@HeatCat_5it's called hazing look it up. These dudes will do anything to get into these fraternities. Thesd are the morons who end up in congress and senate.
That was my thought too while watching this. This isn't creepy, it's frightening to know that this goes on all over the country. Frats and Sors need to be eliminated. It's the "good ol' boys & girls club" that "we ain't in" as George Carlin said.
I would if gotten names of all if the pledges, and the immoral uneducated young men who did this to them, omg nobody lives there? Can't even be honest what tbe he'll do these parents teach their children? No accountability what is so ever? Suspend it permantly!😢
This is horrible police work. Clearly, the white shirt guy is intimidating all of the recruits/victims. He should have been taken upstairs and separated A LONG TIME AGO. Smh.
Absolute facts!!! My god it was hard to watch! I thought that was like day 1 training type course about violence, domestic or otherwise and how important it is if any abuse is even suspected to immediately remove/separate victims from suspected abusers. That fire alarm was a call for help but then couldn’t speak up without Jose or 1 of the others breathing down their necks. Absolutely wild. 🤯
They should have pulled him upstairs, separated the other two, had one downstairs collecting IDs from everyone in that room, pulling a few out asking questions. They would have gotten all the answers they needed that way.
I agree, he was totally completely briefed. All they had to do was be respectful and honest. Yeah, it's a hazing. We throw stuff on the guys. . I didn't know it was illegal in iowa so I'm glad the cops persisted.
This is INFURIATING. I’m a 36 year old woman and I’ve been treated more severely by police while getting a speeding warning. For gods sake - no accountability for these brats.
Pretty sure these are campus cops, not real cops. A real cop sees these guys tied up with blindfolds then everyone else gets arrested for unlawful detainment. Campus cops have no real authority.
Thank you! 35 here 🙋♀️ I think I actually posted a similar comment under someone elses a few weeks back saying those are the most laid back cops I've ever seen in my LIFE. I've been pulled over for not wearing a seatbelt, speeding, dead registration sticker... all harmless offenses that I am FULLY cooperative honest and respectful about the officers just doing their jobs even after getting my tickets.. This is some WILD behavior going on with the police as much as it is with the frat 😲
@Elvis_PressPlay420 They looked pretty real to me.. but I'm not from that state so what do I know 🤷♀️ Even if they are just campus.. wouldn't they/shouldn't they get "real" police involved in that situation 🤔
Exactly my thoughts. 37, been aggressively cuffed for "talking back" at a cop. Locked up for hours just for speaking my mind😂 . I dont understand. Cops shoot and joke people, despite peoples cooperation and these farts just standing there obstructing the whole situation, with a BASEMENT full of young boys clearly too scared to talk. How does this make sense? 0 authority these cops had.
@whitneygeyevu9751 Yep. I never even talked back and I had one who threatened to cuff me for being to smiley ☺️ Not even joking! He took my nervous smile and laughter as disrespect to his authority and not taking the situation seriously. I was polite said yes sir no sir and genuinely scared because it was the first time I had been pulled over. He snapped at me "Wipe that smile off your face unless you want to be put in cuffs and see what jails about". I clearly caught that asshole on a bad day 😅. Whether they are in the right or wrong, it's still not a good idea to piss off the police. These turds walked all over them and made them look stupid 🫨 I don't get it 🤨
That alone tells you the power these entities and "unknow house dads" have...and we all know that one, was not the real house dad 😉 also these cops have their own society/clubs and like to play the weird games too
The One Cop sighing all the time has definitely been through this before and knows that these are all rich kids with powerful parents and it will go nowhere and nothing will be done
Its like the cops were afraid of rich college kids. Everyone in the house should have been directed to come out of the basement and go outside immediately.
I thought that was strange too. They were not being very assertive for cops especially not towards these immoral teens/ young men. They should have been more direct and agressive in the way they approached the situation. Clearly something messed up happened and since hazing is a crime and there was obvious evidence of that, they should have been demanding answers and threatening them with a misdimeanor charge.
@karleebathke6081And illegal! These are our future corrupt politicians, with no loyalty to the constitution, much less the laws found within. and they’re impeding an investigation and should be held responsible. We’re in America, not Greece. Creek life is about taking a knee, and Americans fought war to keep Americans off their knees.
@karleebathke6081 hazing is against the law. It is also against the university rules. They know this and they know that they’re doing wrong. That’s why they’re trying to hide it and keep people from talking..
I did not go so I do not know any of this but could they have thought it was a test? Thats why it took a min? They were scared? Like yeah right their cops lol
@CheekyEvertonI won't go in depth I will explain that portion sorority letters like the letters they choose to represent example there's Delta so that's DST ( DeltaSigmaTheta) there's Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA) and so forth just to name a two....point is I see people choosing to represent letters all the time forgetting there own Letters such as there own name that represents there identity hope this helps.
Why are you letting that punk?In that sweatsuit, control the situation put them in cups because he is obstructing your investigation, he is a punk and he needs to be held accountable
I was wondering about that , the guy in white huffs on his weed vape , chugs his bear and gives them an id that he tells them is fake and he just gets to block the door and wait for them to find who's in charge, hes an adult '21) in a house full of tortured young men. If he was a black guy in a poor neighbourhood this would be a whole different video eh ?
Another indoctrinated clown who bows down to government and believes they can do anything they please. These guys never should have said one word and simply told the costumed clowns to leave. I am not in agreement with what was going on, it's rather childish, but I never would side with government abuse of power. You clowns are so lost. You base everything on emotion and are incapable of seeing the entirety of any situation. I don't like these people, so the Constitution doesn't matter.....duhhhhh.
Not to mention the trauma bonding that goes on there. They get perks in their careers from this so they basically sell their souls for this. I bet there are NO true Christians in this bunch.
@ivanyamazaki3605 Yes, that's true to some extent. But the primary purpose is one of sensory disorientation as to inculcate confusion as to the time of day or night. It's been proven to be a consistently effective technique in terms of mental reshaping.
@JunjiDorito IN REALITY, IT WAS HAZING IN ACTION, SOMETHING EXPLICITLY BANNED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA AND CLASSIFIED AS A MISDEMEANOR UNDER IOWA LAW. So not just a ban but breaking the law.
@Savannah67899 The boys in the basement were pledges trying to get into this worthless fraternity. They were being hazed, which is against the state and University laws.
@acommentator4452 We definitely produce the same kinds of kids out of Eton and some other posh boarding schools. They have no real parenting, basically have a Lord of the Flies situation at school, and turn into maladjusted, immature, yet selfish and cunning adults who are then put to be 'leaders'. Their objective as leaders isn't to serve anyone, it's to protect and profit their cronies - who are the other kids they went to school with. Hazing is all part of it.
We had a house mom, we also didn't do pledging to this level lol major old row fraternity at a D1 SEC school. Ours was mostly about learning everyone; birthdays, hometown, favorite activities, shoot we did a group creek cleanup one day and pulled so much trash out of it we needed multiple truckloads to move the bags.
When I tell my 2 year old toddler grandson to "go over there" and he refuses like he has a choice, I simply but FORCEFULLY pick him up and calmly MOVE him to where I want him! THIS police officer could use some good TODDLER TRAINING!
21-year-old Joseph Gaya was arrested for trying to block officers' view of the incident, although the charges were later dropped. (The-CNN-Wire & 2026 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company. All rights reserved.)
@joyloft7418 HE IS his name is TRUMP and his EXTREMELY RICH DADDY BAILED him OUT OF BANKRUPTCIES and kept him out of jail when his " Non Profit for Kids with Cancer " was exposed as a Grift for Trump to steal MILLIONS from his own Charity LOL! Epstein , Epstein , Epstein! I'm SURE these are ALL TRUMP HUMPERS
Yeah that jerk should have been handcuffed and thrown in jail for at least the night to come down off the arrogant piece of cr*p level that’s he’s clearly on….
@n@nunya257understand rushing/joining a fraternity or similar organization is a “choice”, however let’s not blame victims who are clearly brainwashed by abusive figures and conditioned to believe any of it was “normal”.
@matthewmckinney5387 So who have you voted for that's done this? How did you find out this is what they did after you voted for them? You're so full of shit just looking to bring politics into it when it doesn't apply, pathetic.
It absolutely does apply. Stop acting like politics is some separate issue here. You're covering for the sickness and corruption exactly like the dude, Joe, who was obstructing in this video. The reason for that is obvious.
Because there's so many "rules" and PC mess ruling them and the world today. Their hands are tied. Thanks to our crooked justice and political systems.
