🛡️ Hazing Victims in Curry County, New Mexico: Your Legal Rights and How We Can Help

🚨 Hazing Doesn’t Stop at State Lines — Neither Does Justice

If you or your child has been a victim of hazing in Curry County, New Mexico, you’re not alone. The same fraternities, sororities, and organizations that have been exposed for dangerous hazing practices in Texas and across the nation operate right here in New Mexico. What happened to Leonel Bermudez at the University of Houston — waterboarding, forced exercise until kidney failure, and physical abuse — is happening at institutions near Curry County right now.

At Attorney 911, we are actively litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston. This isn’t just a case — it’s a movement to end hazing culture and hold institutions accountable. Curry County families deserve the same aggressive representation we’re bringing to Texas.

🔍 What Is Hazing? Curry County Parents Need to Know

Hazing is not harmless tradition. It’s not team-building. It’s not “just part of college.”

Under New Mexico law and most state laws, hazing includes:

✅ Physical abuse — beatings, paddling, branding, forced exercise to exhaustion
✅ Forced consumption — alcohol, drugs, food until vomiting
✅ Psychological torture — humiliation, degradation, sleep deprivation
✅ Sexual abuse — forced nudity, sexual acts, carrying sexual objects
✅ Waterboarding/drowning — simulated drowning (a form of torture)
✅ Servitude — forced cleaning, driving, errands for members

In Curry County and across New Mexico, hazing is illegal — and it’s often criminal.

💔 The Hazing Crisis in Curry County and Beyond

The Case That Shows What’s Happening Near Curry County

Leonel Bermudez wasn’t even a student at the University of Houston yet. He was a “ghost rush” — a prospective member expected to transfer for the Spring 2026 semester. And yet, Pi Kappa Phi subjected him to:

• Waterboarding with a garden hose — simulated drowning
• Forced to eat until vomiting — then forced to keep exercising
• 500 squats, 100 pushups, bear crawls, 100-yard crawls — until he collapsed
• Struck with wooden paddles
• Humiliated — forced to carry sexual objects, strip in cold weather
• Sleep deprived — forced to drive fraternity members at all hours

The result? He was hospitalized for three nights and four days with rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure.

This happened in Texas. But the same fraternities operate near Curry County. The same negligence exists at New Mexico institutions. And the same culture of silence protects the abusers.
