Case 336: Tyler Clementi
Case 336 Tyler Clementi
When 18-year-old Tyler Clementi began his freshman year at Rutgers University in 2010, he was eager to embrace his newfound independence. Before the semester began, Tyler applied for campus housing and was randomly assigned a roommate – another 18-year-old freshman named Dharun Ravi.
But within weeks of moving in, their lives would become the focus of news headlines, sparking a national conversation about cyberbullying, LGBTQ+ rights and the devastating consequences of digital humiliation.
