Nine years ago today, Ateneo Law School sophomore Leonardo Villa died from injuries he suffered during initiation rites of the Aquila Legis fraternity. The case led to the passage of the Anti-Hazing Law and the indictment of 31 fraternity members. In 1994, 24 of the 31 were sentenced to life imprisonment. While the case is pending before the Court of Appeals, the Caloocan City Regional Trial Court has suspended its hearing of the case against the rest of the accused. None of those convicted has been put behind bars. Meanwhile, Villa's father died in March last year.