@DeborahFoster-b1y It's garbage too officers should be allowed to handle it the way they want the training program is a joke the justice system is a joke and there's a reason people who molest kids get free again
Because a cult is running the US. We know that now with the release of the Epstein files. So, it's no surprise the psychopaths running things keep their origins safeguarded. It's how they vet a new generation of psychopaths to take over when the old ones die.
No it's to take someone who already has insecurity issues, trying to fit in and they take advantage of these kids and some are not so lucky, they end up dead, abd then these so called teaching Universities Call.it suicide, or accident? 😊
We are looking at a generation of humankind who will not receive instruction, will not comply with authority, who challenges any and all questions from authorities that they do not want to answer. They also will not accept any responsibility for their actions or choices. Obey is not in their vocabulary.
For real. "Every person who refuses to cooperate with us right now will be charged with obstruction, at minimum. Plus whatever else is determined to have happened. I am speaking to ALL of you!"
They already know daddy gonna get them released 10 mins later and nothing on their record. Then it's the officers who get in trouble and sued. This is what our society has come to.
I still can’t believe the officer let him talk so much shit to him. I would’ve detained him immediately and taken him to jail for failure to identify if he didn’t produce his real ID.
@BirdieBirrrdI think he should have been arrested for providing a fake or false ID, Obstruction and whatever else they could get him for. He was obviously the ring leader of all this. Maybe some charges for the hazing.
We he made the news when it happened. Body cam was just released a week ago. Im sure his Instagram will be be gaining subs. I doubt he will like all of them new subs 😂
Now I understand why so many rape cases are miss handled by college police forces. The officers are tiptoeing around the students like they are glass when they should be more in command of the whole mess.
Imagine getting a call about your son being in a basement blindfolded and covered in condiments. I'd be flipping out😮 but also wtf did he go there to be treated like that?😢
It's a shame the pledges need to be accepted by the group so much they will let themselves get into this. That's ignoring the real injury and fatal outcomes that have happened to others while trying to pass or endure a "test".
Yeah I've never even thought about being in a frat because look at how weird and pathetic it looks but my bet is on them doing it for a loyalty test. Who know though, the whole thing is just bizarre.
These officers need to be on desk duty! Letting the guys just walk about the house freely, asking these abused boys in front of their abusers are they okay! Sickening!
@mikehawk120and neither do you. As a former police officer I can tell you that he is in the middle of an investigation that could have included whats called felonious restraint which means the dude in the white shirt should have been at the least removed from ear shot of the other individuals but in my opinion should have been detained in handcuffs as an obvious suspect in a potential felonious restraint situation. Thats what should have happened very early on when this guy kept walking up to make sure nobody said anything
@JesussavesallwhocallMaybe Iowa is different from where you are... New York or L A.? Anyway the little punks probably have parents who would sue sue crap put of any coo when touched tem.
@patriciajohnson73691.) you don’t know where I am from. 2.) Felonious Restraint is felonious restraint anywhere. 3.) I would have been the parent suing the department for NOT doing what they should have to ensure the safety and well-being of my child. Their job is not to not interfere with the stupidity and brain-rot choices of this new generation. They had no idea what was going on and it was their duty to find out. This falls under whats called an exigent circumstance and there was A LOT that the officers could have done. At the same time, idk the reasons they had for why they didn’t do any of that. But I know they had every single right to do what I said, especially in Iowa, to find out what the crap was going on and if anyone was pulled into this, or kept in this idiocy beyond their will. It was the officers DUTY to figure it out and they had many tools at their disposal they absolutely could have used. Putting some of those dudes in handcuffs and in the backseat of a car for a few minutes while they figured it out is absolutely legal, and in my opinion probably should have been done. I am not trying to Monday morning quarterback these officers, even though I suppose thats exactly what I am doing. But if I were one of these officers and did what they did I would probably look back on this myself at those decisions I made and probably what I could have done better. Thats how good cops become good cops. They re-evaluate decisions they made after the fact and learn from it. I don’t think they were bad at all. Just probably could’ve done it better. A bad cop would have laughed at it and left. They didn’t do that. But one thing they coulda done better was assert their authority off the bat and made sure some of those guys knew that the police was now in charge and that they will move or be charged with at the very least obstruction of a lawful investigation. I am not wrong. This is Iowa. Not a third world country. We have very similar laws in every state regarding stuff like this. Kids these days are getting dumber and dumber with their choices.

The most frustrating thing about this alleged Illegal College Hazing violence is the ineffective worthless police. Im a 70 year old grandmother and i would have had those "obviously in charge" spoiled frat boys detained & up against the wall in cuffs, taking the abused frat wannabe's one by one for questioning & got plenty of answers! Then called the dads or whoever pays the tuition of those spoiled creeps to let them know where they can come and bail them out. No more "clean record" for them!
The leaking of Phiscologic training is clear. Sad some of this guys didn't receive enough training. They vote for that guy that is spending the tax money in a unnecessary war.
Yeah, I’d say these police officers were intimidated by these dudes, I’m surprised Jose wasn’t arrested after watching this scene. What’s obviously going on but he’s in charge with a few others.
I don't think I ever saw a video of such toothless police work (in any country, not to mention the US). Clearly this entire police department are intimidated by all powers connected to this institition. They not arresting anyone, bc that probably only leeds to Dads showing up with lawyers for their psychopath boys. They understand a collective crime is being committed but the moment they walk in, and the attitudes of the gus wearing shirts vs the silence of the boys without and the utter SQUALOR, and STILL no arrest of anyone refusing to answer questions, but everyone knows in the US you get arrested and possibly deported for not being a whyte frat boy. And you guys are even surprized about the pee edo scandals, the insane abuse entirely normalized by American men. All this is just c r a z y. I'm an expat, my dad was a professor, my son went to uni here in Europe and WILD HORSES wouldn't make me go back for more than a short visit. Perverted beyond imagination. This is the very image of male weakness, the core substance of the Murican business suit with the wide smile and the shifty gaze. It's systemic depravation. It's the how and why behind the scandals of wealthy men in "rings" doing everything from SA to trafficking, money laundering, trading in military intelligence and drugs for money and influence and torture for fun. It starts HERE. Thanks for illustrating it with real footage.
That fire alarm was pulled for a reason..it was a shout for help!!! And these cops didn’t do their full job and asked the right questions and didn’t have the attitude if that. The kid with the gray outfit Joe had more balls than the cop. Personally I would’ve had all the cops there put everyone in a room including the fake house dad that lied through his teeth and had the WHOLE HOUSE CHECKED FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND ALL ROOM AS WELL EVEN THOSE ROOM WITH KEY PADS ON THEM. HUGE FAIL!!! HUGE!!!! Smhlbvs
@theb.lifenetworkbosslife1536yes I remember in the 90s kids dying from alcohol poisoning during a hazing ritual. One thing they would make them do is drink until they puked but if they puked they would get paddled. Literally beat, I’m pretty sure hazing is illegal now…I hope
I guess so ..especially the 2 who pretend to go to kitchen to cill out ..it was good excuse for them and thats why they Uni guy came over to stand up with them when the police officer started to question them.
They’re far from children! They’re adults, over 18, they’re adults. It’s those guys in that room who look between 14 to 16 years old. The guy in the white hoodie was an arrogant idiot and he had an attitude the minute he walked down those stairs, kept casually drinking his beer and sucking on his vape and acted like he’s above that officer. Of course they were lying and protecting their fraternity. But José, if that’s he’s real name, needed to be grabbed by his collar and put the fear in him. He sounded like he has laryngitis, he should lay off the vaping, it’s just as bad or worse than smoking cigarettes
21 years old is not a child. The way these entitled sh heads act is psychopathic behavior. The one in the white sweatshirt is the ring leader. The way he blocks the door, lost his voice, and controls the police investigation by steping in the room is wild. They should have forced him to move and asked all the men being hazed separately what happened.
Bullies, liars and predators, the whole lot of them. This kind of behavior and the institutions that condone it all need to be terminated. There should be no tolerance for this in 2026.
They should have been forced out immediately after they were first asked to clear out and didn't budge. Wasn't that hard to figure out who was in charge.
The fire dept. should have cleared the place out and locked it up as a condemed fire trap No one should have been let back in. Also good ole HOUSE DAD should have been arrested if he was responsible for these morons.
It's also a great way to get the stupid kids to stop pulling the alarm though tech fire alarm goes off the whole place should be evacuated and should be checked. But something about making 200 +/- kids stand out side at 0300 in dead of winter magically alarms stop getting pulled.
So frustrating! They could have detained them. And moved them to cop cars, turned on lights, and checked kids. I understand they are adults, but kids have died this way. And yes I have partied I was born in the 70s . But as a mom, those older kids and house dad pissed me off. U should respect law officers while there.
