#NBCNews #AdamOakes #Hazing
Glad to see justice served. Hazing is no longer a good natured exercise , it is an act of cruelty.
Did they catch the lunatic that's been practicing his cruelty on general public for years now? Or is he still doing it with federal protection!
Uh... arrested =/= convicted. They could (all) be released if anything.
Act of stupidity.
@@HiddenRoar True but the fact they were convicted will put a stain on their records. They will have a harder time finding a job
Life lesson: no club or group is worth dying over.
@Lucy Lucy or all those signing up for the military, cops or Gov. jobs.
Stop Join Fraternities!!!!
How many Men have Lived and Died for the Great Clan Ross (which Clan Ross is all the Gentry from), we make and break Nations, and I would Savagely ill you if Wilbur Ross so Willed It! Get your Affairs in order, I am sending Wilbur a Screen Shot of your Comment!
At any moment I am Ready to Grab mee Kilt and Claremore to Fight the English! The Great Clan Ross!!!
Basically how you got America was that last one if yee only knew History, and How Ross Surrounded Washington!
JUST ANOTHER REASON WHY NOT TO JOUN A FRATERNITY
FN DORK CITY GEEKS
Fraternities are for Weeklings, the Great Clan Ross has been reformed from Clan Ross the former Gentry of the Great Clan Ross and Via a Sept Crowley we have begun our Break Away Civilization! And the Cloning of the War Master and Chief the 1st Earl of Ross Fearchar has begun! We will make a Great Army of the War Master Fearchars Clones, and over Run you all! Now that is what Clans Do! While Fraternities just Haze each other, while we plot to Raze the World and Rebuild it in the Image of Ross!
Or have them in any higher education facility.
It's a breeding ground for cruelty, exclusion, and privilege.
They are all cults.
The accused guys look like lunatics and the victim looks so lovable.
That's pretty much how life works. We "lovable" looking people are always the victims.
I thought the same thing, Kate. So sad! I hope the family can get justice 🙏🙏🙏
Judgy?
I agree they look like gene splice lunatics. Mental patients.
thats because its mug shots.....
Makes room for people who actually want to use college to have a better life for themselves than their parents did. Not morons who just want to use an imaginary power against people.
It's NOT imaginary... It's professional covert bullying and intimidation if you threaten their false sense of themselves.
A few years ago a friend of mines son was bullied his entire school career, every day as much as these people could and then hazed his first year of college in which he was jumped by multiple men and it left him incredibly beaten. This all led to him hanging himself two days later after the hazing. He felt like he was never going to be able to live his life without fear of being beaten or made fun of so he hanged himself. None of these bullies were punished at all due to them being "Athletes". Still to this day I wish I could've helped him understand he had people who loved him and that it will get better. People are moreso disgusting these days instead of nice and I hate it.
The colleges and universities MUST put an end to this barbarianism.
They enable it or the fraternity kids’ daddies will stop donating money. That’s MUCH more important than student safety.
It's collage this clubs will not go away.
I agree its Just the morons running it thats the problem.
May they stay in jail for a very long time
RIP Robert Champion, Timothy Piazza, Stone Foltz, Adam Oakes and others whose names I don't know. The colleges and universities MUST put an end to this barbarianism.
Prayers and sympathy to the Oakes family.
@Corey Sprague yeah, these frat boys won’t get to breed in prison. They’re shallow end of the gene pool anyway.
I was delighted to go to a school without any fraternities or sororities. Didn’t even have to bother with that nonsense.
Princeton called them eating houses but they still had hazing.
What kind jacked up names are those? 🤣 Wow
How sad my condolences to the families and friends.
These little college punks are gonna suffer in years to come. Guarantee
It is called appropriate Karma
No, their parents- who did the same things - will whine to the Congress members they own.
It'll be a good day When cannabis is legal nationwide And alcohol is hard to come by.
It was like that during prohibition. But then..
“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.” John Ehrlichman
Yeah, because prohibition really worked in the past!! 😂😂 Learn some history, kid
@@RomanesEuntDomus. Make it work - it's a lot more helpful to improving public health that forcing them to inject some concoction. Ban alcohol, tobacco and drugs, including feel-good pharma drugs and watch the difference through years
Agree. This could never happen with marijuana. Alcohol is a very dangerous drug.
