The Associated Press has an update. See

Brief excerpts from longer article:

The former president of a fraternity at Rider University has settled a lawsuit with the parents of a pledge who drank himself to death last year . . . .
Michael Torney agreed to pay $150,000 to the family of Gary DeVercelly Jr. and agreed to provide information to help the family with their lawsuit against the university, the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity and others over their son's death.

. . . a lawyer for DeVercelly's parents, said Torney's cooperation "will result in the release of significant evidence establishing the responsibility of Rider University and Phi Kappa Tau fraternity."
Torney still faces criminal charges of aggravated hazing. . . .
