Please post updates!
Also, his professor sucks. When I was in school, if a student wasn't pulling their weight in a group project, the rest of the group could complain and get that person kicked out.

If the professor doesn't do anything I would schedule a talk with the department head, with all the evidence you've gathered on the lying ham to show how it isn't that the SO is unwilling to work with a group, but that the ham is trying to shirk her duty, and that he tried to seek help from the professor but found none.
Maybe the SO can even offer to work alone/start over alone, and let the remaining 3 finish what is left. Give the professor additional options for how to handle the situation that the SO is willing to take. Worst case scenario is that the professor simply has a word with the ham and the ham continues to do nothing, then he is back at square one. Best to nip that in the bud by offering to break off from the group to do his own project, or maybe even he and the normal human agree to split into a group of two/two instead, so at least there is still that "group" aspect to the project.

He tired switching several times but the professor kept denying it. He didn;t escalate it since his grades are actually really good in the class and he figured he would show the professor the proof and if the professor hurt the grade then he'd escalate it to the people higher up. I also posted a link to the album in the comments

Yeah it kind of fucking pissed me off. My SO works extremely hard to do well in school to the point where he sacrifices his personal life just so some stupid fucking fat cunt and piss all over his hard work.

Since the Texas Board of Regents decided that professors are now responsible for teaching shit to college aged adults such as personal responsibility and social responsibility (Really?? If you haven't learned it is not socially responsible to go down to the local Walmart and shoot as many people as you can because you can't get laid, then how in fuck am I supposed to teach you??), we are forced to do the dreaded group project. After the project is turned in, I send out a peer group critique form that everyone in the group must fill out and return (or get points docked from his or her grade). It's anonymous, so obviously all students in the group must 'grade' themselves. If one student gets consistently low marks from his or her peers, I take points off of the slacker's paper-- NOT the group paper. I can't tell you how many fat fucks get points deducted for being fat fucks. Group projects suck. I can't really can't think of any other way to make it fair to those who give a fuck about their grades. Fuck common core.

I've actually had pretty decent experiences with group projects. Most of the people I worked with were either human sized or only a little chubby. I even had two very busy student athletes in one group, and they would very rarely have to miss group meetings (and, surprise surprise, would always make up for the time they missed on their own).
I had one really fat person in a group who did nothing. The rest of us ended up speaking with the professor halfway through the semester and got him kicked out of the group.
I feel really bad for people forced to work with lazy fatties. But at least we get great FPH stories from it.
