Jane and Joseph Clementi haven't decided whether Rutgers University was at fault in son Tyler's suicide, but they've filed notice protecting their right to sue just in case. It reads in part: "It appears Rutgers University failed to put in place policies that would have prevented" the online posting of Clementi's gay encounter. The notice was filed just before a 90-day deadline; the Clementis must now wait at least six months to file suit, reports the AP.
Rutgers fired back, denying responsibility: "We at the university share the family's sense of loss of their son, who was a member of our community," said a spokesman. "We also recognize that a grieving family may question whether someone or some institution could somehow have responsibility for their son's death. While the university understands this reaction, the university is not responsible for Tyler Clementi's suicide."
