Season 5
Episode 100

This episode is rated a 5 (on my Serious Crime Scale). In the spring of 2017, Timothy Piazza was like many college sophomores — eager to find his place, to build lasting friendships, and to be part of something bigger than himself. At just 19 years old, he had his sights set on Beta Theta Pi, one of the most respected fraternities at Pennsylvania State University. To Tim, pledging meant brotherhood — an unbreakable, lifelong bond with men who would have his back. But what he couldn’t see was the danger lurking beneath the surface. Behind the promises of tradition and unity was a brutal culture of hazing, one that didn’t just test loyalty — it pushed young men to the edge of what their bodies and spirits could endure. For some, like Tim, the price would prove far too high.Listen now to hear the full story.
