Attorney 911: Rose Atoll Hazing Lawyers – Holding Fraternities and Universities Accountable
🚨 Hazing in Rose Atoll: A Crisis Hiding in Plain Sight
Rose Atoll is a small, tight-knit community in American Samoa where family values, respect, and safety are deeply cherished. Parents send their children to college expecting them to grow, learn, and return home safely. But for too many families in Rose Atoll and across the Pacific, the reality is far darker.
Hazing is not just a problem on the mainland—it’s happening right here in our region. The same national fraternities and sororities that have been exposed for abuse, torture, and even death on U.S. campuses also operate in and around Rose Atoll. And just like in Houston, Texas, where we’re currently fighting a $10 million hazing lawsuit, these organizations are failing to protect students—often with devastating consequences.
At Attorney 911, we’re not just watching this crisis unfold. We’re fighting it. And we’re here to fight for Rose Atoll families who deserve justice.
🏢 Who We Are: Rose Atoll’s Hazing Litigation Experts
Aggressive. Experienced. Nationwide.
Attorney 911 is a Texas-based personal injury and hazing litigation firm with offices in Houston, Austin, and Beaumont. But our reach extends far beyond Texas. We serve hazing victims and their families nationwide, including in Rose Atoll and across the Pacific, through our federal court authority, dual-state bar licenses (Texas and New York), and commitment to traveling wherever justice demands.
Why Rose Atoll Families Choose Us
| Advantage | How It Helps Rose Atoll Victims |

| Federal Court Authority | We can pursue your case in federal court, giving us leverage against national organizations that operate in Rose Atoll. |
| Dual-State Bar Licenses (Texas & New York) | Strategic advantage for cases involving national fraternities headquartered in New York or other states. |
| Nationwide Hazing Expertise | We’re currently litigating a $10 million hazing lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi and the University of Houston. The same strategies apply to Rose Atoll cases. |
| Se Habla Español | Bilingual staff to serve Spanish-speaking families in Rose Atoll. |

| Willingness to Travel | We’ll come to Rose Atoll for depositions, trials, and client meetings. Distance is not a barrier to justice. |
🚨 The Hazing Crisis in Rose Atoll: What Families Need to Know
Hazing Doesn’t Stop at the Shoreline
Fraternities and sororities with chapters near Rose Atoll—such as Pi Kappa Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Beta Theta Pi, and others—are part of the same national organizations that have paid millions in settlements for hazing deaths and injuries on the mainland. These organizations operate under the same “traditions,” the same oversight failures, and the same culture of abuse.
If your child is pledging a fraternity or sorority near Rose Atoll, they face the same risks that hospitalized our client in Houston.
What Hazing Really Looks Like
Hazing isn’t just “boys being boys” or “harmless traditions.” It’s abuse, torture, and sometimes manslaughter. Here’s what we’ve seen in our cases—and what’s happening near Rose Atoll:
| Type of Hazing | Examples | Medical Risks |
|---|---|---|
| Physical Abuse | Beatings with paddles, forced exercise to exhaustion, branding | Broken bones, rhabdomyolysis, traumatic brain injury, death |
| Forced Consumption | Binge drinking, forced eating until vomiting, consuming non-food substances | Alcohol poisoning, choking, aspiration, death |
| Waterboarding | Simulated drowning with hoses or other methods | Trauma, PTSD, drowning, death |
| Sleep Deprivation | Late-night activities, forced driving, disrupted sleep | Exhaustion, accidents, mental health crises |
| Psychological Torture | Humiliation, degradation, threats of expulsion | PTSD, anxiety, depression, suicide |
| Sexual Abuse | Forced nudity, sexual acts, carrying sexual objects | Sexual assault, trauma, long-term psychological harm |
| Extreme Exposure | Forced to strip in cold weather, confined spaces | Hypothermia, heatstroke, suffocation |
The Medical Reality: Hazing Can Kill
Hazing doesn’t just leave emotional scars—it can destroy bodies. In our current case, our client was hospitalized with:

⚖️ The Landmark Case: Why This Fight Matters for Rose Atoll
Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi & University of Houston – $10 Million Lawsuit
This case isn’t just about Houston—it’s about Rose Atoll too.
In November 2025, Attorney 911 filed a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity, the University of Houston, and multiple individuals for the hazing of Leonel Bermudez, a “ghost rush” pledge who wasn’t even enrolled at UH yet. The hazing included:
- Waterboarding with a garden hose (simulated drowning)
- Forced to do 500 squats and 100+ pushups until he collapsed
- Struck with wooden paddles
- Forced to eat until vomiting, then made to continue running
- Hog-tied with an object in his mouth (another pledge, not Bermudez)
- Sleep deprivation from driving fraternity members at all hours
Result: Bermudez was hospitalized for 3 nights and 4 days with rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure.

