University of Mississippi fraternity members smile in mugshots after brutal beating charges

The Daily Mississippian, the university's student newspaper, reported on Wednesday that the five Pi Kappa Alpha members have been arrested and charged in the Oct. 6 assault of Sigma Pi member Jeremy Boyle at that fraternity's house.

Boyle heard a disturbance in the house's backyard and went outside to investigate when he was attacked, the Clarion-Ledger reported.

Boyle suffered a ruptured eardrum, lung contusion and concussion along with several broken teeth during the attack, according to the Mississippian.
"They descended upon him and beat him unmercifully. Beat him within an inch of his life," the student's grandfather Robert Boyle told an NBC affiliate.

1. Totally weird.

I'm sure when they hit the big house they won't be smiling.

[Lulu Belle]

3. Especially the guy in the lower center pic

That pretty boy is in for a very rough time.

[GummyBearz]

2. Fuck the greek system

it IS a legit means for scum like this to get together and create more scum. I'm not even limiting this to southern white frats. I lived with a good friend who was asian when I was an undergrad in california, he joined a frat one year and shit like this became common. Next year I bailed and found a new friend to live with

[trumad]

4. One frat guy being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

These boys are in big trouble.

[GummyBearz]

6. Not sure who you are referring to as the one frat guy...

IMO they join frats with certain reputations because they want to join in.

[trumad]

11. That's one frat guy.

Five members of Pi Kappa Alpha at Ole Miss were arrested in connection with the assault of Sigma Pi brother Jeremy Boyle.

[GummyBearz]

18. Yes...

Those are 5 frat guys who wanted to join in on the "fun" that the frat advertised to them.. Why do you keep saying the same thing? I get it.

[trumad]

19. I think we are crossing signals

A guy from another frat was attacked by these 5 guys.

We are talking the same thing I guess.

Peace

[Eleanors38]

5. They weren't smiling after this: FLA 38. OLE MISS 10.

[Vinca]

7. Well, maybe their charming smiles will get them more dates in the big house.

[Bucky]

10. Rape jokes aside (and shame on you, by the way)

(because rape is NOT funny, even when it happens to people we don't like)

I'm pretty sure we can all look forward to these affluenza-suffering frat boys expressing some deeply rehearsed remorse once they're finally in front of a judge. At this point I expect them to get nothing worse than community service, probation, and maybe a stern talking to from the judge. Maybe this judge will surprise me.

[Vinca]

13. If you will reread my post you will notice I said zero about rape.

You, on the other hand, seem obsessed by it. There is consensual sex among people of the same sex in and out of prison. That isn't rape. Get a grip.

[Bucky]

15. Oh hogwash, you know perfectly well you were implying nonconsensual sex

Either that, or you were suggesting they were either all gay now (but of course you weren't) or that they would turn gay as a result of their incarceration (but obviously you weren't saying that, either).

You made a trite rape joke. You could at least be honest about it and try not to trivialize sexual assault in the future.

[Vinca]

23. I used the word date and in all honesty rape never entered my mind.

Stop seeing things that aren't there. My pun was meant to be about the prospect of incarceration and nothing more. I do not trivialize sexual assault. I did not make a rape joke. You owe me an apology.

[alcibiades_mystery]

24. People who joke about prison rape always try these pathetic dodges when called on it

Your interlocutor should be ashamed. DU has been much better lately, with juries fully willing to remove prison rape jokes, even when they are cowardly dodges and heh-heh insinuations like this one.

[Vinca]

26. I give up. You guys always see what you want to see.

I was finding it kind of amusing the grinning guys would be facing years in prison and figured they wouldn't be grinning quite as giddily when they realized the people available behind bars. But flog away if it makes you feel better. There is no room for humor when the satirically-challenged come on board.

[alcibiades_mystery]

31. Your dodge is ludicrous

You thought their prison "dates" would be funny? Like that makes any sense at all. You went for a prison rape joke and it failed miserably. Hopefully, you'll know that that type of shit does not fly here, next time you feel inclined to discuss "dates."

Honestly, do you think anyone believes your ridiculous denials?

[Vinca]

32. I'm going to make only one more remark on this thread and it's this.

If I had meant "rape," I would have said "rape." I'm not afraid of the word. The faux outrage pile on is, pure and simple, libelous. It's never happened to me before, but I've seen it happen to many others on this site. That's why, with some regularity, the "Goodbye DU" posts appear. Hate to disappoint, but I'm staying.

