Isleworth, Middlesex. <br/> <br/>M/S of a woman reading magazine. She is leaning over sink in front of a mirror. She is obviously waiting to have her hair done. A man comes from behind and starts cutting her hair. M/S of the girl's face - lovely face. A woman comes and wraps towel around the girl's neck and shoulders. Elderly man comes and starts combing the girl's hair. The man starts fiddling with several switches on the wall. <br/> <br/>This is a research centre in Isleworth, Middlesex, where scientists are studying the hair and examining the effects of different kinds of shampoo on different hairs in effort to improve the existing shampoos. High angle M/S of the girl's hair being washed. M/S of the other girl (an assistant) giving a little glass jar with shampoo to the man. High angle C/U shot of one half of the girl's hair being washed with the shampoo. The other half is washed with different shampoo.

TVU 15 KAMALA HARRIS ATLANTIC CITY NJ OMEGA PSI PHI FRATERNITY LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE ABC UNI 071319 2020 Sen. Kamala Harris mostly stuck to talking points during her remarks at the Omega Psi Phi Leadership convention. However much of her time was spent focused on her lines she's used at majority black events such as National Action Network and NAACP. Although she stuck with talking points, Harris wasn't shy about mentioning race explicitly to the African-American crowd which mostly comprised of members of historic African-American organizations Omega Psi Phi and a few members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority and The Links. AKA and Links are two groups Harris is a member of. Attorney Benjamin Crump introduced Harris and announced that has been asked to serve as an advisor on criminal justice issues. Crump served as the attorney for the families of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. The Senator during her remarks made a reference to New Orleans talking about Hurricane Barry and President Donald Trump's response to hurricanes. Although she didn't explicitly mention Trump's handling of Hurricane Maria, it was nuanced and very specifically targeting race. "Pay attention to what's happening in New Orleans this weekend. Pay attention to which communities will be devastated first, and not have access to clean water and have their communities deteriorate because of this climate crisis. Let's look at that rap sheet. Let's look at the rap sheet when he came in strong man right? Just swinging as powerful around... says he's gonna put America first says he's gonna put America first... Getting carried away." 1528 She explicitly talks about race moments later calling it America's Achilles heel. On yesterday's airing of The Breakfast Club, Harris noted that she felt her campaign had specifically been targeted by Russian bots. "Russia interfered in the election of the President of the United States. Which by the way, which by the way, was a campaign that was about misinformation, targeted on targeted on America's Achilles heel, which is race and focused on black folks." 1529 Near the beginning of her remarks she flubbed the Omega's name twice. First time saying "Osa--" corrects herself and says Omega Psi Phi and then calls the organization "Que Psi Phi," that drew a few comments from the crowd that appeared to be slightly annoyed that she didn't pronounce the frats name correctly. She would later rebound and receive several applauses later within her speech. 1500 Moments later after her flub she took a jab at the members of the media who cover her who aren't familiar with the Divine Nine, a group that comprises of the nine members of The National Pan-Hellenic Council. Two of the nine members of Divine Nine include Omega Psi Phi and Alpha Kappa Alpha. Earlier this year, a reporter tweeted comment about the groups signature "Skee Wee" sounding like screeches which drew criticisms both on and off line. The California Senator took time to mention during her remarks that her candidacy has forced people and to learn more about the black community. "I have tried to explain to folks that, that there are certain aspects of American history that just are not known by the general public. And they have a responsibility to know it. Because it's not only about our history, it's America's history. And so as I've been running in this race, one of the things I've become aware of is the folks who generally cover these elections are not really familiar with the divine nine. And with our life's experiences, and with our sisterhood and Brotherhood's and with the thing that we were raised and learned to do as members of the Divine Nine, which is to live a life of service, to live a life that was about being measured based on your impact on others, and how you lift others up." 1500 Omegas is the first black fraternity founded at a historically black college, Howard University. The first black fraternity however is Alpha Phi Alpha which was founded at Cornell University. Slight yet, notable distinction. Most of her speech stuck close to talking points, She talked about her time as a prosecutor and how she overheard colleagues talking about people in the community that looked like her. She declared to her colleagues "I have family members that dress that way. I got people who live in that neighborhood. And I'm about to date myself, and I have a tape of that music in my car right now... Too Short." That line drew a big laugh from harris and the crowd. Harris has said several times that the rapper Too Short is one of her favorite artists. Another thing I noted was she talked about home ownership and people who were proud of their lawns She's used this a number of times on the campaign trail but I just want to make a quick note on the subject, this is a part of one of the first speeches I ever heard her give back at the 2012 DNC Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. Harris routinely sticks to talking points and in this instance she stuck close to what she knows. She talked about standing up to mortgage companies telling executives "have you ever known somebody who was proud of their lawn? Because that's what we're talking about. We're talking about families that understand that their hard work resulted in that homeownership, which represented their dignity, their life savings and their assets."1516 She at one point referred to herself as a top-tier candidate "And so as I stand before you today, as a serious, and as they call it top tier candidate to be the next president of the United States. I will tell you that we have a fight in front of us." 1521 --- 145852 Good afternoon. Good afternoon. Good afternoon. I just said to Attorney Crump, I do believe that is the best introduction I have ever received. I do. And the way that you, you know, listen, we've all been following and admiring and praising the work of attorney crump for so long. You have been a voice of conscience, you have been a voice of leadership, you have been a voice of courage, and voice of strength. 145925 And in our country, this is the kind of leadership we need. You are a national leader and you are a dear friend, and I thank you. Can we please hear it for Attorney Ben Crump for that introduction and for your support. I thank you. (?) David Marianne, I thank you for leadership, first vice grand(?), Ricky Lewis. Second vice grand(?), Austin Tatum. And all the members of the supreme council and the members of Omega psi phi Fraternity Incorporated. 150001 (?) psi phi, I thank you. And I was talking to some of my classmates at Howard about all of our days together as members of our respective sororities and fraternities. And you know, you talk about these national elections and these elections for president. And it's interesting. I have tried to explain to folks that there are certain aspects of american history that just are not known by the general public. And they have a responsibility to know it, because it's not only about our history. It's America's history. 150042 And so, as I've been running in this race, one of the things I've become aware of is the folks who generally cover these elections are not really familiar with the Divine Nine and with our life's experiences and with our sisterhoods and brotherhoods. And with the thing that we were raised and learned to do as members of The Divine Nine which is to live a life of service, to live a life that was about being measured based on your impact on others and how you lift others up. 150118 And so when I think back on all that we learned as young adults, many of us who joined our sororities and fraternities in college, we learned at a very young age how we will be judged but also the duty we have on this earth which is to serve and lift others up. And we learned it through fellowship. We learned it because we learned and knew that we should be deep of faith. And that we should always believe in what can be unburdened by what has been. 150153 And so I thank you all, the brothers of Omega psi phi for joining together today to give me this warm welcome and for all that you do as leaders not only in our respective communities but as national leaders so thank you for this warm welcome. And so. As everyone here knows for more than one hundred years after the founding of this prestigious fraternity at my alma mater Howard University you know. [15:00:47] The brothers of Omega sci fi have helped raise generations of leaders who have been committed to the principles of manhood scholarship persistence perseverance and uplift including men like Langston Hughes. Count Basie. Vernon Jordan Reverend Jesse Jackson Michael Jordan and Shaquille O'Neal range in the span of those who have excelled in their various professions. And as the first black fraternity founded at an HBC U. You and the members of this organization and this fraternity have helped shape the history of our country. [15:01:30] And in so doing you have also fought as leaders on the frontlines always in the fight for justice and equality. And it has. It has been your commitment that is grounded in a mantra that you and I know well. [15:01:47] We memorized it early in our lives and that mantra being to see it through. [15:01:53] To see it through. [15:01:57] And we learned. Eyes front. Head high to the finish. See it through. [15:02:14] And so in the 1940s the members of this great fraternity were as front as you protested discrimination in the armed forces. In the 1950s your future members Ernest Green stood head high to integrate Central High School in Little Rock Arkansas. [15:02:41] And for decades after members of this fraternity have been leaders in the fight for equality through sit ins and marches in presidential campaigns and in cabinet rooms. [15:02:55] And that is the commitment of the men of all make a sci fi because of course the principles of manhood scholarship perseverance and uplift require a commitment to the fight for equality. And I think of this fight through the lens of how I was raised. Where I was raised was a community that was committed to the fight for equality I was born in Oakland California as a daughter of the civil rights movement. My sister my and I. We joke that we grew up surrounded by a bunch of adults who spent full time marching and shouting. For this thing called justice. And of course of the many heroes of that great civil rights movement there were the lawyers Thurgood Marshall Charles Hamilton Houston Constance Baker Motley. Those individuals who understood like Attorney Crump the great power. [15:03:57] The power applause. Of the skill of knowing. [15:04:03] And being well versed in the law and how through that skill we can translate the passion from the streets to the courtrooms of America and do the work that must constantly be done of reminding folks of that great promise we articulated in 1776 that we are all equal and should be treated that way. [15:04:29] And so I was raised to admire those heroes and I was raised by the heroes in my own family. Those who inspired me and those who were among the first generation of black lawyers in the Bay Area in California people like my uncle Sherman who many of you most of you I'm sure never heard of him and have never met him but I will tell you about my uncle Sherman. [15:04:56] So my uncle Sherman he was an extraordinary community and neighborhood lawyer. [15:05:03] Michael Sherman was someone who taught me as a little girl that the law can be used in the fight for justice. And he taught me also the importance of thinking strategically. [15:05:16] Michael Sherman helped raise us in a way that said calmly you can be anything you want to be but you gotta be smart. So my uncle Sherman when I was a young girl taught me how to play chess. [15:05:30] Because he said you need to know life is like that chessboard. They're gonna be all kinds of players on that board and they have all kinds of different moves. And he said you have to think strategically you have to learn to think about what that tenth move will be before you make that first move. And he taught me if you're smart that part can take out that King. [15:05:59] And he taught us. [15:06:01] That you have the power if you learn if you educate yourself and if you focus and Michael Sherman was one of those folks also and again Attorney Crump I'm inspired by you to share the story about my uncle Sherman Michael Sherman was that person in our family who whenever somebody had a problem whenever and wherever one was going through something and they didn't know how to deal with it folks would always say we'll call Sherman. Carl Sherman he'll know how to handle this. You'll know how to make sense of it. He'll know how to help. And so then eyes front head high. He always saw everything through the end. And I decided at a young age I wanted to be that person. I wanted to be the person that folks would call when they were in need. That person that could protect people that could help them out that can make sense of what was wrong and fix what was wrong. So after graduating at Howard University I went back home to California to law school and then my family gathered round and they said OK. Kamla So what are you going to do in your fight for justice. And I got all excited and I said to them Well I've decided to become a prosecutor. [15:07:22] Well if you have any sense of who my family is you will know that at best. They found it a curious decision and with some of them I had to defend this decision like one would have theses. [15:07:35] But what I said is I said look do we always and only have to be on the outside. [15:07:43] Trying to change it from the outside banging down the door on bended knee. Can't we always be also thinking about how we can be on the inside where the decisions are being made in a way that we can reform it from that place. And so I decided that's how I wanted to play my role in doing what I was born knowing had to be done around reforming a criminal justice system that needed to be as Attorney Crump said more fair more just and more equitable. And so I became a prosecutor and I became one of the first of a handful of black prosecutors in Alameda County which is in California its base being Oakland California. When I was elected to become a district attorney I was the first black woman elected as you have heard to be a district attorney in a state of 40 million people. [15:08:37] When I was elected. [15:08:40] As district attorney there are only three black elected district attorneys in the entire United States of America. [15:08:52] When I was elected attorney general there was no other black elected attorney general in the United States but I knew. From when I entered that field I knew the unilateral power. [15:09:08] Of discretion that prosecutors have to make decisions about someone else's life or death. The power almost unilateral to determine whether somebody will be charged or let off. The power to decide whether someone will be tried as a juvenile or an adult. The power to determine who gets sent to death row or not. So I knew it mattered who is in those rooms making those decisions and I'll give you just two examples from my career. Of how I know we can make a difference when we work on reforming systems from all sides and all ends. [15:09:54] So a few years after I graduated Howard and then got out of law school and joined the DA's office. It was during the height of the crack epidemic. [15:10:05] And as you may remember in Los Angeles and in California and other places there was there was a lot of gang crime and these legislatures were passing all these gang laws. These enhancements that meant that sentences would be harsher if somebody was affiliated with the gang. And so I'm sitting in my office one day and I could hear folks outside talking about how they plan and to try and figure out how to prove a case. [15:10:31] And they started talking about the way this young man was dressed. And they started talking about the neighborhood in which he was arrested. And they started talking about the music he was listening to. So I stepped out of my office. And I join their conversation and I said Hey guys. So you know this conversation you have. Well let me tell you. I have family members that dress that way. [15:11:02] I got people who live in that neighborhood and I'm about to date myself and I have a tape of that music in my car right now to show it. [15:11:19] Oh yeah. As one example. [15:11:28] Another example. And I have many but I'll share with you this too. Another example is later on when I was elected as district attorney and I'd be sitting in my office this happened so many times I'd be sitting in my office and my receptionist would come and knock on my door and say there's another one at the front window that wants to talk to you. [15:11:50] And what it would be is there would be a lady who would come to the front window and tell the front receptionist I want to talk to Carmela. [15:11:59] No I only want to talk to come. I want to talk to Carmela. Now I hadn't met her before. She said I want to come. [15:12:07] I go to the front window and there she would be a mother. Who had lost her son. And I would take her back in my office. And we would sit down on my couch and she would cry. I would hold her hands. And she would cry and tell me about how nobody was taking her grief seriously. She had lost her baby. Her adult son she had lost her baby. Tragic violence and they were treating that child and that violent incident like a statistic. [15:12:46] And why wasn't anyone tracking down the evidence and why wasn't anyone taking the case seriously and she knew full well that the case that happened on the other side of town they were dedicating all kinds of resources to. [15:13:00] Well why wasn't anyone taking her child's life and the loss of that life seriously. So these are just a couple of examples that I would offer to say it matters who is in the room. It matters that Ben Crump is their. With those that you represent and it matters who is in those other rooms as well making those decisions that have a profound impact on people's life and the dignity of their life. And it matters. I might add who makes the decisions are they somebody that worships with us in the same church in our neighborhood. Are they somebody whose children play with our children in the same little league. Are they somebody who lives in the same community we live in and their