Nope - no ignorance here. Just willingness to listen to both sides.

YOUR ORIGINAL POST!

"It sounds like something ugly happened that night, and because of the accuser's occupation and unsavory past, some very sick young men may get away with an anwful crime.

There is no way to know for sure, but there is a lot of information that paints these young men and the events of that night in a less-than-positive light. I hope I'm wrong - but we don't know enough to convict OR exonerate these young men yet. Ditto the accuser.

Sure sounds like you are keeping an open mind.

Can the City of Durham be sued by the defendants? I would think this information would help. What charges? False arrest, defamation of character, ???? Does the case have to go to trial before that can happen? If it's just dropped, are they out of luck, or might they still have some recourse?

"The other side" is deserting.

You are not listening to both sides, you are condemning the Duke students.

Clearly you feel that since they hired a stripper they must be guilty because your boys would never ever ever.

I am one of the neutral parties here as well. And I also read other articles. One article, stated the father talked to the press and said she was 'violated with an object'. IMHO, he should keep his mouth shut(if it did come from her father?). The medical report goes into details that the public has no access to. Before anyone says it--No,I dont think she used a rigid object on herself. Everyone knows that can cause damage...Keep in mind she was told it would be a group of five men.I am also not sure how much to believe what comes from the media. I have the wait and see attitude.
