Frat leader jailed after pledge, 18, died in vodka hazing ritual

Hazing Delta Tau Delta Northern Arizona University
  • Former Northern Arizona University fraternity leader Carter Eslick was sentenced to two months in jail and three years of probation for his role in a fatal hazing incident.
  • The conviction stems from the January death of 18-year-old pledge Colin Daniel Martinez, who died of acute alcohol poisoning with a blood-alcohol level of 0.425 percent.
  • Court documents revealed that Martinez and three other Delta Tau Delta pledges shared two bottles of vodka during a ritual designed to make them vomit.
  • Under the terms of his probation, Eslick must deliver 305 anti-hazing presentations, abstain from alcohol and unprescribed drugs, and complete required treatment.
  • Northern Arizona University suspended the Delta Tau Delta fraternity following Martinez's death, and the national organization subsequently closed the campus chapter.
