who planned or carried out the hazing.
- The Local Chapter as an entity.
- The National Fraternity/Sorority for negligent supervision and failure to prevent known patterns.
- The University for deliberate indifference to a known, dangerous environment.
- Property Owners of off-campus houses.
A criminal conviction is not required to file a successful civil lawsuit. The two processes run separately, and a civil case often uncovers the cover-ups and institutional failures that a criminal case may not reach.
Federal Law Overlay
- The Stop Campus Hazing Act (2024): Requires colleges receiving federal aid to report hazing incidents more transparently and strengthen prevention programs. This will increase public data by 2026.
- Title IX: When hazing involves sexual harassment, assault, or gender-based hostility, universities have a legal duty to investigate and address it.
- The Clery Act: Requires universities to report certain campus crimes, which can include hazing-related assaults, burglaries, or alcohol offenses.
4. National Hazing Case Patterns: The Scripts That Repeat in Texas
The tragic cases below are not just news stories; they are legal blueprints that show how hazing happens, how institutions fail, and how families achieve justice. They directly inform how we handle cases for Texas families.
The Alcohol Poisoning Pattern
- Stone Foltz – Bowling Green State University, Pi Kappa Alpha (2021): A 20-year-old pledge died after being forced to drink an entire bottle of alcohol. His family reached a $10 million settlement ($7M from Pi Kappa Alpha national, ~$3M from BGSU). The chapter president was later ordered to pay $6.5 million personally.
- Max Gruver – LSU, Phi Delta Theta (2017): Died after a “Bible study” drinking game where wrong answers meant forced drinking. His death led to Louisiana’s felony hazing “Max Gruver Act.” His family secured a $6.1 million verdict.
- Timothy Piazza – Penn State, Beta Theta Pi (2017): Died from traumatic brain injuries after a bid-acceptance night of extreme drinking, with fraternity brothers delaying help for hours. Led to Pennsylvania’s “Timothy J. Piazza Anti-Hazing Law.”
The Physical Brutality Pattern
- Chun “Michael” Deng – Baruch College, Pi Delta Psi (2013): Pledge died from head injuries during a blindfolded, violent “glass ceiling” ritual at a retreat. The national fraternity was criminally convicted of manslaughter and banned from Pennsylvania for 10 years.
- Danny Santulli – University of Missouri, Phi Gamma Delta (2021): Suffered permanent, catastrophic brain damage after coerced drinking. His family settled with 22 defendants, illustrating the wide net of liability.
The Athletic & Institutional Hazing Pattern
- Northwestern University Football (2023-2025): Widespread allegations of sexualized and racist hazing led to multiple lawsuits, the firing of the head coach, and confidential settlements, proving hazing is endemic in high-profile sports.
What These Cases Mean for Roby Families
These national tragedies created legal precedents that benefit Texas families. They established that:
- Nationals can be liable for the predictable actions of their chapters.
- Universities can be sued for failing to protect students.
- “Consent” and “tradition” are ineffective defenses.
- Juries will award significant damages for catastrophic injuries and wrongful death.
The same fraternities implicated nationally—Pi Kappa Alpha, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Delta Theta, Pi Kappa Phi—have active chapters at Texas universities. The scripts are identical.
5. Texas Focus: Where Roby Students Go to College
Families in Roby and Fisher County send their children to universities across Texas. Understanding the specific environments and histories of these campuses is crucial. The recent, severe case at the University of Houston is a stark example, but it is not an isolated one.
5.1 University of Houston (UH)
Snapshot for Roby Families: UH is a large, diverse, urban campus with a significant Greek life presence. For students from West Texas, it represents a major shift in environment and social dynamics.
Official Hazing Policy & Reporting: UH prohibits hazing on and off-campus. Reports can be made to the Dean of Students Office, Campus Police (UHPD), or anonymously through online portals.
The Flagship Case – Bermudez v. UH & Pi Kappa Phi:
Our firm currently represents Leonel Bermudez in this $10 million lawsuit. According to the Click2Houston and ABC13 reports, the hazing included:
- A degrading “pledge fanny pack” rule.
- Forced, extreme physical workouts at Yellowstone Boulevard Park and elsewhere.
- Simulated waterboarding with a hose.
- Forced consumption of milk, hot dogs, and peppercorns until vomiting.
- The result: Rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure, requiring four days of hospitalization.
The Pi Kappa Phi Beta Nu chapter was suspended and voted to surrender its charter. UH called the conduct “deeply disturbing.” This case is a live example of the severe injury and complex litigation that hazing can cause.
