PSU Students Convicted In Hazing Death Produce Video
POSTED: 1:41 am EDT May 20, 2004
PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. -- Part of a plea deal for 11 Psi Epsilon Chi fraternity
brothers involved in the death of a Plattsburgh State pledge was to warn
others about the dangers of hazing.
The hour-long documentary that the group made showing footage of the
investigation and emotional testimony about the dangers of hazing was shown
for the first time on Wednesday night and will be shown again next Wednesday
on Mountain Lake PBS.
Police said freshman Dean Jennings was made to drink so much water during a
hazing ritual that he died of water intoxication.
Clinton County District Attorney Rich Cantwell hopes the video will be used
at colleges and high schools around the country, and said some have already
expressed interest in obtaining it.
