Brendan Young and Daniel Casey, the former president and vice president of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity at Penn State University, were sentenced on Tuesday to two to four months in prison and three years of probation for their roles in the 2017 hazing death of sophomore Timothy Piazza. Piazza died after falling during hazing rituals that involved heavy alcohol consumption. The sentencing, announced by the Pennsylvania Attorney General, marks a significant development in a case that led to tougher anti-hazing legislation.
