The investigation into what happened last weekend is far from over.

KMTV has learned that representatives from the national chapter of Phi Kappa Psi will meet with Creighton University administrators sometime Wednesday.

Authorities say 18-year-old Teresa Spagna was in her dorm room early Saturday when suspect Christopher Wheeler entered, looking for someone.

Spagna then told him he was in the wrong room.

As Wheeler left, authorities say he turned and used a knife to cut her neck.

Police later picked him up.

On Monday evening, Wheeler’s parents posted his bail.

After he spent the weekend in jail.

In court, Wheeler’s lawyer said he believes wheeler was forced to take some kind of drug following a bad grade on a pledge exam.

But a Phi Kappa Psi alum and Omaha lawyer, Bryan Mick is calling foul.

On social media, Mick repeatedly called Wheeler's story quote "not true" and "garbage."

Wheeler is facing charges for felony assault, use of a weapon and obstructing an officer.
