If you’re reading this, your family in Webster County may be facing one of the most terrifying moments of your lives. Your child went off to college, hoping to make friends and build a future. Instead, they were subjected to brutal hazing, leaving them injured, traumatized, or perhaps even worse. We understand what you’re going through. Your child was supposed to make friends; instead, they were tortured. We’re here to help families in Webster County fight back against the fraternities, soror and universities that enable this senseless violence.

At Attorney911, we are not theoretical. We are not hypothetical. We are aggressively fighting hazing right now in Harris County Civil District Court, taking on a major national fraternity and a prominent university. We are representing a young man named Leonel Bermudez in a $10 million lawsuit against Pi Kappa Phi, the University of Houston, and 13 individual fraternity members. This case, filed in November 2025, represents everything we stand for: aggressive representation of hazing victims, data-driven litigation strategy, and unrelenting pursuit of accountability for every entity responsible for hazing injuries.

Hazing is not a harmless rite of passage. It is abuse, plain and simple, and it has devastating consequences. Whether your child attends a university in Georgia, Texas, or anywhere else in the country, the risks of hazing are real. The national fraternities and sororities that operate on campuses near Webster County, such as the University of Georgia, Georgia Southwestern State University, and other institutions across our state, engage in the same dangerous “traditions” that have led to horrific injuries and tragic deaths. We want families in Webster County to know that if their child has been hurt by hazing, we have the experience, the resources, and the unwavering commitment to fight for justice on their behalf. Our commitment to you is that we will use every piece of our intelligence and every ounce of our legal skill to hold those responsible accountable, just as we are doing in the landmark Bermudez case.

The Nightmare Unfolds: Leonel Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi and University of Houston

This is not just another case we mention; it is the centerpiece of our fight. It is a stark warning to parents in Webster County about what hazing truly looks like in our colleges today.

Leonel Bermudez was a young man with a bright future, a “ghost rush” who wasn’t even enrolled at the University of Houston yet, planning to transfer for the upcoming Spring 2026 semester. He accepted a bid to join the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity on September 16, 2025. What followed was a systematic campaign of abuse, torture, and degradation that sent him to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. They did this to someone who was not even their student.

Within weeks of Bermudez’s hazing being reported, the Pi Kappa Phi Beta Nu chapter was suspended, and its members voted to surrender their charter, leading to the chapter’s permanent closure. Criminal referrals were initiated. But that wasn’t enough for Attorney911. We filed a $10 million lawsuit naming not just the national fraternity and its local chapter, but also the University of Houston, its Board of Regents, the fraternity’s housing corporation, and 13 individual fraternity members, including the president, pledgemaster, and even a former member and his spouse where some of the hazing occurred.

This case is new. This case is ongoing. This case demonstrates precisely the kind of firm Attorney911 is: aggressive, thorough, data-driven, and relentless in pursuing accountability for hazing victims. We are actively fighting right now in Harris County Civil District Court. We want parents in Webster County to understand that this is the harsh reality of hazing today, and Attorney911 is the firm that fights back.

As Ralph Manginello told ABC13 in November 2025 regarding Leonel’s recovery, “When he finally made it home, he crawled up the stairs and went to bed. The next day, he was really sore and couldn’t really move. The next day was worse, and the next day, his mom rushed him to the hospital, and he had some kidney failure.” This is the harrowing reality.

Lupe Peña added this crucial perspective to ABC13: “If this prevents harm to another person, that’s what we’re hoping to do. Let’s bring this to light. Enough is enough.” This sentiment guides our pursuit of justice for every hazing victim, including those in Webster County.

You can read more about the Bermudez case in multiple news reports:

• ABC13 Houston reported on November 21-22, 2025: “Abuse and hazing led to hospitalization of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity pledge, lawsuit alleges“
• KHOU 11 published their coverage on November 21, 2025: “10 million lawsuit filed against UH, fraternity over hazing allegations“
• Hoodline also summarized the events on November 22, 2025: “University of Houston and Pi Kappa Phi fraternity face 10M lawsuit over alleged hazing and abuse“

What Hazing Really Looks Like: Beyond “Pranks” to Torture

For too long, hazing has been dismissed as harmless fun, “boys being boys,” or a way to build character. The Bermudez case shatters these dangerous misconceptions. What happened to Leonel was not a prank; it was systematic torture, and we want families in Webster County to clearly understand the severity.