He was interfering with an investigation and not responding to commands. The house dad asked him his name and didn't even know him. They should have at least detained him and taken him to the back seat of the squad car while they continued the investigation.
@c@cass973obably rich asses !!!!! I HATE WHEN PEOPLE CAN USE THEIR MONEY TO GET OUT OF SHYT LIKE THIS. It shouldn’t be allowed . He should’ve had to spend some time in a REAL JAIL !!!! He would’ve been someone’s GIRLFRIEND for a few weeks/months !!!!!
Most of their parents send them to the same schools so they can get the same treatment. It’s why this continues and stays within families. Rituals. A continues cycle. Parents pay to send them their children are their dues.
@teepeeXthere's something wrong with you. Offended by everything,ashamed of nothing. Letting these bullies get away with what they are doing just enables them. Hazing is not allowed. Think the police would have been so soft if it was a big group of black kids?! Arrogant little sh*ts!
I feel for the boys in the basement. The fact that none of those boys moved tells you how committed they were. This stuff feels so important when it’s happening.
So Jose aka Joe Gaya…the one with no voice….yeah he’s definitely the leader. His demeanor and the fact that he had no voice just gives vibes he was yelling at them or giving orders. He walked around and talked to those officers like they were pests. I’ve never seen police be so complicit and gentle.
Because they've been threatened by the older boys, none of the younger fellows want to have their opportunity of graduating from College taken from them because they betrayed their "House Dad's" order's, it's crazy!
Always has been a bad look. All it says about you is that you likely have some kind of alcohol/drug dependency and are probably entirely too comfortable harassing women. Frats have no legitimate purpose and provide absolutely no value on a resume.
So..... you know nothing about fraternities and sororities - other than seeing a movie once, and viewing this harmless hazing event involving ketchup and mustard 😂, and somehow scenes like this kept you in disgust and away from organized groups of friends and college 😂😂😂😂. I would suspect it was something much more that kept you away from friends and college 😜
@skippymcdoodles398self respect and independence maybe. Not the need to humiliate yourself like a dog yet get a degree and a future regardless? To act like a dog to fit in is pathetic and hardly a standard when you get out to the real world of work and actual responsibilities.
My Son was in one at The University of Rochester and Those Boys did Great Things. Each gathering They had members sighed to be in charge of Alcohol Consumption and Policing The Gathering. Not one time did a gathering Get crazy, They were all responsible Young People happy to be together and getting a good education.
Exactly! One by one, positively ID each and interview, EMS evaluation…..white sweatshirt guy should be arrested for obstruction….and report to University Admin.
I was hoping they would have done that. Not thrilled at the way this was handled. Unfortunately, the universities will do anything to cover up these kinds of activities. They like to seem squeaky clean.
If you watch enough civil rights lawyer videos, you will see they cannot legally do that because no one has committed a crime. The police are asking the kids but no one wants to talk. They don’t have to talk! No matter how we feel, it’s not legal.
EXACTLY WHAT THE FUK I KEEP SAYING !!! And detain the two guys, white sweat shirt and black tank top guy . Both of the KNOW EXACTLY WHATS GOING ON !!!!!
“Jose”, the idiot in the white sweatshirt is dangerous and I fear for anyone who comes in contact with him. His arrogance and defiance is off the charts. Surprised the police could not tell he was the ringleader and in charge.
Keep an eye on black wife beater shirt guy. He is going down a pathway leading to domestic abuse and more. Showing a pic of his girlfriend to the cops and making those comments. I would dump him now if I was her.
He is working with some high power people. He will be the next Epstein! The way he talk to a police officer show that he knows that nothing will happen and he will walk away from whatever he do wrong. Whatever they was doing there is way bigger than what we saw. They haven't stop they're out threre doing it and God knows what they're doing and God will judge all of them not me not you.
This is a wasteland of idiots. Joe should have been separated immediately from the group. Why did they let him interfere with providing aid. They basically questioned everybody under duress from the obviously hoarse voice leader. The cops, the pledges, the house dad, the frat brothers, the lieutenant -everybody failed this. Good on them for being suspended. At least the university did SOMETHING but arrests should have been made. I’m so annoyed.
Arrest them for what? Just because you don’t like something, and I do like this either, is there a law to arrest them under? Breaking some college rules is not a criminal offense. College hazing was really terrible 50+ years ago. People actually died. I would bet that there has been some kind of rite of passage event since fraternities and sororities were first founded. I would bet that someone’s grandfather or great grandfather was once a member of the fraternity and had some stories to tell about hazing in their day and that gave these guys some ideas.
@enid0mom Well, I did some research for you since this case is so peculiar. According to Newsweek and just by looking up Iowa law: "Hazing is strictly forbidden at the University of Iowa and is a misdemeanor under Iowa law." And as for consequences according to Newsweek and the university: "The fraternity was then formally suspended in May of 2025 for the next four academic years." And the weird dude Joseph Gaya, who wasn't even a student, got arrested but the charges were dropped. If these "rites of passage" aren't stated in the Fraternities/sororities Bylaws or I guess "rule book" and can't be categorized as a "for fun" event, then it can be placed under Hazing. Because how is someone to know if this was stated to them before hand or not just spur of the moment? No one died in this case because it was stopped, but who knows the mental states of these individuals? Someone at my university in the past few months just jumped off a bridge and he was part of one of these money grabs, so you never know!
They would be coming home for two years of Community College and therapy. The therapy for self esteem, because anybody who willing subject themselves to this has mental issues.
They all raised morons. I cannot imagine why someone would agree to submit to that nonsense, and I can’t imagine why someone would want to do that to others either.
no not thos frat these fine gentlemen are future proud single wide owners in tin can alley trailerpark working at the local fiah cannery because everyone saw this vid or some video like it now no one except the chinese fish market would hire them
Why are the police letting these punks run the show? Start arresting them for obstruction. Get the names and question every person there. Report them all to the dean.
They're just a bunch of college kids hazing. The worst crime possible is maybe some 19 year old drinking. Why should they start snatching people up and arresting people. It's literally a person's right to not answer police questions. Respectfully, how bout lighten tf up?
@AdamDavis-j3x Didn't you hear White Shirt getting loud, making smart-ass comments and being defiant? Even if he didn't want to answer questions, he didn't have to be an asshole about it. The other kids didn't cooperate either but they also weren't acting like jerks. White Shirt was a tough guy wanna-be.

THESE ARE THE WEIRDOS WHO END UP IN OUR CONGRESS AND SENATE. 🙄
And on places like Epstein Island
AND JUDGES
And the head of and or a board member of every corporation and system within this country. Explains a lot doesn't it?
All connected to free masonry.
Yep. It's a shit situation
Asking them all if they’re hurt or being held against their will in front of the guy running it seems pretty dumb to me
did they look hurt? NO. Do you believe they were "held against their will". NO. All were WILLING participants.
@Canadianguy-d5d complying with coercive orders does not make a person "willing." You would know that if you were a fully developed, mature adult.
@HeatCat_5it's called hazing look it up. These dudes will do anything to get into these fraternities. Thesd are the morons who end up in congress and senate.
Complying with coercive orders is a personal choice up until the point you’re physically forced or made fun of for not
Dumb or cops are working with leaders?
A few psychopathic future leaders here .
Closet cases, 6 abusers, cheaters. I grew up around this world in TX....American Psychos
My exact thoughts. Already practicing feigned ignorance.
CEOs in training
That was my thought too while watching this. This isn't creepy, it's frightening to know that this goes on all over the country. Frats and Sors need to be eliminated. It's the "good ol' boys & girls club" that "we ain't in" as George Carlin said.
Oh yeah! Thinking the exact same thing.
Jose’s voice is gone from screaming at them boys all night
Of course that could be, but we dont know.
José wasn’t his real name, it was Alex or something on the ID. Clearly the ring leader - future psychopath, no wonder he is doing business
He’s the mastermind of brainwashing all those morons 🤣
😂
Or some very illicit activity 🤔😉
*Group silence like this isn’t loyalty. It’s pressure.*
Brainwashing
I agree. They all dont take responsibility .This is not how you get respect!
They don't go to school too come home in a casket???😮😮
I would if gotten names of all if the pledges, and the immoral uneducated young men who did this to them, omg nobody lives there? Can't even be honest what tbe he'll do these parents teach their children? No accountability what is so ever? Suspend it permantly!😢
It us a form of stupidity!😮
This is horrible police work. Clearly, the white shirt guy is intimidating all of the recruits/victims. He should have been taken upstairs and separated A LONG TIME AGO. Smh.
