Detectives say Champion suffered blunt trauma blows and that he died from shock caused by severe bleeding after he was hazed by other band members on a bus parked outside an Orlando hotel.
Since Champion's death, FAMU and other schools have been under intense scrutiny about how they handle complaints of hazing.
