And the victim said one of the Durham Cops apologized and said the other Cops that assaulted him were DRUNK.

Well, well. So can we conclude the DA in Raleigh has turned one of the players officers? Is that his smoking gun?

The ironies are piling up!

Ken,

I think that's exactly what happened. Think maybe Gottlieb and Clayton were both in that Black Pickup Truck?

What to do in the Halls of Durham Justice?

Can a White officer accused of acting like this stay in a high position as Supervisor of detectives?

If he is demoted, it will surely affect the case. There's a lot of hand wringing in Durham tonight. A lot of Maalox too.

Racial Intimidation, Drunk Driving, assault, Racial slurs, reckless driving

This racial slur stuff is just getting too convenient..

First Kim says they yelled n...r. at her when she's leaving and tells the same thing to the 911 operator.

And now the cook says the cops told him to f... off n....r..

I do not believe that someone who interacts with blacks as regularly as the Durham cops would drop n-bombs at the drop of a hat...

I also do not think the Lacrosse teammates of a black player whom was possibly at the party would be dropping n-bombs at the strippers...

Bissey claims he heard someone yell out "Thank your Grandpa for my nice cotton shirt".... That's a far cry from dropping the n-bomb...

I'm not saying it doesn't happen but in these two cases it's just too convenient...

Just like the rape claim, the n-bombs have become the "Get out Jail Free" card in the new PC world....

Ironic isn't it, my bet is we'd hear more n-bombs at a rap concert than a clan rally...

Wow. My understanding is that if a police officer attests that a driver was visibly impaired while operating a vehicle, a blood alcohol level may not be necessary. Is that your understanding?

Which begs the question-- Did the Raleigh PD obtain a breathayzer or BAL on the White Durham PD officers (who are alleged to have assaulted a Black cook, and to have used an ugly Racial Slur)?

Don't we have her height from her prior arrest record? I don't remember her being 5'8".

You're the engineer, but my best proportional analysis from her standing at the back door... By measuring a similar screen door at my house, I'd put her in the 63 to 65 inch range...

I could measure the Dibly pics and calculate how tall her head is in relation to her shoulder, but that's too much trouble..

Okay, but one tenet of Justice is that it should be consistent.

If 19 yr old Finnerty is a bad enough person to be banned from Georgetown for his slurs and intimidation - WITHOUT touching anyone - than these people sworn to protect the citizenry should be held to the same standard.

Live by the Sword, Die by the Sword.

YES. Fortunately the media, the D.A., the Durham City Council, and the Judges have all denounced this exact type of behavior and treated it seriously.

They are on record.

It's going to be hard to portray this as some guys letting off steam and just drinking too much.

After all, the boys were the scum of the earth for drinking late and sometimes being rowdy. They were dangerous Hooligans. It warranted a two day trial in Crime-Ridden D.C. when the victim was untouched by the defendant. Then Finnerty was banned.

When you say - maybe the Judge will BAN these policemen from Raleigh then what they did in D.C. really jumps out as being ridiculous.

From the abc local story--

Then he says one of the men took off his shirt and rushed him.

WTH? That sounds a bit psycho to me.

More Durham Corruption alleged in the Police Force !!

I'm officially Pimped-Out; I can't keep up with all the scandals in Durham.

You'd think the Media would detect a pattern here

. . . . . . . . PATHETIC!

Durham's Sheriff's office says there are SIX times the number of Gang-members in Durham than the Durham Police Dept claims.

I have to agree with you...seems to me that the two strippers were more likely to start any trash talk and as for the PO's, I am holding out judgment there, the N&O jumped on it too quick...makes me skeptical...

Of course DPD wants a $60,000 scholarly study on gangs. I imagine DOJ has some grants available.

From your link:

"But Mayor Pro Tem Cora Cole-McFadden wants involvement from N.C. Central University, which has held forums on the gang problem.

"It does not make sense to me to have this kind of project unless NCCU is a part of it, since they've already reached out," she said. "We need to be fair to the community."

I think "fair to community" means grease some palms.

The ABC News story is the most complete I've seen. Several new details (at least to me)--

- Descriptions of 2 of the alleged assailants.

- One of the alleged assailants allegedly threw a punch, missed, and fell down.

- And in an eerie parallel to the Duke case, one of the Durham PD officers was alleged to be Black! He was the one who allegedly apologized for the drunken behavior of his colleagues.

So, she isn't screaming everytime she sees a white dude anymore, I take it. She's also not in a mental hospital getting therapy and a good, long rest after her horrific ordeal.

She's still hookin'.

She hasn't paid diddly toward her restitution of $25k. That's why.

They won't print it. They'll just contact her at her new job and tell her that her slip is showing. We're better off to send it to Drudge and circulate everywhere possible.
