Family of Danny Santulli Advocates Against Hazing

Danny Santulli, a former University of Missouri student, suffered permanent brain damage from a hazing incident at a fraternity event in October 2021, where he was forced to consume excessive alcohol. His parents, Tom and Mary Pat Santulli, are now advocating for accountability, seeking serious charges against the students involved, as they believe that harsher penalties are necessary to deter such behavior. They have publicly shared their son's story to raise awareness about the dangers of hazing in Greek life, emphasizing the peer pressure and abuse he experienced leading up to the incident. The Santulli family's ordeal is featured in A&E's docuseries 'Houses of Horror: Secrets of College Greek Life,' which examines the severe consequences of fraternity hazing. Following the incident, legal actions resulted in guilty pleas from some fraternity members for supplying liquor to a minor and hazing-related charges. Despite the challenges, the Santulli family remains hopeful, noting Danny's gradual improvements in care and therapy.
