Voyeuristic cock-knocker Dharun Ravi had no idea that his cruel, invasive prank would lead to his roommate Tyler Clementi’s suicide and subsequent metaphorical rebirth as the 21st Century’s Matthew Shepard. The two Rutgers freshmen had by all accounts a fairly amicable relationship, although Ravi had allegedly expressed apprehension about Clementi’s homosexuality.
Dharun Ravi: Failed To Anticipate The Possible Fallout From Humiliating His Potentially Unstable Gay College Roommate During A Slow News Cycle.
Whether his actions were spurred by homophobia or simply because he was a festering genital lesion, Ravi secretly recorded what is being called “a sexual encounter” between Clementi and another male, and then uploaded it onto the internet.
Clementi, in an apparent suicide three days later, leapt to his death from the George Washington Bridge.
