Teen Pleads Guilty in Fraternity Hazing Death | Houston News
Description
A 20-year-old fraternity member, Carter Eslick, pleaded guilty to felony hazing linked to the death of 18-year-old Colin Martinez, who died from alcohol poisoning during a Delta Tau Delta initiation in Flagstaff. Eslick admitted to supplying the alcohol and directing the deadly drinking game that led to Martinez’s fatal blood alcohol level of .425—over five times the legal limit. While probation is guaranteed under the plea deal, the judge can still send him to jail for up to a year. Eslick waived his right to a jury trial and forfeited civil rights including voting and gun ownership. His sentencing is set for September 30th. The fraternity suspended operations after the incident, as the family’s attorney emphasized this was a preventable tragedy demanding accountability.
