π¨ The Hazing Crisis Has Reached Conway County, Arkansas
You’ve seen the headlines. You’ve heard the stories. Hazing isn’t just happening at big universities far away β it’s happening right here near Conway County, Arkansas. The same fraternities that waterboarded a student in Houston, forced pledges to drink until they died, and sent students to the hospital with kidney failure operate chapters at universities near Conway County.
This isn’t “tradition.” This isn’t “brotherhood.” This is abuse. This is assault. This is criminal.
And it’s happening to students from Conway County, Arkansas.
π― What Happened in Houston Could Happen in Conway County
BREAKING: We are currently representing a hazing victim in a $10 MILLION lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi fraternity and the University of Houston. Our client was waterboarded, forced to do 500 squats, struck with wooden paddles, and hospitalized with kidney failure from the abuse.
This isn’t just a Houston problem. This is a Conway County problem.

π What Is Hazing? The Legal Definition in Arkansas
Hazing is any intentional, knowing, or reckless act that endangers the mental or physical health or safety of a student for the purpose of initiation, affiliation, or maintaining membership in an organization.
This includes:
- Physical abuse: Beatings, paddling, branding, forced exercise to exhaustion (like 500 squats)
- Forced consumption: Alcohol, food, or other substances (drinking until vomiting, forced eating)
- Psychological torture: Waterboarding, humiliation, threats, sleep deprivation
- Sexual abuse: Forced nudity, sexual acts, carrying sexual objects
- Dangerous activities: Extreme weather exposure, confinement, calisthenics beyond physical limits
In Arkansas, consent is NOT a defense. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the law says consent does not matter.

ποΈ Who Is Liable? Everyone Who Let This Happen
When hazing occurs, multiple parties share responsibility. We pursue every single one:
| Defendant | Why They’re Liable |
|---|---|
| Local Chapter | Directly organized and conducted hazing |
| National Fraternity/Sorority | Failed to supervise; knew about hazing culture |
| University/College | Failed to protect students; owned property where hazing occurred |
| Chapter Officers | Leadership responsibility; directed hazing activities |
| Individual Members | Participated in or failed to stop hazing |
| Alumni | Allowed hazing at their homes; premises liability |
| Insurance Companies | Coverage for institutional liability |
These defendants have deep pockets. Universities have endowments. National organizations have millions in assets. We know how to pursue them.
π° What Is Your Conway County Hazing Case Worth?
Hazing cases result in multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts. Here are real examples:
| Case | Fraternity | University | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stone Foltz | Pi Kappa Alpha | Bowling Green State | $10.1 MILLION |

Conway County families: Your case could be worth millions.

β Frequently Asked Questions for Conway County Families
1. How much does it cost to hire Attorney 911 for a hazing case?
$0 upfront. We work on contingency β we don’t get paid unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery, so Conway County families pay nothing unless we secure compensation for you.
2. What if my child was partially at fault?
Arkansas follows comparative negligence rules. As long as your child was 50% or less at fault, they can still recover compensation. We fight to minimize any fault attributed to the victim.
3. How long do I have to file a lawsuit?
Arkansas has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury cases. This means you have 2 years from the date of the hazing incident to file a lawsuit. Do not wait β evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and your rights expire.
4. Will my child have to go to court?
Most cases settle out of court. However, if the fraternity or university refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are prepared to take your case to trial. We have extensive trial experience and will fight for maximum compensation.
5. Can we sue if the hazing happened off-campus?
Yes. Hazing is illegal whether it occurs on or off campus. We can pursue claims against the fraternity, its members, and any property owners who allowed hazing to occur.
6. What if the fraternity says my child consented?
Consent is not a defense in Arkansas. The law explicitly states that consent does not matter in hazing cases. Even if your child “agreed” to participate, the fraternity can still be held liable.
7. Can we sue the university?
Yes, if the university knew or should have known about the hazing. Universities have a duty to protect students. If they failed to act despite knowledge of hazing risks, they can be held liable.
8. What if my child is afraid of retaliation?
We understand this fear. We protect our clients from retaliation and intimidation. Your safety and privacy are our top priorities.
9. How much is our case worth?
Every case is unique. Factors that affect case value include:
- Severity of injuries
- Medical expenses
- Psychological trauma
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Institutional knowledge (did they know it was happening?)
- Pattern of abuse (was this isolated or systemic?)
Conway County hazing cases can be worth millions. We will evaluate your case and pursue maximum compensation.

Act immediately:
- Get medical attention
