May 13, 2006 The second round of DNA test results in the Duke University rape investigation show "no conclusive match'' to any lacrosse players, defense attorneys said, but a vaginal swab of the alleged rape victim produced DNA from a "single male source'' a man not on the lacrosse team who did not attend a March 13 party that was the site of the alleged rape.

Defense attorney Joe Chesire declined to identify the mystery man or his connection to the alleged victim, but ABC News' Law and Justice Unit has learned that the unnamed source of the DNA is the alleged victim's "boyfriend," according to her mother.
ABC News is withholding the name of the man because he is apparently not a target of the investigation. Records indicate that Durham, N.C., police gave the "boyfriend'' a cheek swab to collect DNA on May 3, ABC News' Law and Justice Unit has learned exclusively.
It is unclear if or how the first DNA tests missed what appears to be the only foreign genetic material found on the alleged victim's body, defense attorneys said. Two Duke lacrosse players were indicted more than two weeks before the cheek swab was taken from the "boyfriend."
It is also unclear whether the alleged victim had sex with the "boyfriend" the night she claims to have been raped by three Duke lacrosse players. DNA experts tell ABC News that genetic traces of semen can remain in the body up to six days after intercouse.

I bet you $5 that was a lacrosse stick.
Puzzler, huh?
*Rolling my eyes*
If there was any question before, now there isn't. This case is over. Too bad the lives of all of these young men had to be destroyed in the process. I hope the young stripper babe enjoys her free ride through college courtesy of the activist groups.
Weren't some of the reports in the beginning saying that the "escort service" called a "middleman" to hire the girls?
Yep.
I think you're right..........and I want to know every move (mistake) he has made.
He should have known that about a month ago.
Yes. I couldn't find those reports about a middleman being used for escort services, but maggie might know.
I cannot find the thead of the day of the defense press conference right now -- the one that was transcribed while it was going on, but I swear I remember posting that one of the defense guys said that the results showed she hadn't had sex in days!
I tend to think the later because he would have given up the pimp earlier so in addition to being a dancer, she's probably a little "black"mailer, too.
You mean the one she identified as "use to have a moustache?"
The one who has NEVER EVER had a moustache in his life?
"this ridiculous case is going forward in a year when we have such good black candidates"
Yes, for Governors of Ohio and Pennsylvania, and for Senator from Maryland.
Boggles the mind. This is an incredible year for black Republicans. And this ***ridiculous case*** goes forward in the same year.
And what is it that makes the case stand out? Why it pits "poor" blacks against "wealthy" whites, Peach. And the Democrat DA is determined to side with the "poor" blacks. Even in a case that legally has stunk from the beginning.
Scooter Libby and Tom DeLay were indicted so the Dems could depict a Republican "Culture of Corruption". Were the Duke LaCrosse players indicted so the Dems could depict themselves as the ever loyal, faithful and true defenders of "poor" blacks? So that fewer blacks would consider voting for Ken Blackwell, Michael Steele and Lynn Swann?
???
You've got a different take on the xoxoxox posts than I have. (But what do I know?)
I think xoxoxox was saying that the election had little to do with this case.
"None of this matters...
Barking up the wrong tree-
Look in a different forest...
Follow the DNA."
Something else seems to be going on here other than Nifong's ambition.
After reading xoxoxox's riddles, somebody might be able to convince me it was a "big guy."
I'm open to being talked to about it. :-)
Thanks, sissy.
I wish I was better at "strategy" things.
Sheesh ! This has to be one of the shadiest spectacles in recent memory.
At this point, knowing how the Democrats plan and plot, nothing, absolutely nothing would surprise me.
They are desperate to regain power and are almost (just almost) as dangerous trying to get that power back as they would be actually in power.
When this is all over, Finnerty and Seligmann should march right over to civil court and sue this false accuser for defamation of character/slander/whatever the appropriate case may be. Altho they may not see a cent, at least that would help clean up their reputations somewhat.
Let's see.....by ignoring it? Just a SWAG.
Hey, I forgot to tell you: when I went out for a bit, I had the radio on.
And I heard Kevin Miller.
He was broadcasting LIVE.
From a car lot!
