The police report has been released in a bizarre stabbing and suicide at Yale University last spring and it appears they two men were involved in a night of sex when the night went terribly wrong, according to The Week.
The official police report states that freshly graduated Yale University conservative activist Tyler Carlisle and his roommate, undergraduate Alexander Michaud were engaged in a sexual threesome with a female Yale undergraduate when Carlisle became aware of her attentions on Michaud. Carlisle reached for a knife on the nightstand and stabbed Michaud in the neck before jumping out of the ninth floor window falling six loors before landing on the third floor terrace, killing himself, according to the Heavy.
"You could find Tyler Carlisle every Tuesday night at our debates standing up for what he believed in," Yale Political Union President Simon Brewer said, as previously reported by HNGN.. "He was a principled, honorable man and widely respected across the Union."
Carlisle and Michaud both grew up in Manchester, N.H. and were both members of Yale's Party of the Right, the staunch right-wing division of Yale's debating society, according to the Gawker.
Michaud's report to the police, released by the New Haven Police Department states:
"Michaud, [redacted], and Carlisle had all been drinking. The three of them were having sex in the bedroom, and Carlisle started to get jealous of Michaud and [redacted]. Carlisle grabbed a knife that was on the nightstand next to the bed. Carlisle stabbed Michaud in the neck area. Michaud does not remember how he got to the living room. Michaud sat on the chair in the living room and told [redacted] to call 911.[Redacted] grabbed a white t-shirt and held it to Michaud's neck to stop the bleeding. Carlisle then went to the living room and started pacing back and forth, saying "I'm sorry." Carlisle sat on the window sill and said he was going to jump. Michaud did not see Carlisle jump out of the window."
The woman's name is redacted as she was not reported or associated with the case originally. Michaud and the woman involved are both enrolled at Yale at this time.