The Hazing Activities Documented in the Bermudez Case Include:

• Waterboarding/Simulated Drowning: Leonel was subjected to “simulated waterboarding with a garden hose,” sprayed directly in the face while doing calisthenics. This despicable act is a recognized form of torture, even deemed a war crime when committed against enemy combatants. To subject a college student to this level of abuse is beyond unacceptable.
• Forced Consumption Until Vomiting: Pledges were forced to consume large amounts of milk, hot dogs, and even peppercorns until they vomited. This forced consumption didn’t end with vomiting; Leonel was then “forced to continue running sprints while clearly in physical distress” and made to “lie in vomit-soaked grass” afterwards.
• Extreme Physical Punishment: This included 100+ pushups, 500 squats, high-volume “suicides” (running drills), bear crawls, wheelbarrows, “save-you-brother” drills, two-mile warmups, and repeated 100-yard crawls. He was forced to recite the fraternity creed while enduring this relentless physical torment. The hazing only stopped when he was so exhausted he could not stand without help. The Houston Chronicle also reported instances of pledges “being struck with wooden paddles.” Disturbingly, another pledge even lost consciousness during these forced workouts just two weeks prior to Leonel’s own collapse.
• Psychological Torture and Humiliation: Leonel was forced to carry a fanny pack with objects of a sexual nature at all times. In another incident, a pledge was hog-tied face-down on a table with an object in his mouth for over an hour. Pledges were made to strip to their underwear in cold weather and threatened with physical punishment or expulsion for non-compliance. These acts are designed to break a person down mentally and emotionally, leaving lasting scars long after physical injuries heal.
• Sleep Deprivation and Exhaustion: Pledges were forced to drive fraternity members during the early morning hours, contributing to severe exhaustion that impacted their daily lives.

The Medical Consequences: Rhabdomyolysis and Kidney Failure

Leonel Bermudez spent four days in the hospital diagnosed with severe rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure. Rhabdomyolysis is the breakdown of muscle tissue that releases a damaging protein (myoglobin) into the blood, which can cause acute kidney failure and death. His urine turned brown, a classic sign of muscle breakdown. His creatine kinase levels were alarmingly high. This severe condition requires intensive medical intervention and can lead to permanent kidney damage or the need for dialysis. Ralph Manginello has specific expertise in rhabdomyolysis hazing cases, allowing us to deeply understand and articulate the full extent of this devastating injury.

This is not some relic of the past. This is what hazing looks like today, in Texas, at universities just like those your children from Webster County might attend. It’s violent, it’s dangerous, and it’s illegal.

Who Is Responsible: Holding Every Entity Accountable

When hazing incidents like Leonel’s occur, fraternities and universities often attempt to deflect blame or minimize their responsibility. But at Attorney911, our data-driven approach ensures that every single entity that played a role in the hazing, or enabled it to occur, is held accountable. Webster County families deserve to know that we peel back every layer to find every liable party.

From the Bermudez case, we are pursuing liability from:

