I was stupid, but didn't cause roommate's death: Dharun Ravi

Former Rutgers New Jersey State University student Dharun Ravi, 20, told ABC's "20/20" that he did some stupid things, but Tyler Clementi, who killed himself by leaping off the George Washington Bridge, had other problems."Even though I wasn't the one who caused him to jump off the bridge, I did do things wrong and I was stupid about a lot of stuff," Ravi told the news show.The former computer science student was convicted on 15 counts of invasion of privacy, bias intimidation and other crimes after using a webcam to watch Clementi's sexual encounter with another man in their dorm room. Ravi said he did some soul-searching after Clementi's death, but concluded it wasn't his fault.[caption id="attachment_253524" align="alignleft" width="380" caption="Dharun Ravi was sentenced to ten years in prison.

"I want the Clementis to know I had no problem with their son. I didn't hate Tyler and I know he was OK with me."IANS
