"There was no DNA found on Mangum to compare anybody else's DNA to."

Actually, there was DNA--her boyfriend's DNA.

So she had sexual contact with another person other than the accused--her boyfriend.

But she did not have sexual contact with any of the players.

Take note, that in over 10 articles and multiple accounts - the cook (from Blinco's) says the Bald Guy was a passenger in the Black truck. The guy that takes off his shirt and tackles him after getting prompted to do by the Bald guy is the Driver. So, Bald Guy and Big Shirtless guy are in the same dark colored Truck.

When the Durham PD explained their investigation - they clearly said that Lee came from one vehicle and Tanner came out of ANOTHER! They had to do this because they are laying the blame for the Bald man actions on one of the other men. This all points to the Bald passenger in that truck getting overlooked - bypassed in this investigation.

The Durham PD / City Council said the report on the Internal Investigation report would be released so that the Public would have full-faith. SEVEN days later - they reversed themselves and said that they would NOT release the report.

But, WHY ?

What Jezebell is trying to say is that lack of DNA does not prove no sexual contact. The cases that you continually post here are cases where someone was very likely raped and in some cases clearly raped, did not know who raped them but IDed someone based on a lineup. The woman was raped by a stranger. She picked out someone and it ended up that she was wrong.

A woman can be raped without DNA evidence being left behind. That is highly highly unlikely in this case because of the rape described by Mangum. But Mangum did not claim stranger rape. Clearly Nifong as he said expected the DNA to reveal who was guitly and absolve the innocent. But Mangum was lying to him in multiple dimensions include that she had not had sex other than being raped recently.

By the time this became clear to Nifong, his job was on the line. So he indicted anyway. Maybe his plan was to drop these charges after winning the election. If so, his miscalculation was that he did not understand that these players would demand vindication not just dropped charges.