• The Local Chapter (Pi Kappa Phi Beta Nu): This is the direct perpetrator, the group that organized and conducted the hazing. Their officers, such as the president and pledgemaster, bear direct responsibility for leading and orchestrating the abuse.
• The National Organization (Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity): National fraternities like Pi Kappa Phi have a duty to supervise their local chapters, enforce anti-hazing policies, and ensure a safe environment for new members. In this case, Pi Kappa Phi’s immediate suspension and dissolution of the UH chapter after the incident indicate they knew the conduct was deeply wrong. KHOU 11 reported that the national organization was alleged to have “enabled the harmful environment by failing to enforce anti-hazing rules and policies despite knowledge of ‘a hazing crisis.'” This demonstrates a pattern of negligence that stretches to their national headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina. National organizations have deep pockets, with millions in assets and liability insurance, making them prime targets for serious litigation.
• The University (University of Houston and UH Board of Regents): The University of Houston owned and controlled the fraternity house where much of the hazing took place. Universities have a fundamental duty to protect their students and to regulate organizations operating on their campuses. They have the power to enact and enforce anti-hazing policies, inspect properties, and intervene when dangerous activities are suspected. The fact that UH owned the property where Leonel was waterboarded creates a direct premises liability claim against them. Furthermore, the University of Houston itself had a prior hazing hospitalization in 2017 involving another fraternity (Pi Kappa Alpha), showing they had institutional knowledge of the problem on their campus and failed to prevent a recurrence.
• The Housing Corporation (Beta Nu Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Housing Corporation Inc): Often, separate corporate entities own fraternity houses. These housing corporations have a responsibility to ensure their properties are safe and not used for illegal activities. We track these entities, such as Beta Nu Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Housing Corporation Inc (with EIN 462267515 in Frisco, Texas, as listed in IRS B83 public filings), to ensure no stone is left unturned.
• Individual Perpetrators: Beyond the organizational entities, we are also suing 13 individual fraternity members, including the president, pledgemaster, risk manager, and even a former member and his spouse who allegedly hosted some of the hazing activities at their residence. Each person who actively participated in, directed, or enabled the hazing can be held personally and financially liable for the harm caused. The Stone Foltz case precedent vividly illustrates this, where the former chapter president was held personally liable for a $6.5 million judgment.

This multi-faceted approach ensures that we target all responsible parties, from the individual students who inflicted the harm to the large institutions that allowed it to happen. These institutions — national fraternities and universities — have significant financial resources that can provide the compensation that Webster County families deserve for their immense suffering.

What These Cases Win: Multi-Million Dollar Proof

For Webster County families grappling with the aftermath of hazing, understanding the potential for meaningful financial recovery is crucial. These are not small claims; these are multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements that send a clear message: hazing costs dearly. We have the receipts, and these cases prove that justice, and significant compensation, is achievable. The same legal strategies and precedents that have secured these massive awards for families across the nation can be applied to hazing cases for victims in Webster County.

Some of the landmark cases that pave the way for our aggressive litigation strategy include:

• Stone Foltz – Bowling Green State University / Pi Kappa Alpha (2021): Totaling over $10.1 million, this case involved a forced alcohol hazing ritual that led to Stone Foltz’s death from alcohol poisoning. The university paid $2.9 million, while the national fraternity and individuals settled for $7.2 million. Most recently, in December 2024, a criminal court judgment ordered Daylen Dunson, the former chapter president, to pay $6.5 million in personal liability. This proves that individual perpetrators can face massive financial consequences. Our $10 million demand in the Bermudez case is directly in line with these substantial precedents.
• Maxwell Gruver – Louisiana State University / Phi Delta Theta (2017): A jury awarded the Gruver family a $6.1 million verdict after Maxwell died from extreme alcohol poisoning during a hazing event known as “Bible Study,” where pledges were forced to drink heavily for incorrect answers. This case sent a powerful message to fraternities and led to the “Max Gruver Act,” making hazing a felony in Louisiana.
• Timothy Piazza – Penn State University / Beta Theta Pi (2017): Timothy Piazza died from a traumatic brain injury and internal bleeding after being forced to consume 18 drinks in 82 minutes and subsequently falling down stairs. Fraternity members waited 12 hours before calling 911. The settlements in this case were confidential but estimated to be well over $110 million, leading to the “Timothy J. Piazza Antihazing Law” in Pennsylvania. This case, documented by security cameras, demonstrates how compelling evidence can lead to monumental accountability.
• Andrew Coffey – Florida State University / Pi Kappa Phi (2017): Andrew Coffey died from acute alcohol poisoning during a “Big Brother Night” event where he was forced to drink an entire bottle of bourbon. This is particularly devastating for Pi Kappa Phi, as it’s the same national organization involved in our current Bermudez case. This means Pi Kappa Phi National had actual knowledge of a deadly hazing incident within its ranks eight years before Leonel Bermudez was hospitalized but evidently failed to implement effective preventative measures.
• Adam Oakes – Virginia Commonwealth University / Delta Chi (2021): This case, settled in October 2024 for over $4 million, involved another hazing death from forced alcohol consumption. The initial lawsuit sought $28 million, highlighting the aggressive demands made in these suits. Six fraternity members ultimately pleaded guilty or no contest to hazing charges.