Right? 🙄
We don't know why any of the traditionally known to cause harm with hazing fraternities and sororities are so desirable if you must purchase acceptance by permitting yourself to be mistreated
I still dont know why fraternities still exist
Good, justice somewhere, you know I find it amazing that alcohol is still so accepted when it kills so many every year, while weed will just get you tired and hungry and its scheduled in the same league as herion. Something is very wrong with this picture man. Alcohol shouldnt be more widely available than weed. Condolences to that family. No one should lose their kid to alcohol by some drunk frat scum.
Nothing wrong with having a relaxing drink or two
Just aweful
RIP
Hope those idiots learn a lesson!
Lord of the Flies. This stuff never ends. They should close the university.
no just frat houses
@@pohakumana4288 It happens every year for 40 years of my life. Shut down the school and the frat. Major pressure needs to be applied.
sad, poor guy was just wanting to make some new friends and fit in...rest in a better place bud
I will probably get a lot of hate for this but am I the only one who thinks that the "victim" made that choice?? The victim made the choice to drink an un-godly amount of alcohol just to fit in? By that age, you should KNOW what kind of harm that can do to you. The whole situation is sad
REALLY. This is still happening?!?
Frats/Sororities where people buy friends to feel accepted
These college guys show ZERO REMORSE
Frat kids are the worst.
Hazing is ridiculous
Criminal
His poor family. Fraternities should be banned on all campuses.
And take away faith organizations first.
They'll all take pleas for a year of probation and not one of them will spend a day in federal prison when all of them should be charged with first degree murder.
Yeah those guys instantly look like trouble anyway. Hazing is just another word for torturing another human being. They come up with these alternate words to water down what it is. So sick of this bullying and harassment just cause they may not fit the profile gangs want.
So while crisis come's up .Bitcoin climbs lol 😆 Now i say crypto is better than stock investing in crypto should be in every wise individual to do list .
Investments are the stepping stone to success,investing is what creates wealth
@@@@@@ Most intelligent words I've heard today
Crypto is the future
Wow!!! imagine trading and stocking up Bitcoin from now till then!!!
Trading crypto has been a lucrative way of making money
@@fredrickpatrick9354
Stocks are good too
Horrible, he was wonderful young man. Those charged look like a bunch of thugs.
So sad
I was once almost wanting to be in the fraternity. After looking at some over absurd initiation processes, I've soon realize it's indoctrination, power over other peoples fears and them thinking that you want this treatment because you want to be in a group. It's not a social club anymore ladies and gentlemen. I'm glad I walked
Very Sad!
Binge drinking is a huge problem on college campuses. This is not the first, nor the last, student to die from alcohol poisoning. Be it hazing or partying. My son is in the military & they also deal with both young men & women getting intoxicated to the point of needing medical assistance. It's sad.
tougher laws for young people especially college students, young people are soft, tougher laws will straight out their reckless behaviors
why do things like this happen? Because there is pure evil and wickedness that many turn a blind eye to. Where has humanity gone?
Where have we been is the question.
@@mixtapeweezy6871 yes!
Humans will become important when we are scarce.
Fraternities and sororities are worthless; keep your head down and pursue your degree and "fitting in" doesn't matter when you're an adult.
Still happening, really.
He was dying to be accepted and then he did smh
How are they in college?
Waaaa. Such teary spéech. How many books??
Why is hazing even allowed? How is this something possible?
Unforgivable. Why hasn’t hazing been made illegal yet? Hundreds of young men have died due to this stupidity and nonsense. Make it ILLEGAL already!
they f*ckd it up for everybody, g*da*m*tt!
that kid looked like a nice kid, but the house failed its members, it needs to close not temporary but indefinitely.
Those kids look crazy !
arrest his parents.
I have no mercy for hazing!!!
Sorry. F0r. Your. Lost. What they. Did. Was. M0t Right. Ian. Fr0me. Suffolk VA.
" unlawful hazing " is that really a crime of the Virginia penal code ?
COLLEGE GANGS GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER #HATECRIME #DEATHSENTENCE ....IM SO SORRY ADAM WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUL.
