he can expect some unwelcome publicity to be shined under the rock he lives under.

I can imagine the the "local" lawyers have enough contacts from their pro bono work or otherwise to know just about everything there is to know about the AV and her associates.

Who else do criminal lawyers work with for the most part besides criminals.... duH......

If her kids were at her parents house and dad is retired, what was the big deal about checking on the kids at 2:00AM and then again at 7:00AM... If she called her "driver" to go pick up her kids why couldn't she just call her folks and check on them herself? Who would have someone "that doesn't know her that well" go pick up her kids. What was he going to do with them? And what was anyone going to do at 2:00AM if they drove by "to check the young uns"?

I think the best explanation for Sgt. Shelton requesting the unit to check on her children is that by 2AM, CGM was in full victim mode. She realized she was headed to Durham Access and started pleading with the cop that she had children at home.

As for having her "driver" pick up her kids at 7AM, I haven't any idea. Perhaps she didn't want her father to know, but doesn't her father live at Charles Street? Who did the police talk to when they checked on her children?

From all the stories circulating concerning the night of the party/allegations IIRC the AV's father said he and his son went to DMC in the early morning hours to check on his daughter. They didn't get to see her and no one would tell them why she was there so they went home. If the AV assumed she would be done by 1:30 or so, she might have told her parents she would pick up the children and take them home when she was done (I think she lived on Da Vinci Street). That could be the reason why she mentioned her children were at Charles St. When the police got there they naturally informed her father that she was at DMC.

The next day would be a school day (I know Duke was out for spring break but most grammar schools let out for spring break around Easter) so maybe she wanted the "driver" to pick up her children so they could still go to school.

I don't think we are hearing the whole story (or the truth) from any of the people on the AV's side of this case.
