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.
Visions of Mark Hulbert are dancing in my head.
If they did a drug test on her at the ER that would be some good intel...
But I think you got the story covered pretty well there...
Druggie/Stripper/Prostitute gets grabbed by beer drinking dumb 'white boy' college jocks...her boyfriend sees big payoff...
Naturally it's a race baiters dream come true...