Her son reminds me of my son! AND I FEAR EVERYDAY FOR MY SON! SO HEARTBREAKING!😥😥
Hmmm "your son looks like her son" is NOT a very complimentary thing to post. Guy looks like *Flounder* from the 70's film _Animal House_
Is your son's nickname also _Flounder?_
something like this happened in my country a few years ago. guess what department they came from. college of LAW. my gosh 😑😑😑😑. they're in jail now. all for a stupid fraternity
That’s call bullying
Stop the Hazing. Period!
Evil in the m.o.b I'm sorry for your loss
I hope she sued the university and the students that were involved. Hope they get life sentences and throw away the key. A life so precious end so tragic with no remorse for a human being. These cruel rituals are going to far and need to be banned.
Man that's just a good kid, you can see it in the thumbnail pic. That's sad.
Omg!!! So sad!!!! I'm so upset!!
Y'all quickly move for white folks...smh. I'm sorry for your loss.
His first mistake was pledging Delta Chi. SMH
Kid looks like he was a sweetheart.
Please cover Summer Moon Utah Wells from Hawkins Co TN she has been missing 103 days Hawkins Co Sherrif Ronnie Lawson called off the search after 2 weeks it is all very suspicious
did she no have a personal blog with streaming followers?
@@pohakumana4288 no she is a 5 year old little girl
@@whiteweaver3716 well with no social media/MSM no one knows or cares. That's tech life.
@@pohakumana4288 I am hoping to change that. Which is why I am asking MSM to cover her
@@whiteweaver3716 well you asking in the wrong place, MSM doesn't read their comments. You ever see them answer a comment?
They will die in jail.
Hey NBC how about the record HIGH CORAL REEF 2021,,,,, ANY COMMENT
If kids are doing something that you don’t like or you know is wrong you don’t want them for your friends
Throw the book
if they were just doing cocaine in moderation then they would've all been safe and sound, just a little bit of heart damage but thats part of life.
but they drank alcohol, a very bad drug.
0:45 “Charged with Unlawful hazing of a student!”
Exactly ! That's one stupid charge.Should be accessory to murder.
There needs to be a countrywide address of this topic/problem, maybe even a high school course to educate students before they go to college because too many get hurt. Young guys either die from alcohol poisoning or they hurt young girls in ways they'd never dream of if sober and in their right minds. Clearly all families associated with the situations get hurt. Can the Education Secretary help with a problem of this magnitude?
University higher-ups seem to turn a blind eye while many students ruin their lives not knowing that 1 drink per hour up to so many a day is the max. Not funneling beer or banging out 20 plus shots. Can the First Lady, Jill Biden, make this an initiative? To help young women from being hurt and young men from ruining their lives? America needs change now!
7 months ago?! Why wasn’t this all over media?
RIP Adam
Lock those men up in general population.
Youth of America has gone down the toilet!
Outlaw hazing. It's for bullies and punks.
Seems fraternities are not good. Seems all they do is drink and party and get in trouble
Only in America do people get hazed to enter uni. In Africa ur celebrated
Unfortunately, it happens in other places. I’ve lived in Chile and Spain- it happens in both countries and probably many other parts of the world.
You don’t have to fall into peer pressure
They look so… unremorseful.
Those house's look like fire traps.
They should close fraternities period or at least regulate it.
Fraternities are useless
I want the media to cover this kid’s death THE SAME way as Gabby Petito‼️‼️
I hate these hazing making monsters everywhere. 😡
Hazing is disgusting.
They were never going to let him in that frat, they just wanted to make
A white man suffer. An impossible task, but teach your children to stand up to peer pressure and to
Avoid frats at all cost.
The decision to join a fraternity is voluntary, all the pledges know they may have to eat filth, swim with alligators or god only knows, other challenges. It seems that everyone wants the privilege/rewards of belonging but no one wants to own the personal responsibility or accountability for their actions. Don't blame others for your choices.
I also find arresting people for hazing can be a bit tricky. All these people who were arrested could have been clueless of how the kid was doing since the kid could have possibly been consenting to all the alcohol that was given to him. If someone's gonna get arrested for hazing, I want proof that that person forced someone to drink without their consent.
Stay away from Frat parties 🎊
What happened DRINK DRINK DRINK
Hazing is dangerous
Just stick to paddling people
Why get the guy with a lisp to read the report
And you white is not barbaric!
What’s lawful hazing?
It’s okay to say “NO!” 🚫
Lots of finger pointing here
A bunch of GDIs in the comments

Hey, pst. Hazing is a crime.

What a waste of lives
