Is frat pledge's death hazing or torture?(members of Chi Tau house at Chico State University accused of manslaughter)(Brief Article)
Four fraternity members could be charged with torture in the death of a 21-year-old pledge, according to the judge hearing pretrial motions in the case.
The members of the now-defunct Chi Tau house at Chico State University CA are accused of forcing Matthew Carrington to drink large amounts of water while doing calisthenics in a frigid basement last February as part of an initiation rite. He died of heart failure due to water intoxication.
The defendants were charged with involuntary manslaughter and hazing, which carry a maximum sentence of four years in prison. Defense attorneys claimed the men's actions weren't hazing because the rogue fraternity was unofficial and two of the four were not even students.
