As a matter of fact, that works well with the cabbie's story of 20 guys outside.

Agree 100%. These were not high-class, professional strippers. They were the black version of trailer trash. Both were too old, too heavy, not pretty enough (well, I haven't seen Mangum's face, so maybe she is), and neither exhibit a lady-like or particularly feminine demeanor. I doubt if either one has ever had any professional dance training, either. I seriously doubt that these women were what they had in mind when they plunked out $800 for two hours of entertainment. They're basically a little better than street women, but not high-class material at all.

I noticed that, too, and have wondered if the Jewish-sounding name was a factor in choosing him, or if wealth was the only driving factor.

I think they were so bad Reade immediately called his girlfriend. What 20 year old calls his girlfriend if attracted to someone else???

Very interesting document there, where the police question the credibility of the DA's witness. Whomever wrote it might end up a defense hostile witeness?

BTW, to show you and everyone how outrageous the IDs were, I read a Rex Stout, ie Nero Wolfe, novel over the weekend, "The Golden Spiders." In the concluding chapter Wolfe brings in various suspects to have a witness ID the muderer and in every other chair is a plain clothes police officer. THE COPYRIGHT ON THE NOVEL IS 1953. Yes Nifong's weak strategy to get an ID was know to crime novelist as bad proceedure 53 years ago. Durham certainly should know better than to elect someone that pathetic.

I think the longest call to the GF was 36 seconds, so he apparently wasn't reaching her or else she was doing something or else the call was breaking up and/or "failing" due to location or network problems.

My guess is once the show ended badly Reade called a few people including his girlfriend to see what else was going on that night, and after nothing interesting was going on elsewhere, he decided to call it a night, called a cab, money, food, back to the dorms.

Because she said one had a mustache, which means it wasn't a Duke player.

She's having to admit to Hannity that the defense evidence is "compelling."