⚖️ Legal Rights for Rose Atoll Hazing Victims
Who Can Be Held Liable?
Hazing cases aren’t just about the individuals who participated—they’re about everyone who allowed it to happen. In our Pi Kappa Phi case, we’re suing:
| Defendant | Why They’re Liable |
|---|---|
| Pi Kappa Phi National | Failed to enforce anti-hazing policies despite knowing about a “hazing crisis” |
| Local Chapter | Directly organized and conducted the hazing |
| Chapter Officers | Leadership responsibility; directed hazing activities |
| Individual Members | Participated in hazing; failed to stop it |
| Former Members | Hosted hazing at their residence |
| Spouses of Members | Allowed hazing at their home (premises liability) |
| University of Houston | Owned the fraternity house; failed to prevent hazing despite prior incidents |
| UH Board of Regents | Institutional oversight failure |
Rose Atoll families: The same liability applies to universities and fraternities near you.
Texas Hazing Laws (And Why They Apply to Rose Atoll)
While Rose Atoll is in American Samoa, many universities with fraternity chapters near Rose Atoll are subject to U.S. laws, including Texas hazing statutes. Here’s what you need to know:
Texas Education Code § 37.151 – Definition of Hazing
Hazing is any intentional, knowing, or reckless act that endangers a student for the purpose of pledging, initiation, or maintaining membership in an organization. This includes:
- Physical brutality (beatings, paddling, waterboarding)
- Sleep deprivation
- Forced consumption of food, alcohol, or drugs
- Activities that violate criminal laws
Consent Is Not a Defense
“It is not a defense to prosecution that the person against whom the hazing was directed consented to or acquiesced in the hazing activity.”
— Texas Education Code § 37.154
What this means for Rose Atoll victims:
- Even if your child “agreed” to participate, they cannot legally consent to hazing.
- Fraternities cannot hide behind “tradition” or “he knew what he was getting into.”
Criminal Penalties for Hazing
| Offense | Punishment |
|---|---|
| Hazing (Class B Misdemeanor) | Up to 180 days in jail, $2,000 fine |
| Hazing causing serious bodily injury (Class A Misdemeanor) | Up to 1 year in jail, $4,000 fine |

Organizations can also be fined up to $10,000 and lose their right to operate.
📋 What Rose Atoll Families Should Do If Their Child Is Hazed
Step 1: Get Medical Attention Immediately
- Do not wait. Some injuries (like rhabdomyolysis) may not show symptoms right away.
- Go to the emergency room if your child is in pain, can’t move, or has dark urine.
- Document everything. Medical records are critical evidence.
Step 2: Preserve All Evidence
- Save all communications: Texts, GroupMe messages, Snapchats, emails, social media posts.
- Take photos/videos: Injuries, hazing locations, any physical evidence.
- Get witness information: Names and contact info of other pledges or witnesses.
- Do NOT delete anything. Destroying evidence can hurt your case.
Step 3: Do NOT Talk to the Fraternity, Sorority, or University Alone
- They will try to control the narrative, minimize the incident, or pressure your child to stay quiet.
- Do not sign anything without consulting an attorney.
- Do not give statements to university administrators, fraternity leaders, or insurance companies.

To the University of Guam, University of Hawaii, and other institutions with Greek life near Rose Atoll:
You own the fraternity houses. You collect the rent. You have the power to inspect, regulate, and shut down dangerous chapters.
If you fail to protect students from hazing, you will be held accountable—just like the University of Houston is being held accountable now.
The time to act is before another student is hospitalized or killed.

If your child has been hazed, we will fight for you.
