Prosecutors have made their mind up with the decision on 12 former Florida A&M University band members who are being charged for the death of 26 year old Robert Champion.
It is said to appear as a hazing death. Hazing is the practice of rituals and other activities involving harassment, abuse or humiliation used as a way of initiating a person into a group.

Ten of the band members are being charged with felony hazing, while the other two defendants are facing crucial manslaughter charges MSN blogger Kyle Hightower reports. 
Champion died in Orlando in November 2011 after he collapsed after what prosecutors say was a savage beating during a hazing ritual. It happened on a bus parked in a hotel parking lot after Florida A&M played Bethune-Cookman in their annual rivalry football game.

Authorities say Champion had bruises on his chest, arms, shoulder and back and died of internal bleeding. Witnesses told emergency dispatchers that the drum major was vomiting before he was found unresponsive aboard the bus.
