Maryland Hazing Injuries Under the Stop Campus Hazing Act: What the New Federal Law Means for Your Family The phone call that changes everything does not come with a warning label. A hospital social worker says your son was brought in unconscious after a university event. A roommate tells you your daughter collapsed during a pledging ritual. Or the call that no parent is prepared for — the one from a dean, or a police officer, telling you your child did not survive. You are sitting in a waiting room or standing in a kitchen at 2 a.m., trying to understand how a school you trusted let this happen. That is the moment you are in right now, and that is who we are writing to. We are Attorney911 — trial lawyers who take hazing injury and wrongful death cases — and what follows is everything the law now says about your rights, what the university was required to do, what evidence is already disappearing, and exactly what to do in the first 72 hours. None of it is theoretical. The Stop Campus Hazing Act, signed into law on December 23, 2024, changed what universities must track, report, and disclose…

When 800 Colleges Stay Silent: What the Stop Campus Hazing Act Compliance Failure Means for Your Family If you are reading this at 2 a.m., you already know something has gone wrong. Your child came home from a semester and told you what happened to them at a fraternity event, a band initiation, a sports team bonding ritual. Or worse — you got the call no parent should ever receive. And now you are searching for answers, and what you are finding is that the school your child trusted may have already broken the law designed to protect them. Here is what we know as of the latest compliance data: more than 800 colleges and universities — 56% of the nearly 1,500 institutions surveyed — missed the December 23, 2025, deadline to publish their Campus Hazing Transparency Reports under the federal Stop Campus Hazing Act. One-quarter of schools provide no hazing information on their websites at all. Only 42% offer an online form to report hazing. This is not a minor paperwork problem. It is a mass failure of the federal law written after decades of student deaths — and if your child was harmed by hazing at a school…

What Happened at 1401 West University — and What It Means for Your Family You are reading this because something happened at the Kappa Sigma house on West University Avenue in Stillwater. Maybe your son came home from a pledge event and was not the same. Maybe you got a call from the hospital. Maybe you are the student yourself, sitting alone with a injury you have not told anyone about because the people who did it told you it was “tradition” and you believed them — until the news broke that the entire chapter was shut down, and you realized what happened to you was not normal and was not your fault. The Gamma-Psi chapter of Kappa Sigma has been removed from Oklahoma State University. Its national charter has been withdrawn by the international fraternity. The building at 1401 West University — a house affiliated with Kappa Sigma since May 13, 1920, more than 105 years — has been leased to a different entity for a four-year term. The chapter is gone. The members are scattering. That removal is not a slap on the wrist. When a national fraternity revokes a charter that has existed for over a century,…

When a “Tradition” Sends Your Child to the Hospital — Your Rights Under the New Federal Hazing Law at Wichita State You are reading this at a hour when nobody should have to be awake. Your son called from a dorm or a fraternity basement, or a roommate found him unconscious, or a hospital in Wichita called to say your daughter was brought in by ambulance from an initiation event that nobody warned you about. The university’s “Student Life” office has already called — sounding concerned, sounding helpful, sounding like they are on your side. They are not. They are on the university’s side, and everything they say to you is being guided by people whose first job is to protect the institution’s reputation and its federal funding. Here is the first thing you need to hear, and it is the single most important sentence on this page: on December 24, 2024, federal law changed. The Stop Campus Hazing Act was signed into law that day, and it amends the same statute that governs campus crime reporting at every college in the country — the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. The law now…

The Stop Campus Hazing Act Changes Everything — What It Means for Your Family If you are reading this page, you are likely a parent, a sibling, or a survivor yourself — sitting in a hospital waiting room, standing in a kitchen at 2 a.m. with a death notification still glowing on your phone, or staring at a ceiling wondering whether what happened to your child was a crime disguised as tradition. You already know the answer. What you need now is someone to tell you, in plain language, what the law actually says, what the university and the fraternity are already doing to protect themselves, and what the first moves are that will make or break your case. That is exactly what this page is built to do. The Stop Campus Hazing Act — the first-ever federal anti-hazing legislation — was signed into law after years of advocacy by families who buried their children and then discovered that the university their child trusted had known about the danger all along. The law amends the Clery Act, the same federal statute that requires colleges to disclose campus crime statistics, to force universities to report hazing incidents in their Annual Security…