Absolute facts!!! My god it was hard to watch! I thought that was like day 1 training type course about violence, domestic or otherwise and how important it is if any abuse is even suspected to immediately remove/separate victims from suspected abusers. That fire alarm was a call for help but then couldn’t speak up without Jose or 1 of the others breathing down their necks. Absolutely wild. 🤯
They should have pulled him upstairs, separated the other two, had one downstairs collecting IDs from everyone in that room, pulling a few out asking questions. They would have gotten all the answers they needed that way.
Hopefully their Sergeant will take note and take action to reprimand weak police action
Obviously some of these cops went through this as well.
Why in the holy hell would you blame this mess on the police?
So many idiots together. House dad definitely knows this was happening.
I agree, he was totally completely briefed. All they had to do was be respectful and honest. Yeah, it's a hazing. We throw stuff on the guys. . I didn't know it was illegal in iowa so I'm glad the cops persisted.
Exactly. They were all sleeping there and he acted like he'd never seen his own house's basement.
Agreed
@k.elysium6819”ohhh this is disgusting!” Was his attitude 🙄🙄Give it up old dude ..ur just as demonic and sick
Well ya, he's almuni with the fraternity. He did the same thing when he joined. As did 100s of others b4 him
This is INFURIATING. I’m a 36 year old woman and I’ve been treated more severely by police while getting a speeding warning. For gods sake - no accountability for these brats.
Pretty sure these are campus cops, not real cops. A real cop sees these guys tied up with blindfolds then everyone else gets arrested for unlawful detainment. Campus cops have no real authority.
Thank you! 35 here 🙋♀️ I think I actually posted a similar comment under someone elses a few weeks back saying those are the most laid back cops I've ever seen in my LIFE.

Exactly my thoughts. 37, been aggressively cuffed for "talking back" at a cop. Locked up for hours just for speaking my mind😂 . I dont understand. Cops shoot and joke people, despite peoples cooperation and these farts just standing there obstructing the whole situation, with a BASEMENT full of young boys clearly too scared to talk. How does this make sense? 0 authority these cops had.
@whitneygeyevu9751 Yep. I never even talked back and I had one who threatened to cuff me for being to smiley ☺️ Not even joking! He took my nervous smile and laughter as disrespect to his authority and not taking the situation seriously. I was polite said yes sir no sir and genuinely scared because it was the first time I had been pulled over. He snapped at me "Wipe that smile off your face unless you want to be put in cuffs and see what jails about". I clearly caught that asshole on a bad day 😅. Whether they are in the right or wrong, it's still not a good idea to piss off the police. These turds walked all over them and made them look stupid 🫨 I don't get it 🤨
The cops just allowing this jose smart ass to run the show is ridiculous. Why wouldn't you question them separately?
That alone tells you the power these entities and "unknow house dads" have...and we all know that one, was not the real house dad 😉 also these cops have their own society/clubs and like to play the weird games too
In my town he would’ve on the ground and cuffed!
@chasing_stardustthat’s what I’m thinking… what is wrong with these cops.
Privilege in action. Anyone else would have been cuffed and stuffed. These types of guys grow to be entitled assholes.
The One Cop sighing all the time has definitely been through this before and knows that these are all rich kids with powerful parents and it will go nowhere and nothing will be done
The police should have called the dean of the school and told him to come there now. Those cocky little punks need to be expelled.
Those kids parents are alumni's more than likely and are donors to the University and that will keep the Deans mouth shut.
Half or more of them are probably silver-spoon babies. The Dean won't do jack!
What an idiot Jose is...he won't tell the cop his name, but offers to show him ID.
Why don't the cops contact the OWNER of the house - they have reasons including fire code violations.
They should. Kids die from hazing after this kind of action
Fraternities are literally what your parents warned you about when they said “if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump too?”
Sadly kids aren't taught the things we were taught growing up.
Then you say "Of course not, we jump off Sky Scrapers now"
@gothgirl4evr881 erm... this shit has been going on for decades, i dont know how old you are but im assuming youre not older than hazing rituals,
Its like the cops were afraid of rich college kids. Everyone in the house should have been directed to come out of the basement and go outside immediately.
My thoughts exactly 🤔
They are afraid, of the kids' parents. These are kids of our lawmakers, fortune 500 business owners, people who run our country.
@jessican858at this point stick it the man or the kids lol. Somebody can go to jail today.
I thought that was strange too. They were not being very assertive for cops especially not towards these immoral teens/ young men. They should have been more direct and agressive in the way they approached the situation. Clearly something messed up happened and since hazing is a crime and there was obvious evidence of that, they should have been demanding answers and threatening them with a misdimeanor charge.
The two liars blocking the way in are definitely in charge. They need to be arrested pronto.
White shirt drinking a beer and vaping like “normal”
The white hoodie is in charge, Mr Officer.
No Victim, No Crime On Private Property & I Have Seen College Parties Like This!!
Agreeeeed!!!!!
Why is he blocking doorway
White sweater has clearly lost his voice from shouting at the terrified lads.
Terrified. They volunteer to do this crap.
Agreed I am amazed he was not arrested for obstruction; the police were way to soft with them.
@karleebathke6081And illegal!
These are our future corrupt politicians, with no loyalty to the constitution, much less the laws found within.
and they’re impeding an investigation and should be held responsible.
We’re in America, not Greece.
Creek life is about taking a knee, and Americans fought war to keep Americans off their knees.
@karleebathke6081 hazing is against the law. It is also against the university rules. They know this and they know that they’re doing wrong. That’s why they’re trying to hide it and keep people from talking..
@karleebathke6081lmao ffs go to war if you want to bond with brothers.
Weakest set of cops ever
No crap hey? Super frustrating!!!
Since when do you let people disobey direct commands or block your entry, without repercussions.
They are more scared of the parents of the frat boys and former frat members already in power (political, judiciary, or financial powers).
If they were black, they would be placed on knees and arrested IMMEDIATELY! No silent treatment, they'd be talking period!
Campus cops. Not real police.
This was honestly one of the most irritating things to watch.
Tight lipped as can be, playing dumb.
GURRRRRRL😡
I couldn't finish. Was pissing me TF off. Stopped 11 min in
If hazing is a misdemeanor and banned by the university there should have been arrests and citations at the very least
Broccoli head in the white hoodie has never been punched in the face and it really shows.
We should fix that....
Broccoli head 🥦😂😂😂
I tell people this all the time, you can tell the guys who haven't. Very mouthy.
And it's so, so fixable.
Broccoli head😂😂😂
Wow. The fact that they won’t even follow the officer’s instructions over the house is a serious problem.
I did not go so I do not know any of this but could they have thought it was a test? Thats why it took a min? They were scared? Like yeah right their cops lol
Im in a sorority and sadly people want those letters more than there self respect and or dignity sad
@aricashinault-st1jthey can you explain more? What do you mean they want a sorority letter?
@CheekyEvertonI won't go in depth I will explain that portion sorority letters like the letters they choose to represent example there's Delta so that's DST ( DeltaSigmaTheta) there's Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA) and so forth just to name a two....point is I see people choosing to represent letters all the time forgetting there own Letters such as there own name that represents there identity hope this helps.
Exactly. He believes he is above the law. He is a psychopath.
Wtf are they being so lenient, shoulda started arresting as soon as they weren’t cooperating.
Exactly my thoughts.
Their dad's probably have a high political affiliation. A local one.
Not how that works with fraternity. Nobody gets arrested but they will file a report and the school will take action
They way they guard the doors ... And the cops just let them.
These cops are idiots, someone could be dying in there.
Bruhhhhhhhh
Imagine if they were black…
I would of pulled that one right to the ground on his face and handcuffed him
They are probably the sons of rich and powerful people so in America they can do what they want😮
This is ridiculous, put the cuffs and detain the white shirt guy and the black shirt guy. What idiots
Why are you letting that punk?In that sweatsuit, control the situation put them in cups because he is obstructing your investigation, he is a punk and he needs to be held accountable
He’s a little punk! He needs to go to jail with the big boys.
I was wondering about that , the guy in white huffs on his weed vape , chugs his bear and gives them an id that he tells them is fake and he just gets to block the door and wait for them to find who's in charge, hes an adult '21) in a house full of tortured young men. If he was a black guy in a poor neighbourhood this would be a whole different video eh ?
Black tank top's ego is oozing...
Another indoctrinated clown who bows down to government and believes they can do anything they please. These guys never should have said one word and simply told the costumed clowns to leave. I am not in agreement with what was going on, it's rather childish, but I never would side with government abuse of power. You clowns are so lost. You base everything on emotion and are incapable of seeing the entirety of any situation. I don't like these people, so the Constitution doesn't matter.....duhhhhh.
I cant believe the cops let the absolute leader walk around and stand by while they conduct interviews. He controlled the cops!
He's white
@derren313racist much?
