I don't think that the alleged commission of a felony should result in an alumnus being expelled from a fraternity. First of all, he has only be CHARGED. Isn't it kind of crappy for the fraternity to ASSUME that he's guilty before he's had his day in court? It may be hard to believe, but sometimes people are charged with crimes they didn't commit. Even if he did it, though, I don't think it automatically follows that he's undeserving of brotherhood.

But then of course I have mad love for TEH FELONS.
Perhaps they know that he is in fact guilty? Perhaps they've gone through that process internally and to them, he's guilty? In my national organization, the commission of a felony is automatic grounds for expulsion. Also, there is Conduct unbecoming of a Sigma Nu (I paraphrased that) -- also grounds for removal.

It's very possible that ACACIA has similar provisions and is now going through the motions to remove a member that offers them nothing and has brought shame to their house.
