This woman claimed she was gang raped by three men vaginally, anally and orally with no condoms for a half hour while she struggled and scratched them with her fingernails and they almost strangled her to death. Use your common sense, under those circumstances it is almost impossible for there to be none of the attacker's DNA either in her, on her, her clothes or under her fingernails.
She comes to the party beaten and bruised and without an enforcer.
She has no ride home, so she gets one from the other dancer Kim. She never told the other dancer Kim that she was attacked in any way that evening.
At Duke Hospital she never told the nurse or doctor anything about being attacked by Duke students.
She doesn't report the Duke students to the police until 30 hours after the event, after she has had a chance to talk to her "boyfriend." Think the boyfriend may be the missing link here for multiple parts of the storyline?
While I agree this is news I don't think its breaking news.
I have a feeling that someone grabbed some titty, and really pissed the chick off. At that point, she went over the top and screamed rape. The black community rallied behind her, thus making it hard for her to back down and admit she was not raped, but just grabbed.
Now, the prosecutor is in a corner. He can't let the guys walk away without any punishment, but can't really charge the guy(s) with rape because it didn't happen.
So the charge is reduced to "sexual assault" and driven forward.
And Al Sharpton arrives on Easter Sunday to speak at a rally and stir the pot.
It's really not necessary to misrepresent the various claims to make a case on behalf of the players.