@derren313😂😂 boom 💥
He THOUGHT he was in control~ those cops were letting him “think” that
@Goodliving22 you do realize that Gaya is a surname from India, right? His name is Joseph Gaya 😑
Those kids should be lined up, questioned individually, parents called and told how they were found. What an embarrassment by the cops.
Then what? They are mostly adults, over 18.
Notice the tarps over the windows so the recruits dont know if its day or night. brain washing 101.
That's not magic tarp. Daylight will bleed through it especially the edges. Occums razor says it's to hide the activities from being seen.
Occam's razor*
Not to mention the trauma bonding that goes on there. They get perks in their careers from this so they basically sell their souls for this. I bet there are NO true Christians in this bunch.
Manchurian Candidates
@ivanyamazaki3605 Yes, that's true to some extent. But the primary purpose is one of sensory disorientation as to inculcate confusion as to the time of day or night. It's been proven to be a consistently effective technique in terms of mental reshaping.
And these kid’s parents PAY for this experience. What a bunch of creeps.
The colleges need to be shut down
@TashaVolovsek At the very least there should be a blanket ban on any hazing whatsoever.
@JunjiDorito IN REALITY, IT WAS HAZING IN ACTION, SOMETHING EXPLICITLY BANNED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA AND CLASSIFIED AS A MISDEMEANOR UNDER IOWA LAW. So not just a ban but breaking the law.
What happend I don’t get the video? Why is their people in the basement? X
@Savannah67899
The boys in the basement were pledges trying to get into this worthless fraternity.
They were being hazed, which is against the state and University laws.
A "house dad" sounds creepy as hell. Hazing is creepy as hell. Rich boys with zero morals. Digusting.
I'm glad we don't have anything like this in the UK. At least I hope we don't.....??
I agree
@acommentator4452 We definitely produce the same kinds of kids out of Eton and some other posh boarding schools. They have no real parenting, basically have a Lord of the Flies situation at school, and turn into maladjusted, immature, yet selfish and cunning adults who are then put to be 'leaders'. Their objective as leaders isn't to serve anyone, it's to protect and profit their cronies - who are the other kids they went to school with. Hazing is all part of it.
Bingo
We had a house mom, we also didn't do pledging to this level lol major old row fraternity at a D1 SEC school.
Ours was mostly about learning everyone; birthdays, hometown, favorite activities, shoot we did a group creek cleanup one day and pulled so much trash out of it we needed multiple truckloads to move the bags.
When I tell my 2 year old toddler grandson to "go over there" and he refuses like he has a choice, I simply but FORCEFULLY pick him up and calmly MOVE him to where I want him!
THIS police officer could use some good TODDLER TRAINING!
Jose has that “rich boy whose daddy bails him out of heinous trouble on the repeat and he’ll bail me out of this too” smug attitude.
21-year-old Joseph Gaya was arrested for trying to block officers' view of the incident, although the charges were later dropped. (The-CNN-Wire & 2026 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company. All rights reserved.)
I want to know his name and google him in 10 years. Unless a miracle occurs, this guy is going t be trouble. BIG trouble.
@furmisl203
He could end up being your president
@joyloft7418 HE IS his name is TRUMP and his EXTREMELY RICH DADDY BAILED him OUT OF BANKRUPTCIES and kept him out of jail when his " Non Profit for Kids with Cancer " was exposed as a Grift for Trump to steal MILLIONS from his own Charity LOL! Epstein , Epstein , Epstein! I'm SURE these are ALL TRUMP HUMPERS
Yeah that jerk should have been handcuffed and thrown in jail for at least the night to come down off the arrogant piece of cr*p level that’s he’s clearly on….
Asking victims if they are victims in front of their abuser is pointless. Of course they will say no. He is an abuser.
They’ve victimized themselves. Nobody is making them choose to be frat boys. I knew in high school I’d never be a part of that bullshit in college.
@n@nunya257understand rushing/joining a fraternity or similar organization is a “choice”, however let’s not blame victims who are clearly brainwashed by abusive figures and conditioned to believe any of it was “normal”.
Exactly. I was getting so irritated. Separate them and talk to them individually!
@nunya257good for you, but they are still victims.
Exactly
These are the kind of weirdos you need to keep away from your daughters! 👀
The daughters are screwing everyone in collage.
These are the weirdos that we elect as government officials
@matthewmckinney5387 So who have you voted for that's done this? How did you find out this is what they did after you voted for them? You're so full of shit just looking to bring politics into it when it doesn't apply, pathetic.
It absolutely does apply. Stop acting like politics is some separate issue here. You're covering for the sickness and corruption exactly like the dude, Joe, who was obstructing in this video. The reason for that is obvious.
@Hank9462 You're not very bright, are you. Critical thinking works if you try. 🤦🏼♀️
Man these people need to be deeply investigated through daily 😅😢
why are these cops acting like it’s their first day on earth?
Because there's so many "rules" and PC mess ruling them and the world today. Their hands are tied. Thanks to our crooked justice and political systems.
@DeborahFoster-b1y It's garbage too officers should be allowed to handle it the way they want the training program is a joke the justice system is a joke and there's a reason people who molest kids get free again
Cause Frats are brotherhoods and they have at least one big brother who has power.
If this was Tulsa Oklahoma,the cops would violate laws and rules and force everybody out even with no criminal history!.. pepper ball guns and all!!
Well what are they doing wrong exactly???
I don’t understand why US universities allow these mini cults to exist. They serve no academic purpose
Because a cult is running the US. We know that now with the release of the Epstein files. So, it's no surprise the psychopaths running things keep their origins safeguarded. It's how they vet a new generation of psychopaths to take over when the old ones die.
No oppression, no power , at least they think. They training for tomorrow
You don’t understand why?😂😂
@Beangrl you know that was a rhetorical question
No it's to take someone who already has insecurity issues, trying to fit in and they take advantage of these kids and some are not so lucky, they end up dead, abd then these so called teaching Universities Call.it suicide, or accident? 😊
Buddy in the white sweatshirt with no voice, is a psychopath
Nah, he's just a colossal douche. I mean, he _might_ be a psychopath, it's not like I can rule it out; but most likely he's just a douchey frat-bro.
@jonathanconnor7920you act like there's a difference... These are the same losers who become healthcare CEOs
I said the exact same thing…
He probably lost his voice because he’s been screaming at pledges all night.
He’s a Brett Kavanaugh in the making. Good grief.
The huge sigh whe the firefighters realised this was some weird shit that was not gonna be quick was kinda hilarious ngl
I dont know what’s more pathetic, the students or the piss poor policing. Show some authority and make them listen to your commands!
We are looking at a generation of humankind who will not receive instruction, will not comply with authority, who challenges any and all questions from authorities that they do not want to answer. They also will not accept any responsibility for their actions or choices. Obey is not in their vocabulary.
For real. "Every person who refuses to cooperate with us right now will be charged with obstruction, at minimum. Plus whatever else is determined to have happened. I am speaking to ALL of you!"
They already know daddy gonna get them released 10 mins later and nothing on their record. Then it's the officers who get in trouble and sued. This is what our society has come to.
Exactly
Definitely the police
“JOSE” NEEDS TO GO TO BIG PEOPLE JAIL FOR A FEW MONTHS. Everyone is a tough mker until they get put in a cell with a real one
I knew when he chugged his beer he wasn't 21
I still can’t believe the officer let him talk so much shit to him. I would’ve detained him immediately and taken him to jail for failure to identify if he didn’t produce his real ID.
@BirdieBirrrdI think he should have been arrested for providing a fake or false ID, Obstruction and whatever else they could get him for. He was obviously the ring leader of all this. Maybe some charges for the hazing.
We he made the news when it happened. Body cam was just released a week ago. Im sure his Instagram will be be gaining subs. I doubt he will like all of them new subs 😂
Someone tell me die in white is expelled
Now I understand why so many rape cases are miss handled by college police forces. The officers are tiptoeing around the students like they are glass when they should be more in command of the whole mess.
They will lose their job if they make the wrong parent above their caste mad
If they were black.. ….
Cos they know they have very rich and powerful parents!! Sick!!
I’ve seen officers detain black female student for using the foyer of the dorm😮
Great point
Imagine getting a call about your son being in a basement blindfolded and covered in condiments. I'd be flipping out😮 but also wtf did he go there to be treated like that?😢
freak out on who? your son would be an idiot thats all
It's a shame the pledges need to be accepted by the group so much they will let themselves get into this. That's ignoring the real injury and fatal outcomes that have happened to others while trying to pass or endure a "test".
This can't be as bad as Bohemian Grove? Right?
Thank god someone pulled the alarm
My money is on one of the two guys who noped out.
