A former Northwestern football player alleges in a lawsuit that former coach Pat Fitzgerald & others were “negligent” in failing to prevent hazing. '(NU) has had longstanding issues involving hazing & bullying that takes on a sexual and/or racist tone.”
In a statement, the lawyers representing John Doe — Patrick A. Salvi II of Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard, Parker Stinar of the Stinar Law Firm, and Adam Pulaski of Pulaski Kherker — encouraged “anyone who may have information related to this matter” to contact their firms.
On Monday, eight former Northwestern football players announced they had retained a law firm and attorneyover hazing within the football program. The Levin & Perconti law firm said it is partnering with civil rights attorney Ben Crump to represent the players. In January, Northwestern hired an outside law firm to conduct a six-month investigation into hazing in the program. On July 7, the school announced that the evidence largely backed up accusations but couldn’t point to specific misconduct by a player or coach. It also said Fitzgerald was not aware and suspended him for two weeks without pay.
