It was a fatal blow struck from cyberspace.
A shy Rutgers freshman was so humiliated when two cruel classmates secretly
streamed live video of his gay encounter that he leaped to his death from the
George Washington Bridge, authorities said yesterday.
"Jumping off the gw bridge sorry," Tyler Clementi,
18, posted on his
Facebook page just eight minutes before his plunge at around 8:50 p.m. on
Sept. 22.
Clementi's suicide led to a swift criminal probe and the arrest of his
roommate, Dharun Ravi, and a fellow freshman, Molly Wei, for their alleged vile
voyeurism. ( SOCIAL

(Billy's Thoughts>>>
This is sad. We need to teach young people that with the new media comes responsibility. The people who filmed this kid should be dealt with as tough as the courts can.
Please pray for this young man's family.)
