Bloomington Indiana Hazing Lawyer — DKE at Indiana University Under Investigation for Hazing You are reading this because you heard the news: Delta Kappa Epsilon at Indiana University has been placed on cease and desist for hazing, effective February 19.

Maybe you are a former member who watched it happen to someone else and has been carrying the silence for months or years. Whatever brought you here at this hour, there are three things you need to hear first, before anything else: What happened to you is not a rite of passage. It is against Indiana law.

Pullman Fraternity Hazing: WSU Sigma Chi Sanctioned — Your Student’s Rights Under Washington’s Sam’s Law You just read that Sigma Chi lost its recognition at Washington State University for a year. Maybe your son or daughter was a pledge this past fall. Maybe they came home different — quieter, jumpy, ashamed of something they won’t talk about. Maybe you drove them to Pullman Regional Hospital at 3 a.m. for alcohol poisoning and were told it was “just college.” Maybe you are the student, reading this on your phone in a dorm room on College Hill, and you are starting to understand that what they did to you was not a tradition. It was a crime. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We are trial attorneys who take catastrophic-injury and wrongful-death cases, and right now we are actively litigating a hazing lawsuit — the kind of case that puts a fraternity and the institution behind it on trial.

The Reality of Hazing at Washington State University If you are reading this page, you already know what happened. A student joined a fraternity at Washington State University looking for brotherhood and belonging. What that student got instead was something the university itself called hazing — a system of control where a new member was required to carry an object at all times under a threat the university described as a “fear of repercussions.” At the same time, the fraternity hosted a party where hard alcohol flowed freely to minors with no ID checks and no wristbands — the most basic safeguards any responsible host would use, simply absent. You may be that student. You may be a parent who found out and is now sitting at a kitchen table at 2 a.m., angry and frightened and unsure what to do. You may be a friend who watched someone change after pledging. Whoever you are, you need to hear three things before anything else. First: what you experienced — the fear, the coercion, the feeling that you had no choice but to comply — is a recognized psychological response to intimidation, not a personal weakness. The university’s own investigation named…

Hazing Death & Alcohol Poisoning: Holding Fraternities Accountable When a Ritual Turns Fatal Your son went to college. He wanted brotherhood, belonging, a place to stand.

When a Fraternity Hazing Ritual Kills Your Child — What the Law Lets Your Family Do About It You are reading this at the worst hour of your life. Your son is dead. He went to join a brotherhood and the brotherhood killed him — with forced drinking, with a ritual designed to break him down, with a room full of young men who watched him stop being responsive and decided to let him “sleep it off” instead of calling for help. Now you are hearing words like “pledge process” and “chapter event” and “alcohol-related incident” from people who are trying to make what happened sound like an accident. It was not an accident. Hazing deaths are never accidents — they are the foreseeable result of a deliberate process, and the law in nearly every state in this country recognizes that. We are Attorney911, and our managing partner Ralph Manginello is currently leading the active $10 million Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi / University of Houston hazing lawsuit in Harris County, Texas.
