… case. One of the more disgusting frat bro events this blog has covered over the years (the most disgusting of course was the Tucker Carlson/JD Vance beer fest), the pitiable death of Timothy Piazza at the hands of sadists at Penn St has inspired anti-hazing legislation, but it has also generated long years of appeals and delays in the hugely deserved sentences given to the degenerates who let the guy die.
State prosecutors said he was served 18 drinks in 82 minutes and then suffered life-ending head and abdominal injuries when he fell... Piazza was found unconscious in a fraternity house basement the day after the event, but emergency medical responders weren’t summoned for 40 minutes.
Details? How he was left unconscious all those hours? You don’t wanna know. Forty minutes? You can see their dilemma. No booze allowed and hey then how come this dude’s dead of alcohol poisoning? Let him lie there and maybe he’ll sprout in a few years.
Vomiting, bruised, in agony, his limbs literally stiffening in front of his fellow drunks’ eyes, Piazza attracted little attention beyond mocking laughter, Snapchatting, and rough, random efforts to change his position so he wouldn’t choke on his vomit.
******************************
More than 1,000 counts have been brought against 18 members in the largest criminal indictment against a fraternity and its members in US history...
Video played in court showed that Piazza collapsed just before 11.30pm but no-one came to his assistance.
He was then seen repeatedly collapsing as he attempted to crawl, rolled around the floor, vomited in his sleep and went in-and-out of consciousness over the course of the next eight hours.
As the hours passed he was body slammed into a couch by one frat member, had a beer or multiple beers dumped on him by another and later lay comatose while one young man threw his shoes at the visibly inebriated college student...
A fraternity brother who was present following that first fall revealed in an interview that he was thrown against a wall when he tried to help Piazza, a claim that is supported by footage shown in court.
Kordel Davis could be seen making animated gestures after seeing Piazza lying on the couch, at which point he is slammed into a wall by another member of the fraternity.