How a UH Hazing Case Proceeds: Investigations may involve UHPD and Houston Police. Civil suits are filed in Harris County courts. Defendants can include individuals, the local chapter, the Pi Kappa Phi national headquarters, the UH System Board of Regents, and property owners.
5.2 Texas A&M University
Snapshot for Roby Families: Texas A&M’s strong sense of tradition and the prominence of the Corps of Cadets creates a unique environment where hazing can be disguised as “discipline” or “team building.”
Documented Incidents:
- Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) – Chemical Burns Lawsuit (2021): Pledges alleged they were covered in substances including industrial-strength cleaner, causing severe chemical burns requiring skin graft surgeries. The lawsuit sought $1 million.
- Corps of Cadets Lawsuit (2023): A cadet alleged degrading hazing, including being bound in a “roasted pig” position with an apple in his mouth. The lawsuit sought over $1 million.
What Roby Families Should Know: Texas A&M handles hazing through its Student Conduct office and Corps regulations. The university’s immense school spirit can sometimes create a “circle the wagons” response to external scrutiny. Aggressive legal representation is often necessary to obtain full transparency.
5.3 University of Texas at Austin
Snapshot for Roby Families: UT Austin is a flagship institution with a highly visible Greek life culture. It also maintains one of the most transparent public hazing violation logs in Texas.
Public Hazing Violations Log: UT’s website lists sanctioned organizations. Examples include:
- Pi Kappa Alpha (2023): New members directed to consume milk and perform strenuous calisthenics. Sanction: probation and mandatory hazing prevention education.
- Various spirit groups and fraternities have been sanctioned for forced workouts, alcohol hazing, and humiliation.
What Roby Families Should Know: This public log is a powerful tool. If your child is hazed by an organization with prior violations, it strengthens claims that the university and the national organization had notice of a dangerous pattern. UT cases may involve UTPD, Austin Police, and Travis County courts.
5.4 Southern Methodist University (SMU)
Snapshot for Roby Families: SMU is a private, affluent university with a dominant Greek life scene. As a private institution, it has less public transparency than state schools.
Documented Incident:
- Kappa Alpha Order (2017): The chapter was suspended for hazing involving paddling, forced drinking, and sleep deprivation.
What Roby Families Should Know: SMU promotes anonymous reporting tools. In litigation, discovery is key to uncovering internal reports and prior incidents that are not publicly posted. The university’s private status does not shield it from liability for negligence.
5.5 Baylor University
Snapshot for Roby Families: Baylor’s Christian identity and history of high-profile scandals create a complex backdrop for hazing issues.
Documented Incident:
- Baylor Baseball Hazing (2020): 14 players were suspended following a hazing investigation.
What Roby Families Should Know: Baylor, like SMU, is a private university. Its emphasis on community can sometimes conflict with the transparency required to root out abuse. Legal action may be necessary to obtain a full accounting.
6. Fraternities & Sororities: Connecting National Patterns to Texas Chapters
The fraternities and sororities on Texas campuses are chapters of national organizations. These nationals have extensive histories—they write anti-hazing policies precisely because they have paid millions for hazing deaths and injuries across the country.
Our Texas Hazing Intelligence Engine: Mapping the Ecosystem
To effectively represent families, we maintain a proprietary data engine tracking Greek organizations across Texas. This includes public records on over 125 Texas-registered Greek entities (house corporations, alumni chapters) from IRS filings, and data on 1,423 Greek-related organizations across 25 Texas metros.
For example, our data includes entities like:
- Beta Nu Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Housing Corporation Inc – EIN 46-2267515 – Frisco, TX 75035
- Pi Kappa Phi Delta Omega Chapter Building Corporation – EIN 37-1768785 – Missouri City, TX 77459
- Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity – Epsilon Kappa Chapter – EIN 74-6064445 – Nederland, TX 77627
This depth of knowledge means we don’t start from zero when investigating a case. We know how to trace the corporate and insurance structures behind the Greek letters.
National Organizations with Notorious Histories at Texas Schools
- Pi Kappa Alpha (Pike): Responsible for the Stone Foltz death at BGSU. Has chapters at UH, Texas A&M, UT, SMU, Baylor.
- Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE): Involved in multiple deaths nationwide and the Texas A&M chemical burns case. Has chapters at UH, Texas A&M, UT, SMU.
- Pi Kappa Phi: Responsible for the Andrew Coffey death at FSU and is the defendant in our active Bermudez case at UH.
- Phi Delta Theta: Responsible for the Max Gruver death at LSU. Has chapters at UH, Texas A&M, UT, Baylor.
When a Texas chapter repeats the same dangerous “tradition” that caused a death in another state, it demonstrates foreseeability. Courts can hold the national organization liable for failing to adequately supervise, train, or discipline its chapters to prevent these known patterns.
