Hazing admissions and denials
2005-2007
About the only thing residents of Denton County agree upon is that they disagree upon whether antics by wrestlers at a 2005 pool party at a private residence constituted hazing. A judge ruled that he saw no evidence that compelled him to proceed with hazing charges against a coach and several wrestlers. However, the Dallas Morning News said allegations originally were that the incident was an initiation in which sexual assaults and beatings took place. The Morning News reported that “three juveniles, including at least one initially charged with sexual assault, pleaded true to assault charges in adjudicated agreements.†An 18-year-old was given probation and community service, according to the paper.