[alcibiades_mystery]

34. Whatever

You'll know better next time, and so will others reading this thread. Prison rape jokes aren't funny, and you will get called out on them on these boards.

[Vinca]

36. Apparently I must add one more thing.

I will say what I say and if you have a reading comprehension problem, that's up to you to resolve.

[snooper2]

35. I'm staying too! although dates in the big house mean only one thing...

PET SHOP!

[Bucky]

38. !!!!!!

so much awesomeness!! my head just had an awesplosion!

[Bluenorthwest]

25. Your revolting comment was the second revolting comment in this thread

So you are not alone.

[Vinca]

27. You're seeing things that aren't there, but knock yourself out if it makes you feel better.

I am not a person who would joke about rape - and I didn't. In fact, I'm a person who used to work with rape victims. Sometimes the PC police on this site read more into a post than is there and this is one of those times.

[Iggo]

37. Prison rape joke.

You guys are fucking hilarious.

[KamaAina]

8. Well, the guy in the lower right isn't smiling.

Maybe there's hope for him.

[Rex]

9. Er...umm...why did they beat a fellow frat brother almost to death?

I mean, I understand that frats are where stupid people go to hook up...but the beating makes no sense. They were waiting for a fellow frat brother to come outside...so they could beat him to death? A prank? Beating someone to death? One of their own?

What kind of frat is that?

Goodluck boys...I don't think prison is going to be a very nice place.

[trumad]

12. He wasn't a fellow frat brother.

Five members of Pi Kappa Alpha at Ole Miss were arrested in connection with the assault of Sigma Pi brother Jeremy Boyle that left the victim with a multitude of serious injuries. Boyle suffered a concussion, broken ear drum, broken teeth, bruised lung, and bruised ribs as a result of the vicious beat down.

[Rex]

20. Okay I missed that thanks, so they beat up a rivial frat brother.

Still stupid beyond comprehension.

[joeybee12]

14. They sort of look like nerds...

Nerds who are real a**holes.

[LuvNewcastle]

16. I'm glad that the guy who was beaten

survived the attack. I hope he bankrupts the other guys' fraternity. Those are some sick, terrible people. They all need to do hard time. I think that's the only way they'll learn from this experience. Senseless, violent crime should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. People who do things like this represent the worst characteristics that humanity has to offer.

[hifiguy]

17. Enjoy the Big House, dudebros.

Sounds like you're gonna be there for a while.

[bullwinkle428]

30. I have a very sick feeling that none of these assholes will do any kind

of hard time. Background of privilege, connections, etc....they'll end up doing "community service" or something, and the records will be expunged. Meanwhile, how many black kids are sitting behind bars for marijuana possession?

[HubertHeaver]

21. Tom Delay wannabees

[denbot]

22. I'm sure Fox News will run endless exposes on their Thuggishness, and cultural rot.

Oh wait, maybe not..

[lonestarnot]

28. I bet they are not smiling today.

[Stinky The Clown]

29. Mug shots

Which will better stand the test of time? Which will least embarrass you later?



ALWAYS smile for your mug shot

[leftyladyfrommo]

33. What is it with these guys in frat houses?

They are always on the news for doing really horrible things.

39. Ole Miss: Frat brother, pledges were trying to steal statue

le Miss spokesman Danny Blanton said that the five students told investigators that they went to the Sigma Pi fraternity house around 4 a.m. on Oct. 6 to try to steal a donkey statue kept by the Sigma Pi chapter.

Pi Kappa Alpha member James Declan Basile was accompanied by four pledges — Tucker Cole Steil, Austin Rice, Christian Guy and Kyle Hughes. University police say Steil and Basile assaulted Boyle, a junior accounting major from Pennsylvania. It's not clear exactly how the alleged assault unfolded.

Boyle suffered a concussion, several broken teeth, a ruptured eardrum and had a bruised lung, the Daily Mississippian (http://bit.ly/1PEmIsP) reported. He was treated at Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi in Oxford and released.

Steil was arrested Oct. 16 on felony assault charges. He posted $10,000 bail and was released Monday from the Lafayette County jail, the Oxford Eagle (http://bit.ly/1W7r2Qb) reported.

Basile was charged with misdemeanor assault, hazing and theft. Rice, Christian and Hughes were charged with misdemeanor theft.
