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.

Ain't that the God's truth...
Woo-Hoo
I also don't think that the LAX families are going to sue anyone. They're not going to go through that. They've been through enough and they prolly want this mess over and done with ASAP.
No question they have been wronged.
PING --Howlin
Don't be sure about that. If the case is dropped, the Lax players will still be perceived as guilty, having been tried by the DBM....
<< Megan Kendall is now reporting >>
The interchange with the Kroger security guard was hilarious.
Megyn tries to approach the Kroger guard and ask her something (probably about whether the AV appeared drugged) and the Kroger guard wags her cigarette at Megyn and says "get out of my face!"
Megyn responds with something like "We're not allowed to pay for news."
So the Kroger guard apparently is demanding $$$$ before spilling anything to reporters.
ROFLMAO!!!
I meant the criminal case.
Oh dear me....sure looks like a possibility that the skank has done something like this before....and that the possibility exists that she's been offered some type of deal.
Very, very bad. At the start, an out of control DA who took the case out of the hands of police and rushed to indict without having ANY facts. Talk about a rush to judgment!
Where is everybody getting this? I saw this upthread, but I can't find the source.
(Wouldn't surprise me if she had....)
Now if that isn't the PERFECT song for this case, I don't know what is.
AV's father also said in that interview that the AV never said anything to him about being drugged
I saw that! ROFL
NiKong needs to drop this mess...."Yesterday"
Howlingly funny!!
Where'd you ever get that???
ROFL!!
You win....send it to him, ASAP!
Irreputable harm to individuals, team's season, Lacrosse program, student recruitment, Duke University reputation; Durham race relations......and she WALKS AWAY from it?
Link in post #630.....
Very interesting!
It's the recent Oscar winner for Best Song.
I missed editing out an "n" word. I apologize, hate that word.
