Yale University’s Sigma Epsilon chapter and its members have been named in a suit relating to the death of one woman and the injury of another that occurred at a 2011 tailgate.
Yale University Fraternity Sued
At a tailgate for 2011’s faceoff between college football's oldest rivals, Harvard and Yale, a U-Haul truck driven by Sigma Epsilon fraternity member Brendan Ross that was carrying kegs of beer crashed in a parking lot outside Yale’s stadium in New Haven, Conn. The accident resulted in the death of 30-year-old Nancy Barry and extensive injuries to Yale student Sarah Short.
A new lawsuit, filed by Short and Barry’s estate, is going after the Yale’s Sigma Epsilon frat, as well as over 80 of its members. Lawyers for the prosecution claim that since the Sigma Epsilon fraternity organization disowned the chapter, they were left with the option of specifically going after the Yale branch and its members.
