I heard Stuart Taylor (liberal atty and pundit) on Bill Bennett's radio show yesterday and he said that the defense had exculpatory evidence on the defendants and that Nifong wouldn't even look at it.
The committee (led by a Civil Right's activist) says the response was bungled because too many White Males were involved (in Duke Leadership)
The Accuser should've been believed by the Police (Huh?)
The Race of the victim should've been conveyed to the Duke Leadership (ostensibly to ensure it would be handled Urgently - Rapes of White women - no need for Urgency)
Apparently the committee feels that in case where the victim is a black woman and the suspects are White men - there should be a rush to judgement. In most case similar committees advocate getting all the facts and carefully considering all evidence. NOT HERE - Believe her Immediately and take punitive action immediately based on the race of the victim.
Are these familiar with any of the principles this country was founded on?
It's the truth. We here on FR had our jaws dropped onto the keyboards when this happened. Nifong refused to look at the evidence.