children go to the same schools that our children attend. [15:13:55] These things matter. And so when I went inside the system it was about fighting for the people. And there were some tough fights. [15:14:06] As I became attorney general we took on the five big banks in the United States during that foreclosure crisis that devastated homeowners in the United States of America and in particular black homeowners. [15:14:22] And those banks offered us. A couple billion dollars which sounded like a lot of money but then I said Well let me just understand who exactly has been impacted. And I realized they were offering us crumbs on the table. I would sit in rooms with the CEOs and the important people at the banks and they would talk to me about how Oh well don't talk to us about predatory lending practices. Those homeowners are trying to game the system. Those homeowners were cheap and I say no see. And then they would say well you're just trying to take money from our stockholders. I said you trying to take money from my stockholders the homeowners of America. And I'd say look. [15:15:10] You want to talk about people gaming the system so you're not clear about who these homeowners are. [15:15:14] And I would look at them I'll never forget this conversation I looked at this one phone. [15:15:18] I said Have you ever known somebody who was proud of their long. Because that's who we're talking about. [15:15:26] We're talking about families that understand that their hard work resulted in that homeownership which represented their dignity their life's savings and their assets. [15:15:36] And I will not stand in these rooms and have you deprive them of that dignity. [15:15:42] It was about being in the room to take on the pharmaceutical companies that were preying on seniors and selling them a bill of goods about what these medications could do and then charging them to the point that today one in four diabetes patients cannot afford their insulin. [15:16:00] It was about prosecuting transnational criminal organizations that were preying on women and children. Preying on women and children who for most part were vulnerable and needed support but were the perfect prey for predators. [15:16:15] And it was about demanding that we rethink what we're doing in the criminal justice system in a way that we reject the notion that there are only two choices about criminal justice policy one that suggests you're either soft on crime or you're tough on crime. [15:16:32] Instead of asking Are we smart on crime. Instead of asking look you can look at the public health model and it teaches us you want to deal with an epidemic. You want to deal with the harm. [15:16:47] Well the smartest most effective and cheapest way to deal with it is prevention first. If you're dealing with it in the emergency room of the prison system it is too late and it is too expensive. [15:17:01] And so we demanded that we be smart. [15:17:04] We demanded and I demanded of the Department of Justice of California which I ran. Which was the second and is the second largest department of justice in the United States. I was one of the first in the country to say that the special agents who work for that department must wear body cameras and keep them on. [15:17:28] We created the first in the nation. Requirement that there would be training for police officers on implicit racial bias and procedural justice because to deny it exists is to deny folks liberty. And in many cases life. It was about saying. THAT WE'RE GONNA START which we did one of the first reentry initiatives in the United States focused on young adults who had been picked up for selling drugs. Because for so many of them it was their only thought path toward economic health and well-being. And we put them in job training courses and parenting classes and skills development. [15:18:15] And when they graduated dismissed the charges against them. [15:18:18] And I'm a tell you. Well we created this back in 2005. Almost a decade and a half ago I tell you when we created this people would say to me What are you doing. You're a D.A. you're supposed to be locking people up not letting them out. People would say to me why are you giving them jobs. I need a job and I haven't committed a crime. And I would say because we have to be smart and we have to recognize that there are many levers that need to be pulled in a way that we bring justice to a community. [15:18:55] And in a way that we create public safety because it matters who's in the room. [15:19:02] And so at each juncture I definitely tried to live those words which is to take on these fights and see them through. [15:19:12] And I would say don't make a sci fi that right now today. We are at a moment in time. In the history of our country. That is requiring us to look in a mirror and ask a question. As individuals and as a community and that question is Who are we. And I would suggest that part of the answer to that question is we are better than this. [15:19:45] We are better than this. And so. [15:19:51] As I stand before you today as a serious and as they call it top tier candidate to be the next president of the United States. I will tell you. [15:20:07] That we have a fight in front of us and I think we all know the context but I'll lay a little bit of it out. We have a current occupant of the White House. [15:20:19] Who came into office on a campaign that was about Make America Great Again. [15:20:27] Which begs the question again for whom. A current occupant of the White House that I believe begs the question. Make America Great Again. [15:20:47] Again before the Civil Rights Act again before the Voting Rights Act again before the Fair Housing Act. Because we're not going back. We're not going back. [15:21:01] We're not going back. We are not going back. And we will see this through. [15:21:18] So we. [15:21:21] Eyes wide open have to turn the page and write the next chapter. And as this fraternity has always known we can not wait for somebody else to write the chapter for us. [15:21:35] We are the authors of that chapter. [15:21:40] We are the authors so I would also say I have shared with you a little bit about my background in terms of my career because at this moment in time I believe it is relevant to this topic. [15:21:55] I believe that not only is it important to turn the page but that in order to get there to write the next chapter we must successfully prosecute the case against another four years of Donald Trump in the White House. [15:22:12] As. And I would say there is quite a rap sheet on which we can base that prosecution. [15:22:25] So just take a look at this. He told working people he'd stick up for them. I've been it's been a lot of time as you can imagine in places like Iowa. I'm I tell you I'm meeting farmers who are looking at bankruptcy. Because of this so-called trade deal that is a trade policy by tweet they are looking at soybeans rotting in beans. You travel this country people are estimating that autoworkers because of this so-called trade policy as many as 700000 thousand may lose their jobs by Christmas. American families are right now because of this so-called trade policy that was born out of ego instead of what could be in somebodies brain. Now. [15:23:14] American families right now are looking at paying one point four billion dollars more a month in everything from shampoo to washing machines he told working people he'd stick up and stand up for them and then he passed a tax bill that benefits the top 1 percent and the biggest corporations in this country to the point that 60 of the biggest corporations in America last year paid no taxes who here paid no taxes last year. He told people he'd give everybody health care came in trying to get rid of anything that Barack Obama created. [15:23:55] Knowing full well by the way that the Affordable Care Act that they labeled Obamacare was one of the most effective and important public policy initiatives in lifetimes around giving people access to health care. He got defeated when the Congress said no you don't. [15:24:20] Remember John McCain the late great guy John McCain said no you don't. [15:25:31] So people give everybody health care came in trying to get rid of anything that Barack Obama created. Knowing full well by the way that the Affordable Care Act that they labeled Obamacare was one of the most effective and important public policy initiatives in lifetimes around giving people access to health care. [15:26:00] He got defeated when the Congress said no you don't. [15:26:05] Remember John McCain the late great guy John McCain said no you don't. [15:26:11] But yet he's still trying to revive it. Led by a bunch of attorneys general. Trying to revive an attack on the Affordable Care Act which if they succeed will mean bringing back pre-existing conditions as a barrier to folks getting access to health care. Bringing back a state of play where our children will not have access to our insurance plans up until the age of 26. Let's look at this rap sheet. Let's look at the facts that they've been putting babies in cages in the border and calling that border security. [15:26:49] Well what it is is a human rights abuse being committed by the United States government. [15:26:58] Let's look at the fact that under that department of justice they have tried to revive the war on drugs. They have stopped paying attention to consent decrees where courts are supposed to oversee reform of police departments that have been proven to have a history of discrimination. [15:27:18] And they are no longer for the most part conducting pattern and practice investigations which are supposed to be done when it is disclosed that there is discrimination and profiling in law enforcement. Let's look at the rap sheet. Let's look at the fact that we are facing a climate crisis. It represents an existential threat to who we are as human beings. [15:27:43] But yet instead of embracing science fact they're pushing science fiction to our collective peril and demise. And by the way. [15:27:55] Pay attention to what's happening in New Orleans this weekend. Pay attention to which communities will be devastated. [15:28:02] First and not have access to clean water and have their communities deteriorate because of this climate crisis. [15:28:11] Let's look at that rap sheet. Let's look at the rap sheet when he came in strong man. Right. Just swinging his power all around. Says he's going put America first. Says. [15:28:32] He's gonna put America first. I'm getting carried away. He's got an America First. [15:28:47] Which suggests that he would have our nation's security is his highest priority. But yet. On the fact. [15:28:57] On the fact I serve on the Senate Intelligence Committee I serve on the Senate Homeland Security Committee. In addition to Judiciary and Budget on the fact that Russia interfered in the election of the president of the United States. Which by the way. Which by the way was a campaign that was about misinformation targeted on targeted on America's Achilles heel which is race. And focused on black folks. [15:29:31] On the subject of Russia's interference in the election of the president of the United States. The current occupant of the White House takes the word and prefers the word of the Russian president over the word of the American intelligence community. [15:29:49] On the subject of an American student who was tortured and later died. He prefers to take the word of a North Korean dictator over the word of the American intelligence community. On the subject of a journalist who was assassinated. A journalist who had American credentials. [15:30:12] He prefers to take the word of a Saudi prince over the word of the American intelligence community. We need a new commander in chief. [15:30:42] So let's turn the page. Let's turn the page and write that next chapter. And part of what's going to be in that chapter. Is one thing that I will share with you that we just rolled out this week and it is based on a whole agenda that we've got and then I've got that I believe speaks to what should be the priority issues which are the issues that wake people up in the middle of the night. [15:31:10] You know wake them up. I call it the 3:00 a.m. agenda. [15:31:13] You know those things that wake you up at about 3:00 o'clock in the morning and got you sometimes in a cold sweat. And for the vast majority of us when we wake up at 3:00 in the morning thinking those that it usually has to do with one and just a very few things. Personal health the health of our children our parents or so many. Can I get a job keep a job. Pay the bills by the end of the month retire with dignity for our students can I pay off those student loans. So I call it the 3 a.m. agenda as part of the next chapter. And one of the specific plans that I announced as part of our 3 a.m. agenda. Is to specifically address the racial wealth gap in America. [15:32:05] Why. [15:32:07] Well because a typical black family in America has just ten dollars of wealth for every one hundred dollars held by other families. And of course there's a history to this. There's a historical background to this. And we have to remember history because you cannot write the next chapter without remembering the last. [15:32:33] So let's talk about the racial wealth gap and do just a quick history reminder. Well word to. [15:32:42] All those service men mostly men came back. Veterans and America had a plan to thank them and lift them up for their service and sacrifice. [15:32:55] And it was focused on knowing that to give them the dignity they deserved give them a pathway toward financial health and stability. And one of the best ways to do that is give them a path toward home ownership. Remember their. Right after World War Two. Well guess who was excluded from that. Black families. So one of the major and most robust. Investments in building the middle class and their well being. Was in so many places legally and systemically denied to black families. [15:33:40] Let's remember that. Let's remember the history of redlining. [15:33:48] Where folks and we all know the stories and have the stories of families who were working hard saving money. [15:33:57] And were excluded from access to home ownership which we know in this country is the main and major source of economic health and well-being for any family. Let's remember. [15:34:17] What happened I share with you my experience as attorney general dealing with this that crisis that occurred in twenty seventeen eighteen around the foreclosure crisis. [15:34:28] Where it was discovered through an investigation that banks had been robo signing foreclosures meaning not doing the due diligence to determine if those families should lose their homes. And this was after marketing strategies that were about protected to predatory lending practices. [15:34:52] That often targeted black families and Brown families and immigrant families. And so what was the consequence of all of that devastation in terms of the loss of home ownership even at that period of time. And again when we talk about intergenerational wealth. Home ownership. [15:35:15] Is one of the main vehicles through which we achieve that. It is on the basis of owning that home that we can say to our son our daughter. You want to start a small business. I'll give you a little startup money. [15:35:29] It is on the basis of that home ownership that we say Honey you want to go to Howard. [15:35:35] I'll give you some of that money toward your tuition so you don't have to get caught up in that student loan debt. [15:35:42] Intergenerational wealth is created by homeownership. So here's my plan. [15:35:48] And I'm a closed down my comments. Here's my plan. Which is to make sure that black families have a real shot at homeownership. I'm prepared to do three major things one to change the way that we assess credit scores. [15:36:08] Why. Let me tell you why. If you look closely at the system. [15:36:15] That is designed to measure your financial responsibility. [15:36:21] It is a system that has been designed with an assumption that you have wealth and assets. For example. You have credit cards. Well you have to have money to have a credit card. You don't they don't just give them out. You have to qualify. They look at things like Are you paying your mortgage on time. Right. And on the basis of your credit score score you are then eligible to borrow more to build up your business to to refinance whatever you want to do. [15:36:55] So the assumption is that you have to have something to get something. That's how the system works. So but it's supposed to be. [15:37:05] It pretends to be about measuring your financial responsibility. How responsible are you with your financial obligations. So here's what I'm prepared to do. Let's add to the way that your score will be marked. Do you pay a phone bill on time. [15:37:25] Do you pay your rent on time. Do you pay the utility bills on time. [15:37:33] Which is equal measure of Are you financially responsible. Let's broaden the field of those who can qualify. Based on an accurate measure of Are you financially responsible second. [15:37:48] We need to have stronger anti-discrimination lending laws and require enforcement which means for those who are still engaged in the process an act of discriminating against people based on the zip code in which you live. The neighborhood in which you live. [15:38:08] There are laws on the books. That are supposed to prevent that but they need to be enforced. Third and that's the federal government that's all about federal laws around housing. And then third. I'm prepared to invest 100 billion dollars which will lift up 4 million families who. Live in red lined communities or federally subsidized housing. [15:38:40] To allow them the ability. [15:38:43] To put down down payments. Or closing cost for home ownership. [15:38:50] This will lift up four million families in the United States. [15:38:53] And by taking these steps we can shrink the wealth gap in the United States between black households and others by at least one third. So I'm a close my comments by saying. [15:39:08] We have it in our power as we all know because this is a large room full of leaders. We have it always in our power that way when we are in those rooms to make it matter. [15:39:24] To make a difference and to push things forward and to see it through. [15:39:31] And when I think about the future and I think about our babies and I think about all. [15:39:39] Whose shoulders we stand on. But also with an understanding that we must lift up. [15:39:45] Those who come behind us you know my mother she raised us she would say to me many times calmly you may be the first to do many things but make sure you're not the last. So when I think about. [15:40:01] Eyes front head high to the finish and we must see it through I also think about it this way. Years from now. [15:40:09] Our children our grandchildren and others they will look in our eyes. Each one of us and they will ask us. Where were you. At that inflection moment. And what we will be able to tell them. Is more than just how we felt at this moment in time. What the brothers of Omega sci fi will be able to talk about is what we did what action we took and the leadership we showed. [15:40:44] I thank you very much. [15:41:03] Brothers and sisters didn't she do a great job.