LSU Fraternity Hazing Death: Your Family’s Rights Under the Max Gruver Act and the Evidence That Is Disappearing Right Now If your child died in a fraternity hazing event at Louisiana State University, the single most important thing we can tell you is also the hardest to hear: the evidence of what happened to your son or daughter is being erased at this moment. The GroupMe messages between fraternity members, the Snapchat streaks that documented the night, the security camera footage from the fraternity house — all of it is on a deletion clock that runs in days, not months. That is why the first thing we do, the day a family calls us, is send preservation letters to every entity and every individual who might hold a piece of the truth. Not next week. Not after the funeral. The day you call. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We are a trial firm based in Houston that takes hazing wrongful death cases in Louisiana and across the country, working with local counsel where the rules require it. Ralph Manginello has spent 27 years in courtrooms, including federal court. Lupe Peña spent years inside a national insurance-defense firm…

The Stop Campus Hazing Act Changed Everything — What the New Federal Reporting Law Means for Your Family If you are reading this page, someone you love was hurt by hazing — or you are afraid they will be. Maybe your son came home from a fraternity event and could not remember how he got the bruise across his ribs.

Maybe you are sitting in a hospital hallway right now, or worse, planning a funeral, and you just learned that a federal law you never heard of might have prevented this.

Virginia Fraternity Hazing Wrongful Death: When the Ritual Kills If you are reading this page, you may be the parent of a child who did not come home from a fraternity event. Or the sibling who got the phone call at 3 a.m. Or the family member who learned, days after the funeral, that what happened was not an accident but a ritual — a ritual designed to break a young person down, run by people who knew exactly what they were doing and did not stop when the breaking went too far. We know the shape of this moment because we sit inside it with families. The grief is so heavy it has its own gravity. The anger has not yet found its direction. And somewhere, already, a fraternity’s insurance adjuster is preparing a narrative that puts your child at the center of their own death. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We are a trial firm that takes wrongful death cases involving fraternity and sorority hazing, and we are currently lead counsel in an active multi-million-dollar hazing lawsuit against a national fraternity and a major university. That case is not this case. But what we learned…

Hazing-National Fraternity Hazing Deaths: Your Family’s Rights Under the New Federal Law The phone call came and the world stopped. Your son — your freshman, the one who was supposed to be finding his way at college, making friends, building a life — is dead or in a hospital bed because a fraternity decided that belonging had to be earned through a ritual that no sane adult would ever permit. You are reading this at an hour when nobody should be awake. The funeral may be over or it may be ahead of you. The fraternity has already called — not to apologize, but to manage what they call “the situation.” Someone used the word “tragic accident.” Someone else said your son “chose to participate.” Every one of those words is designed to protect the organization that killed him, and every one of those words is a lie. We are the trial team at Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We build wrongful-death and catastrophic-injury cases against fraternities, universities, and the people who let hazing happen. On December 24, 2024, the president of the United States signed the Stop Campus Hazing Act into federal law — a law that…

When a Fraternity and a University Know the Danger and Stay Silent — Your Rights After a WSU Hazing Death You are reading this at the hour when the grief is sharpest. Maybe it has been days since the phone call, or maybe it has been months and the shock has hardened into a different kind of pain — the kind that comes from learning that the people who should have protected your child knew the danger was there, had investigated it, had even removed half the chapter for it, and still handed your son a bid and a bottle and sent him into a house they were simultaneously investigating for rape. We know that pain because we sit with families in it. Ralph Manginello has spent 27-plus years in courtrooms, including federal court, and right now our firm is litigating an active fraternity hazing wrongful death case — the Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi / University of Houston lawsuit — that raises the same structural questions this one does. The law that governs a hazing death at Washington State University is not a mystery. The fight is about whether anyone will force the truth into the open before the…
