DURHAM, N.C. - The attorney for one of two Duke lacrosse players charged with raping a stripper demanded on Monday that prosecutors turn over the accuser’s medical, legal and education records for use in attacking her credibility.
Kirk Osborn, who represents player Reade Seligmann, said the material will provide “rich sources of information for impeaching the complaining witnesses.”
Osborn also asked a judge to hold a pretrial hearing to “determine if the complaining witness is even credible enough to provide reliable testimony.”

My take was the RevAl was saying that stripping was just like any other service in the world, including "legal". He said she was performing a "legal" service. I know he probably meant it al la Rosa Parks or somesuch; but I don't think he's aware of how much NOT like Rosa Parks, Crystal is, and what she does.
I agree--there was a ton in there. We were all light years ahead of Rita, Dan, Greta and BOR combined.
A good freeper got into it with someone but I don't know who the someone was. And there were great links on that thread; it's a shame it got pulled.
I think the Duke players will file civil suits against both strippers, not for money, but as a way to help clear their names. They need to question Kim and Crystal under oath.
I live next to Detroit. I saw "Mother" Parks years ago.
Crystal is no Rosa Parks.
I asked the other night, no one knew.
Here in GA once someone makes a complaint of this type and files charges it can not be withdrawn by the victim. It is a recent law, just a few years old. Do you know if NC has the same type of law?
No way! Rita accused RS's dad of paying off the cabbie??
What a pathetic, breathless twit she is!
_______________
Yes, she asked the cabby that when interviewing him tonight.
Do you mean the back and forth about date rape drugs earlier in the day?
Heck! I just scrolled through that nonsense. There was a lot of good stuff on that thread. The moderator should have just deleted the posts instead of pulling the whole thread.
MOO (I don't wanna get deleted.)
We had tons of links on there. No warning...no nothing? Just gone....
I saw in the local NY news Rev Al is setting up a protest in NY ( I think it was for a union) My bet is he stays as far from Durham as possible...Tawana was not THAT long ago..especially considering he got sued big for that one.
We just hunt and peck on the Internet until we find Our Missing One Shoe. (Left foot had to be misssing, duh.. as in "My Left Platform Stiletto).
I don't think it can be withdrawn anywhere by the complainant (Crystal). She is not a party in the suit. She is a witness for the prosecution. The State is the party.

Yeah, it is a pity. It was a good thread.
ROFL
MOO!
I accidently called the lovely Crystal a skank over there..thank goodness for "edit"!!
LOL
Well, I know I added to the "fun" with the other poster, but I really don't think I did or said anything worthy of being called a flame war.
If you all think I did, I apologise.
There was a post with a spinning flashing graphic that was funny to me, but may have been offensive to some. I do not remember who posted it.
Glad someone caught that joke. LOL!
Thank goodness you didn't call her Crystal or they'd be calling you banned.
True, just gone. The mods will usually post warnings but not this time.
everyone who was on the thread has every 50-post page they viewed stored in "history"....I have them up until 7:25pm, next time I looked in and refreshed it had been zapped.
Thank you....
Did anyone save the famous post #89? Or 86...or 80 something that had all the charges against Kim?
