Tension high in Duke caseN.C. stripper hides as TV shows pics

The victim, a single mom who turned to exotic dancing to support her two kids, attends North Carolina Central University, a mostly black college in Durham.

She plans to keep a low profile until the students go on trial to avoid inflaming tensions in the black community, where opinion is running heavily against the privileged students.

One of the most hurtful things for the woman about the media circus surrounding the case, the cousin said, is the tendency to assume the worst about her because she is a stripper.

"She's a victim and she's a human being," the cousin said. "Her occupation couldn't justify that a crime like this was committed."

They don't want Freepers searching the web and discovering anything about "Ms. Anonymity". I don't understand why she is anonymous to start with...the boys aren't.

Anybody can sue for anything.

But the attorneys on this thread have all said it was tough to get any thing. It is my hope and prayer that some cop has a tape of this DA saying he don't care if these subjects are innocent or not.
That would make who ever said that eligible for a prison term for a civil rights violation.

This case and the way it's been handled reminds me of the old snake charmer act.

While that was going, a pick pocket would be working the crowd.

Many of the posters also don't understand the "dynamics" between hookers/strippers and their clients. No matter how much money the client pays, the hooker/stripper wants more. Where things get heated quickly is when the hooker/stripper doesn't get paid or the client isn't happy and wants the money back, or the hooker/stripper manages to steal money out of the wallet of the client. Any attempt to cheat the hooker/stripper, take stolen money back, or get a refund quickly escalates to a very loud, hot, foul mouthed, battle.

This game is about M O N E Y - and visceral straight-razor-ear-biting-eye-gouging-rolling-around-in-the-mud greed rules! The client is a paycheck, nothing more, and nothing or no one better get between the hooker/stripper and her money.

The frat boys thought they got ripped off, and the fight was on!

And there are some very deep pockets to go after them. I'd love to see that English prof at Duke have to spend three years salary defending himself in court. "But I have tenure and that means the academic freedom to say anything I want". Er...no...welcome to the real world where words have consequences.

they would have to run up more legal fees

these are extroadinarily deep pockets..How much would anyone pay to have their good name restored if one is completely innocent. They don't care about her money.

Hint to DA, next time do not pick on rich white kids with cell phones, bank accounts and parents with deep pockets. Next time if you want to force a plea bargain, pick on some dumb white kids that have no money that you can intimidate.

At one point Kim said she was outside and little princess was inside. My suspicion is that she may have known that little princess might be polishing something other than her nails, and wants to conceal that fact.

Someone I don't see their attorneys seeing that way- they would have to run up more legal fees to sue a woman who, if it were found out she was lying, would be unemployable.

Well if you got a lot of money what good is it if everyone thinks your kids are rapist? If you got the money do you want this cloud hanging over your sons head?

Why would they need to cut up the shoe and flush it anyway!

They wouldn't, but if they TRIED, it would mean they were trying to conceal something and Murphy would make sure they were caught. Throwing it in the nearest trashcan would definitely be the best option.

Are you aware of how many very solid and good college professors were BOOTED from their jobs on the mere say-so of a female student crying "harassment"? How about the men in regular jobs being forced to undergo "sensitivity" training, or being passed over on promotions they rightfully earned going to females?

One doesn't have to be around a stripper, or in a risky situation to have FALSE ACCUSATIONS LOBBED against them. A number of men I know won't be alone with children; must always have another witness present "just in case". There's been an epidemic going on in our country of females doing the "false accusation" thing. Clarence Thomas. Robert Bork. Tom Delay. Police Chiefs. Firefighters. Doctors. Dentists. Priests. Fortune 500 guys. Football players. Boxers. Basketball players. Fathers who don't want to be divorced nor parted from their children.

That's an interesting scenario and entirely possible.

There are many reasons. One of them is many black women do better then black men financially, since many black men are either in jail or on parole. It's a tragedy that many black men don't want the many good black women there are. The ironic thing is the out of wedlock birthrate for blacks was MUCH less in the days of Jim Crow than it is now. That said, there are many middle-class black families I see when eating out with my family (nice places for holdiays). One time I was kind of shocked, since I was still a liberal, and thought it odd (since I believed that blacks were still being "held back"). Contrary to what Mr Jackson says, many blacks are doing well. Not all, but it's a much different world from the 50s or 60s.

and i have heard quite a few experts, including Judge Napolitano on Fox, state that the lack of DNA evidence was indeed extremely damaging to the prosecutions case. so you choose to believe the stripper despite the inconsistencies and improbabilities. fine.

I think Kim knows a whole lot more than she's saying...She's already been caught in too many lies to be credible.

It's going to have to be some cop who can really, really prove the DA JUST DID HIS OWN THING in disregard for the law.

Unfortunately, the DA probably only mouthed off in front of the "bad guys" or brown nosers in the department.

I had a friend who was offered the DA assistant job after college. He didn't take it because "You couldn't tell the good guys from the bad guys".

Too many lies....And no one has even mentioned a lie detectors test. Most victims are willing to take the test.

If one of the ladies on the thread can identify where to buy a shoe like that I'd be happy to chip in to buy a pair for Nifong to have for his very own. Anyone know his shoe size?

Fredericks of Hollywood. Ex used to get the catalogue. The sizes went pretty large. Bleeeechhhhhh!
