Grand jury investigates death of FSU fraternity pledge from Broward

A grand jury has recommended continuing the investigation into the death of a Florida State University fraternity pledge from Lighthouse Point.

The Leon County grand jury on Tuesday issued a 17-page presentment order that says the investigation into the death of Andrew Coffey is not complete.

County Medical Examiner Dr. Lisa Flannagan said in testimony that the 20-year old Coffey died of alcohol poisoning and had a blood alcohol level of .447 at the time of the autopsy.

Four members of Phi Kappa Phi and 38 pledges appeared before the grand jury. University President John Thrasher, Vice President of Student Affairs Amy Hecht and Coffey's mother, Sandy, also appeared.
