Duke Lacrosse DNA: Mystery Man Revealed (Accuser's Boyfriend!!!)
ABC News ^ | 13 May 06 | CHRIS CUOMO, GERRY WAGSCHAL, CHRIS FRANCESCANI and LARA SETRAKIAN

Posted on 05/13/2006 9:30:51 AM PDT by SkyPilot

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.


Joe Cheshire, a defense attorney for Duke University lacrosse players at the center of a rape investigation, said the latest tests show no conclusive match to any of the lacrosse players' DNA. (ABC News

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.

oops. Sorry, the rant wasn't directed at you! Quite the opposite. It was about all the liars and scammers out there and the corrupt institutions that support them. Your situation sounds like a nightmare.

My son (who is a student at Duke) told me that the LAX players had NO interest in sex with the AV b/c they were scared of diseases. Good judgement IMO.

I couldn't find a relationship between Mary Cheek and Lewis Cheek. However, in re Lewis Cheek:

See if you can help me with this when and if you have an opportunity Alia.

I'm glad to. And will do so. Plus looking into stuff other gracious posters have posted.

Am at moment waiting for presser, then away more or less until tomorrow.

The "King Cheek" sounds quite interesting.

Here's testimony during a rape trial from a Duke SANE nurse:

http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=nc&vol=appeals2006/&invol=050006-1

Lauren was examined at Duke University Medical Center by Wendy Craven, a sexual assault nurse examiner. Ms. Craven testified that she wrote down a description of what Lauren told her had happened the previous evening. Over objection by defendant, Ms. Craven testified that the injuries she observed were consistent with blunt force trauma to the genital and anal area.

snip

Next, defendant contends that the trial court erred in allowing a certified sexual assault nurse to testify that the victim's injuries were consistent with blunt force trauma and with the events described to her by the victim.
Q. [the State]: Based upon your experience as a sexual assault nurse examiner, were those injuries consistent with the information that you got from Lauren?

[defense counsel]: Objection, your Honor.

THE COURT: Overruled.

A. [Ms. Craven]: Those injuries were consistent with blunt force trauma to the genital and anal area, and were consistent with the events that Lauren stated to me in her actual statement.

He is also the recipient of innumerable awards and honors. Cheek is currently in the process of launching a new non-traditional medical school in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, China and South Africa. The "College of Integrated Medicine" will combine traditional western medicine with a holistic approach. The schools are scheduled to open in September 2005.

This is ringing some major alert bells for me. I did research some time back on a major, major core marxist "group" who is doing the exact same thing. And I only learned about this group and what they are up to through researching Kim Roberts.

Second, Lavonia Allison's ma was one of the early "pioneers" in the Insurance Industry of NC. She and a man pioneered NC Mutual Insurance Company. Lavonia Allison sits on the board of NC Mutual Insurance Company. Currently.

Of course they didn't! You only have to have one son in the house these days and and you know that most are still cut from the same cloth -- good, sturdy, All-American and wears like iron. I know, even though he was an only child, our house was the Church of the Open Door for all the kids -- at least that's what my family teased me with. I never spent a weekend alone for a decade and a half. I washed their clothes, tucked them in, cooked their meals, mended their uniforms, made sure there were plenty of sodas in the fridge and Nana baked cookies (sometimes on request for favorites). My food budget was never under control. I have so many stories of such apple-pie charm -- maybe I'll write a book someday. We still laugh at some of the more outlandish ideas they came up with, though we never let them see the smiles.

That's what I would think. Wonder if they said anything like this to Crystal and she got mad, being that she was just a single mother trying to support her two children.

Don't know if it's CM's sister or perhaps a relative she's named after, but a Marella Mangum lives on Cheek Road. Was it named after the family.

Indeed. Sociopaths create stories with themselves as the victim, the center of attention, and they add to those stories as life goes by.

Dave Evans, the captain.

I'm glad he made this strong statement. Someone needed to call this whole thing the kangeroo court proceeding this has been so far.

I know that. But Marella the sister could have been named for an aunt.

Is this a general lesson, or are you pointing to some specific fraternity where something similar happened?

Also, sociopaths can make their lies very convincing - they can make great con artists.

Just saw a section of Abrams report. Why does he have this guy named Norm on it. The guy is ill informed and Abrams had to correct him. Also, he just babbles.

My original question regarding the Cheeks is whether or not the AV may be blood related to Commissioner Lewis Cheek, see post #944. Although Commissioner Lewis Cheek is of carcausian decent, the AV just might have a drop or two of blood from Commissioner Lewis Cheek's ancesters.

It appears the Mangums do.
