More than 20 members of a Northern Illinois University fraternity face criminal charges after a freshman student was found dead at their house following a night of alleged heavy drinking, Fox News reports.
On the night the student died, he was apparently taking part in some sort of party called “Mom’s Night” or “Parent’s Night” that is allegedly a hazing ritual, the news agency reports.
“Basically, you have to run a gauntlet of liquor, and doing whatever the girls tell you until you find the girl that’s yours,” one student told MyFoxChicago.com. “It basically involves drinking two to five shots of liquor (per girl).”
Arrest warrants were issued Monday for 22 members of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity at the school after 19-year-old David Bogenberger was found dead in November, and police said Monday he died of cardiac arrest due to alcohol intoxication, that his blood alcohol level was about five times the legal limit for driving, Fox News reports.
Five student leaders of the fraternity have been charged with felony hazing, and NIU says the fraternity has been temporarily removed as a recognized student organization, the website states.