It was probably part of the test
Yeah I've never even thought about being in a frat because look at how weird and pathetic it looks but my bet is on them doing it for a loyalty test. Who know though, the whole thing is just bizarre.
😂 cops are to stulid to understand the reason
These officers need to be on desk duty! Letting the guys just walk about the house freely, asking these abused boys in front of their abusers are they okay! Sickening!
You obviously have no understanding of law and people’s rights lol. Just the feels got ya.
@mikehawk120and neither do you. As a former police officer I can tell you that he is in the middle of an investigation that could have included whats called felonious restraint which means the dude in the white shirt should have been at the least removed from ear shot of the other individuals but in my opinion should have been detained in handcuffs as an obvious suspect in a potential felonious restraint situation. Thats what should have happened very early on when this guy kept walking up to make sure nobody said anything
Terrible police work.
@JesussavesallwhocallMaybe Iowa is different from where you are... New York or L
A.? Anyway the little punks probably have parents who would sue sue crap put of any coo when touched tem.
@patriciajohnson73691.) you don’t know where I am from. 2.) Felonious Restraint is felonious restraint anywhere. 3.) I would have been the parent suing the department for NOT doing what they should have to ensure the safety and well-being of my child. Their job is not to not interfere with the stupidity and brain-rot choices of this new generation. They had no idea what was going on and it was their duty to find out. This falls under whats called an exigent circumstance and there was A LOT that the officers could have done. At the same time, idk the reasons they had for why they didn’t do any of that. But I know they had every single right to do what I said, especially in Iowa, to find out what the crap was going on and if anyone was pulled into this, or kept in this idiocy beyond their will. It was the officers DUTY to figure it out and they had many tools at their disposal they absolutely could have used. Putting some of those dudes in handcuffs and in the backseat of a car for a few minutes while they figured it out is absolutely legal, and in my opinion probably should have been done. I am not trying to Monday morning quarterback these officers, even though I suppose thats exactly what I am doing. But if I were one of these officers and did what they did I would probably look back on this myself at those decisions I made and probably what I could have done better. Thats how good cops become good cops. They re-evaluate decisions they made after the fact and learn from it. I don’t think they were bad at all. Just probably could’ve done it better. A bad cop would have laughed at it and left. They didn’t do that. But one thing they coulda done better was assert their authority off the bat and made sure some of those guys knew that the police was now in charge and that they will move or be charged with at the very least obstruction of a lawful investigation. I am not wrong. This is Iowa. Not a third world country. We have very similar laws in every state regarding stuff like this. Kids these days are getting dumber and dumber with their choices.
They all should be expelled permanently.
I’m confident they will, they need to be arrested.
@ahoweO7 News sources states "21-year-old Joseph Gaya was arrested for trying to block officers' view of the incident, although the charges were later dropped." (The-CNN-Wire & 2026 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company. All rights reserved.)
Expelled for what? Zero evidence of any crime.
@AZ-kr6ff true.
@AZ-kr6ffthese kids themselves... Are a crime . Their parents raised idiots!
The most frustrating thing about this alleged Illegal College Hazing violence is the ineffective worthless police.
Im a 70 year old grandmother and i would have had those "obviously in charge" spoiled frat boys detained & up against the wall in cuffs, taking the abused frat wannabe's one by one for questioning & got plenty of answers! Then called the dads or whoever pays the tuition of those spoiled creeps to let them know where they can come and bail them out. No more "clean record" for them!
Why would you ask a room full of victims if they were hurt when the persons violating them are present? You do that one at a time.
Why didn’t the police get each participant to write down his information instead of asking for a list at the end of it all?!
Exactly, so disorganised
I wondered too!
there not 5 years old they're just all morons with no backbone
The leaking of Phiscologic training is clear. Sad some of this guys didn't receive enough training. They vote for that guy that is spending the tax money in a unnecessary war.
This is some of the creepiest shit I’ve ever seen.
Look up skull and bones from yale!!! This is amateur hour. 322
Seriously?!
I'm with you on that one. I've never seen anything like this before.
Def not for me it's just a normal cult like hazing. Not that I agree with it , def messed up stuff but not creepiess I've ever encountered
Was any of them charged
This is literally how serial killers get away with it for so long. How absolutely pathetic!! HORRIBLE police work!
Yeah, I’d say these police officers were intimidated by these dudes, I’m surprised Jose wasn’t arrested after watching this scene. What’s obviously going on but he’s in charge with a few others.
University of Iowa seems to be making serial killers! These two guys are definitely going to be serial killers continuing this way.
I don't think I ever saw a video of such toothless police work (in any country, not to mention the US). Clearly this entire police department are intimidated by all powers connected to this institition. They not arresting anyone, bc that probably only leeds to Dads showing up with lawyers for their psychopath boys.
They understand a collective crime is being committed but the moment they walk in, and the attitudes of the gus wearing shirts vs the silence of the boys without and the utter SQUALOR, and STILL no arrest of anyone refusing to answer questions, but everyone knows in the US you get arrested and possibly deported for not being a whyte frat boy. And you guys are even surprized about the pee edo scandals, the insane abuse entirely normalized by American men.
All this is just
c r a z y. I'm an expat, my dad was a professor, my son went to uni here in Europe and WILD HORSES wouldn't make me go back for more than a short visit. Perverted beyond imagination.
This is the very image of male weakness, the core substance of the Murican business suit with the wide smile and the shifty gaze.
It's systemic depravation. It's the how and why behind the scandals of wealthy men in "rings" doing everything from SA to trafficking, money laundering, trading in military intelligence and drugs for money and influence and torture for fun.
It starts HERE.
Thanks for illustrating it with real footage.
That fire alarm was pulled for a reason..it was a shout for help!!! And these cops didn’t do their full job and asked the right questions and didn’t have the attitude if that. The kid with the gray outfit Joe had more balls than the cop. Personally I would’ve had all the cops there put everyone in a room including the fake house dad that lied through his teeth and had the WHOLE HOUSE CHECKED FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND ALL ROOM AS WELL EVEN THOSE ROOM WITH KEY PADS ON THEM. HUGE FAIL!!! HUGE!!!! Smhlbvs
One of the kids set it off to get help
Smart kid ..... Someone needs to stop it before it's too late😮😢
Exactly
@theb.lifenetworkbosslife1536yes I remember in the 90s kids dying from alcohol poisoning during a hazing ritual. One thing they would make them do is drink until they puked but if they puked they would get paddled. Literally beat, I’m pretty sure hazing is illegal now…I hope
Thank God he did!!!
Good possible
One of those pledges pulled that fire alarm.. It was the only way to call for help.
That's exactly what I said.
I guess so ..especially the 2 who pretend to go to kitchen to cill out ..it was good excuse for them and thats why they Uni guy came over to stand up with them when the police officer started to question them.
You are 100% correct.
I was thinking the same thing and was going to mention that, but you beat me to it 😂
I'm very thankful to whoever pulled that alarm!!!
It probably saved a life.❤
These children reek of entitlement, its honestly scary.
No kidding!!!!! If they don’t get put in check there’ll b MUCH BIGGER criminal acts perpetrated by them. MUCH BIGGER.
@jules3048they turn into politicians and become in charge of the country then continue doing this to the public. Americas elite are a total disgrace.
They’re far from children! They’re adults, over 18, they’re adults. It’s those guys in that room who look between 14 to 16 years old. The guy in the white hoodie was an arrogant idiot and he had an attitude the minute he walked down those stairs, kept casually drinking his beer and sucking on his vape and acted like he’s above that officer. Of course they were lying and protecting their fraternity. But José, if that’s he’s real name, needed to be grabbed by his collar and put the fear in him. He sounded like he has laryngitis, he should lay off the vaping, it’s just as bad or worse than smoking cigarettes
21 years old is not a child. The way these entitled sh heads act is psychopathic behavior. The one in the white sweatshirt is the ring leader. The way he blocks the door, lost his voice, and controls the police investigation by steping in the room is wild. They should have forced him to move and asked all the men being hazed separately what happened.
The future of the country,protected by rich parents,
Obstruction. Arrestable offence. Why weren't they arrested immediately?
Bullies, liars and predators, the whole lot of them. This kind of behavior and the institutions that condone it all need to be terminated. There should be no tolerance for this in 2026.
Hope they were all expelled from the university
And that's how wussies like you are born. Can't handle ketchup and mustard while being yelled at 🤣
Maybe IOWA UNIVERSITY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN IF THEY CAN NOT CONTROL THEIR STUDENTS BEHAVIOR! NO EXCUSES!
You guys are a bunch of paginas
The only other choice is African style corruption
The guy in the white sweatshirt thought he was really special.
