It doesn't matter what is the cause of his death. If they find it was involuntary those kids will still get time. Murder can be with malice or without.

Southern University student, Omega Psi Phi pledgee dead after off-campus fraternity ritual

I remember being at MBC watching young pledges have to stop and yell and carry all in the yard and on campus. Just randomly hollering and whatnot. It seemed silly to me. All that to join a brotherhood? Silly ass games. We supposed to be grown. I understand the reasoning behind it but I think somewhere along the way years ago they got carried away. Rip to the young cat
That's kind of what I'm saying, although I disagree that a simple finding of "involuntary" means there will be criminal convictions.
Ohhh maannn!!

BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Sources with knowledge of the investigation into Southern University Caleb Wilson’s death told the WAFB I-TEAM Tuesday, the story that was initially told to police about Wilson collapsing at a Baton Rouge BREC park was fabricated.
Sources said pledges with Omega Psi Phi were actually at a warehouse in Baton Rouge when Wilson was punched in the chest and collapsed. He was later pronounced dead by doctors at an area hospital.
There were nine pledges in a line during an unsanctioned fraternity ritual and each one was allegedly forced to take blows to the chest, the sources said. When Wilson was hit, sources with knowledge of the events said he reportedly collapsed to the ground and began having a seizure at the warehouse.
Wilson, 20, of Kenner, La., was a junior at Southern University majoring in mechanical engineering and a member of the university’s band known as the Human Jukebox. Wilson was brought to Baton Rouge General on Bluebonnet where he was pronounced dead.
Following the fraternity brothers bringing Wilson to the hospital, they allegedly gathered at an undisclosed location to discuss the events of the evening. Sources with direct knowledge of the investigation said that’s where the story was created that Wilson collapsed at a park. Those sources said none of the students participating in the fraternity ritual were ever at the park. Hospital staff contacted police about the death, launching an investigation by the Baton Rouge Police Department.
Our sources say there are several individuals allegedly responsible for the fraternity ritual, but not all of them have the same level of involvement.
Initial autopsy results did not reveal a cause of death and further testing is being conducted.
RIP to the young man
I'm in a frat but pledging turned me off to everything

Aight, I hope that it won't happen myself, but we are in America. The most litigious country on the planet, and we black men are not well liked at all. So, the likelihood of a conviction is very high. Involuntary manslaughter is still a crime in the eyes of the law, but it carries less weight as far as a conviction is concerned. Still, lives are going to be ruined because of some bullshit. I've been to college and worked around university students for years and I know that young people do dumb shit. And frat dudes be on some ignorant shit when it don't take all of that to become a member. It is what it is. I hope for the best, but I expect the worst when it comes to the system and young black men.
Add Sadistic to that list.
