another fraternity is in trouble!

The son of U.S. Rep. John Carney, D-Del., is one of five defendants in two lawsuits seeking at least $50 million stemming from the death of a Clemson University fraternity pledge.

Each of the lawsuits filed Monday seeks at least $25 million in actual damages in the September death of 19-year-old Tucker Hipps. Hipps fell from a bridge into rocky, shallow water during a Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity run.

In addition to Samuel Quillen Carney, the lawsuits name two other fraternity members, as well as the university and the fraternity.