Casually drinking and vaping. AH.
What a psycho. That dude is scary. Look at how he tried to control everything
Joseph Gaya - now 22, acquitted. It's a big club...
“BIG MAN” in a really small world~ Pathetic.
@nessaseetah1805 I wonder how many women he's already rped
This is the MOST frustrating video I've ever watched
100%
Seriously! Insane
Guy in the white shirt with a low voice should have been detained with that fake ID alone
What a waste of time. They dont even do anything nor arrest anyone! Question 'victims' infront of 'possible perps'
That kid in the white sweatshirt is big trouble. BIG TROUBLE. Scary.
He's nothing without the frat.
The charges were dropped against him because of his wealthy ass parents.
@Kim-lt8sb Apparently not even a student there???
His face is out there now. He's on the radar
Im from Europe.. why are people scared by any of these whiteboys. None of them look like they want to die about something.
The fire department should have made them all clear out due to the alarm. Safety first.
They should have been forced out immediately after they were first asked to clear out and didn't budge. Wasn't that hard to figure out who was in charge.
The fire dept. should have cleared the place out and locked it up as a condemed fire trap No one should have been let back in. Also good ole HOUSE DAD should have been arrested if he was responsible for these morons.
It's also a great way to get the stupid kids to stop pulling the alarm though tech fire alarm goes off the whole place should be evacuated and should be checked. But something about making 200 +/- kids stand out side at 0300 in dead of winter magically alarms stop getting pulled.
Ikr???
It seems like the police tried. But once the police take over the scene the fd doesn’t have jurisdiction.
The guy with no voice is in charge. He has no voice because he's been yelling commands and insults. How can the officers not figure that out?
Because it's pointless.
Yep, that's what I figured as well.
not only the voice (or lack thereof) but he also walked into that room with the pledges to infer "don't you say anything"
22:13 notice how guy talking to police looked at leader when he walked away.
John Hamm. If you don't know what I mean, Google it.
He makes this situation look like a tea party.
Why is this so frustrating to watch. The boy is clearly blocking the door.
“The boy.” Exactly
So frustrating! They could have detained them. And moved them to cop cars, turned on lights, and checked kids. I understand they are adults, but kids have died this way. And yes I have partied I was born in the 70s . But as a mom, those older kids and house dad pissed me off. U should respect law officers while there.
AND THEY LET HIM. While allowing him to just smart-mouth his way through every interaction.
He was interfering with an investigation and not responding to commands. The house dad asked him his name and didn't even know him.
They should have at least detained him and taken him to the back seat of the squad car while they continued the investigation.
Why can't they turn the frickin lights on?
I bet it smells like hell in there.
💀😬🤢🤮😷
Like astroglide and shame.
Oh, the parents should be so proud! And that guy standing in the doorway…arrogant asshole!
He was charged for that and it got dropped. Probably the damn parents got it dropped.
100% ASS HOLE !!!! He swears he’s UNTOUCHABLE !!! SOONER OR LATER HE WILL DEFINITELY GET HIS !!!!!
@c@cass973obably rich asses !!!!! I HATE WHEN PEOPLE CAN USE THEIR MONEY TO GET OUT OF SHYT LIKE THIS. It shouldn’t be allowed . He should’ve had to spend some time in a REAL JAIL !!!! He would’ve been someone’s GIRLFRIEND for a few weeks/months !!!!!
This is the people running your country.
It has a girlfriend
Parents have worked hard and paid a lot of money to get their kids into College to have them end up in a disgusting situation like this!
Most of their parents send them to the same schools so they can get the same treatment. It’s why this continues and stays within families. Rituals. A continues cycle. Parents pay to send them their children are their dues.
These same parents will pay big money to keep baby out of trouble.
As a parent I would sue each of these frat boys.
Bullies raising bullies
But they raised their kid in a way that they value the wrong things so...
My thing is this is how someone’s child ends up dead doing this weird shit .
If you want to get high in position, you have to do this
Business major... What a surprise
I thought that exact thing 💯
Future CEO psychopath
The house is suspended until 2029. That’s a small win.
Not double secret probation?
Win? Why?
@mikehawk120 no, its a loss. lol
@patriottowing4973I agree, there was no crime and people are free to do what they want on their own time.
@mikehawk120found the sociopath in the comments
That lil weasel needs a rude awakening
You mean the dude who pulled the fire alarm?
Why because it would not ask ? .. police were bully's. Unless there was a crime the police should leave
@teepeeXthere's something wrong with you. Offended by everything,ashamed of nothing.
Letting these bullies get away with what they are doing just enables them. Hazing is not allowed.
Think the police would have been so soft if it was a big group of black kids?!
Arrogant little sh*ts!
@teepeeXugh, it was a crime. did you not watch the video? Also was getting in the way of wellness checks.
@jennjwhat crime
I feel for the boys in the basement. The fact that none of those boys moved tells you how committed they were. This stuff feels so important when it’s happening.
The cops really handled this horribly
Totally agree, pathetic
What have they should done instead? Im not familiar with these rituals or whatever that was...
Yea i dont get it either why are they harrassing these youngsters?
White privilage at it finest! “Guys, stop playing too harsh or someone will get hurt!” Can you imagine what would be if their skin tone was darker?
Agree
So Jose aka Joe Gaya…the one with no voice….yeah he’s definitely the leader. His demeanor and the fact that he had no voice just gives vibes he was yelling at them or giving orders. He walked around and talked to those officers like they were pests. I’ve never seen police be so complicit and gentle.
Good point on the voice!
The cops are letting these guys run the show. BS
Blocks access to the basement room with the kids
A blind person could have figured that out. Idk wtf was wrong with these cops.
@MBGolfer Political pressure from the college.
Why isn't the School administrator or Dean called to the scene immediately
Thinking the same thing!!
Cuz he is asleep 😂
Wy people...
Ya why wasn’t despatch told to call the Dean and send more units ?
Because he's probably been through this himself
Somebody pulled tht alarm as a plea for help
Why are these adult men afraid to report the boys?
Because they've been threatened by the older boys, none of the younger fellows want to have their opportunity of graduating from College taken from them because they betrayed their "House Dad's" order's, it's crazy!
Because they're pledges, they choose to be there and participate.
Many college young men are still partly boys. Some say until age 25 on average. Beside fully grown men join cults so...
@maddisonbythesea3015yeah
@tessofgielinor7148 You're a Moron! Also, learn to spell! 🤯
The PRIVILEGE given to these assholes by these cops while endangering themselves is outrageous‼️
these are the saddest cops ive ever seen
💯 I kept hoping there'd be at least a couple of no-non-sense cops that would come on the scene 😜
I agree100%!!!
@ChaosControl-dc9wfme too!
Whats the crime
Yeah you can detain people during an investigation.
I just have one question wtf is going on is this a p Diddy party like what? 😂😂
At this point it should look better on a resume that you weren't in a fraternity. What a bunch of idiots
I’ve always said that. Never understood the appeal of a frat.
Always has been a bad look. All it says about you is that you likely have some kind of alcohol/drug dependency and are probably entirely too comfortable harassing women. Frats have no legitimate purpose and provide absolutely no value on a resume.
Bosses like it because it means you are great at doing what you are told, tolerating crap conditions and not complaining.
@k.elysium6819That’s what my military experience says. And I DID something for my country. wtf do frats do?
Or even go to college
I bet the guy in the white hoodie has never been told no
He has but the girls dont live to tell. He got bodies somewhere
Well ofc he has rich parents that spoiled him his whole life
None of them.
Born lucky
He's got that r-pist energy
@SaRaH-et2ttthe future Jeffrey Epsteins, pedophiles & cannibals.
I’ve always been disgusted by fraternities and sororities. I stayed far away in college.
Me, too! So weird and creepy.
So..... you know nothing about fraternities and sororities - other than seeing a movie once, and viewing this harmless hazing event involving ketchup and mustard 😂, and somehow scenes like this kept you in disgust and away from organized groups of friends and college 😂😂😂😂. I would suspect it was something much more that kept you away from friends and college 😜
@skippymcdoodles398self respect and independence maybe. Not the need to humiliate yourself like a dog yet get a degree and a future regardless? To act like a dog to fit in is pathetic and hardly a standard when you get out to the real world of work and actual responsibilities.
My Son was in one at The University of Rochester and Those Boys did Great Things. Each gathering They had members sighed to be in charge of Alcohol Consumption and Policing The Gathering. Not one time did a gathering Get crazy, They were all responsible Young People happy to be together and getting a good education.
@beverlyt.5526 You only know what he told you.
"I'm not gonna tell you my last name.
Wanna see my ID?
I think it's fake."
😂
Students have died during hazings recently and in the past.
