ABC News reports that on Monday afternoon, a New Jersey judge sentenced former Rutgers student Dharun Ravi to 30 days jail time for spying on his roommate Tyler Clemente's homosexual affairs. Several days after the spying, Clementi committed suicide by jumping off the George Washington Bridge.
In March, Ravi was found guilty of a bias crime for using the webcam to spy on Clemente. He must report to Middlesex Adult Correctional Center on May 31 at 9:00 a.m. for a probationary sentence.
'I do not believe [Ravi] hated Tyler Clementi,' Judge Glenn Berman reportedly told the court. 'He had no reason to, but I do believe he acted out of colossal insensitivity.'
Judge Berman also noted Ravi's seeming lack of remorse. 'I heard this jury say, 'guilty' 288 times'24 questions, 12 jurors. That's the multiplication,' Berman said. 'I haven't heard you apologize once.'
In addition to jail time, Reuters' Matthew Keys reports via Twitter that the judge ordered Ravi to 300 hours of community service, to pay a $10,000 assessment to probation department, and to attend counseling.
