SCHUMANN DETENTION CENTER. 317-YEAR-OLDS — 3 17 YEARS OLDS BROKE OUT USING A SHOVEL. MOTHER OF A PITTSBURGH STUDENT IS SPEAKING OUT ABOUT A SORORITY HAZING INCIDENT THAT PUT HER DAUGHTER IN THERAPY. TONIGHT SHE HAS MORE DETAILS IT’S ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING. Reporter: IT’S BEEN A BRUTAL MONTH FOR SUE’S 20-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER ALEXANDRIA,
HAZED WHILE PLEDGING A SORORITY AT PIT. SHE CAN’T GO TO CLASS ALONE. SHE CAN’T BE BY HERSELF. Reporter: IT HAPPENED ON THE 21ST AND 23 RD, BUT SHE DIDN’T SAY ANYTHING UNTIL HER MOTHER SAW A NASTY BRUISE. SHE BROKE DOWN SOBBING. Reporter: HER DAUGHTER TOLD HER SHE AND 11 OTHER PLEDGES
WERE FORCED INTO A CAR AND DRIVEN TO A HOME WHERE THEY WERE BEATEN WITH PADDLES IN A DARK BASEMENT. SHE HAD BEEN KICKED, PUSHED, SLAPPED. SHE HAD BEEN FORCED TO INGEST ROT TEN FOOD. ALEXANDRIA EVEN BROKE A TOOTH. POLICE CHIEF TOLD ME HIS OFFICERS ARE INVESTIGATING. Reporter: THESE YOUNG GIRLS
WEREN’T AWARE OF WHAT WAS GOING ON AND WHAT WAS RIGHT AND WRONG. I THINK THEY NEED TO GET-TOGETHER AND EXPLAIN THAT’S NOT RIGHT. Reporter: OFFICIALS HERE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SUSPENDED THE SORORITY. THE SORORITY’S NATIONAL ORGANIZATION ISSUED A STATEMENT AND SAID THEY WERE APPALLED AND HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR HAZING.
HER DAUGHTER WANTED TO BE PART OF THE GROUP SINCE SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL. AS A MOM, I’M SORRY, BUT I WISH I COULD HAVE PROTECTED HER,