:-(
That's why it's now criminalized. It should be more than a misdemeanor, though.
When the need to fit in is so strong, you’re willing to trade in your power for affiliation:(
They do it in the army
Some kids in Belgium tortured a pledge to death and none of them served any jail time
If this would’ve been any other person, they would’ve been slammed on the ground in hand cuffs.
I agree 💯
Facts. Exactly what I was thinking. Smh
SAY THIS AGAIN🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🎯💯✅️
U know it
Where is the real authority
Why the F#@k did they not immediately put white sweatshirt guy in cuffs!!!
And or separate him from the others. Isn’t that step one, separate suspects
Exactly!
Because….they haven’t had proof of an actual crime. You can’t cuff someone for being an arrogant prick….unless you want a lawsuit.
I think they should have for Obstruction. He was physically obstructing access to the room in front of the Officers.
@joleighvathats not legal to arrest some one for standing in a door way where they live at. Boots tast good.
Iowa shirt was definitely in charge. Book 'em Dano!! 🤌🏽🚔🚨🚔🚨
I wanted to see the guy in the white hoodie arrested so bad. What an attitude and mouth!
Ya me too
Same!!!!
Me too!!!
He was arrested, but later, ALL CHARGES against him were DISMISSED.
No shit in my world as a youth, that cop would’ve jacked me up face on the ground and cuffed
They need to get their asses out and question them separately. This is ridiculous !!
Exactly! One by one, positively ID each and interview, EMS evaluation…..white sweatshirt guy should be arrested for obstruction….and report to University Admin.
I was hoping they would have done that.
Not thrilled at the way this was handled.
Unfortunately, the universities will do anything to cover up these kinds of activities.
They like to seem squeaky clean.
If you watch enough civil rights lawyer videos, you will see they cannot legally do that because no one has committed a crime. The police are asking the kids but no one wants to talk. They don’t have to talk! No matter how we feel, it’s not legal.
EXACTLY WHAT THE FUK I KEEP SAYING !!! And detain the two guys, white sweat shirt and black tank top guy . Both of the KNOW EXACTLY WHATS GOING ON !!!!!
@carolyndice2425AGREED !!!! 100% . HE’s a SMUGG LITTLE SHYT HEAD !!!! He thinks he is UNTOUCHABLE!!!!
This is so disturbing .
Punks
I am completely concerned for those poor boys. The one in the white sweatshirt. Is a control freak & he needs removing from society.
It'a ketchup, mustard, and blindfolds. This is easy stuff
We didn't get hazed to an insane level, but we got brought up into a brotherhood.
@QuinnRyderSmith bro your one of those people shirtless ? Lol
@Alienskie69😂😂😂😂
This is the longest plot setup for a FraternityX video I have ever seen.
lol exactly
“Jose”, the idiot in the white sweatshirt is dangerous and I fear for anyone who comes in contact with him. His arrogance and defiance is off the charts. Surprised the police could not tell he was the ringleader and in charge.
Keep an eye on black wife beater shirt guy. He is going down a pathway leading to domestic abuse and more. Showing a pic of his girlfriend to the cops and making those comments. I would dump him now if I was her.
By the age of 27, he'll have a long list of crimes racked up against him, and he'll keep getting away with it because he's learned that he can
His career is ruined
He is working with some high power people. He will be the next Epstein! The way he talk to a police officer show that he knows that nothing will happen and he will walk away from whatever he do wrong. Whatever they was doing there is way bigger than what we saw. They haven't stop they're out threre doing it and God knows what they're doing and God will judge all of them not me not you.
He needs anger management, you could see by the way his friend stopped him from escalating - he’s a huuuuge problem and yet hes walking around
Fraternities need a damn check. This crap is out of control.
Why is everything so wet?!?
But is anyone hurt?? This is traditional.
@katlieseTraditional psychopaths.
@katliese It’s childish and completely stupid.
@katliese Countless boys have died from hazing. Why don't you ask their parents if this is okay
This is a wasteland of idiots. Joe should have been separated immediately from the group. Why did they let him interfere with providing aid. They basically questioned everybody under duress from the obviously hoarse voice leader. The cops, the pledges, the house dad, the frat brothers, the lieutenant -everybody failed this. Good on them for being suspended. At least the university did SOMETHING but arrests should have been made. I’m so annoyed.
Yes me too !!!!! They should’ve served some jail time !!!!!
I think one of the cops or fireman belongs to the same lodge.
Not only smells like hell, it is hell, this is where demons live to do whatever they want.
Love and Respect Thank's and Bless you for the information and 👏 Congratulations and Best wishes 👏 Beautiful ❤️
That is Highley abusive! Wow!! If that was my kid I'd be so pissed off.
Nobody thought to turn on the lights until they left?
It was so much piss every where
The police officer at the end said that he didn’t know that there was a working light in the room
No power.
I know right !
That guy that came in said he had to flip a switch(breaker), didn't he?
They honestly believe this is power? Disgusting idiots. Scary prediction for the future.... Arrest the whole lot...
This was FAR more prominent in our generation dear! They have serious laws against it now!
Imagine how those boys treat girls
Arrest them for what? Just because you don’t like something, and I do like this either, is there a law to arrest them under? Breaking some college rules is not a criminal offense. College hazing was really terrible 50+ years ago. People actually died. I would bet that there has been some kind of rite of passage event since fraternities and sororities were first founded. I would bet that someone’s grandfather or great grandfather was once a member of the fraternity and had some stories to tell about hazing in their day and that gave these guys some ideas.
Very common in a lot of frat houses. The older students let their status go to their heads and go all psycho.
@enid0mom Well, I did some research for you since this case is so peculiar. According to Newsweek and just by looking up Iowa law: "Hazing is strictly forbidden at the University of Iowa and is a misdemeanor under Iowa law."
And as for consequences according to Newsweek and the university: "The fraternity was then formally suspended in May of 2025 for the next four academic years." And the weird dude Joseph Gaya, who wasn't even a student, got arrested but the charges were dropped.
If these "rites of passage" aren't stated in the Fraternities/sororities Bylaws or I guess "rule book" and can't be categorized as a "for fun" event, then it can be placed under Hazing. Because how is someone to know if this was stated to them before hand or not just spur of the moment? No one died in this case because it was stopped, but who knows the mental states of these individuals? Someone at my university in the past few months just jumped off a bridge and he was part of one of these money grabs, so you never know!
If i was the parent of one of those kids, I'd be PISSED!!!
They would be coming home for two years of Community College and therapy. The therapy for self esteem, because anybody who willing subject themselves to this has mental issues.
Their parents probably know whats going on. They did go thru the same shit if they went to a university.
Why? They are all stupid.
They should sue..they have a right to keep those in danger safe.
They all raised morons. I cannot imagine why someone would agree to submit to that nonsense, and I can’t imagine why someone would want to do that to others either.
Fraternity is basically code for future cult members. They need to put a stop to this creepy bullshit.
These young men are our future DRS , Lawyers, Presidents, etc good grief , Lord help us.
Prayers for the future. Little liars and worse! So disrespectful! Soooooo entitled!
Satan is working over time and trying hard as hell to decieve.
Your future doctors and lawyers are going to be AI, so nothing to worry about there.
no not thos frat these fine gentlemen are future proud single wide owners in tin can alley trailerpark working at the local fiah cannery because everyone saw this vid or some video like it now no one except the chinese fish market would hire them
Don't forget future Eptstein island visitors..
Why are the police letting these punks run the show? Start arresting them for obstruction. Get the names and question every person there. Report them all to the dean.
They're just a bunch of college kids hazing. The worst crime possible is maybe some 19 year old drinking. Why should they start snatching people up and arresting people. It's literally a person's right to not answer police questions. Respectfully, how bout lighten tf up?
@AdamDavis-j3x Didn't you hear White Shirt getting loud, making smart-ass comments and being defiant? Even if he didn't want to answer questions, he didn't have to be an asshole about it. The other kids didn't cooperate either but they also weren't acting like jerks. White Shirt was a tough guy wanna-be.
@ChaosControl-dc9wfLittle shittt azzzz white shirt. He’s going to meet someone like him on day.!! I detest a smart azz like him.
@AdamDavis-j3x & he still got arrested FOOL
@AdamDavis-j3x The major problem was the guys sleeping in one room without being able to get out in the event of a fire.
What in the Eyes Wide Shut is going on in this frat house??
😂😂😂😂😂 4real but this is so creepy
HILARIOUS!!! Exactly!!
❤
@m.i.l.a.xo.1992❤
Exactly!! Absolutely creepy!
1st time I ever seen policeman acting “scared” & scattered & not even in the hood!! 👀👀🤣🤣🤣
