Totally Remorseful and Apologetic Dharun Ravi Files Notice to Appeal His Conviction

Dharun Ravi

Dharun Ravi is so sorry about his part in the cyberbullying, harassment, outing, spying and suicide of Rutgers roommate Tyler Clementi that he has accepted his whopping 30 day prison sentence with the utmost grace and dignity in order to allow Clementi’s grieving family to get on with their lives and hopefully never have to hear his name again for all of their remaining days on this planet.

Excuse me for just a moment here…what’s that, you say? He did what now?!

Ravi’s attorney, Steven Altman, filed a notice with the appellate court, outlining his intention of appealing the convictions for bias intimidation, invasion of privacy, hindering his own apprehension and tampering with evidence for training a webcam on his roommate, Tyler Clementi, in September 2010. The notice lists the proposed issues to be raised on appeal, including that the bias intimidation statute is unconstitutional as applied to Ravi and that several decisions by Superior Court Judge Glenn Berman, who presided over the trial earlier this year, “prejudiced the defendant’s ability to get a fair trial.”

The notice begins the process of the appeal which could take upwards of two years before a three-judge panel obtains the necessary briefs detailing the arguments by both sides.

Err…

I think it’s important to note here that Ravi was expected to face upwards of ten years in jail for his evidence tampering and his role in the suicide of his gay roommate. And as a citizen of India, Ravi was also facing deportation from the United States.

Instead he was sentenced to just 30 days in jail.

Also worth noting, at no point did Ravi express any sort of remorse or offer an apology for his actions until a judge publicly rebuked him at sentencing. Unsurprisingly at that point, Clementi’s parent’s rejected the forced apology.

This story just continues to gross me out.

Do you think Ravi will succeed in his appeal?

Vom dot com. What a despicable, deplorable, and just outright disgusting person. The spoiled little shit has obviously never suffered the consequence of even the most basic of offenses in his entire life. Probably never even been yelled at. How stupid does he look in that all he got was a slap on the wrist (tell me the 30 days wasn’t…) and now he’s whining about that too? SOMEONE DIED in relation to this offense. How does an adult just not manage to put the pieces together here?

Sorry for being so late getting back to. I cannot recall the posting we were ‘discussing’ but by tone of Mr. Rondeau but I image, I thought another point of view should be presented to him. I did not however wish add fuel to his fire on Unicorn Booty.

Ravi is still alive. Tyler is not.
Ravi did not take Tyler’s life.Ravi needs help.
Tyler needed help but chose to take his life.

Ravi needs to know that what he did was wrong, but if Tyler did not take his life , people would be saying Ravi, who?

I think about things like girls-(Making a fool and degrading) and guys-(Some Drunk gay acts) gone wild, where the people in those movies seem drunk, at least some of them, and the creator of the series is rich off the backs of drunk stupid college students…. No one says anything?

I don’t think warehousing people in jail is going to make them more , LOVING, KIND or UNDERSTANDING. Im not saying Ravi does not deserve punishment, but the type of punishment is important in any HATE CRIME.

Can you treat cancer(hate) with cancer(cruelty) and be cancer free (hate free) ?
All these people want, an eye for an EYE , soon we will all be blind.

The lawyers in this are not doing their job. They gave bad “counsel” to Ravi and worse he bought it. He should have taken the first deal and moved but chose to fight this after bad counsel from the lawyers. Figure they would win but they lost. Ravi gets 30 days, no deportation, community service and move on with your life. Again, their arrogance and poor “counsel” they are appealing. This time I hope he gets the right sentence, no community service and sent back to India. Perhaps he’ll think back and say “damn, what was I thinking, I should have taken the deal.” Just before he takes the next help desk cued call for Dell in India. Perhaps Ravi you can find a bridge to live under as this case is giving you the fame you may not want or desire. Stop this madness, serve your time and move with the life you have.
