Lawyers proclaim innocence of student charged over sex tape suicide

Lawyers for one of the two US University students accused of secretly webcasting the sex life of a fellow freshman who later committed suicide said their client is innocent.

Prosecutors charged Molly Wei and fellow Rutgers University freshman Dharun Ravi, both 18, with invasion of privacy for allegedly using a webcam to broadcast the encounter between Ravi’s roommate, 18-year-old freshman Tyler Clementi, and a man who has not been identified. Both of the students live in New Jersey.