FTG OF TYLER CLEMENTI SUICIDE COURT CASE OPENING STATEMENTS / EXT BROLL LAWYERS AND RAVI DEPARTURES Court done for today, will resume Monday 2/26 at 9AM. Here's a very rough log of the trial. 09:31:47 Good morning members of the jury on Aug. 6th, 2010, first year incoming students at Rutgers univ. were given their roommate assignments and alerted to the emails of the person that would be their roommate. Tyler and Dahrun Ravi were assigned to be roommates in Room 30 Davison C. They received that information and each other's email addresses so they could contact each other before they arrived on campus. Some students might try to do some research on their roommate. Maybe to see if they're on any social networking sites such as Facebook. Dahrun Ravi did that with his roommate Tyler. What he found by doing that research about Tyler was troubling to him because he found out Tyler was probably homosexual. The defendant was none too happy about that. 09:33:16 He discussed his displeasure with his friends before he arrived at Rutgers and he continued to discuss it with friends and then people that he met at Rutgers. Some of those people would eventually be the dorm mates. On Aug. 28, 2010 was the move-in date so that was the first day that Tyler and Dahrun actually met each other. They began to live in Davison C. There are two key dates in this case. Those 2 key dates are Sept. 19th and Sept. 21st which was a Tuesday. Those events on the 19th give rise to the 2 counts of invasion of privacy against the defendant. 09:34:38 That privacy that they expected that they had a reasonable expectation to have. That invasion encompassed viewing private sexual activity in that room. On Tues. Sept. 21st there was an attempt at invading that privacy again. The state's allegations are those counts of invasion of privacy on the 19th and the attempt on the 21st were motivated by the fact that Tyler and his guest were both homosexual. The proof in this case not only come from the witness but evidence. 09:35:06 Some of that evidence will come from the defendant's side and the defendant's computer. Some of that evidence will come from Tyler's cell phone and computer. You will see and hear evidence from other students cell phones and computers. You'll hear evidence from administrator's from Rutgers Univ. Now there's really 3 chapters I suggest to you in this case and chapter 1 started on Sunday night. Tyler asked his roommate Dahrun if he could have the room for some private time until midnight. The defendant said sure and he left the room. And when he left the room he went across the hallway to af friend's from that happened to be a friend he knew from high school. When he went across to the friend's room he asked to use her computer and while in that room with her he went on her computer and he accessed the webcam in his computer. That webcam had been set up to have an automatic accept feature on the iCHat application. He went into that iChat and he and his friend from across the hall viewed live images of Tyler and his male guest engaging in sexual activity in that room, kissing with their shirts off. 09:37:18 After they viewed that the defendant then went on to encourage other people in the dorm to come and view that also. Even that though was not enough for the defendant. Within minutes of viewing those live video images he didn't say "I'm shocked." I realize I invaded privacy. That's not what he said. What he did was he sent out a message via his Twitter account and his Twitter account was public so it would post message to followers. He had followers at Rutgers and places outside. And that first Twitter message, that public announcement, Roommate asked for room til midnight. I went into Mollys room and turned on my webcam. I saw my roommate making out with a dude, yay. That message went out to followers. 09:39:26 Again, even that wasn't good enough. He went into the lounge and invited and encouraged other people to come back and view what was on that webcam. Ladies and gentlemen I suggest to you that it was like opening the blinds in that room. He opened the blinds, he viewed what was going on in those blinds. He left the blinds open and he invited and encouraged other people to look. There was more to come. Chapter 2. Tuesday, Sept. 21st in the evening hours Tyler texts his roommate and asked him if he could use the room again. Defendant could have said no. He text back and says "no problem." But that was a lie and it was a trap. Because within about an hour of sending that text message back to Tyler, he sent out another Tweet, another public announcement. This time it was more than an announcement. It was an invitation. That message said "Anyone with iChat, I dare you to video chat me between 9:30 and 12. Yes it's happening again." 09:41:05 I submit to you ladies and gentlemen that was a public announcement and a public invitation. Not only an invitation did it talk about what happened 2 nights before. It added a challenge, I dare you to videochat me. Again, that wasn't good enough for the defendant because after that he went on separate occasions into rooms of other friends that he had made. One of the friends he accessed through that friend's computer, his webcam, to make sure it was working and it was angled toward Tyler's bed. About an hour later, he went into another friend's room, accessed his webcam through her computer to make sure that webcam was working, set up, and angled toward Tyler's bed. 09:42:46 At some point defendant's bravado leads to his downfall because the Twitter messages come to the attention of Tyler. Tyler finds out what happened on the 19th and wahts happened for the 21st. He goes to see one of the RAs and he tells them about these incidents and reports it and says he wants a room change. Not only does Tyler make that report to the RA, but then he goes back to the room on Tuesday the 21st before his guest arrives, the same guest. And he shuts down the defendant's computer system. That's why those charges are an attempt to invade privacy. 09:43:59 Now the RA at some point the next day tells Dahrun about Tyler's report to him so the defendant now knows that Tyler knows. I suggest to you that at that point he begins to be worried that what he has done is going to be exposed. He begins to think about how to cover up the tracks that have already been laid. Now remember that Aug 28th was the move in date. That was the first day Dahrun and Tyler even met each other. Its only 3 weeks that they have lived together as roommates at Rutgers. During that time, the defendant has exposed not only Tyler's sexual orientation but he has exposed his private sexual activity or attempted to. 09:45:20 He's seeking to brand Tyler as different from everybody else. He is branding Tyler as gay to set him up for contempt and ridicule. Defendant's acts were not a prank, not an accident, not a mistake. They certainly were not good natured. These acts were purposeful, intentional, and they were planned. I would suggest that beyond that they were mean spirited, malicious, and they were criminal. Those acts were meant to cross one of the most sacred boundaries of human privacy. Engaging in private consensual sexual activity with another human. In addition to those acts, you have defendant's words. Words that were very deliberate. 09:46:50 I suggest that either those acts alone, those words alone, those acts and words together show a deliberate and purposeful and calculated plan on this defendant's part to invade the privacy of Tyler and his guest. Now we come to chapter 3. 09:47:26 On the eve of Wed. Sept. 22nd a police officer comes to Room 30 looking for Tyler. Dahrun is there. In conversations, Dahrun tells the police officer about Tyler having a guest over on the 19th. But curiously he doesn't tell him about the guest on Tuesday. After the police officer leaves, I suggest the defendant now knows from the RA because Tyler has reported it but also because the police were there, that his acts might be something he needs to be concerned about. You'll hear evidence that he deletes those Twitter messages that had been posted. The one from the 19th and then the one from Tuesday the 21st. He deletes those messages and then just for good measure. He replaces them with what I'll call fake Tweets. He creates Tweets and the first one that he creates is calculated to be very close to that Tweet of that night of Sept. 21st. He changes it from anyone with iChat I dare you to chat me TO Roommate asked for room again. It's happening again. Anyone with iChat, don't you dare video chat me from 9:30-12. 09:50:02 Just enough that they missed the don't. Not only does he send out that fake tweet he puts another one on. This one says everyone ignore that last Tweet. Stupid drafts. 09:50:30 You'll also hear that on Sept. 23rd the friend from across the hall, he finds out that the Rutgers police are interviewing that friend. And he calls her and when he calls her she says I'm with the police and I can't talk to you. Immediately the defendant starts to send her texts. Those text messages you'll hear, contain two types of information. One is information that he's hoping the friend will tell police. That this was an accident, a mistake. Give them false info. He starts tot talk about the 21st. And he starts to feed information so it will be conveyed to the police. 09:52:01 Defendant is in the custody with Rutgers Univ police. He gives a statement that I will suggest in that statement there's again false information being given to the law enforcement officers. Based on legal paperwork, eh gives his cell phone over to the police and that cell phone doesn't have those text messages that earlier that same night he had been texting to his friend. They have been deleted from his cell phone. MISSING END OF PROSECUTORS OPENING STATEMENT, BEGINNING OF DEFENSE OPENING STATEMENT 10:31 DEFENSE OPENING STATEMENT: 18 year old boy who just graduated high school. What do you think his reaction is going to be? Aw, nuts. Is that something you would expect an 18 year old boy to talk about with his friends? Would it be so unusual unreasonable? And not once in all of those conversations does Donald say one thing that's hateful. What's happening is those friends are reacting just as you think they'd react. They start teasing him and busting him. The room is a hateful, anti-gay, bigoted young boy. So you got to keep things in perspective. You got to see what this is all about. If that was true, you would expect to see continued behavior, continued conversation by Dahrun evidencing this hate this distaste against his roommate and there wasn't any. If you went to college you know the first day you're away from home, your parents are there moving you in. This is your room, where you're going to live for that year. 10:33 This room because it's Dahrun room, it's Dahrun's room. It's where he lives, it's where he goes. It's where his clothes are. It's where his underwear is. Where his private belongings are. It's his room that both boys have to share. There's 80 students in the dormitory, 40 in one wing, 40 in another, and a lounge separating the wings. It has a ping pong table, comfortable chairs, and a big TV where the students can hang out. Down each hallway, you go into a room. Cinderblock, army barracks type rooms. 10:34 If you lay in your bed you can almost lean over and touch the other bed. You get a bed, a desk, you can take the desk and put it against the wall, you have a dresser you can move wherever. And you get a closet, a closet that you can't move around. There might be two outlets in each room for you to use. One under your bed and another one. Not a very big room and this is the room that you get to live in. 10:34 It's Tyler's room, it's Dahrun's room. These are co-ed also. There's rooms for the girls and rooms for the boys. 10:36 When he saw his roommate he went on a mission to make his life miserable. That's what you would think, but it never happened. They did not become friends, they did not become buddies. Two different parts of New Jersey, two different sets of interests, Dahrun lettered in track, played ultimate Frisbee, it's a big thing now. He breakdanced, very very social, had a lot of friends, was a technological genius. He could do things with computers at 18 at 17 that we couldn't even imagine to do. You'll hear in high school Dahrun went to see Iron Man and Dahrun had the technological skills to create a program that he called Jarvis and gave a British accent to. This program could tell him when to go to class, what the bus schedule is, when he should go to dinner. He created a GPS on the program so it would go on if someone went near his bed. It did all sorts of neat things. And on it was an auto-accept feature on a video cam. If somebody calls you on a phone, you have to pick it up. The auto-accept feature meant as soon as you video chat, the screen went on and you would see his room. And if he was there he would see you. 10:39 He was an 18 year old boy and he could do it. He did it long before he went to college it had nothing to do with this roommate. His roommate came from Ridgewood, a nice young man, an accomplished violinist. He played in the band at Rutgers, he was very very good, very shy, very quiet, the exact opposite of Dahrun. Dahrun was going to take advantage of college, go out and meet girls. 10:39 There was nothing that causes you to believe Dahrun is a bad person. Nothing, zero. And I'm not going to break things up in chapters but it's just not what the prosecutor tells you. Not what the prosecutor tells you. Nobody ever video chatted, viewed, looked at anything in order to see anybody engaged in any sexual activity. The truth is and you'll see it nobody ever broadcasted anything, nobody transmitted anything, nobody recorded anything, nobody reproduced any image of anything. Nothing, zero. 10:41 What I want to do and I could respond to Ms. McClure and give you my commentary, my closing, my interpretation, my spin on what occurred. That's not what I'm going to do. I'm going to ask every one of you as you listen to the testimony, almost close your eyes and you project back like you're reviewing in your mind, the movie that you saw, or the book that you read as to what the lives of Dahrun and Tyler were like, as different as they were. Because you have to make decisions. I can't tell you that Dahrun didn't act like a boy, immature, or childish. He's 18. You have to decide what he did was criminal. So I'm going to bring out now a lot of statements and questions that I want you hopefully to consider as you search for the truth of why, it's not so important what happened, it's why. We all do things in our lives and make mistakes why. Just because we do something stupid and make mistakes, esp. when we're young doesn't mean we're hateful and we're bigoted or we're a criminal. 10:43 In fact Dahrun never intimidated anybody. He never committed a crime; he never committed a hateful crime. You'll see in the evidence he's not homophobic or anti-gay. He never broadcasted, transmitted his roommate. He never harassed his roommate. He never ever spoke negatively about his roommate. He thought he was a nice guy, he had no problem with him. He never bullied. 10:44 There was no bullying, no bullying, no cyber bullying, no bullying by way of a computer or a Twitter or a Tweet. He's not a bigot. He never ever did anything to suggest to you that he targeted his roommate for any reason. 10:44 Now stop for a moment. There's 3 parties to this story. Three people involved. In Dahrun and Tyler's life back then, you heard about Tyler you heard of Dahrun. There's been no mention of MB, the third person. MB was not a student at Rutgers University. He didn't belong on Rutgers University. Everybody in that dorm, 18 maybe 19, it's a freshmen dorm. Remember they're 3 weeks into their freshmen year. All of a sudden visiting the dorm, is a 30 year old man. Various people describe this person who clearly doesn't belong, a scruffy, shady looking, old, homeless looking, creepy older dude, 25-26, slightly overweight, beard, goatee. Who is he? What's he doing there? Does he belong there? 10:46 Is there a curiosity for who he is and why he's there? 18-year-old dorm. 18-year-old. Dahrun doesn't know who this person is. He saw him once. On Sept. 19th, and Dahrun is walking out of his room, he had ultimate Frisbee practice. He came back, Sept. 19th. He wants to take a shower. His roommate said can I have a buddy over? There's no discussion about sexuality or what's going to happen in the room. Dahrun is walking out of his dorm room with a towel draped over his shoulder and a shower caddy and a change of clothes. This scruffy, shady, homeless looking man walks into his room. He's not introduced and he's told, don't come back for awhile. 