Of course I don't know, but I'd think he could get a lot more money from the suit if he wins than they would have been looking at in fundraisers.

Had the chapter or GLO already had fundraisers for the guy? If so, you may be on to something. If not, it's hard to figure out why the family should have thought they would start.

(I know it's all probably very weird because the fraternity may have been advised right from the start to not do anything that made it look like they thought they were responsible. But if they didn't reach out to the family, then it's pretty easy to figure out why the family decided to sue the people most likely to have money, rather than the guy most responsible who probably doesn't have anything to collect.)