These cases, both those resulting in death and those involving severe injury, prove that institutions and individuals are being held financially responsible for the devastating consequences of hazing. Our strategy for Webster County hazing victims is rooted in these successes, demonstrating that while money cannot undo the harm, it can provide critical resources for recovery, compensate for immense suffering, and act as a powerful deterrent to prevent future tragedies.

Texas Law Protects You: Consent is NOT a Defense

For Webster County families, understanding the legal framework that protects victims of hazing is paramount. While our firm is based in Texas, where the Bermudez case is unfolding, anti-hazing laws exist in most states, and critical civil claims apply nationwide. Our federal court authority allows us to pursue cases regardless of where the hazing occurred, ensuring that distance is not a barrier to justice for Webster County families.

Here’s how Texas law, and similar statutes in other states, empowers victims and their families:

Texas Education Code § 37.151-37.157 – Anti-Hazing Law

• Definition of Hazing (§ 37.151): Texas law defines hazing broadly as any intentional, knowing, or reckless act, on or off campus, directed against a student for the purpose of joining an organization, if the act endangers the mental or physical health or safety of the student. This includes physical brutality, sleep deprivation, exposure to elements, calisthenics presenting unreasonable risk of harm (like those causing Leonel Bermudez’s rhabdomyolysis), forced consumption of substances, and activities violating the Penal Code. The actions taken against Leonel Bermudez – waterboarding, forced extreme exercise, physical assaults – clearly fall under and violate multiple elements of this definition.
• Criminal Penalties (§ 37.152): Hazing is a crime in Texas. Engaging in hazing can be a Class B misdemeanor, leading to jail time and fines. If hazing causes serious bodily injury (like Leonel’s rhabdomyolysis and kidney failure), it becomes a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine. Hazing that causes death is a State Jail Felony, with penalties up to two years in state jail and a $10,000 fine. The University of Houston spokesperson has already indicated “potential criminal charges” in the Bermudez case.
• Organizational Liability (§ 37.153): Organizations themselves can be held liable. If an organization condones or encourages hazing, or if its officers or members participate in hazing, the organization can face fines up to $10,000, denial of operating privileges, and forfeiture of property. This means both the local chapter and the national fraternity can be held accountable, as we are pursuing in the Bermudez lawsuit.
• Consent is NOT a Defense (§ 37.154): This is perhaps the most critical legal point for hazing victims. Texas law explicitly states: “It is not a defense to prosecution for an offense under this subchapter that the person against whom the hazing was directed consented to or acquiesced in the hazing activity.” This means that when fraternities argue, “He agreed to participate,” or “He knew the risks,” the law unequivocally rejects that defense. Coercion, peer pressure, and the desperate yearning to belong negate any true consent, and the law protects victims from such manipulative arguments.

Civil Liability: Beyond Criminal Charges

Even if criminal charges are not filed or do not result in a conviction, Webster County hazing victims can pursue civil lawsuits based on several legal theories:

• Negligence: This is the most common claim, asserting that the fraternity, university, or individuals had a duty of care to protect the student, breached that duty through hazing or failure to prevent it, and this breach caused the student’s injuries and damages.
• Premises Liability: If the hazing occurred on property owned or controlled by the university (as in the Bermudez case where UH owned the fraternity house) or a fraternity housing corporation, these entities can be held liable for allowing a dangerous condition (hazing) to exist on their property.
• Negligent Supervision: National fraternities and universities can be held liable for failing to adequately supervise their chapters or Greek life organizations, especially if they knew or should have known about a pattern of hazing.
• Assault and Battery: Individual perpetrators can be sued for intentional physical harm (assault) and unwanted physical contact (battery), such as forced exercise, paddling, or waterboarding.
• Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress: This claim applies when the hazing conduct is so extreme and outrageous that it causes severe emotional anguish, leading to conditions like PTSD or severe anxiety, which many hazing victims experience.

These civil claims ensure that Webster County victims have robust legal avenues to seek justice and compensation, holding all responsible parties financially accountable for the profound suffering caused by hazing.