10:47 So who is MB? You'll learn. You'll learn how he met Dahrun's roommate, why he was there on the 19th; you'll learn what he knew and what he didn't know. There's a whole lot more to this. Certainly Dahrun never intended, wanted to harass, intimidate, for this person who he didn't know. Who he still doesn't know. 10:48 There was viewings on Sept. 19th. That viewing lasted 2-5 seconds. What was observed by Dahrun, who purportedly wanted to see some sexual relation take place, was the back of two people from the corner of the room, embracing. Looked like they were kissing. That was it. Nothing more. You'd think the whole purpose was to watch someone engage in sexual intimacy, you would have had to watch a little longer. That's the extent of everything Dahrun saw. And on the 21st, what all Ms. McClure told you, what's interesting, what you'll learn, but nobody saw anything. Nothing was recorded, nothing was transmitted and that night Dahrun Ravi left his room to go to ultimate Frisbee practice. He came back at 11 o'clock. He asked his roommate, can he come back and he never got a response. So Dahrun can't go into his own room so he goes into a friend's room and he doesn't get on his computer to see what's going on. 10:50 Because he never wanted to see anything and he made sure, and you'll hear, why nobody would see anything. It's all a little different than what's being projected. 10:51 In conclusion, please keep in mind its Dahrun Ravi's room. And you're not going to be in a position to fully understand what was going on back there unless you remember 18yo boy. And again I'm going to say it. Not hateful, not a bigot, at 18 he didn't have enough experience in life. He was 18. When we get done here, you're going to see. Might be stupid at times but he's an 18 yo boy and he's certainly not a criminal. 10:53 First Witness Mr. Austin Chung, please come up sir. Mr. Chung, good morning. Mr. Chung, unless you prefer to affirm can you please place your left hand on the Bible? 10:53 Tell the members of the jury where you went to high school? Plainsboro 10:54 So you graduated in 2010? Do you know Dahrun Ravi? Yes. We were high school friends. I think there were around 400 people. Did you know Molly Way? Yes. How did you know her? She was my girlfriend in high school and now. Did she attend Plainsboro? Yes. And Mr. Ravi also? Yes. During the course of the summer did you learn where Mr. Ravi was going to be attending college? Yes, Rutgers. In New Brunswick? Yes, Molly also Rutgers. You didn't attend Rutgers did you? No I go to Stevens in Hoboken. 10:55 My school started in the end of August 2010. After you went to college did you talk with Molly Way? Yeah I talked to her daily I'd say. Were you in a relationship then with her? It was on and off but I think yes. How did you communicate with her? Through AIM or by phone. Either text or by calling her. So you'd actually speak to her? Yeah. Tell us what AIM is? AOL Instant Messaging so basically we can type to each other and communicate by talking. 10:56 Can you only do that by computer? There are apps so you can do it by phone too. How would you normally communicate with Molly? Through using my computer. How do you connect, is there a number? We both have names, my name was AJChung006. Is that similar to having a phone number? Yes. What about Mr. Ravi, did you communicate with him? Not as much but I think we spoke like how are you doing, how's school. How did you communicate? Also by AIM or phone. 10:57 What was his screen name? Dahrun had more than one but I think it was MassInflux, I don't know. I think he had 2. Now, after you went to Stevens did you become aware that Molly Way and Dahrun Ravi went to Rutgers? Yes, both in the dorms. How did you find out where they lived? If we talked, and we asked how school is going I'm guessing they'd say oh I'm on Bush Campus. Did you visit? There was a weekend that I went down to visit people at Rutgers. It was a long weekend in Sept. I think Labor Day. Did you come to Rutgers by yourself? I can with Jason Tam, a mutual friend. 10:59 While you were at Rutgers did you see Molly? I saw her at her dorm. The name of the dorm? Don't remember the name but yes. Did you see Dahrun? Yes. I think so. Do you recall where he lived? The same dorm. Did you see them both in the dorm? Yes. How close did they live? Across the hall. 11:00:01 I'm going to call your attention to Sun. Sept. 19th. Where were you? Not exactly. I was at school. I'm going to call your attention to approx. 9 o'clock in the evening hours, do you remember where you were? I think I was in my room or the library. If you were in the room or the library would you have your cell with you? Yes and a computer. What kind of computer did you have? Our school gives out laptop to all the students so it's an HP elite book. Did you carry it with you? Yes to all my classes and library. 11:00:57 So do you remember approx 9 o'clock on the evening on sept. 19th having communication with either Molly or Dahrun? Yes. How do you remember that? I was at a meeting so my computer automatically opens up AIM so I guess we just started chatting like that. Can you explain that? If I turn on my computer AIM will automatically start. Is there something that gives you an indication of why it's starting? If I get a message then a window pops up. What does that mean to you when that window pops up? That I'm getting a new message and I can reply or close it. Do you know who you're getting that message from? Yes. Do you remember getting a message? Yes it was from Molly. Does it come up as her screen name? Her screen name. 11:02:35 I talk back to her. Did you begin to communicate? Yeah. Can you tell the jury what form that takes? I'm using my keyboard to type messages to her. Is it like texting? Yeah but faster. During the course of that communication was there any indication that there was anyone else involved? During the AIM chat, Dahrun stopped in and talked. During this communication through AIM what are you talking about? I guess they just saw Tyler kissing his boyfriend or friend. When you say Tyler who are you referring? Dahrun's roommate. How did you know Tyler? That one time I stopped by I think there was one time Dahrun was sleeping and Tyler opened and I was like Oh is Dahrun there and then we introduced ourselves. So you knew Tyler to be Dahrun's roommate? Is that the only occasion you met him? Yes. 11:04:30 Indication that this was about Tyler? Yeah I think so. What did you understand when this chat took place? Basically they were just overwhelmed seeing what they say. They were telling me about it. I'll ask you to look at S-25. 11:05:46 Look at this item, S-25. Look and see if it looks familiar. Yes it does. What is it? It's a screen shot of our chat. What's at the top? It says AIM IM with AJChung006. Sept. 19th, 2010. Did you read it over? Yes. Is that the way you remember the AIM chat? Judge may I put it up on the overheard? 11:07:18 SHOWING SCREEN SHOT ON OVERHEAD 11:07:32 Can you tell us about which side is your part? I'm the purple. The left side. On the right side, what's that? That's a picture of Molly. It's her screen name so it's her picture. Can you read for us what it says? 11:08:12 I say "sup." She says, "Oh my fucking god Austin, Dahrun's in my room, we got to tell you the craziest thing that just happened. He's going to tell you." I say "Just type it, I'm at my meeting." He says "It's Dahrun, okay so my roommate asked for the room until midnight and I was like what the fuck but I was like whatever and said okay and I left. I went into Molly's room and I saw him making out with some dude. And I saw .eww what the fuck. 11:09:20 So the part where it comes to its Dahrun okay. That was Dahrun talking to me. Did you have more communication after this point? I think Molly came back and we talked. So this is the extent of the conversation with Mr. Ravi? Yes. At the time, can you tell us what the top says? 9:20 p.m. At the time in Sept. 2010 did you have a Twitter account? No. At some point after this communication on Sept. 19th did you hear again from Molly Way? Yes. 11:10:48 Do you remember Thurs, Sept. 23, do you recall? Yes. Through text message. Do you recall what time that was? I think the afternoon. What was the communication via text about? Molly was getting picked up by the cops but the cops were in an undercover cop car so she wasn't sure if it was the real cops but if she didn't call me by 10 pm I should call the cops. I was pretty nervous so I tried to figure out what was going on. How? I tried calling her multiple times but she didn't pick up. I called Dahrun or texted him. Do you remember? I think it was both. What was your purpose for contacting Dahrun? I just wanted to see if he knew what was going on and if Molly was okay. Was there a reason you contacted him? I think that day Molly told me Tyler was missing. When you contacted Dahrun what'd you tell him? He said he'd find out about Molly. 11:13:10 LOOKS AT S-28 AND S-29. 11:13:59 It's a picture of my contact in a Blackberry and my name and phone number. 11:14:15 S-29. It's a text message with me and Dahrun I'm assuming. Is there some way of dating and time? Sept. 23, 2010, 5:17pm. That's on that screen? Yes. 11:15:00 PUTTING SCREEN SHOTS ON OVERHEAD 11:15:29 What's on the top? My name. What does that indicate? That it's a text with me. There's a green box, what is that? That's Dahrun. She's fine I talked to her, she's being questioned about some stuff, I'll explain later. What does your response say? Kk thanks man, I was just freaking out, you doing okay? That was after you tried to contact Ms. Way? Yes. 11:16:30 Do you have video chat capacity on your laptop? Yes. Have you ever used iChat? iChat is for Macs so since I have HP I don't have that but I can chat via other things. Have you ever done it with anyone outside of Stevens? Yes. 11:17:10 Mr. Chung you said you think it's Labor Day you went to visit Rutgers? Yes. That you actually met Tyler? Yes. Had you ever had any discussion with Mr. Ravi before meeting Tyler about Tyler? Yes. When? During the summer. What was that communication about? Basically asking about do you know your roommate how is he stuff like that. He found out Tyler was gay so he told me. Do you recall how he found that out? I think he Googled him or Facebooked. Through those means he found out? Yes. I think he told me through AIM. 11:18:26 That was before you left for college and before he left? Yes, yes. Did he say anything else about knowing about Tyler being gay? No, it was just a casual conversation. Did he say he knew Tyler was gay or thought? I'm assuming if you find stuff on the internet. There was no way for sure that Dahrun knew. That was his belief? Yes. 11:19:16 DEFENSE WANTS TO QUESTION AUSTIN CHUNG. SIDE BAR. 11:20:23 SHOT OF DAHRUN RAVI LISTENING TO HEADPHONES 11:34:21 You told us you were boyfriend and girlfriend with Molly and on and off? Yeah. When you were in high school you said you were friends with Dahrun too? Yeah. We played Frisbee together. It's basically a sports team but it's a club sport. So you traveled from location to location? Yeah. There were times you were alone with Dahrun? Yes. Other than ultimate Frisbee did you hang out? Yeah. We would see each other and eat at lunch. Do you know if Dahrun was involved in other activities? He did track throughout high school too. Sorry I'm blanking. Sorry. I just can't think of any. The prosecutor asked you if Dahrun was in court, is that him? Yeah. In high school, you graduated the same time correct? Yeah. Did you have a computer? Yes. Did you talk with Dahrun about computers? No. I'm not that good with computers. Was he smart in high school? Dahrun could do a lot of things with computers. A lot of things that I can't do. And other people can't do. Did you ever hear of a computer called Jarvis? I think I've heard about it yes. I think it's basically like from Iron Man. He could tell the computer to do something and it would do it. 11:37:41 I never Tweeted or followed anyone. When did you graduate? June 2010. Started at Stevens end of August. Did you hang out with Dahrun during the summer? Yeah there were graduation parties during the summer so yeah we hung out. Did you ever have any conversations with Dahrun about his roommate and you told us yes. You room in Stevens in Hoboken. Did you have a roommate? Yes. Did you know who it was? Not until Stevens told me. How did they tell you? They sent out an e-mail saying you're in room, dorm, with name. Did you research yourself? Yes. How did you learn about that roommate? I just tried to find him on Facebook and I e-mailed him too. Did you first find him on facebook? Yes I think so. Is that normal for most students to learn about their roommates through Facebook? Yes you want to get to know them. My roommate had just made a Facebook so it was pretty new so I couldn't really tell anything by him. Would there have been an alternative if there was no facebook? Besides e-mailing him? You can always Google someone. That's not unusual is it? No. 11:40:14 When Dahrun told you he thought his roommate was gay did he make any comments? I probably asked him how do you feel about that. It's a conflict of interest if his roommate is gay and Dahrun isn't. And you think you probably asked him that? Yes. Did Dahrun say anything that caused you to believe Dahrun was upset that his roommate was gay? Not really. Prior to this conversation with Dahrun did you ever in the years you knew Dahrun, ever hear Dahrun say anything negative about people who might have been gay? No. Did you hear other people in the school that they thought Dahrun had a problem with gays? No. 11:41:37 You told us you came to Rutgers with Jason Tam, whose that? A friend of mine and Dahrun's. He goes to Cooper Union in the city. The two of you came together? Yes. Other than Molly and Dahrun were there other high school graduates from Plainsburough that were going to Rutgers? Yeah definitely there are a lot. So when you came there it was to hang out with your high school buddies? Yes. I know you told us you went to Dahrun's room and Tyler answered. Yes. Did you have any conversation with Tyler? It was just introduction. Did Dahrun wake up? Not when I was there but I saw him after. You were with Jason probably, and Molly? Yeah probably. If you can, what other high school friends of yours would have spent time with you that weekend? Our main friend is like Scott. He's just pretty much our best friend. Scott Xu. He goes to Rutgers? Yes. He played Ultimate Frisbee with me and Dahrun. 11:43:55 So other than Scott, Dahrun, Molly and Jason were there even more kids you would have hung out with that weekend? Um yeah, people lived in their dorms. That weekend, was there any discussion about Tyler? I don't think so. Did you hear anything from any of your other friends about something that Dahrun had told them about Tyler? No. After that weekend was over, did you continue for the next few weeks speak to Dahrun? Yeah. Did he ever say anything about any displeasure or problems with Tyler? No he said Tyler is a nice guy. 11:45:08 Some time in September he told me Tyler is a nice guy. On Sept. 19th, that's the day you had this instant message, if you remember, had you spoken to Molly or Dahrun earlier that day? I'm sure I talked to Molly earlier that day, I don't know if I talked to Dahrun. Did Molly say anything to you about Tyler and what Dahrun wanted to do? No. When you received that message from Molly were you surprised that you received it? You said you were in class at the time? A meeting. Let's put that message on the screen. 11:47:32 It says, 9:19, 9:20 pm. This conversation that you had with Molly and Dahrun, did it end on this page or did it continue? No it continued. This is all you spoke to Dahrun about? Yes. How long do you estimate you continued to chat with Molly? Probably until I went to bed. Talked about a lot of things during that time? Probably. Was part of the conversation what Molly had seen? I'm sure there was stuff about it. It starts off by the little yellow guy saying sup, does that mean anything? It's like what's up. 11:48:20 READING INSTANT MESSAGE AGAIN 11:49:02 At that point you didn't know what was going on? Yes. You go, I'm at a meeting correct? Yes. That's when Dahrun tells you it's Dahrun okay. 11:49:39 "And I was like WTF but whatever I said okay and I left and I went into Molly's room and I turned on my webcam from there and I saw him making out with some dude." True? Yes. I was probably just in shock. 11:50:45 What would you have been shocked about? After . you go ew, what does that mean? It means ew, like something that you don't like. 11:51:19 At that point was your conversation with Dahrun over? Yes. After Sept. 19th, obviously Sept. 20th, did you communicate Dahrun to further discuss what you saw? No. Sept. 21st did you communicate to further discuss what he saw? No. Did you make any attempts to get in touch with Molly about what Dahrun had told you? I don't think so. 11:52:05 Was the next time you talked to Dahrun, Sept. 23rd? Yes. What occurred was Molly text you saying she was being picked up by cops in an undercover car? She was very scared because she didn't know if they were the real cops. She told you if you don't hear from her by 10 pm you should call the cops? Yes. And you told us that you were concerned? Yeah. You don't know what to do so you called Dahrun and you told him about your concerns? Yes. 11:53:25 He did learn where she was correct and he got back to you? Yes. And you were happy he got back to you? Yes. Before coming in here today you spoke to me correct? Yes. Did you speak to anybody from the prosecutor's office? Twice. Any detectives? Well investigators. You were first questioned by the police back in Oct. 2010? Yes. Detective Sean Scaller? Well there was two but Frank was there too. Did they take a statement from you? Audio, taped? Yes. Did they talk to you? They talked to me with my dad. I was still 17 so my dad wanted to be there. They first spoke to you with your father present in Oct. 2010? They talked to you alone? Yes. The first time with your dad there did they take notes?

