Dharun Ravi's apology rejected,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
New Brunswick,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], New Jersey: The Indian-born former Rutgers University student convicted of using a webcam to spy on his gay roommate reported to jail Thursday as the victim's parents rejected his written apology as a "public relations piece" and said the judge missed an opportunity to highlight the seriousness of bias crimes.
Dharun Ravi, 20,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], checked into the county jail after agreeing to give up his right to remain free while prosecutors appeal his 30-day sentence.
His roommate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Tyler Clementi, committed suicide in September 2010 by jumping off New York's George Washington Bridge, just days after Ravi used a webcam to see him kissing another man.
Ravi declined the opportunity to speak at his sentencing last week,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], during which Judge Glenn Berman scolded him for never hearing Ravi apologize. Earlier this week,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ravi issued a statement in which he described his actions as "thoughtless,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], insensitive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], immature,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], stupid and childish."
In their first public comments on the sentencing, Joseph and Jane Clementi issued a statement Thursday in which they rejected Ravi's apology as insincere.
"As to the so-called 'apology,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],' it was,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of course,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no apology at all,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but a public relations piece produced by Mr. Ravi's advisers only after Judge Berman scolded Mr. Ravi in open court for his
failure to have expressed a word of remorse or apology,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," they said in a statement.
"A sincere apology is personal. Many people convicted of crimes address the victims and their families in court. Mr. Ravi was given that opportunity but chose to say nothing. His press release did not mention Tyler or our family,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and it included no words of sincere remorse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], compassion or responsibility for the pain he caused."
The Clementis also said they were troubled by the judge's decision not to impose jail time for the bias crimes for which Ravi was convicted,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Ravi was convicted of invasion of privacy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], bias intimidation on the basis of sexual orientation - an offense widely referred to as a hate crime - and trying to cover his tracks by destroying text messages and tweets and tampering with a witness.
The judge indicated the jail time was directed at the attempted cover-up.
The Clementis said they never sought a harsh punishment but believe the judge should have specifically imposed at least some jail time for the bias crimes and invasion of privacy. Ravi was also ordered placed on three years' probation and ordered to pay $10,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000 toward a program to help victims of hate crimes.
The Clementis said they are concerned that the probation was not consistent with the jury's unanimous verdicts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
They also said "it missed a valuable opportunity to reinforce the message that our society takes these types of crimes seriously, and that we will act decisively to protect individuals' privacy and human dignity."
