What we don?t know is why Ravi acted so badly. In the prosecution?s version of the story, he is a criminal gay-basher. In the defense?s version, he is stupid and immature, a newbie freshman reacting to the ?shocking experience? of his gay roommate?s hook-up with a ?scruffy and homeless-looking and suspicious-looking? date. Not helpful for the defense was the testimony of M.B., the man in question, who was calm, clean cut, and entirely unsuspicious seeming on the stand (though at 30, M.B. was significantly older than Ravi and his friends). Ravi?s friends testified that he didn?t regularly make homophobic statements, but one student said he seemed ?uncomfortable? about gay people, and before M.B.?s return trip to the dorm, Ravi texted about wanting to ?keep the gays away.?
