2 Fraternity Members Sentenced in Death
Two members of a banned fraternity chapter at Southeast Missouri State University have been sentenced for the hazing death of a pledge.
Vincent L. King, 21, was sentenced to five years for involuntary manslaughter and one year probation for hazing. Michael Q. Williams, 20, received a 90-day sentence for hazing and five years’ probation for involuntary manslaughter.
The two men were sentenced Friday by two judges in St. Louis Circuit Court. Both men had earlier pleaded guilty in the death of Kappa Alpha Psi pledge Michael Davis, 25, who died in February after being beaten during a hazing ritual.
