2 UNL Students Get Probation in Alcohol Death of 18-Year-Old Frat Member

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Two 23-year-old men have been given a year of probation for providing booze to an 18-year-old member of a University of Nebraska-Lincoln fraternity who authorities say died of alcohol intoxication.

Online court records say Cory Foland and Ross Reynolds were sentenced Monday in Lancaster County District Court. They’d pleaded no contest to misdemeanor procuring alcohol for a minor after prosecutors lowered the charge from a felony. Two others charged in the case who made the same plea deal are scheduled to be sentenced later Monday: Thomas Trueblood and Vance Heyer.

Prosecutors say the four were involved in the death of Clayton Real after an off-campus party on Sept. 4, 2014. Real was found dead the next morning in his room at the FarmHouse Fraternity house.
