You may be right, but here OakOak says Abrams says otherwise... Would you please source me someone saying other otherwise?
No, I won't. It's been posted numerous times. Please look for it yourself (I don't remember which all threads it was on) or be patient and wait for it to come up again.
There is an audio tape around here somewhere that was posted just last night that plays the entire dispatch conversation with the responding officers that concludes with their confirming their arrival at DUMC, and that's just one example. I don't remember if it was on this long thread or a separate thread of its own.
Keep in mind that Mangum was taken into custody for drunk in public. The cops don't just release somebody in Mangum's condition and who is in custody to an ordinary civilian, not even a family member. Mangum wasn't competent to be released. The cops have caretaker liability. Instead of taking her to the drunk tank (I'm guessing she passed the breathalyzer), they took her first to Durham Access. She then stated she'd been raped, so they took her to DUMC.
I got that from Yale Galanter and Susan Filan on Abrams.
If they were wrong, it's wrong.
