Sorry for the double post especially after the length of that one.

Here's the thing: I don't know if the family would being suing Sigma Nu if the victim had died.

They might be the kind of folks who'd be so deranged by grief that they go back over every aspect of what happened looking for things that could have gone differently and trying to punish people for them.

On the other hand, they might recognize that their son was stabbed by a particular person in a fight when he tried of his own free will to get that person to leave a party. I think in that case, they would have pushed the criminal prosecution of the attacker and left it at that.

But because the son instead survived with brain damage and they know he will need care for the rest of his life, they have a much bigger reason to think suing the group is what they need to do.
