A university student in New York went to sleep drunk in his dormitory bed -- and woke up in a hospital paralyzed from the neck down. Sophomore Kei Usami, 20, fell nearly 4 feet off a school-supplied "loft" bed in February, smashing his head so hard that the impact fractured his spine, according to a suit blaming Fordham University for neglecting to install guardrails on the bed. The universitys student volunteer EMS squad only sealed the school tennis players fate by transporting him without a neck brace to St. Barnabas Hospital, charges his lawyer, Vito Cannavo.
