⚠️ The Hazing Crisis in Lincoln County, Colorado
Lincoln County is home to hardworking families who send their children to college expecting them to be safe. But hazing happens at universities near Lincoln County, and the same fraternities and sororities that have killed and injured students nationwide operate right here in Colorado.
The problem is real. The danger is real. And the institutions that should protect your child are failing.
What Hazing Looks Like Near Lincoln County
Hazing isn’t just “boys being boys” or “tradition.” It’s abuse. It’s torture. And it happens at universities near Lincoln County.
In our current case, a student at the University of Houston was:
- Waterboarded with a garden hose — simulated drowning, a form of torture
- Forced to do 500 squats and 100 pushups — until his muscles broke down and he couldn’t stand
- Struck with wooden paddles — physical beating
- Forced to eat until vomiting — then forced to keep running through his own vomit
- Hog-tied with an object in his mouth — another pledge was subjected to this for over an hour
- Hospitalized for 4 days with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure — his body nearly shut down
This isn’t happening in some far-off state. This is the reality of hazing at universities near Lincoln County, Colorado.
🏛️ Who Is Liable for Hazing in Lincoln County?
When hazing happens, everyone who participated or allowed it is responsible. In our current case, we are suing:

❓ Common Questions from Lincoln County Families
Q: My child consented to hazing. Can we still sue?
A: YES. Colorado law explicitly says consent is not a defense to hazing. Even if your child agreed to participate, the organization is still liable.
Q: We’re in Lincoln County. Can you help us?
A: YES. We represent hazing victims nationwide. We offer video consultations, travel for depositions and trials, and pursue cases in federal court. Distance is not a barrier.
Q: The fraternity says it was just “tradition.” Is that an excuse?
