Because the medical examiner concluded his death was not caused by any single blow, no murder or manslaughter charges are filed.

Robert was a member of the college's famed Marching 100 band when he collapsed and died November 19, 2011 on a bus parked outside a hotel in Orlando. He was 26 years old.

According to some band members, who spoke on condition of anonymity, drum major Robert died after a rite of passage "crossing Bus C" involving a beating aboard a bus:

"Students walk from the front of the bus to the back of the bus backward while the bus is full of other band members, and you get beaten until you get to the back."

The death was ruled a homicide and hazing contributed to his death. Basically the drum majoy was beaten to death, according to police.

The prosecutor, Florida state attorney Lawson Lamar, calls the case "nothing short of an American tragedy":

"While Robert and his family were sacrificing and preparing for his entrance into college, which eventually should have given him a bright and meaningful future, no one could expect that his experience could include being pummeled to death. I have come to believe that hazing is a term for bullying. It's bullying with a tradition that we cannot bear in America."

The prosecutor saays the majority of the charges are hazing resulting in death, which is a third-degree felony. If the defendant does not have a prior record, the maximum punishment for this charge is six years in prison.

None of the names will be released until each of the suspects are in custody.
