The family of Adam Oakes, who suffered alcohol poisoning at a hazing ritual in 2021, is suing the Delta Chi fraternity and its VCU chapter.
Adam Oakes died in 2021 at a "big-little" initiation party with the Delta Chi fraternity.
Criminal charges have been dropped against five men who were accused of “hazing” in connection with the death of a Virginia Commonwealth University student, Adam Oakes, last year.
Adam Oakes was a 19-year-old freshman at Virginia Commonwealth University and an underground pledge at the now-expelled Delta Chi fraternity.
As part of a plea agreement, he received no jail time, 100 hours of community service and a requirement that he participate in four hazing prevention training sessions.