7. Building a Case: Evidence, Damages, and Strategy
Pursuing a hazing case requires a meticulous, strategic approach against defendants who have significant resources and experience in defense tactics.
Critical Evidence in the Digital Age
- Digital Communications: GroupMe, WhatsApp, iMessage, Discord, and fraternity-specific apps are the modern record of hazing. We work with digital forensics experts to recover deleted messages.
- Photos & Videos: Content posted on Instagram, Snapchat, or TikTok, or stored on phones.
- Internal Organization Documents: Pledge manuals, “big brother” instructions, meeting notes.
- University Records: Prior conduct violations for the same organization, obtained through discovery or public records requests.
- Medical Records: Documenting the physical and psychological injuries is non-negotiable. This includes ER reports, mental health diagnoses of PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
- Witness Testimony: Other pledges, former members, roommates, and bystanders.
We have a detailed video on using your phone to document evidence that can be critical in the immediate aftermath.
Recoverable Damages
In a civil lawsuit, families may seek compensation for:
- Economic Damages: All medical bills (past and future), lost wages, lost educational costs (tuition for semesters missed), and diminished future earning capacity if injuries are permanent.
- Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, humiliation, loss of enjoyment of life.
- Wrongful Death Damages: Funeral costs, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship for families.
- Punitive Damages: In cases of egregious conduct, to punish the defendants and deter future behavior.
Overcoming Institutional Defense Tactics
We anticipate and counter common defenses:
- “The Pledge Consented”: Texas law voids this defense. We demonstrate the coercive power imbalance.
- “It Was a Rogue Chapter”: We use national pattern evidence and prior incidents to show the national organization knew or should have known.
- “It Happened Off-Campus”: Liability is based on control and sponsorship, not just property lines.
- “We Have Anti-Hazing Policies”: We prove the policies were window-dressing, not enforced.
- Insurance Coverage Fights: Our attorney, Mr. Lupe Peña, spent years as an insurance defense attorney. He knows how insurers try to deny claims under “intentional act” exclusions, and how to fight back.
8. Practical Guides & FAQs for Roby Families
For Parents: Warning Signs and Action Steps
Warning Signs:
- Unexplained injuries, bruises, or burns.
- Extreme exhaustion, sleep deprivation.
- Sudden personality changes: anxiety, depression, withdrawal.
- Secretive behavior about group activities.
- Constant, anxious phone use related to group chats.
- Requests for large sums of money with vague explanations.
What to Do If You Suspect Hazing:
- Talk Calmly: Ask open-ended questions. “Have any activities made you uncomfortable?” “Are you safe?”
- Prioritize Health: Seek medical and psychological care.
- Preserve Evidence: Help your child screenshot messages and photograph injuries.
- Report Strategically: Consult with an attorney before making formal reports to understand the implications.
- Contact an Attorney: Do this early. We can guide you through interacting with the university and police while protecting your child’s rights.
For Students: Is This Hazing? How to Get Out Safely.
- Trust Your Instincts: If it feels degrading, dangerous, or coerced, it likely is hazing.
- Your Safety Comes First: In an emergency, call 911. Texas law provides protections for those who call for help.
- You Have the Right to Quit: Send a clear, written resignation (email/text) to the chapter president. You do not owe them an in-person meeting.
- Document Everything: Keep records of everything that happens.
Critical Mistakes That Can Harm a Case
Our video on client mistakes that can ruin your injury case covers this in depth. Key errors include:
- Deleting digital evidence (messages, photos).
- Confronting the organization directly, giving them a head start to destroy evidence and lawyer up.
- Signing university settlement offers without having an attorney review them.
- Posting about the incident on social media, which defense attorneys will scour for inconsistencies.
- Waiting too long. Texas has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury, but evidence and memories fade fast. Watch our video on Texas statutes of limitations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can we sue a public university like UH or Texas A&M?
A: Yes, though sovereign immunity provides some protection. Exceptions exist for gross negligence, Title IX violations, and when suing employees in their personal capacity. These cases are complex and require experienced counsel.
Q: What if it happened at an off-campus house or Airbnb?
A: Location does not absolve liability. Nationals and universities can still be responsible based on their connection to and control over the activity. The Pi Delta Psi case in Pennsylvania is a prime example of off-campus liability.
Q: How much does it cost to hire your firm?
A: We work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay no upfront fees or costs. We only get paid if we successfully recover money for you. Learn more in our video explaining how contingency fees work.
Q: Will my child’s name be dragged through the news?
A: We prioritize our clients’ privacy. Most cases settle confidentially before trial. We can seek protective orders and use other legal tools to minimize public exposure.
