The exotic dancer who accused members of the Duke University lacrosse team of raping her at a party may have been slipped a date-rape drug, according to an interview with the second dancer in the May 1 issue of Newsweek that appeared on stands today.
Newsweek also reported that a defense attorney said some DNA evidence had been found under the accuser's fingernails, but that the first round of DNA testing - which did not incriminate any of the 46 players swabbed - was inconclusive about identity. Results from a second round of tests are expected this week.
The accuser, a 27-year-old black college student and mother, said she was raped and beaten by white students on March 13 after performing for them at a house party. Two lacrosse team members, Collin Finnerty, 19, of Garden City, and Reade Seligmann, 20, of Essex Fells, N.J., were charged Tuesday. Defense lawyers have maintained their clients' innocence, offering a detailed timeline and time-stamped photos from the party that they say throw the woman's story into doubt.

From what I have read about date-rape drugs, if Crystal was under the influence of such, she would not have been able to remember anything--hence no descriptions of how she was raped (orally, etc.); and also she would have been unable to struggle (as was claimed); nor would she have known how many people raped her. Exactly.

Maybe it wasn't from that particular drink. Maybe she had a "sip" or two before the party.
Remember she also has a DUI on her record (.16). That would not be out of character for her.

Maybe the brainiacs on the lacrosse team designed a special bathroom with expanding walls for special occasions so they'd have plenty of room to put on their magic rubbers and jackets in case she decided to scratch them?
