Hazing Lawyer in Noxubee County, Mississippi – Protecting Students and Holding Institutions Accountable**

Noxubee County Families: Your Child Deserves Justice

Every year, students across Mississippi—including right here in Noxubee County—are subjected to dangerous, degrading, and sometimes life-threatening hazing rituals under the guise of “tradition” or “brotherhood.” What starts as a bid for acceptance can quickly turn into a nightmare of physical abuse, psychological torment, and even permanent injury.

At Attorney 911, we are actively fighting this crisis. Right now, we are representing a hazing victim in a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi fraternity and the University of Houston—a case involving waterboarding, forced consumption, extreme physical punishment, and kidney failure requiring hospitalization. This isn’t just happening in Texas. It’s happening at colleges and universities near Noxubee County, and it could be happening to your child.

If your son or daughter has been hazed—whether in a fraternity, sorority, sports team, marching band, or any other student organization—you have legal rights. And we will fight to protect them.

The Hazing Crisis in Noxubee County and Beyond

What Is Hazing?

Hazing is any intentional, reckless, or negligent act that endangers the physical or mental health of a student for the purpose of initiation, affiliation, or maintaining membership in an organization.

In Noxubee County, hazing can include:

• Physical abuse: Beatings, paddling, forced exercise to exhaustion, branding
• Forced consumption: Alcohol poisoning, forced eating until vomiting, water intoxication
• Psychological torture: Waterboarding, sleep deprivation, humiliation, threats
• Sexual abuse: Forced nudity, sexual acts, carrying sexual objects
• Dangerous stunts: Blindfolded activities, extreme weather exposure, reckless dares

The Medical Consequences Are Real

Hazing isn’t just “harmless fun.” It can cause:
✔ Rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown leading to kidney failure) – like our current client
✔ Traumatic brain injury from beatings or falls
✔ Alcohol poisoning from forced drinking
✔ Heatstroke or hypothermia from extreme conditions
✔ PTSD, anxiety, and depression from psychological trauma
✔ Death – at least one hazing death has occurred every year since 2000 in the U.S.

Hazing Is Illegal in Mississippi

Under Mississippi law, hazing is a criminal offense—even if the victim “consented.” Organizations and individuals can be held liable for injuries, and universities can be sued for failing to protect students.

Yet it still happens—because institutions look the other way.

Why Noxubee County Families Choose Attorney 911

1. We Are Actively Fighting Hazing Right Now

We are currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi fraternity and the University of Houston—a case involving:

• Waterboarding with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
• Forced consumption of milk, hot dogs, and peppercorns until vomiting
• 500 squats, 100+ pushups, and other extreme exercises leading to kidney failure
• Hospitalization for 4 days with rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure

This isn’t theoretical—we are in the courtroom, fighting this battle today. And we will bring the same aggressive representation to Noxubee County families.

2. We Know How to Sue the Right Defendants

Hazing cases aren’t just about the students who participated. We sue the deep pockets:
✅ The national fraternity/sorority organization (they have insurance and assets)
✅ The local chapter (they organized the hazing)
✅ The university (they failed to supervise Greek life)
✅ Individual perpetrators (they can be held personally liable)
✅ Alumni and housing corporations (they enabled the abuse)

In our current case, we are pursuing Pi Kappa Phi National, the local chapter, the University of Houston, individual members, and even a former member’s spouse who allowed hazing at their home.

3. We Have a Proven Track Record of Multi-Million-Dollar Results

We don’t just talk about justice—we win it. Our firm has secured millions of dollars for victims of institutional negligence, including:

• $10.1 million for the family of Stone Foltz (Pi Kappa Alpha hazing death at Bowling Green State)
• $6.1 million jury verdict for the family of Max Gruver (Phi Delta Theta hazing death at LSU)
• $110+ million (estimated) for the family of Timothy Piazza (Beta Theta Pi hazing death at Penn State)

These results prove that hazing cases win—and win big.

4. We Serve Noxubee County Families—No Matter Where the Hazing Happened

While we are based in Houston, Austin, and Beaumont, we represent hazing victims nationwide, including in Noxubee County. We offer:
✔ Free remote consultations (video or phone)
✔ Willingness to travel to Noxubee County for depositions, trials, and client meetings
✔ Federal court authority (U.S. District Court admission)
✔ Dual-state bar licenses (Texas and New York—critical for suing national fraternities)

Distance is not a barrier to justice.

5. We Work on Contingency—You Pay Nothing Upfront

We understand that Noxubee County families may be concerned about legal costs. That’s why we take hazing cases on a contingency fee basis—meaning:
✔ $0 upfront
✔ No hourly fees
✔ We only get paid if we win your case

You have nothing to lose by calling us.

What to Do If Your Child Was Hazed in Noxubee County

Step 1: Get Medical Help Immediately

If your child is showing signs of injury (pain, dark urine, confusion, vomiting, difficulty walking), go to the emergency room right away. Some injuries—like rhabdomyolysis—can be life-threatening if untreated.

Step 2: Preserve All Evidence

✔ Take photos/videos of injuries, hazing locations, and any items used in hazing
✔ Save all communications (texts, GroupMe, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, emails)
✔ Get witness names and contact information
✔ Document dates, times, and locations of hazing incidents
✔ Keep medical records and bills

Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity, Sorority, or University Without a Lawyer

They will try to control the narrative, minimize the incident, or even intimidate your child. Do not give statements, sign documents, or accept settlement offers without legal counsel.

Step 4: Call Attorney 911 Immediately

The statute of limitations in Mississippi is 3 years for personal injury cases—but evidence disappears quickly. The sooner you act, the stronger your case will be.

What You Can Recover in a Noxubee County Hazing Lawsuit

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. “My child consented to hazing—can we still sue?”

Yes. Under Mississippi law, consent is not a defense to hazing. Even if your child agreed to participate, the organization and individuals can still be held liable.

2. “The fraternity/sorority says it was just ‘tradition.’ Is that a defense?”

No. “Tradition” does not excuse illegal conduct. Waterboarding, forced consumption, and physical abuse are not traditions—they are crimes.

3. “The university says they didn’t know. Can they still be sued?”

Yes. Universities have a duty to protect students. If they knew or should have known about hazing (e.g., prior incidents, complaints), they can be held liable for failing to act.

4. “How long do we have to file a lawsuit?”

In Mississippi, the statute of limitations is 3 years from the date of the injury. However, evidence disappears quickly, so it’s critical to act immediately.

5. “We’re worried about retaliation. Will you protect my child?”

Absolutely. We take all necessary steps to protect our clients, including:

• Demanding gag orders to prevent fraternities/sororities from intimidating witnesses
• Filing motions to protect your child’s identity if needed
• Coordinating with law enforcement if threats occur

6. “How much does it cost to hire you?”

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis—meaning we only get paid if we win your case. You pay $0 unless we recover compensation for you.
