Ex-Penn State Frat Leaders Sentenced to Jail in 2017 Hazing Death

Brendan Young and Daniel Casey receive 2-4 months in prison for their roles in the death of Timothy Piazza.

Brendan Young and Daniel Casey, former president and vice president of Beta Theta Pi, pleaded guilty to 14 counts of hazing and one count of reckless endangerment.
Timothy Piazza, a 19-year-old engineering student, died after consuming 18 drinks in two hours and suffering multiple falls during a hazing event.
The case led to the permanent ban of the Beta Theta Pi chapter at Penn State and prompted Pennsylvania lawmakers to pass stricter anti-hazing laws.
Young and Casey will serve 2-4 months in jail, followed by three years of probation and community service, with eligibility for work release.
The Piazza family played a crucial role in advocating for the Timothy J. Piazza Anti-Hazing Law, which imposes harsher penalties for hazing.
