Women like this one make it more difficult for real rape victims to find justice.

Why are we hearing about this now, instead of early on?

The report said Duke's response was also limited by its lack of diversity in senior management; Brodhead and his core advisers are almost all white men.

The case may have been handled better "if a wide array of life histories and perspectives had been brought to bear on what were sensitive and highly charges issues," the report said.

Somebody has been watching way too much Oprah.

Of course the Racist Panthers still believe the stripper. Everybody knows Blacks never lie.

This woman may be suffering from bi-polar disease with a touch of paranoia. Some people love being the victim.

The DA got what he wanted...reelection.
The Media got what they wanted...a story about how privileged white kids destroy the lives of underprivileged minorities.
The PC group worked their magic...the Duke Lacrosse team seasons canceled and their reputation in the gutter.
And Jesse Jackson got his cameo helping the disenfranchised victim.
Barf...I hope they hang all the guilty parties.

Remember earlier this evening I said the police have turned on the DA because he took over? Now they are leaking EVERYTHING and this case is (or should be) OVER.

I hope the students once they are clear can somehow sue the DA for malicious prosecution, especially the one student who has lock tight alibi of photos and receipts proving that he was not there at the time.

I'm not so sure this will just go away. Nifong is more or less committed to going forward with it, and the Grand Jury has indicted the three who were charged.

So, what are the chances it will be dropped without a trial? And what are the chances that there will be a fair trial?

It's a disgusting mess. And the pathetic thing is that evidently the two other candidates for DA were even worse than Nifong.

Remember the McMartin child-molestation case in California, decades ago?

The prosecutors manipulated the kids so deftly that their imaginations went absolutely wild: eventually, they were claiming they were raped by scissors, that an evil doll had raped them, that they had donned robes, descended into a magic chamber where they were made to rip the wings off birds....

Counselors also withheld water from thristy kids in "interviews" (interrogations), and later permitted them to slake their thirst after they had given them what they were after.

Some of the minutes of these interrogations are either horrifying, or completely hilarious, it's hard to decide which.

THAT'S THE POWER OF THE STATE.

I'll say it and I don't care if I get slammed for it. The minute I heard the word rape and stripper in the same sentence, I figured it was BS. I was right.

Too many people (even here on FR) were too quick to believe this story. It should have been looked at skeptically from the start.

I wonder if the "proper" jury panel will be called up? If so these kids are toast.
