Judge Napolitano on Fox TV yesterday was almost apoplectic about the case. Insisted it was political and disgraceful.
The irony is so thick you could stab it with a fork.
Any time anyone in the MSM says anything about the defendants, at least one of the following words is mentioned: "privileged," "elite," "white" (because, y'know, that matters), "exclusive." Hear that, kids? We aren't supposed to assume anything bad about this woman based on her profession. But speculate away on the white males. After all, they're white, male, privileged, elite lacrosse players attending an exclusive university. They obviously raped this woman because they thought she was their slave. Just ask Jesse Jackson.
Don't expect the accuser's occupation to come up at trial unless she brings it up. The defense is case-in-chief, and it revolves around the assertion that the defendants simply weren't there when the alleged attack occurred. The defense won't need to cross-examine the alleged victim. The only time that ever really needs to occur in a rape case is if the defense's case revolves around consent, which it doesn't here. The defense will just be a matter of calling witnesses to authenticate documents showing that the defendants were elsewhere. That's actually a very calm case to run.
Do her children know what mommy does for a living?
There are no good guys or gals in this story. It's a classic tale of Western hedonism. At the very best, the accused have shown themselves to be dissipated college boys who thought it was a good idea to have a stripper at their drinking party. At the very best, the accuser has shown herself to be a skank who accepts money in exchange for her human dignity.
Whatever they learn in college, it isn't common sense!
On O'Reilly it was also mentioned that most of the players had short sleeves and thus DNA should have been under the fingernails. Seemed at least some fiber evidence also if she fought them off the way the DA claims she did.
Let's see, she travels to men's houses to strip, dance and who knows what else. She takes money for this 'service'. And on top of that she's performing her services for a bunch of drunk and horney college kids. One doesn't have to ASSUME the worst, she's is the worst!

I bet they do now.

No, white = guilty. Welcome to the racism of the left...
"I wonder if he is paying child support."
I doubt it, because he said on the telephone/TV interview that they are not HIS lids.
Does anybody remember when unwed mothers became single Moms?
Does she have any history of drug use ?
What about any past criminal records ?
Is she collecting child support ,and/or welfare ?
Student loans ?
Do you believe her story?
And they are (or their parents) are paying a lot of money to attend Duke. I'm beginning to think our colleges and universities are a great waste of money.
When "shame" became an obsolete word.
Or horny young men.
Extremely biased article. From where I sit, it appears that there's an 80+% chance the Duke students are the victims here.
