The statements made by Mark Allen Sanders, the fraternity pledge who accused Jon Hamm and six other men of torturing him in 1990 at the University of Texas, have recently resurfaced following the actor’s refusal to comment on the case.
Sanders accused the Mad Men star of beating him and setting his pants on fire, among other violent acts, as part of a Sigma Nu fraternity hazing ritual in November 1990.
Trigger warning: assault. As a result of the violent incident, Sanders sustained a fractured spine, nearly lost a kidney, and ultimately dropped out of the university.