I was a freshmen last year. Lived in Davidson Hall C. Which room? 21. 14;08;40 Look at this diagram. 14;08;49 Does that diagram look like Davidson C? Yes. Which side of Davidson C did you live on? I lived on the left hand side. Could you get up and put an X where you lived? 14;09;32 Before you got to Rutgers did you get your room assignment from the university? Yes. I had a random roommate assignment. I just requested I live on Bush and they gave me Davidson Hall C. Do you remember moving in to Davidson C? Yes. What day? Not quite sure the day. August 28. 14;10;09 When you moved in did either Davidson C or Rutgers have activities for first year students? Yes, convocation. We met the dean. When was that? A day after I moved in. What happens? All the freshmen or first year students come to Rutgers and meet the dean and the glee club sings. Where? The stadium. 14;10;54 Did you meet Dahrun Ravi? Yes. Where? I believe it was before convocation right outside Davidson Hall. We would all go to the stadium and walk to the stadium. Had you seen him before at the residence hall? Yes. 14;11;40 Did you maintain a friendship with him? Yes. What did you do? Hang out. We only saw each other once a day. In the lounge talking as friends. 14;12;05 Look at S-13. Does that look familiar? Yes. It is the lounge of Davidson C. When you would hang out was there anything particular you would do? I played pool. Is there a pool table in that picture? Yes. Did you have occasion to meet Molly Wei? Yes. When? I met Molly through Dahrun, not sure what day, but later on in September. Wasn't toward the beginning when everyone was meeting each other. 14;12;05 Through Dahrun, what does that mean? Dahrun knew Molly and when I was hanging ou with him I was hanging out with her. Were they in the same wing as you? They were the opposite side. Can you describe your friendship with Molly? I would describe it as acquaintances. Awkward acquaintances. I only talked to her cause I was friends with Dahrun. 14;13;57 When did you meet Tyler Clementi? I don't remember when but I was in Dahrun's room, talking to him about something on his computer. Tyler was just sitting on his side of the room with headphones in his ears. I didn't get to know him per say I just saw him and knew who he was cause he was Dahrun's roommate. 14;14;37 Do you know when that was after you moved in? A week or two. 14;14;49 Sept. 19th. Were you on campus? Yes. Where were you at 9 o'clock? Davidson Hall. I think. 14;15;16 Around that time period, would you have anything else to do on a Sunday night? No, it'd be logical to be at the dorm. Do you recall seeing Dahrun? Yes. Where? In the lobby in front of a vending machine. When you say lobby, on that diagram there.? I mean lounge. 14;15;57 When you saw Dahrun what was going on? On that day, he came up to me saying that he had a secret to say to me. He was kind of, not bugging out, more like distraught maybe. He said that Tyler my roommate had just invited a guy over and asked for the room to be his that night. I didn't really know Tyler but I was going on with oh wow that's crazy and scandalous. I think he described the guy who was invited as someone older so that was the more scandalous part. So that's what we discussed when we saw each other. 14;17;05 Anything else? He invited me over to Molly's room to talk about it more. I went over to Molly's room to talk about it more. Was it just you and Dahrun? Yes. While you were having that conversation in the lounge was anyone else? No one on one. 14;17;35 Had you been to Molly's room before that? No that's why it was awkward. What time? Around 9. When you got back to her room who was there? It was just Molly and Dahrun, just us three. 14;18;08 They were talking about a webcam in his room and was streaming a video. He explained the process to me, I don't remember but they were describing it to me and whether or not I wanted to see it or not. They had already seen so it they wanted me to see it. I didn't necessarily want to. After that, I kind of just left. 14;18;53 What was Dahrun describing to you? So Dahrun was explaining to me that they had not seen Tyler and the other person fornicate. They saw each other make out with their shirts off. It hadn't gone far enough to see anything else. It was for a brief moment and then they'd turn it off so they'd know what was going on, in his room. Did you stay or leave? 12:20;02 I didn't want to stay with Molly so when he was about to take a shower, I left. My friend Kevin's room. Did you stay in Kevin's room? I think other people wanted to go watch the video so I walked in to the room but I didn't want to watch it so then after I walked in I met with other friends in that hall. 14;20;50 The room, do you mean Molly's room? Yes. Who were those people? Cassie, Puja, Broshne, and everything else is a blur. Did they go back to the room with you? No I was following them cause they wanted to go to the room. We'll talk about it while we're talking and then I'll leave. 14;21;25 So did the four or five of you go back to Molly's room? Yeah. We went to my side of the wing to the other side of the wing. What happened when you got to Molly's room? They were talking with the door open and then they wanted to see it so then I was like ok I'm going to leave now. They stayed. 14;21;55 I went to hang out with my friend. Where? Either I went back to my side of the wing or Vishal was already on that side of the wing so I met up with him. 14;22;18 Did you see Dahrun that night? No. Did you see Tyler that night? No. Do you have a Twitter account? Yes. Did you in Sept. 2010. Yes. Did you ever follow Twitter messages from Dahrun? No. Mine is inactive. I didn't get it so I never used it. 14;22;57 Did you have occasion at any time, did you ever communicate with him other than face to face? Sometimes through Facebook chat or text message. Did you ever iChat with him? Only through instant messaging. Did you have iChat? Yes. I have a MacBook 14;23;32 Did you have the ability to video? Yes. Did you with Dahrun? No. Anyone outside Davidson C? No. More towards people from Syracuse. So if iChat was like an application on your computer? Yes. That allowed you to iChat outside Rutgers? Yes. 14;24;17 This item hasn't been marked yet judge. 14;24;50 Look at S-38. What does that look like? My phone number and my name. Was that your number? Yes. 14;25;19 Now after Sept. 19th, do you recall seeing Dahrun again on Tues, Sept. 21st? I believe so. Where? In the lounge again. What time? I want to say after dinner, which would be around 7 or 8. And did you have conversation with him? Yes. It was just brief. Can you tell the jury what the conversation was? I was in the lounge just I think getting something from the vending machine. Dahrun came through the door and that I need to grab my stuff and that Tyler asked for the room again. He said he was going to stay somewhere else. He went to ultimate Frisbee practice. 14;26;35 What door? Exit to Bush dining hall. Was he coming in that door or out? Coming in that door. Did you ever see him after that on that same night? No. 14;27;05 McClure has a moment. 14;27;52 Altman: Still go to Rutgers? Yes. Going back to last yaer, your freshmen year, you said that you got a random roommate? Yes. Did Rutgers give you info as to who it was? Yes. Was that an email? I had to log in to a Rutgers database, an RUHousingcampus.org and it gave me my roommate assignment. I knew his name. They gave me his name. Did you do anything by way of a computer to research him? Just Facebook. You got his e-mail or name from Rutgers? His name from Rutgers and put it into Facebook and added him as a friend. 14;29;13 You start Rutgers and meet Dahrun at convocation? Yeah. Is that when you met him? Yes. We were both wearing skinny jeans so we thought we'd be cool. We were friends. 14;29;43 At convocation did you meet any other fellas at Rutgers that you got friendly with? When I met Dahrun I said briefly hi to him and he went his own way. We went to convocation separately. Did you know he was in ultimate Frisbee? Yes. Did you talk to him? Yes I wasn't in to it but he was always going there. 14;30;44 Did you talk to him about your roommate? Yeah. Nate Marcus. Get along? Yeah. Hang out? No. Did he talk to you about his roommate? Yeah. Hang out? Only that one time I was talking with her about. I was in his room and Tyler was doing his own thing. We never really hung out just in the same room. Did Dahrun talk about him? No he never said he didn't like him. 14;31;34 He would say sometimes he would be uncomfortable but didn't really have a problem with it. Problem because he might have been gay? Yeah. He knew that? He had a suspicion. 14;32;04 Sept. 19th, bring you to that Sunday. Were you on campus the entire day? Yeah, I think. Were you Facebook friends with Dahrun? Yes. You had a webcam? Yes. And you iChatted with Dahrun? Yes. 14;32;37 On the 19th, I think you told us you were in the lounge, by the vending machine. It was at night correct? Yes. And Dahrun tells you that his roommate wants to use the room correct? Yes. 14;33;13 I think you used the word distraught. You thought Dahrun was distraught? Yeah he was just like very I'm not sure hwo to put it. He wasn't very calm about it. He was a little jumpy. Was he angry? No. Concerned? A little bit. Did he appear like he didn't know what to do? Yes. 14;33;52 Did he tell you where he was going to go? Maybe Livingston. They didn't have spare rooms for different students to sleep in if perhaps someone wants to use the room? No. Were students allowed to sleep in the lounge? Sometimes. Sack out for the night in the lounge? Sometime. Dahrun comes up to you and you're by the vending machine, he said it was crazy, scandalous. Why crazy? Only because the guy that came into Tyler's room was older. He was older, significantly maybe older. Maybe not a Rutgers students. 14;35;00 That was your impression of why Dahrun was acting like he was? Yes. Does he say he wants to talk in Molly's room? Yeah in more private. Lot of guys and girl in the lounge? Can't recall. 14:35;25 Did you see Dahrun going from boy to boy or girl to girl talking at the same time? No he was coming to me cause we were getting close as friends. One of the guys Lokesh, did you know him? Yes. Was he there? No. 14;35;45 To get to Molly's room you have to walk down a corridor. And directly across from Molly's room is Dahrun's room correct? Yes. 14;36;07 Nobody listens in to hear if anything is going on do they? No. Tyler was in the room with this significantly older man correct? Yes. When you saw Dahrun in the lounge did he have a towel? No not in the lounge. Was he in need of a shower? Yes. I remember in Molly's room he had his shower basket ready. You go into Molly's room and the 3 of you are alone? Yes. They're talking to you about what they observed correct? Yes. 14;37:01 And you learn that they went into Molly's room and Molly and Dahrun activated this automatic chat to see what was going on correct? Yes. And they were trying to explain to you how they did it correct? Yes. Who was doing the talking? More Dahrun than Molly. Before this, did you know Dahrun had this feature where it automatically accepts a video chat? No. 14;37;41 Did he ever talk to you about his computer he programmed with the name Jarvis? No. Were you ever in his room when he activated his computer and it started talking to him in a British accent? No. 14:38;02 You're in the room with Molly and they asked you if you also wanted to see what was going on between Tyler and this man? And you said no. I did not want to be a part of it. You were interested because it was scandalous? Yes. Nobody forced you to see it did they? No. Dahrun left? He left and I was like okay I'm going to leave. He brought me in there and then we talked about it and then he was like ok I'm going to take a shower now. And I was like oaky then I'm going to leave too. 14;38;56 You saw him leave the room? Yes. And when he left he had a shower basket with him? Yes. A shower basket contains shampoo and soap. 14;36;16 Something you find in your room. No public shower baskets? Correct. You take from your room and put back in your room? Yes. Towel and a change of clothes? Yes. I don't know. When he walks out what's your opinion of where he's going to go? To the shower. 14;39;54 When he's done with the shower where do you think he was going? Back to his room. Do you know what he was going to do if his room was still closed? I would assume to go back to Molly's. Fair enough. 14;40;13 When you walk out of Molly's room, Molly is also left in the room alone? Yes. You told us you're now going back to the lounge? To my friend Kevin's room in the opposite wing. My wing. Somewhere you come across these 3 girls who want to go to Molly's room, true? Yes. 14;40;42 The only way you can get from Molly's room to your wing, you have to walk through the lounge? True. Where do you run into these girls? My wing. 14;41;09 These girls are Rashne, Kasenya, and Cassie and another girl. Yes. 14;41;38 How do you know that what they want to do is go to Molly's room? They talked to me about it. They talked to you about what? The situation. 14;41;57 They talked to you about the situation with Tyler? Yeah. Which of these 4 girls is doing the talking? I can't remember. Based upon what they tell you, you decide to show them where Molly's room is? They know where Molly's room is because Cassie is the roommate to Molly. So why did they need you? I was jus talking with them about it. 14;42;27 So you walk with four girls through the lounge to the other wing talking to them about the situation with Tyler? I want to say it was more of we talked about it and then I walked into the room and then we went our separate ways. 14;43;04 Did you tell us during the other examination that you walked back over with these girls to Molly's room because they were talking about looking at the video also? I think they wanted more clarification about what was going on. Because Dahrun was not present. They did not know what was actually going on. So the jury knows, Dahrun was in the shower while you were meeting the girls and walking with them from one room to the other? Um I can't say that the times match up so I'm not going to say he was in the shower so I couldn't know if he was in the shower cause he wasn't with me. 14;43;46 You bring the girls to Molly's room? Yes. Do you go in? I don't think so. I think we were talking with the door open and then I left. When you left, Dahrun is not there? True. The girls are there alone without Dahrun? True. You don't know what happened? No. You go back out the lounge and hang out with Vishal? Yes. He lives in the dorm? Yes. 14;44;44 You stay with Vishal and then go back to your room? Yeah. I think under direct examination that at some point you ran into Dahrun in the lounge again and he said he didn't know where to go? 14;45;22 Whose Kevin Spencer? My friend. Did you see him that night? Yeah in his room. When were you in his room? Most of the night. But under direct examination Ms. McClure was asking where you were going you told us all this stuff but never told us about Kevin Spencer, why? He did. 14:46;05 When did you go to Kevin Spencer's room? After I was with Molly and Dahrun. 14;46;15 After you left Dahrun? Yes. But you told us you went to the wing and then went back to Molly's room? I don't think the times match up. I went to Kevin Spencer's room and hung out with him and then ran into the girls. 14;46;52 At some point you give a statement to an investigators, and it was a statement you gave to them and they taped it? Yes. They transcribed it? Yes. 14;47;45 After you were given that transcript did he tel you to read it? Yes. When did you get it? I don't know. Maybe December when I got the subpoena. Were you told that if there was a mistake you should tell the prosecutor? Yes. But you didn't tell anyone there was a mistake? There was only mistake. I said in the statement that he was coming back from the Ultimate Frisbee practice but he was actually going to it because Ultimate Frisbee doesn't start until 9. Who did you tell? The lawyers there. 14:48:37 SIDEBAR 15:11:50 15:13: DEFENSE: IS THAT YOUR STATEMENT ALVIN: YES DEFENSE 15:13:25: ON 9/19 DID YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER CONVERSATIONS WITH DAHRUN ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN HIS ROOM AFTER HE TOOK A SHOWER ALVIN: NO DEFENSE: PG 7 LINE 17.

Location: Middlesex County Courthouse, New Brunswick, NJ Pool source: In Session From: Koenigs, Michael Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2012 11:32 PM Subject: Witnesses expected to testify tomorrow Below is a list summarizing the witnesses whom the prosecution plans to call after opening statements tomorrow. 1. William O'Brien, Rutgers University He is currently the Associate Director of Administration and Graduate Students at Rutgers and will likely testify on the immediate reaction of the school to Clementi's complaint when he filed to change roommates. O'Brien deals with resident life and may have dealt with Clementi directly. 2. Cassandra Cicco, 108 Willowbrook Court, Paramus, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://1> Cassandra Cicco was one of two female students present when Molly Wei tried to viewed Clementi's encounter on the laptop webcam (while Ravi was not present). Cicco told the State that she witnessed Ravi telling Molly Wei to tell friends not to call his webcam (according to defense's Motion to Dismiss). 3. Pooja Kolluri, 7 Dennison Drive, East Windsor, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://2> Another female Rutgers student who was close with Wei. She described Wei to one reporter as "She was really a very happy person." Pooja Kolluri told investigators that she never heard Ravi say anything negative about homosexuals. 4. Scott Xu, 23 Springhouse Circle, Manalapan, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://3> Scott Xu, a friend of Defendant since the seventh grade, said that he has never had any problem with anyone being gay. He attended Windsor-Plainsboro North high school with Ravi, and competed on the Track & field team. Scott is also active on Twitter: 5. Alvin Artha: 4 Eaton Court, West Windsor, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://4> Alvin Artha has also know Ravi since high school and told the State that Ravi was not homophobic. Ravi did tell Artha about the webcam incident. After leaving Wei's room, he spoke to other friends in the lounge, including Artha. According to the Motion to Dismiss, he brought Artha back to Wei's room and told him what they had seen. They did not access the webcam. Ravi then left again to take his shower. While Ravi was gone, Wei invited some girlfriends (likely Pooja and Cassandra) to her room . Wei turned on the iChat a second time, without Ravi present . This time, the girls saw T .C . and M .B . with their shirts off, and then again shut it off after a few seconds . A prosecutor told jurors Friday that it was no mistake that a Rutgers student used a webcam to spy on his roommate's intimate encounter with another man. "The defendant's acts were deliberately planned to invade Tyler's privacy," First Assistant Middlesex County Prosecutor Julia McClure told jurors to open the hate crime trial of Dharun Ravi, "and to deprive him of his dignity." "They were planned to expose Tyler Clementi's sexual orientation and they were planned to expose Tyler Clementi's private sexual activity," she said. Nineteen-year-old Ravi faces 15 criminal charges, including invasion of privacy and bias intimidation, a hate crime punishable by up to 10 years in state prison. The case spurred a national conversation about how young gays are treated when news of it broke in September 2010 after Ravi's roommate, Tyler Clementi, committed suicide. In her half-hour opening statement, McClure did not mention Clementi's suicide. Ravi's lawyer was expected to give his opening statement later Friday morning, likely saying that Ravi meant no harm. That's a position McClure tried to dispel preventatively. "The defendant's acts were not a prank, they were not an accident and they were not a mistake," she said. "They were mean-spirited, they were malicious and they were criminal." She also said that Ravi began telling friends that he was unhappy he'd have a gay roommate soon after he received his Rutgers housing assignment in August 2010.

