Miami Secret Service agent charged in near-deadly fraternity hazing, officials say

Marquez Christopher Pinder, a US Secret Service agent, was arrested alongside Jared Lamar James and Elijah Delano Dyous for orchestrating fraternity hazing in Miami. Pinder allegedly served as dean of pledges during Kappa Alpha Psi rituals involving prolonged, repeated beatings with canes and paddles. These incidents, occurring in April, resulted in two victims requiring emergency care and hospitalization for near-fatal injuries. Florida state investigators uncovered the evidence leading to the arrests of the three men.
