Hi. New poster, but have been following threads with much interest for days. You people rock! Two things:

With respect to how the school has handled this: I support President Brodhead. I think he did what was necessary to protect the other 6000+ students at the school. His response to suspend play was measured; his cancellation of the season was spurred by the email - that in itself was at least as inflamatory to the black community as the allegation was. In all press releases he has professed the need to let due process take it's course. IMO, to do or say otherwise, would not be prudent.

With respect to "injuries" consistent with rape: could a dildo cause such injuries and not leave dna? I know nothing about the escort trade, but might that be something an "escort" would have in their "bag of tricks"? Might account for the missing minutes between when AV left the house and was dumped at Kroger's. BTW, why does a grocery store need a security guard??? Yikes.

While I believe one should never say never, I don't think a rape occurred in that house.

I hope Nifong fries.

Allowing due process to take it's course=innocent til proven guilty, then, so why did he suspend the two boys?

Welcome to Fr, BTW.

I respect your opinion, but disagree about Brodhead. When all of this is proven to be a lie, what then? And what "due process" did he wait on before throwing the entire LAX team under the bus? Some of those team members weren't even in town during the alleged crime. Due process? Scuse me?

Why would you support the President of Duke? He treated the students like they were guilty without a trial?

Are you a current student? If so, can you give us some insight into how this is playing out on campus?

Wih respect to your above question, if so why was the object not found along with the complaining witness's other belongings, makeup bag, purse, etc.? Could it be inserted into the missing white high heel?

I assume a dildo or any foreign object can cause injury. I think there could be DNA transfer from the victim to the dildo, but not the reverse, unless there were pre-existing DNA samples on the dildo.

"BTW, why does a grocery store need a security guard??? Yikes."

Oh, some scum like robbers, rapists, and petty thieves like to target stores, and their clerks, without security at night.

Welcome to FR : )

They don't have security guards in front of your grocery stores? Wow!
