A onetime student at the University of Hartford in the United States has reportedly been arrested after she boasted about deliberately contaminating her Jamaican roommate’s living area in a most disgusting manner on social media.  

The student, 18-year-old Brianna Rae Brochu now faces charges of third-degree criminal mischief, second-degree breach of peace and intimidation based on bigotry or bias  according to the Hartford Courant.

While speaking with Fox 61, the Jamaican student Chennel Rowe said “I kind of felt unwanted and she was giving off vibes.”

“She asked me if I was moving out and I simply said ‘Yup’ and she made a face and said ‘OK’ and then I saw her pick up her phone and automatically start texting,” Rowe also said.

  

Authorities have since revealed that Brochu posted messages to Instagram celebrating her successful efforts to get rid of her “Jamaican Barbie”.

“Finally did it your girl got rid of her roommate!! After 1 1/2 months of spitting in her coconut oil, putting moldy clam dip in her lotions, rubbing used tampons [on] her backpack, putting her toothbrush places where the sun doesn’t shine and so much more I can finally say goodbye Jamaican Barbie,” Brochu wrote in the caption of photos posted to Instagram.


The University of Hartford released the following statement:

“Dear University of Hartford Community,

I am writing to provide further updates on the deeply disturbing situation involving our students. As of this morning, Brianna Brochu is no longer a student at the University of Hartford. She will not be returning to the institution.

There has been an outpouring of concern for the victim of these acts from across the University and the country. In my meeting with her yesterday, I reiterated my personal commitment to ensuring she has all available personal and academic resources the University can provide.  

As I said yesterday, the University took action immediately once these allegations were brought to our attention. University Public Safety was first notified and responded to this incident at 11:48 p.m. on October 17. The reprehensible conduct of the involved student was not known by the victim or the University until that time. By 1:12 a.m. the West Hartford Police Department was notified and processes for legal and University conduct began. A no-contact order was put into place and the case was turned over to local authorities by 2:16 a.m.

It is clear there is work to be done at our University to ensure that all students feel safe, respected, and valued. The conversations that began with student groups, faculty, and staff yesterday are going to continue and involve our full community. I am dedicated to that mission and will continue to share additional information about opportunities for our path forward in meaningful dialogue and action.

Greg Woodward

President”