FTG OF TYLER CLEMENTI SUICIDE COURT CASE OPENING STATEMENTS Court done for today, will resume Monday 2/26 at 9AM. Here's a very rough log of the trial. 09:31:47 Good morning members of the jury on Aug. 6th, 2010, first year incoming students at Rutgers univ. were given their roommate assignments and alerted to the emails of the person that would be their roommate. Tyler and Dahrun Ravi were assigned to be roommates in Room 30 Davison C. They received that information and each other's email addresses so they could contact each other before they arrived on campus. Some students might try to do some research on their roommate. Maybe to see if they're on any social networking sites such as Facebook. Dahrun Ravi did that with his roommate Tyler. What he found by doing that research about Tyler was troubling to him because he found out Tyler was probably homosexual. The defendant was none too happy about that. 09:33:16 He discussed his displeasure with his friends before he arrived at Rutgers and he continued to discuss it with friends and then people that he met at Rutgers. Some of those people would eventually be the dorm mates. On Aug. 28, 2010 was the move-in date so that was the first day that Tyler and Dahrun actually met each other. They began to live in Davison C. There are two key dates in this case. Those 2 key dates are Sept. 19th and Sept. 21st which was a Tuesday. Those events on the 19th give rise to the 2 counts of invasion of privacy against the defendant. 09:34:38 That privacy that they expected that they had a reasonable expectation to have. That invasion encompassed viewing private sexual activity in that room. On Tues. Sept. 21st there was an attempt at invading that privacy again. The state's allegations are those counts of invasion of privacy on the 19th and the attempt on the 21st were motivated by the fact that Tyler and his guest were both homosexual. The proof in this case not only come from the witness but evidence. 09:35:06 Some of that evidence will come from the defendant's side and the defendant's computer. Some of that evidence will come from Tyler's cell phone and computer. You will see and hear evidence from other students cell phones and computers. You'll hear evidence from administrator's from Rutgers Univ. Now there's really 3 chapters I suggest to you in this case and chapter 1 started on Sunday night. Tyler asked his roommate Dahrun if he could have the room for some private time until midnight. The defendant said sure and he left the room. And when he left the room he went across the hallway to af friend's from that happened to be a friend he knew from high school. When he went across to the friend's room he asked to use her computer and while in that room with her he went on her computer and he accessed the webcam in his computer. That webcam had been set up to have an automatic accept feature on the iCHat application. He went into that iChat and he and his friend from across the hall viewed live images of Tyler and his male guest engaging in sexual activity in that room, kissing with their shirts off. 09:37:18 After they viewed that the defendant then went on to encourage other people in the dorm to come and view that also. Even that though was not enough for the defendant. Within minutes of viewing those live video images he didn't say "I'm shocked." I realize I invaded privacy. That's not what he said. What he did was he sent out a message via his Twitter account and his Twitter account was public so it would post message to followers. He had followers at Rutgers and places outside. And that first Twitter message, that public announcement, Roommate asked for room til midnight. I went into Mollys room and turned on my webcam. I saw my roommate making out with a dude, yay. That message went out to followers. 09:39:26 Again, even that wasn't good enough. He went into the lounge and invited and encouraged other people to come back and view what was on that webcam. Ladies and gentlemen I suggest to you that it was like opening the blinds in that room. He opened the blinds, he viewed what was going on in those blinds. He left the blinds open and he invited and encouraged other people to look. There was more to come. Chapter 2. Tuesday, Sept. 21st in the evening hours Tyler texts his roommate and asked him if he could use the room again. Defendant could have said no. He text back and says "no problem." But that was a lie and it was a trap. Because within about an hour of sending that text message back to Tyler, he sent out another Tweet, another public announcement. This time it was more than an announcement. It was an invitation. That message said "Anyone with iChat, I dare you to video chat me between 9:30 and 12. Yes it's happening again." 09:41:05 I submit to you ladies and gentlemen that was a public announcement and a public invitation. Not only an invitation did it talk about what happened 2 nights before. It added a challenge, I dare you to videochat me. Again, that wasn't good enough for the defendant because after that he went on separate occasions into rooms of other friends that he had made. One of the friends he accessed through that friend's computer, his webcam, to make sure it was working and it was angled toward Tyler's bed. About an hour later, he went into another friend's room, accessed his webcam through her computer to make sure that webcam was working, set up, and angled toward Tyler's bed. 09:42:46 At some point defendant's bravado leads to his downfall because the Twitter messages come to the attention of Tyler. Tyler finds out what happened on the 19th and wahts happened for the 21st. He goes to see one of the RAs and he tells them about these incidents and reports it and says he wants a room change. Not only does Tyler make that report to the RA, but then he goes back to the room on Tuesday the 21st before his guest arrives, the same guest. And he shuts down the defendant's computer system. That's why those charges are an attempt to invade privacy. 09:43:59 Now the RA at some point the next day tells Dahrun about Tyler's report to him so the defendant now knows that Tyler knows. I suggest to you that at that point he begins to be worried that what he has done is going to be exposed. He begins to think about how to cover up the tracks that have already been laid. Now remember that Aug 28th was the move in date. That was the first day Dahrun and Tyler even met each other. Its only 3 weeks that they have lived together as roommates at Rutgers. During that time, the defendant has exposed not only Tyler's sexual orientation but he has exposed his private sexual activity or attempted to. 09:45:20 He's seeking to brand Tyler as different from everybody else. He is branding Tyler as gay to set him up for contempt and ridicule. Defendant's acts were not a prank, not an accident, not a mistake. They certainly were not good natured. These acts were purposeful, intentional, and they were planned. I would suggest that beyond that they were mean spirited, malicious, and they were criminal. Those acts were meant to cross one of the most sacred boundaries of human privacy. Engaging in private consensual sexual activity with another human. In addition to those acts, you have defendant's words. Words that were very deliberate. 09:46:50 I suggest that either those acts alone, those words alone, those acts and words together show a deliberate and purposeful and calculated plan on this defendant's part to invade the privacy of Tyler and his guest. Now we come to chapter 3. 09:47:26 On the eve of Wed. Sept. 22nd a police officer comes to Room 30 looking for Tyler. Dahrun is there. In conversations, Dahrun tells the police officer about Tyler having a guest over on the 19th. But curiously he doesn't tell him about the guest on Tuesday. After the police officer leaves, I suggest the defendant now knows from the RA because Tyler has reported it but also because the police were there, that his acts might be something he needs to be concerned about. You'll hear evidence that he deletes those Twitter messages that had been posted. The one from the 19th and then the one from Tuesday the 21st. He deletes those messages and then just for good measure. He replaces them with what I'll call fake Tweets. He creates Tweets and the first one that he creates is calculated to be very close to that Tweet of that night of Sept. 21st. He changes it from anyone with iChat I dare you to chat me TO Roommate asked for room again. It's happening again. Anyone with iChat, don't you dare video chat me from 9:30-12. 09:50:02 Just enough that they missed the don't. Not only does he send out that fake tweet he puts another one on. This one says everyone ignore that last Tweet. Stupid drafts. 09:50:30 You'll also hear that on Sept. 23rd the friend from across the hall, he finds out that the Rutgers police are interviewing that friend. And he calls her and when he calls her she says I'm with the police and I can't talk to you. Immediately the defendant starts to send her texts. Those text messages you'll hear, contain two types of information. One is information that he's hoping the friend will tell police. That this was an accident, a mistake. Give them false info. He starts tot talk about the 21st. And he starts to feed information so it will be conveyed to the police. 09:52:01 Defendant is in the custody with Rutgers Univ police. He gives a statement that I will suggest in that statement there's again false information being given to the law enforcement officers. Based on legal paperwork, eh gives his cell phone over to the police and that cell phone doesn't have those text messages that earlier that same night he had been texting to his friend. They have been deleted from his cell phone. MISSING END OF PROSECUTORS OPENING STATEMENT, BEGINNING OF DEFENSE OPENING STATEMENT 10:31 DEFENSE OPENING STATEMENT: 18 year old boy who just graduated high school. What do you think his reaction is going to be? Aw, nuts. Is that something you would expect an 18 year old boy to talk about with his friends? Would it be so unusual unreasonable? And not once in all of those conversations does Donald say one thing that's hateful. What's happening is those friends are reacting just as you think they'd react. They start teasing him and busting him. The room is a hateful, anti-gay, bigoted young boy. So you got to keep things in perspective. You got to see what this is all about. If that was true, you would expect to see continued behavior, continued conversation by Dahrun evidencing this hate this distaste against his roommate and there wasn't any. If you went to college you know the first day you're away from home, your parents are there moving you in. This is your room, where you're going to live for that year. 10:33 This room because it's Dahrun room, it's Dahrun's room. It's where he lives, it's where he goes. It's where his clothes are. It's where his underwear is. Where his private belongings are. It's his room that both boys have to share. There's 80 students in the dormitory, 40 in one wing, 40 in another, and a lounge separating the wings. It has a ping pong table, comfortable chairs, and a big TV where the students can hang out. Down each hallway, you go into a room. Cinderblock, army barracks type rooms. 10:34 If you lay in your bed you can almost lean over and touch the other bed. You get a bed, a desk, you can take the desk and put it against the wall, you have a dresser you can move wherever. And you get a closet, a closet that you can't move around. There might be two outlets in each room for you to use. One under your bed and another one. Not a very big room and this is the room that you get to live in. 10:34 It's Tyler's room, it's Dahrun's room. These are co-ed also. There's rooms for the girls and rooms for the boys. 10:36 When he saw his roommate he went on a mission to make his life miserable. That's what you would think, but it never happened. They did not become friends, they did not become buddies. Two different parts of New Jersey, two different sets of interests, Dahrun lettered in track, played ultimate Frisbee, it's a big thing now. He breakdanced, very very social, had a lot of friends, was a technological genius. He could do things with computers at 18 at 17 that we couldn't even imagine to do. You'll hear in high school Dahrun went to see Iron Man and Dahrun had the technological skills to create a program that he called Jarvis and gave a British accent to. This program could tell him when to go to class, what the bus schedule is, when he should go to dinner. He created a GPS on the program so it would go on if someone went near his bed. It did all sorts of neat things. And on it was an auto-accept feature on a video cam. If somebody calls you on a phone, you have to pick it up. The auto-accept feature meant as soon as you video chat, the screen went on and you would see his room. And if he was there he would see you. 10:39 He was an 18 year old boy and he could do it. He did it long before he went to college it had nothing to do with this roommate. His roommate came from Ridgewood, a nice young man, an accomplished violinist. He played in the band at Rutgers, he was very very good, very shy, very quiet, the exact opposite of Dahrun. Dahrun was going to take advantage of college, go out and meet girls. 10:39 There was nothing that causes you to believe Dahrun is a bad person. Nothing, zero. And I'm not going to break things up in chapters but it's just not what the prosecutor tells you. Not what the prosecutor tells you. Nobody ever video chatted, viewed, looked at anything in order to see anybody engaged in any sexual activity. The truth is and you'll see it nobody ever broadcasted anything, nobody transmitted anything, nobody recorded anything, nobody reproduced any image of anything. Nothing, zero. 10:41 What I want to do and I could respond to Ms. McClure and give you my commentary, my closing, my interpretation, my spin on what occurred. That's not what I'm going to do. I'm going to ask every one of you as you listen to the testimony, almost close your eyes and you project back like you're reviewing in your mind, the movie that you saw, or the book that you read as to what the lives of Dahrun and Tyler were like, as different as they were. Because you have to make decisions. I can't tell you that Dahrun didn't act like a boy, immature, or childish. He's 18. You have to decide what he did was criminal. So I'm going to bring out now a lot of statements and questions that I want you hopefully to consider as you search for the truth of why, it's not so important what happened, it's why. We all do things in our lives and make mistakes why. Just because we do something stupid and make mistakes, esp. when we're young doesn't mean we're hateful and we're bigoted or we're a criminal. 10:43 In fact Dahrun never intimidated anybody. He never committed a crime; he never committed a hateful crime. You'll see in the evidence he's not homophobic or anti-gay. He never broadcasted, transmitted his roommate. He never harassed his roommate. He never ever spoke negatively about his roommate. He thought he was a nice guy, he had no problem with him. He never bullied. 10:44 There was no bullying, no bullying, no cyber bullying, no bullying by way of a computer or a Twitter or a Tweet. He's not a bigot. He never ever did anything to suggest to you that he targeted his roommate for any reason. 10:44 Now stop for a moment. There's 3 parties to this story. Three people involved. In Dahrun and Tyler's life back then, you heard about Tyler you heard of Dahrun. There's been no mention of MB, the third person. MB was not a student at Rutgers University. He didn't belong on Rutgers University. Everybody in that dorm, 18 maybe 19, it's a freshmen dorm. Remember they're 3 weeks into their freshmen year. All of a sudden visiting the dorm, is a 30 year old man. Various people describe this person who clearly doesn't belong, a scruffy, shady looking, old, homeless looking, creepy older dude, 25-26, slightly overweight, beard, goatee. Who is he? What's he doing there? Does he belong there? 10:46 Is there a curiosity for who he is and why he's there? 18-year-old dorm. 18-year-old. Dahrun doesn't know who this person is. He saw him once. On Sept. 19th, and Dahrun is walking out of his room, he had ultimate Frisbee practice. He came back, Sept. 19th. He wants to take a shower. His roommate said can I have a buddy over? There's no discussion about sexuality or what's going to happen in the room. Dahrun is walking out of his dorm room with a towel draped over his shoulder and a shower caddy and a change of clothes. This scruffy, shady, homeless looking man walks into his room. He's not introduced and he's told, don't come back for awhile. 