Why Attorney911: Your Unfair Advantage Against Hazing

When you and your family in Webster County are facing the trauma of hazing, you need a legal team that is not just knowledgeable, but relentless. You need a firm that understands the complexities of hazing litigation, the tactics of national fraternities and universities, and how to win. Attorney911 offers an unfair advantage because we know their playbook from the inside.

Here’s why Webster County families choose Attorney911 to fight for their hazing victims:

• We Are Actively Litigating a $10M Hazing Case RIGHT NOW: We aren’t just talking about hazing; we’re in the trenches. Our landmark Bermudez v. Pi Kappa Phi lawsuit against a national fraternity and the University of Houston is proof of our aggressive, data-driven approach. This active litigation means we have real-time insight into the defenses and strategies used by these powerful institutions, and we bring that cutting-edge experience directly to your Webster County case.
• 25+ Years of Courtroom Battle-Testing: Ralph Manginello, our managing partner, brings over two decades of intense courtroom experience. He has battled massive corporate defendants in cases like the BP Texas City Explosion litigation, demonstrating his capacity to take on major institutions—a crucial skill when facing national fraternities and large universities. This extensive trial experience ensures that we are always prepared to take your case to a jury if necessary, rather than settling for less.
• Former Insurance Defense Attorneys – We Know Their Playbook: Both Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña, our associate attorney, previously worked for insurance companies and national defense firms. Lupe Peña, in particular, spent years at Litchfield Cavo LLP, a nationwide insurance defense firm, where he learned firsthand how insurance companies value claims, strategize defenses, and attempt to minimize or deny payouts. This insider knowledge is invaluable. We know exactly how they think, what motivates them, and how to dismantle their defenses to maximize recovery for our clients. We bring this counter-intelligence directly to your Webster County case.
• Federal Court Authority & Dual-State Bar Admissions: Hazing cases often involve national fraternities or students/universities across state lines. Our admission to the U.S. District Court and dual-state bar licenses (Texas and New York) give us the authority and flexibility to pursue your case in federal courts, which often handle interstate cases, giving us strategic reach beyond state boundaries. This national reach means we can tackle any national fraternity, no matter where they are headquartered, that impacts Webster County students.
• Data-Driven Litigation – We Know Who to Sue: We don’t guess. We maintain one of the most comprehensive private directories of Greek organizations in Texas, including EINs, legal names, addresses, house corporations, alumni chapters, and insurance structures. When hazing happens, we already know who to sue. This intelligence, combined with our deep dive into national hazing incidents, allows us to build an irrefutable case against all liable entities, demonstrating pattern evidence and foreseeability. We knew about Pi Kappa Phi’s housing corporation, Beta Nu Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity Housing Corporation Inc (EIN 462267515 in Frisco, Texas), before we filed suit.
• Hazing-Specific Expertise and Pattern Evidence: We have direct experience with hazing cases, including rhabdomyolysis injuries similar to Leonel Bermudez’s case. We meticulously track national hazing incidents, enabling us to demonstrate a pattern of negligence by national organizations. For example, Pi Kappa Phi had Andrew Coffey’s death in 2017. The University of Houston had a hazing hospitalization in 2017. Both institutions failed to act, leading to Leonel Bermudez’s severe injuries. This pattern evidence is critical for establishing gross negligence and demanding punitive damages.
• Commitment to Webster County Families: While our main offices are in Houston, Austin, and Beaumont, distance is not a barrier to justice. We offer remote consultations via video, and our attorneys are prepared to travel to Webster County for depositions, meetings, and trials whenever needed. We proudly serve hazing victims and their families in Webster County and nationwide.

That’s why we take hazing cases on a contingency basis. You pay us nothing upfront. We only get paid if we win your case. This levels the playing field, allowing you to fight powerful institutions without worrying about hourly legal fees.

• Bilingual Services (Se Habla Español): Our staff is fluent in Spanish, ensuring that Hispanic families in Webster County who have been affected by hazing receive comprehensive, compassionate legal support without language barriers.
• Rhabdomyolysis Expertise: Ralph Manginello has specific expertise in rhabdomyolysis hazing cases, a critical advantage given the severity of Leonel Bermudez’s injuries. Our deep understanding of this complex medical condition allows us to effectively present its long-term impacts and the need for comprehensive compensation.

