DURHAM, N.C. - The attorney for one of two Duke lacrosse players charged with raping a stripper demanded on Monday that prosecutors turn over the accuser’s medical, legal and education records for use in attacking her credibility.

Kirk Osborn, who represents player Reade Seligmann, said the material will provide “rich sources of information for impeaching the complaining witnesses.”

Osborn also asked a judge to hold a pretrial hearing to “determine if the complaining witness is even credible enough to provide reliable testimony.”

SHARPTON CALLS FOR JUSTICE, WEEK OF APRIL 20-26, 2006

He added that it would be a greater injustice to her if the community did not stand up not only to defend her, but help her during these dark days.

“Even if she was just a dancer and a stripper, she was doing a legal service, though one may question it from their own personal view,” Sharpton said Sunday by phone from Atlanta, regarding how the national media has negatively portrayed her. “We do not see this done when the shoe is the other way around.”

“This whole media destruction of this girl’s character is something that cannot, and should not be tolerated.

We’ve seen this before in cases all over this country,” Sharpton said, later adding, “This is characteristically done by the white media.”

“This in itself is racist.”

Didn't catch his name either, flipping w/ the NBA game. Apparently a local familiar with the terrain.

That segment would have been a lot better if they had driven directly from Buchanan to Kroger and timed the drive.

The cabbie has to have his time off as to when he returned. He heard the girl arguing with the players..She said, I'm calling the cops you dumb.....and she did--they all left. Dukie07 said if the cab driver left eden's 2c @12:42 after dropping Reade and went straight to 610, it would take less than 10 minutes...that makes sense.

Greta, at the beginning of her show tonight, stated that NiFong said Crystal was given a date rape drug and he has proof.

Where did she get that?

I laughed when I saw that. He could not find the correct words to spew from that motor mouth.

Did you all catch Susan Filan (before the Newsweek reporter) saying that she doesn't think this case will go to trial because Crystal will be overwhelmed and will not testify?

And how does he prove that she was GIVEN a date rape drug and that the drug was not self-ingested?

Unless I am mistaken, when Rita first had that cab driver on, we discussed that very night that he had to be wrong.

Did you hear the mayor of one of the towns those boys live in say something like, "When this case is over, we're going to set about getting their reputations back."

They are going to rue the day they messed with these people.
