This is just a case of out-of-control prosecutorial discretion waiting to happen. . . .
That's really scary stuff.

Agreed! I sense a vagueness and overbreadth challenge is someone's future.
This just points up the importance of a common definition for hazing, even if it's just a common definition for the purposes of this thread.
It also shows the problems with making the blanket statement that "hazing is illegal." It is indeed, but how your state defines hazing and how my state defines hazing is quite, quite different. Without a common, workin definition, simply saying "hazing is illegal" is a pretty meaningless statement.
