Tension high in Duke caseN.C. stripper hides as TV shows pics

The victim, a single mom who turned to exotic dancing to support her two kids, attends North Carolina Central University, a mostly black college in Durham.

She plans to keep a low profile until the students go on trial to avoid inflaming tensions in the black community, where opinion is running heavily against the privileged students.

One of the most hurtful things for the woman about the media circus surrounding the case, the cousin said, is the tendency to assume the worst about her because she is a stripper.

"She's a victim and she's a human being," the cousin said. "Her occupation couldn't justify that a crime like this was committed."

I think that DA has a thing for feet.

There's absolutely no evidence these kids would want any 'mementos' from either of these two women.

If the DA is in that mindset, we have a problem. A serious problem.

If one of the ladies on the thread can identify where to buy a shoe like that I'd be happy to chip in to buy a pair for Nifong to have for his very own. Anyone know his shoe size?

I meant as she was coming down the stairs, wearing one white shoe (12:30)--there is someething white against her body--I thought that was the other shoe.

Howlin is right - the DA is truly that dumb.

The stripper's case is falling apart at a rapid rate. Nifong would have a better case against Ted Kennedy doing the deed at that house right now....

Look directly below the shoe. It looks as if the image is cropped and just directly below the show looks as if it could be what's left of the stripper's body after the cropping. IMO, of course.

Ya ever spent time talking to the hundreds of thousands of men whose wives filed for divorce under "no fault laws", and find themselves charged as "child molestors", hit with heavy garnishments for child support which appears on their permanent records making their "employment" opportunities dwindled. How about the men being forced to raise children that aren't theirs?

I didn't do any of that.

Ya ever spent time talking to the hundreds of thousands of men

I don't talk to many men, but I read. Some get really raked over the coals. My son got burned pretty bad. I'm not that kind of a person even if I have been ill-treated. I don't get even either although I could if I chose to about some things. I stick up for them, too. Very few have ever stuck up for me.

We each have our crosses to bear.

Didn't say we didn't. My life is pretty much over. I'm thinking of younger people struggling with some of this. I do tend to stick up for the underdog; maybe they don't deserve it. I don't know. Some people do deserve a helping hand. Some people need tough love. It's hard to know sometimes.

What's your point?

Only that jobs that paid pretty well with benefits that lower IQ people could do are mostly gone now where I live anyway. That was my only point.

"What if she isn't lying"

Too many damn coincidences. Just too many

You know what if I reported a serious crime (a real crime) to the Police and then lied about the amount of money stolen from me, lied about calling 911, lied about how the rape happened, and I complained about being called terrible names when I was using similar types of names in the exchange - I wouldn't expect to be believed by a DA or a Jury.

Simple as that.

I believe Seligman's family is already preparing counter suits against the hooker and other players. The best defense is a ruthless offense.

I hope the entire team will file suir and take Durham, the hooker, and Duke to the mat.

At this point it is irrelevant who lied.

For someone so damned concerned with morality, I find your statement insinuating who lied not being important to be rather odd.

Kids from ORU would come across town to party hearty. Always afraid they'd be recognized....

(I thought we had all the dumb DA(s) here on the West Coast)

I think we can look forward to even more outrageous conduct from Nifong in the future

The stories may vary some but I don't think anyone will tell that to the DA, Peach.

I think the AV showed up completely out of it, went into the bathroom to get ready to dance, lost four press-on nails, came out and attempted to perform, fell down and lost her shoe, end of dance and back into the bathroom.

OMG! You've managed to find the one pair of shoes even uglier than Mangum's. Er... how did you know where to find them? : )

That looks more like a tabletop to me, as long as we're guessing. :-)

I don't think the DA told these guys to drink and hire strippers. It was their own poor judgment. Of course that doesn't mean any of them raped her - just that it is possible.

She's 27 or 28, been in the Navy, college student and the best she can get is being a stripper? I doubt it.

I would make an exception for her.