10:47 So who is MB? You'll learn. You'll learn how he met Dahrun's roommate, why he was there on the 19th; you'll learn what he knew and what he didn't know. There's a whole lot more to this. Certainly Dahrun never intended, wanted to harass, intimidate, for this person who he didn't know. Who he still doesn't know. 10:48 There was viewings on Sept. 19th. That viewing lasted 2-5 seconds. What was observed by Dahrun, who purportedly wanted to see some sexual relation take place, was the back of two people from the corner of the room, embracing. Looked like they were kissing. That was it. Nothing more. You'd think the whole purpose was to watch someone engage in sexual intimacy, you would have had to watch a little longer. That's the extent of everything Dahrun saw. And on the 21st, what all Ms. McClure told you, what's interesting, what you'll learn, but nobody saw anything. Nothing was recorded, nothing was transmitted and that night Dahrun Ravi left his room to go to ultimate Frisbee practice. He came back at 11 o'clock. He asked his roommate, can he come back and he never got a response. So Dahrun can't go into his own room so he goes into a friend's room and he doesn't get on his computer to see what's going on. 10:50 Because he never wanted to see anything and he made sure, and you'll hear, why nobody would see anything. It's all a little different than what's being projected. 10:51 In conclusion, please keep in mind its Dahrun Ravi's room. And you're not going to be in a position to fully understand what was going on back there unless you remember 18yo boy. And again I'm going to say it. Not hateful, not a bigot, at 18 he didn't have enough experience in life. He was 18. When we get done here, you're going to see. Might be stupid at times but he's an 18 yo boy and he's certainly not a criminal. 10:53 First Witness Mr. Austin Chung, please come up sir. Mr. Chung, good morning. Mr. Chung, unless you prefer to affirm can you please place your left hand on the Bible? 10:53 Tell the members of the jury where you went to high school? Plainsboro 10:54 So you graduated in 2010? Do you know Dahrun Ravi? Yes. We were high school friends. I think there were around 400 people. Did you know Molly Way? Yes. How did you know her? She was my girlfriend in high school and now. Did she attend Plainsboro? Yes. And Mr. Ravi also? Yes. During the course of the summer did you learn where Mr. Ravi was going to be attending college? Yes, Rutgers. In New Brunswick? Yes, Molly also Rutgers. You didn't attend Rutgers did you? No I go to Stevens in Hoboken. 10:55 My school started in the end of August 2010. After you went to college did you talk with Molly Way? Yeah I talked to her daily I'd say. Were you in a relationship then with her? It was on and off but I think yes. How did you communicate with her? Through AIM or by phone. Either text or by calling her. So you'd actually speak to her? Yeah. Tell us what AIM is? AOL Instant Messaging so basically we can type to each other and communicate by talking. 10:56 Can you only do that by computer? There are apps so you can do it by phone too. How would you normally communicate with Molly? Through using my computer. How do you connect, is there a number? We both have names, my name was AJChung006. Is that similar to having a phone number? Yes. What about Mr. Ravi, did you communicate with him? Not as much but I think we spoke like how are you doing, how's school. How did you communicate? Also by AIM or phone. 10:57 What was his screen name? Dahrun had more than one but I think it was MassInflux, I don't know. I think he had 2. Now, after you went to Stevens did you become aware that Molly Way and Dahrun Ravi went to Rutgers? Yes, both in the dorms. How did you find out where they lived? If we talked, and we asked how school is going I'm guessing they'd say oh I'm on Bush Campus. Did you visit? There was a weekend that I went down to visit people at Rutgers. It was a long weekend in Sept. I think Labor Day. Did you come to Rutgers by yourself? I can with Jason Tam, a mutual friend. 10:59 While you were at Rutgers did you see Molly? I saw her at her dorm. The name of the dorm? Don't remember the name but yes. Did you see Dahrun? Yes. I think so. Do you recall where he lived? The same dorm. Did you see them both in the dorm? Yes. How close did they live? Across the hall. 11:00:01 I'm going to call your attention to Sun. Sept. 19th. Where were you? Not exactly. I was at school. I'm going to call your attention to approx. 9 o'clock in the evening hours, do you remember where you were? I think I was in my room or the library. If you were in the room or the library would you have your cell with you? Yes and a computer. What kind of computer did you have? Our school gives out laptop to all the students so it's an HP elite book. Did you carry it with you? Yes to all my classes and library. 11:00:57 So do you remember approx 9 o'clock on the evening on sept. 19th having communication with either Molly or Dahrun? Yes. How do you remember that? I was at a meeting so my computer automatically opens up AIM so I guess we just started chatting like that. Can you explain that? If I turn on my computer AIM will automatically start. Is there something that gives you an indication of why it's starting? If I get a message then a window pops up. What does that mean to you when that window pops up? That I'm getting a new message and I can reply or close it. Do you know who you're getting that message from? Yes. Do you remember getting a message? Yes it was from Molly. Does it come up as her screen name? Her screen name. 11:02:35 I talk back to her. Did you begin to communicate? Yeah. Can you tell the jury what form that takes? I'm using my keyboard to type messages to her. Is it like texting? Yeah but faster. During the course of that communication was there any indication that there was anyone else involved? During the AIM chat, Dahrun stopped in and talked. During this communication through AIM what are you talking about? I guess they just saw Tyler kissing his boyfriend or friend. When you say Tyler who are you referring? Dahrun's roommate. How did you know Tyler? That one time I stopped by I think there was one time Dahrun was sleeping and Tyler opened and I was like Oh is Dahrun there and then we introduced ourselves. So you knew Tyler to be Dahrun's roommate? Is that the only occasion you met him? Yes. 11:04:30 Indication that this was about Tyler? Yeah I think so. What did you understand when this chat took place? Basically they were just overwhelmed seeing what they say. They were telling me about it. I'll ask you to look at S-25. 11:05:46 Look at this item, S-25. Look and see if it looks familiar. Yes it does. What is it? It's a screen shot of our chat. What's at the top? It says AIM IM with AJChung006. Sept. 19th, 2010. Did you read it over? Yes. Is that the way you remember the AIM chat? Judge may I put it up on the overheard? 11:07:18 SHOWING SCREEN SHOT ON OVERHEAD 11:07:32 Can you tell us about which side is your part? I'm the purple. The left side. On the right side, what's that? That's a picture of Molly. It's her screen name so it's her picture. Can you read for us what it says? 11:08:12 I say "sup." She says, "Oh my fucking god Austin, Dahrun's in my room, we got to tell you the craziest thing that just happened. He's going to tell you." I say "Just type it, I'm at my meeting." He says "It's Dahrun, okay so my roommate asked for the room until midnight and I was like what the fuck but I was like whatever and said okay and I left. I went into Molly's room and I saw him making out with some dude. And I saw .eww what the fuck. 11:09:20 So the part where it comes to its Dahrun okay. That was Dahrun talking to me. Did you have more communication after this point? I think Molly came back and we talked. So this is the extent of the conversation with Mr. Ravi? Yes. At the time, can you tell us what the top says? 9:20 p.m. At the time in Sept. 2010 did you have a Twitter account? No. At some point after this communication on Sept. 19th did you hear again from Molly Way? Yes. 11:10:48 Do you remember Thurs, Sept. 23, do you recall? Yes. Through text message. Do you recall what time that was? I think the afternoon. What was the communication via text about? Molly was getting picked up by the cops but the cops were in an undercover cop car so she wasn't sure if it was the real cops but if she didn't call me by 10 pm I should call the cops. I was pretty nervous so I tried to figure out what was going on. How? I tried calling her multiple times but she didn't pick up. I called Dahrun or texted him. Do you remember? I think it was both. What was your purpose for contacting Dahrun? I just wanted to see if he knew what was going on and if Molly was okay. Was there a reason you contacted him? I think that day Molly told me Tyler was missing. When you contacted Dahrun what'd you tell him? He said he'd find out about Molly. 11:13:10 LOOKS AT S-28 AND S-29. 11:13:59 It's a picture of my contact in a Blackberry and my name and phone number. 11:14:15 S-29. It's a text message with me and Dahrun I'm assuming. Is there some way of dating and time? Sept. 23, 2010, 5:17pm. That's on that screen? Yes. 11:15:00 PUTTING SCREEN SHOTS ON OVERHEAD 11:15:29 What's on the top? My name. What does that indicate? That it's a text with me. There's a green box, what is that? That's Dahrun. She's fine I talked to her, she's being questioned about some stuff, I'll explain later. What does your response say? Kk thanks man, I was just freaking out, you doing okay? That was after you tried to contact Ms. Way? Yes. 11:16:30 Do you have video chat capacity on your laptop? Yes. Have you ever used iChat? iChat is for Macs so since I have HP I don't have that but I can chat via other things. Have you ever done it with anyone outside of Stevens? Yes. 11:17:10 Mr. Chung you said you think it's Labor Day you went to visit Rutgers? Yes. That you actually met Tyler? Yes. Had you ever had any discussion with Mr. Ravi before meeting Tyler about Tyler? Yes. When? During the summer. What was that communication about? Basically asking about do you know your roommate how is he stuff like that. He found out Tyler was gay so he told me. Do you recall how he found that out? I think he Googled him or Facebooked. Through those means he found out? Yes. I think he told me through AIM. 11:18:26 That was before you left for college and before he left? Yes, yes. Did he say anything else about knowing about Tyler being gay? No, it was just a casual conversation. Did he say he knew Tyler was gay or thought? I'm assuming if you find stuff on the internet. There was no way for sure that Dahrun knew. That was his belief? Yes. 11:19:16 DEFENSE WANTS TO QUESTION AUSTIN CHUNG. SIDE BAR. 11:20:23 SHOT OF DAHRUN RAVI LISTENING TO HEADPHONES 11:34:21 You told us you were boyfriend and girlfriend with Molly and on and off? Yeah. When you were in high school you said you were friends with Dahrun too? Yeah. We played Frisbee together. It's basically a sports team but it's a club sport. So you traveled from location to location? Yeah. There were times you were alone with Dahrun? Yes. Other than ultimate Frisbee did you hang out? Yeah. We would see each other and eat at lunch. Do you know if Dahrun was involved in other activities? He did track throughout high school too. Sorry I'm blanking. Sorry. I just can't think of any. The prosecutor asked you if Dahrun was in court, is that him? Yeah. In high school, you graduated the same time correct? Yeah. Did you have a computer? Yes. Did you talk with Dahrun about computers? No. I'm not that good with computers. Was he smart in high school? Dahrun could do a lot of things with computers. A lot of things that I can't do. And other people can't do. Did you ever hear of a computer called Jarvis? I think I've heard about it yes. I think it's basically like from Iron Man. He could tell the computer to do something and it would do it. 11:37:41 I never Tweeted or followed anyone. When did you graduate? June 2010. Started at Stevens end of August. Did you hang out with Dahrun during the summer? Yeah there were graduation parties during the summer so yeah we hung out. Did you ever have any conversations with Dahrun about his roommate and you told us yes. You room in Stevens in Hoboken. Did you have a roommate? Yes. Did you know who it was? Not until Stevens told me. How did they tell you? They sent out an e-mail saying you're in room, dorm, with name. Did you research yourself? Yes. How did you learn about that roommate? I just tried to find him on Facebook and I e-mailed him too. Did you first find him on facebook? Yes I think so. Is that normal for most students to learn about their roommates through Facebook? Yes you want to get to know them. My roommate had just made a Facebook so it was pretty new so I couldn't really tell anything by him. Would there have been an alternative if there was no facebook? Besides e-mailing him? You can always Google someone. That's not unusual is it? No. 11:40:14 When Dahrun told you he thought his roommate was gay did he make any comments? I probably asked him how do you feel about that. It's a conflict of interest if his roommate is gay and Dahrun isn't. And you think you probably asked him that? Yes. Did Dahrun say anything that caused you to believe Dahrun was upset that his roommate was gay? Not really. Prior to this conversation with Dahrun did you ever in the years you knew Dahrun, ever hear Dahrun say anything negative about people who might have been gay? No. Did you hear other people in the school that they thought Dahrun had a problem with gays? No. 11:41:37 You told us you came to Rutgers with Jason Tam, whose that? A friend of mine and Dahrun's. He goes to Cooper Union in the city. The two of you came together? Yes. Other than Molly and Dahrun were there other high school graduates from Plainsburough that were going to Rutgers? Yeah definitely there are a lot. So when you came there it was to hang out with your high school buddies? Yes. I know you told us you went to Dahrun's room and Tyler answered. Yes. Did you have any conversation with Tyler? It was just introduction. Did Dahrun wake up? Not when I was there but I saw him after. You were with Jason probably, and Molly? Yeah probably. If you can, what other high school friends of yours would have spent time with you that weekend? Our main friend is like Scott. He's just pretty much our best friend. Scott Xu. He goes to Rutgers? Yes. He played Ultimate Frisbee with me and Dahrun. 11:43:55 So other than Scott, Dahrun, Molly and Jason were there even more kids you would have hung out with that weekend? Um yeah, people lived in their dorms. That weekend, was there any discussion about Tyler? I don't think so. Did you hear anything from any of your other friends about something that Dahrun had told them about Tyler? No. After that weekend was over, did you continue for the next few weeks speak to Dahrun? Yeah. Did he ever say anything about any displeasure or problems with Tyler? No he said Tyler is a nice guy. 11:45:08 Some time in September he told me Tyler is a nice guy. On Sept. 19th, that's the day you had this instant message, if you remember, had you spoken to Molly or Dahrun earlier that day? I'm sure I talked to Molly earlier that day, I don't know if I talked to Dahrun. Did Molly say anything to you about Tyler and what Dahrun wanted to do? No. When you received that message from Molly were you surprised that you received it? You said you were in class at the time? A meeting. Let's put that message on the screen. 11:47:32 It says, 9:19, 9:20 pm. This conversation that you had with Molly and Dahrun, did it end on this page or did it continue? No it continued. This is all you spoke to Dahrun about? Yes. How long do you estimate you continued to chat with Molly? Probably until I went to bed. Talked about a lot of things during that time? Probably. Was part of the conversation what Molly had seen? I'm sure there was stuff about it. It starts off by the little yellow guy saying sup, does that mean anything? It's like what's up. 11:48:20 READING INSTANT MESSAGE AGAIN 11:49:02 At that point you didn't know what was going on? Yes. You go, I'm at a meeting correct? Yes. That's when Dahrun tells you it's Dahrun okay. 11:49:39 "And I was like WTF but whatever I said okay and I left and I went into Molly's room and I turned on my webcam from there and I saw him making out with some dude." True? Yes. I was probably just in shock. 11:50:45 What would you have been shocked about? After . you go ew, what does that mean? It means ew, like something that you don't like. 11:51:19 At that point was your conversation with Dahrun over? Yes. After Sept. 19th, obviously Sept. 20th, did you communicate Dahrun to further discuss what you saw? No. Sept. 21st did you communicate to further discuss what he saw? No. Did you make any attempts to get in touch with Molly about what Dahrun had told you? I don't think so. 11:52:05 Was the next time you talked to Dahrun, Sept. 23rd? Yes.

