So Bissey had a view of the two woman talking to each other at the rear of the house before going inside.
He also overheard conversations and saw the incident in which the two women drove away.
One would think then that Bissey is likely to have seen whatever happened at the rear of the house with the AV on the back porch, falling down, passing out and being carried to the car.
In which case he would be a key witness for the defense that the AV did not in fact re-enter the house when she went back for her shoe, and therefore was not raped in the bathroom after 12:30.
The case as to whether any rape could have occurred at all will then come down to whether Kim will testify that she was indeed with the AV in the bathroom during the earlier time, 12:04 to 12:30, and whether the defense has photos or video establishing that the two women went into the bathroom together. (And what cellphone records of the two women show.)
This is the best avenue for the defense to go to try to clear all the guys' names.
Bissey doesn't like the lax guys. He's going to color his testimony in favor of the prosecution.
Here's an earlier account from Bissey:
JASON BISSEY, LIVES NEXT DOOR TO ALLEGED CRIME SCENE: I noticed a car drive up and two young women get out, met with the gentleman and then walked back to the back of the house. Two young women, one of them dressed in a short skirt and high heels, and the other woman was dressed a little more conservatively spoke with the gentleman outside of this door here briefly, and then at this point, all of the young men were inside. They spoke amongst themselves for about five minutes or so and then entered the house.
And at that point, I went inside to take a shower. And when I came out, this entire alley was full of men kind of yelling, and I overheard a lot of talk about getting money back and the money they'd spent or whatever. And the young women were back in the car in front, and one of the young men was leaning into the driver's side door, speaking with her. But at that point, the situation seemed to calm down a little bit, and they were able, I guess, to convince one of the girls to go back inside.
And that's at the point where I overheard her talking about going back and getting her shoe. So the young ladies went back into the house, and at that point, nobody was out in the alley. The situation seemed pretty calm. And I was back in the house, just kind of hanging out, checking my e-mail and stuff, and I overheard the situation starting to boil up again outside.
And at that point, the young women were coming back out of the house, getting into the car and driving away. And there were a lot of young men running this way, towards Duke's east campus. And that's the point, when the girls were driving off, that I overheard the racial slur. One of the young men yelled, Hey, "expletive," thank your grandpa for my nice cotton shirt.
And within two minutes, everything was totally dispersed, everybody was gone, and the police showed up shortly thereafter.