What To Do Right Now: Actionable Guidance for Webster County Families

If your child in Webster County has been subjected to hazing, the immediate aftermath can be confusing and terrifying. Knowing what steps to take, and what pitfalls to avoid, is crucial in preserving your legal rights and building a strong case. We’re here to guide you through this critical period.

1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention:
Your child’s health and safety are the absolute top priority. Even if injuries seem minor or hidden, or if the concern is primarily psychological, get professional medical help immediately.

• Document Everything: Ensure all injuries, symptoms, and medical visits are thoroughly documented by healthcare professionals. This includes physical injuries, emotional distress, and complaints of pain or discomfort. Leonel Bermudez’s brown urine and subsequent rhabdomyolysis might have gone unnoticed if not for timely medical intervention.
• Follow Medical Advice: Adhere strictly to all doctor’s orders, medications, and therapy recommendations. Any deviation can be used by the defense to argue that injuries were not serious or not related to hazing. As Ralph advises in his video, “Why Seeing a Doctor Right After an Accident Is Critical,” delays can significantly impact your claim.

2. Preserve ALL Evidence – “Document Everything!”:
Hazing entities often move quickly to hide or destroy evidence. You must act faster. As Ralph emphasizes in his video, “Using Your Phone to Document Evidence,” it’s crucial to “Take pictures. Take pictures. Take pictures. Take more pictures than you think you need to.”

• Physical Evidence: Photograph injuries at all stages of healing, any property damage, the location of the hazing incidents (if safe to do so), and any items used in the hazing (e.g., alcohol containers, paddles, degrading objects).
• Digital Communications: SAVE EVERYTHING. This includes text messages, GroupMe chats, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, emails, and any other social media exchanges related to the hazing. Crucially, do not delete anything, even if it seems irrelevant. Deleting messages can be considered spoliation of evidence and severely harm your case.
• Witness Information: Collect names, phone numbers, and any contact details for other pledges, witnesses, or anyone who may have observed the hazing or its aftermath.
• Organizational Documents: Keep copies of any pledge manuals, schedules, rules, “big/little” assignments, or other documents given to your child by the fraternity/sorority or university.
• Financial Records: Maintain meticulous records of all medical bills, therapy costs, lost wages (if applicable), and any educational expenses impacted by the hazing.

3. DO NOT Communicate with the Fraternity, University, or Their Lawyers:
This is critical. Institutions and organizations have legal teams whose primary goal is to protect them, not your child.

• No Statements: Do not give any verbal or written statements to fraternity leadership, university administrators, campus police, or any lawyers representing these entities. Anything you say can and will be used against you.
• No Signatures: Do not sign any documents from the fraternity or university that might waive your child’s rights or release them from liability.
• No Retaliation: Be aware that students who report hazing often face pressure, threats, or social ostracism. We will help you navigate this.

4. STAY OFF Social Media:
As our video, “Don’t Post on Social Media After an Accident,” warns, anything posted online can be used by the defense to undermine your child’s claims.

• Avoid Posting: Do not post anything about the hazing incident, your child’s injuries, or emotions on any social media platform.
• Limit Activity: Be cautious about all social media activity. Even innocent posts about socializing or appearing “fine” can be twisted to suggest your child’s injuries or emotional distress are not as severe as claimed.

5. Contact Attorney911 IMMEDIATELY – TIME IS CRITICAL:
The Texas statute of limitations for personal injury cases, including hazing, is generally two years from the date of injury (or two years from the date of death for wrongful death cases). While this may seem like ample time, it passes quickly, and evidence can disappear. Our video, “Is There a Statute of Limitations on My Case?”, underscores the urgency.

• Free Consultation: Call us right away for a free, confidential consultation. We can assess your Webster County family’s situation, determine the best course of action, and begin the crucial process of evidence collection and legal strategy. Remote consultations are available for Webster County families.
• We Come to You: While headquartered in Houston, we travel as needed for depositions, meetings, and trials, ensuring Webster County families have access to top-tier hazing litigation experts.

By taking these immediate, decisive steps, you can significantly strengthen your child’s case and ensure their best chance at justice and recovery. Do not hesitate. The consequences of delay can be profound.
