The panel of five men and three women decided Gruver's parents should receive $6 million for their son's death and another $100,000 for the pain Gruver suffered during and after the fraternity's hazing.

That's what I want to know as well. Only deep pocket indirectly is LSU, can't see how Phi Delta Zeta has that amount without filing bankruptcy, maybe their liability policy.

The jury found Isto was 2% at fault for Gruver's death, which means the family will receive roughly $122,000 after the trial, in addition to the settlements they reached. It's not clear what those amounts are; in December, the plaintiffs struck an $875,000 settlement with LSU, a university spokesperson confirmed Wednesday.


From the embedded advocate article.

The Gruvers sued LSU, Phi Delta Theta, and multiple fraternity members over their sons death. By the time of the civil trial this week, they had reached settlements with all defendants accept fraternity member Ryan Matthew Isto and his insurance company.
