Noah Domingo, 18, died in January from alcohol poisoning at an off-campus fraternity party. Five of his fraternity brothers were charged with misdemeanors related to his death.
The death of a UC Irvine freshman after an off-campus party in January was caused by accidental alcohol poisoning, the Orange County coroner’s office said Monday.Zavier Larenz Brown, 21; Jonathan Anephi Vu, 22; Mohamed Ibragim Kharaev, 21; Caleb Gavin Valleroy, 20; and Jonathan Gabriel Villicana, 21, were charged with one misdemeanor count each of violating Irvine city code by allowing a party or gathering where underage drinking was permitted.
Brown also was charged with one misdemeanor count of furnishing alcohol to a minor causing great bodily injury.Officials said there was no evidence that any of the defendants had engaged in hazing in connection with Domingo’s death.If convicted on all counts, Brown could face a maximum sentence of 18 months in jail. Kharaev, Vu, Valleroy and Villicana could face a maximum of six months.
“Unfortunately, current law prevented prosecutors from filing anything more than a misdemeanor in this case,” Spitzer said. “The furnishing of alcohol to a minor that results in great bodily injury or death should be a felony, and the Orange County district attorney’s office is pursuing legislation to make that change.”
