The charges, which prosecutors put through on Wednesday, concern the death of 19-year-old WSU freshman Samuel Martinez, who died of acute alcohol intoxication on November 12, 2019. Martinez had attended a frat event that night, allegedly partaking in an initiation process, according to the AP. The local coroner ruled his death an accident.  The 15 members of the fraternity who were charged are accused of supplying liquor to one or more pledges. In Washington state, providing liquor to minors is a gross misdemeanor that can net up to a year in jail and a $5,000 fine.
