Chalmers' challenge
BY RICHARD HART
Durhamites have a fatalistic attitude toward their police department. They don't expect much–and with some reason. The department's crime-solving rate has improved to around 17 percent from a low of 5 percent, but still has a long way to go. And residents have reason to be outraged when it takes investigators six months to identify an alleged serial rapist because no one knew they could ask the state laboratory to speed up DNA tests--allowing the rapes to continue.

Durham Police Officers to Take a Skydive Against Sexual Assault
Durham Crisis Response Center, Operation Freefall Seek Monetary Pledges
Sounds like the MIA Chief Chalmers may have once been falsely accused by his wife of domestic violence. Hmmm...
Then there is the false accuser's many past charges against people - her rapers in 1993, her husband in 1998, her babies' daddy for support, the nursing home where she worked briefly, and perhaps more unknown.
I wonder if making accusations and filing charges is commonplace in that community, and that's why Kim acted like what the players are now facing is no big deal, simply something they should "brush off, sit back, and relax" over?