I was a freshmen last year. Lived in Davidson Hall C. Which room? 21. 14;08;40 Look at this diagram. 14;08;49 Does that diagram look like Davidson C? Yes. Which side of Davidson C did you live on? I lived on the left hand side. Could you get up and put an X where you lived? 14;09;32 Before you got to Rutgers did you get your room assignment from the university? Yes. I had a random roommate assignment. I just requested I live on Bush and they gave me Davidson Hall C. Do you remember moving in to Davidson C? Yes. What day? Not quite sure the day. August 28. 14;10;09 When you moved in did either Davidson C or Rutgers have activities for first year students? Yes, convocation. We met the dean. When was that? A day after I moved in. What happens? All the freshmen or first year students come to Rutgers and meet the dean and the glee club sings. Where? The stadium. 14;10;54 Did you meet Dahrun Ravi? Yes. Where? I believe it was before convocation right outside Davidson Hall. We would all go to the stadium and walk to the stadium. Had you seen him before at the residence hall? Yes. 14;11;40 Did you maintain a friendship with him? Yes. What did you do? Hang out. We only saw each other once a day. In the lounge talking as friends. 14;12;05 Look at S-13. Does that look familiar? Yes. It is the lounge of Davidson C. When you would hang out was there anything particular you would do? I played pool. Is there a pool table in that picture? Yes. Did you have occasion to meet Molly Wei? Yes. When? I met Molly through Dahrun, not sure what day, but later on in September. Wasn't toward the beginning when everyone was meeting each other. 14;12;05 Through Dahrun, what does that mean? Dahrun knew Molly and when I was hanging ou with him I was hanging out with her. Were they in the same wing as you? They were the opposite side. Can you describe your friendship with Molly? I would describe it as acquaintances. Awkward acquaintances. I only talked to her cause I was friends with Dahrun. 14;13;57 When did you meet Tyler Clementi? I don't remember when but I was in Dahrun's room, talking to him about something on his computer. Tyler was just sitting on his side of the room with headphones in his ears. I didn't get to know him per say I just saw him and knew who he was cause he was Dahrun's roommate. 14;14;37 Do you know when that was after you moved in? A week or two. 14;14;49 Sept. 19th. Were you on campus? Yes. Where were you at 9 o'clock? Davidson Hall. I think. 14;15;16 Around that time period, would you have anything else to do on a Sunday night? No, it'd be logical to be at the dorm. Do you recall seeing Dahrun? Yes. Where? In the lobby in front of a vending machine. When you say lobby, on that diagram there.? I mean lounge. 14;15;57 When you saw Dahrun what was going on? On that day, he came up to me saying that he had a secret to say to me. He was kind of, not bugging out, more like distraught maybe. He said that Tyler my roommate had just invited a guy over and asked for the room to be his that night. I didn't really know Tyler but I was going on with oh wow that's crazy and scandalous. I think he described the guy who was invited as someone older so that was the more scandalous part. So that's what we discussed when we saw each other. 14;17;05 Anything else? He invited me over to Molly's room to talk about it more. I went over to Molly's room to talk about it more. Was it just you and Dahrun? Yes. While you were having that conversation in the lounge was anyone else? No one on one. 14;17;35 Had you been to Molly's room before that? No that's why it was awkward. What time? Around 9. When you got back to her room who was there? It was just Molly and Dahrun, just us three. 14;18;08 They were talking about a webcam in his room and was streaming a video. He explained the process to me, I don't remember but they were describing it to me and whether or not I wanted to see it or not. They had already seen so it they wanted me to see it. I didn't necessarily want to. After that, I kind of just left. 14;18;53 What was Dahrun describing to you? So Dahrun was explaining to me that they had not seen Tyler and the other person fornicate. They saw each other make out with their shirts off. It hadn't gone far enough to see anything else. It was for a brief moment and then they'd turn it off so they'd know what was going on, in his room. Did you stay or leave? 12:20;02 I didn't want to stay with Molly so when he was about to take a shower, I left. My friend Kevin's room. Did you stay in Kevin's room? I think other people wanted to go watch the video so I walked in to the room but I didn't want to watch it so then after I walked in I met with other friends in that hall. 14;20;50 The room, do you mean Molly's room? Yes. Who were those people? Cassie, Puja, Broshne, and everything else is a blur. Did they go back to the room with you? No I was following them cause they wanted to go to the room. We'll talk about it while we're talking and then I'll leave. 14;21;25 So did the four or five of you go back to Molly's room? Yeah. We went to my side of the wing to the other side of the wing. What happened when you got to Molly's room? They were talking with the door open and then they wanted to see it so then I was like ok I'm going to leave now. They stayed. 14;21;55 I went to hang out with my friend. Where? Either I went back to my side of the wing or Vishal was already on that side of the wing so I met up with him. 14;22;18 Did you see Dahrun that night? No. Did you see Tyler that night? No. Do you have a Twitter account? Yes. Did you in Sept. 2010. Yes. Did you ever follow Twitter messages from Dahrun? No. Mine is inactive. I didn't get it so I never used it. 14;22;57 Did you have occasion at any time, did you ever communicate with him other than face to face? Sometimes through Facebook chat or text message. Did you ever iChat with him? Only through instant messaging. Did you have iChat? Yes. I have a MacBook 14;23;32 Did you have the ability to video? Yes. Did you with Dahrun? No. Anyone outside Davidson C? No. More towards people from Syracuse. So if iChat was like an application on your computer? Yes. That allowed you to iChat outside Rutgers? Yes. 14;24;17 This item hasn't been marked yet judge. 14;24;50 Look at S-38. What does that look like? My phone number and my name. Was that your number? Yes. 14;25;19 Now after Sept. 19th, do you recall seeing Dahrun again on Tues, Sept. 21st? I believe so. Where? In the lounge again. What time? I want to say after dinner, which would be around 7 or 8. And did you have conversation with him? Yes. It was just brief. Can you tell the jury what the conversation was? I was in the lounge just I think getting something from the vending machine. Dahrun came through the door and that I need to grab my stuff and that Tyler asked for the room again. He said he was going to stay somewhere else. He went to ultimate Frisbee practice. 14;26;35 What door? Exit to Bush dining hall. Was he coming in that door or out? Coming in that door. Did you ever see him after that on that same night? No. 14;27;05 McClure has a moment. 14;27;52 Altman: Still go to Rutgers? Yes. Going back to last yaer, your freshmen year, you said that you got a random roommate? Yes. Did Rutgers give you info as to who it was? Yes. Was that an email? I had to log in to a Rutgers database, an RUHousingcampus.org and it gave me my roommate assignment. I knew his name. They gave me his name. Did you do anything by way of a computer to research him? Just Facebook. You got his e-mail or name from Rutgers? His name from Rutgers and put it into Facebook and added him as a friend. 14;29;13 You start Rutgers and meet Dahrun at convocation? Yeah. Is that when you met him? Yes. We were both wearing skinny jeans so we thought we'd be cool. We were friends. 14;29;43 At convocation did you meet any other fellas at Rutgers that you got friendly with? When I met Dahrun I said briefly hi to him and he went his own way. We went to convocation separately. Did you know he was in ultimate Frisbee? Yes. Did you talk to him? Yes I wasn't in to it but he was always going there. 14;30;44 Did you talk to him about your roommate? Yeah. Nate Marcus. Get along? Yeah. Hang out? No. Did he talk to you about his roommate? Yeah. Hang out? Only that one time I was talking with her about. I was in his room and Tyler was doing his own thing. We never really hung out just in the same room. Did Dahrun talk about him? No he never said he didn't like him. 14;31;34 He would say sometimes he would be uncomfortable but didn't really have a problem with it. Problem because he might have been gay? Yeah. He knew that? He had a suspicion. 14;32;04 Sept. 19th, bring you to that Sunday. Were you on campus the entire day? Yeah, I think. Were you Facebook friends with Dahrun? Yes. You had a webcam? Yes. And you iChatted with Dahrun? Yes. 14;32;37 On the 19th, I think you told us you were in the lounge, by the vending machine. It was at night correct? Yes. And Dahrun tells you that his roommate wants to use the room correct? Yes. 14;33;13 I think you used the word distraught. You thought Dahrun was distraught? Yeah he was just like very I'm not sure hwo to put it. He wasn't very calm about it. He was a little jumpy. Was he angry? No. Concerned? A little bit. Did he appear like he didn't know what to do? Yes. 14;33;52 Did he tell you where he was going to go? Maybe Livingston. They didn't have spare rooms for different students to sleep in if perhaps someone wants to use the room? No. Were students allowed to sleep in the lounge? Sometimes. Sack out for the night in the lounge? Sometime. Dahrun comes up to you and you're by the vending machine, he said it was crazy, scandalous. Why crazy? Only because the guy that came into Tyler's room was older. He was older, significantly maybe older. Maybe not a Rutgers students. 14;35;00 That was your impression of why Dahrun was acting like he was? Yes. Does he say he wants to talk in Molly's room? Yeah in more private. Lot of guys and girl in the lounge? Can't recall. 14:35;25 Did you see Dahrun going from boy to boy or girl to girl talking at the same time? No he was coming to me cause we were getting close as friends. One of the guys Lokesh, did you know him? Yes. Was he there? No. 14;35;45 To get to Molly's room you have to walk down a corridor. And directly across from Molly's room is Dahrun's room correct? Yes. 14;36;07 Nobody listens in to hear if anything is going on do they? No. Tyler was in the room with this significantly older man correct? Yes. When you saw Dahrun in the lounge did he have a towel? No not in the lounge. Was he in need of a shower? Yes. I remember in Molly's room he had his shower basket ready. You go into Molly's room and the 3 of you are alone? Yes. They're talking to you about what they observed correct? Yes. 14;37:01 And you learn that they went into Molly's room and Molly and Dahrun activated this automatic chat to see what was going on correct? Yes. And they were trying to explain to you how they did it correct? Yes. Who was doing the talking? More Dahrun than Molly. Before this, did you know Dahrun had this feature where it automatically accepts a video chat? No. 14;37;41 Did he ever talk to you about his computer he programmed with the name Jarvis? No. Were you ever in his room when he activated his computer and it started talking to him in a British accent? No. 14:38;02 You're in the room with Molly and they asked you if you also wanted to see what was going on between Tyler and this man? And you said no. I did not want to be a part of it. You were interested because it was scandalous? Yes. Nobody forced you to see it did they? No. Dahrun left? He left and I was like okay I'm going to leave. He brought me in there and then we talked about it and then he was like ok I'm going to take a shower now. And I was like oaky then I'm going to leave too. 14;38;56 You saw him leave the room? Yes. And when he left he had a shower basket with him? Yes. A shower basket contains shampoo and soap. 14;36;16 Something you find in your room. No public shower baskets? Correct. You take from your room and put back in your room? Yes. Towel and a change of clothes? Yes. I don't know. When he walks out what's your opinion of where he's going to go? To the shower. 14;39;54 When he's done with the shower where do you think he was going? Back to his room. Do you know what he was going to do if his room was still closed? I would assume to go back to Molly's. Fair enough. 14;40;13 When you walk out of Molly's room, Molly is also left in the room alone? Yes. You told us you're now going back to the lounge? To my friend Kevin's room in the opposite wing. My wing. Somewhere you come across these 3 girls who want to go to Molly's room, true? Yes. 14;40;42 The only way you can get from Molly's room to your wing, you have to walk through the lounge? True. Where do you run into these girls? My wing. 14;41;09 These girls are Rashne, Kasenya, and Cassie and another girl. Yes. 14;41;38 How do you know that what they want to do is go to Molly's room? They talked to me about it. They talked to you about what? The situation. 14;41;57 They talked to you about the situation with Tyler? Yeah. Which of these 4 girls is doing the talking? I can't remember. Based upon what they tell you, you decide to show them where Molly's room is? They know where Molly's room is because Cassie is the roommate to Molly. So why did they need you? I was jus talking with them about it. 14;42;27 So you walk with four girls through the lounge to the other wing talking to them about the situation with Tyler? I want to say it was more of we talked about it and then I walked into the room and then we went our separate ways. 14;43;04 Did you tell us during the other examination that you walked back over with these girls to Molly's room because they were talking about looking at the video also? I think they wanted more clarification about what was going on. Because Dahrun was not present. They did not know what was actually going on. So the jury knows, Dahrun was in the shower while you were meeting the girls and walking with them from one room to the other? Um I can't say that the times match up so I'm not going to say he was in the shower so I couldn't know if he was in the shower cause he wasn't with me. 14;43;46 You bring the girls to Molly's room? Yes. Do you go in? I don't think so. I think we were talking with the door open and then I left. When you left, Dahrun is not there? True. The girls are there alone without Dahrun? True. You don't know what happened? No. You go back out the lounge and hang out with Vishal? Yes. He lives in the dorm? Yes. 14;44;44 You stay with Vishal and then go back to your room? Yeah. I think under direct examination that at some point you ran into Dahrun in the lounge again and he said he didn't know where to go? 14;45;22 Whose Kevin Spencer? My friend. Did you see him that night? Yeah in his room. When were you in his room? Most of the night. But under direct examination Ms. McClure was asking where you were going you told us all this stuff but never told us about Kevin Spencer, why? He did. 14:46;05 When did you go to Kevin Spencer's room? After I was with Molly and Dahrun. 14;46;15 After you left Dahrun? Yes. But you told us you went to the wing and then went back to Molly's room? I don't think the times match up. I went to Kevin Spencer's room and hung out with him and then ran into the girls. 14;46;52 At some point you give a statement to an investigators, and it was a statement you gave to them and they taped it? Yes. They transcribed it? Yes. 14;47;45 After you were given that transcript did he tel you to read it? Yes. When did you get it? I don't know. Maybe December when I got the subpoena. Were you told that if there was a mistake you should tell the prosecutor? Yes. But you didn't tell anyone there was a mistake? There was only mistake. I said in the statement that he was coming back from the Ultimate Frisbee practice but he was actually going to it because Ultimate Frisbee doesn't start until 9. Who did you tell? The lawyers there. 14:48:37 SIDEBAR 15:11:50 15:13: DEFENSE: IS THAT YOUR STATEMENT ALVIN: YES DEFENSE 15:13:25: ON 9/19 DID YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER CONVERSATIONS WITH DAHRUN ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN HIS ROOM AFTER HE TOOK A SHOWER ALVIN: NO DEFENSE: PG 7 LINE 17.

Please help us follow the court's order to NOT SHOW any jurors on air. From: Lai, Yvonne Sent: Friday, February 24, 2012 8:47 AM To: #ABCTV News Video Cc: Crudele, Mark; Soloway, Lisa; Koenigs, Michael; Loyd, Beth; Schwartz, Susan Subject: Rutgers Trial Pool Cam / RS 5110 RS 5110 8:45am - 6pm ET In house channel: 110 Details: Opening statements start at 9am, list of witnesses expected to be called today by the prosecution below. Location: Middlesex County Courthouse, New Brunswick, NJ Pool source: In Session From: Koenigs, Michael Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2012 11:32 PM Subject: Witnesses expected to testify tomorrow Below is a list summarizing the witnesses whom the prosecution plans to call after opening statements tomorrow. 1. William O'Brien, Rutgers University He is currently the Associate Director of Administration and Graduate Students at Rutgers and will likely testify on the immediate reaction of the school to Clementi's complaint when he filed to change roommates. O'Brien deals with resident life and may have dealt with Clementi directly. 2. Cassandra Cicco, 108 Willowbrook Court, Paramus, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://1> Cassandra Cicco was one of two female students present when Molly Wei tried to viewed Clementi's encounter on the laptop webcam (while Ravi was not present). Cicco told the State that she witnessed Ravi telling Molly Wei to tell friends not to call his webcam (according to defense's Motion to Dismiss). 3. Pooja Kolluri, 7 Dennison Drive, East Windsor, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://2> Another female Rutgers student who was close with Wei. She described Wei to one reporter as "She was really a very happy person." Pooja Kolluri told investigators that she never heard Ravi say anything negative about homosexuals. 4. Scott Xu, 23 Springhouse Circle, Manalapan, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://3> Scott Xu, a friend of Defendant since the seventh grade, said that he has never had any problem with anyone being gay. He attended Windsor-Plainsboro North high school with Ravi, and competed on the Track & field team. Scott is also active on Twitter: 5. Alvin Artha: 4 Eaton Court, West Windsor, NJ <x-apple-data-detectors://4> Alvin Artha has also know Ravi since high school and told the State that Ravi was not homophobic. Ravi did tell Artha about the webcam incident. After leaving Wei's room, he spoke to other friends in the lounge, including Artha. According to the Motion to Dismiss, he brought Artha back to Wei's room and told him what they had seen. They did not access the webcam. Ravi then left again to take his shower. While Ravi was gone, Wei invited some girlfriends (likely Pooja and Cassandra) to her room . Wei turned on the iChat a second time, without Ravi present . This time, the girls saw T .C . and M .B . with their shirts off, and then again shut it off after a few seconds . A prosecutor told jurors Friday that it was no mistake that a Rutgers student used a webcam to spy on his roommate's intimate encounter with another man. "The defendant's acts were deliberately planned to invade Tyler's privacy," First Assistant Middlesex County Prosecutor Julia McClure told jurors to open the hate crime trial of Dharun Ravi, "and to deprive him of his dignity." "They were planned to expose Tyler Clementi's sexual orientation and they were planned to expose Tyler Clementi's private sexual activity," she said. Nineteen-year-old Ravi faces 15 criminal charges, including invasion of privacy and bias intimidation, a hate crime punishable by up to 10 years in state prison. The case spurred a national conversation about how young gays are treated when news of it broke in September 2010 after Ravi's roommate, Tyler Clementi, committed suicide. In her half-hour opening statement, McClure did not mention Clementi's suicide. Ravi's lawyer was expected to give his opening statement later Friday morning, likely saying that Ravi meant no harm. That's a position McClure tried to dispel preventatively. "The defendant's acts were not a prank, they were not an accident and they were not a mistake," she said. "They were mean-spirited, they were malicious and they were criminal." She also said that Ravi began telling friends that he was unhappy he'd have a gay roommate soon after he received his Rutgers housing assignment in August 2010.
