The latest Duke University lacrosse player accused of raping a stripper is the product of the rarefied air of Washington power and privilege. Suspect David Evans is the son of Rae Evans, 50, a prominent lobbyist who boasts topnotch links to the Bush family, and David Evans, a partner at one of the capital's most prominent law firms.
Evans' preppie-looking parents stood stiffly behind him Monday as he forcefully rejected the explosive rape case that has ensnared the once top-ranked Duke lacrosse team

Here we go.
Why would the prosecutors refuse to talk to him and refuse him a polygraph. This kid sounds sincere in his denial. What a vicious bogus witchhunt.
I knew it, he is not only white he is rich! Let's lynch that SOB. Guilty, guilty, guilty....
"Suspect David Evans is the son of Rae Evans, 50, a prominent lobbyist who boasts topnotch links to the Bush family, and David Evans, a partner at one of the capital's most prominent law firms."
Ahh, that explains everything - It's Bush's Fault!
Thankfully this time she spared us the tale of them covering her with racial epithets in feces.
I've got to say that young man had a lot more restraint than I would have shown in his news conference. There is no way on Gods Green Earth I could have prevented the words 'lying cheap street whore' from escaping my lips.

Because the prosecutor is using this case for political advancement, and isn't interested in justice. That has been obvious from the very beginning, when Nifong inappropriately made around 70 media appearances before any indictments while the investigation was still ongoing.
This dosen't seem to be about the truth anymore. Its about prosecuting someone, anyone. Just three white guys will do.
gee, no value judgments there...
Oh my, they are Repulicans to!! White, rich, Republicans! The only thing that could make matters worse is if we find out they are Christians. What sort of horrible death do these people deserve?
You left off gold-digging.
This whole thing stinks like the Tawana Brawley extortion.

"a prominent lobbyist who boasts topnotch links to the Bush family"
One can see that this powerful connection sure helped him a lot.
Has the paper done a story on the backround of the alleged victim? I'd bet that would make interesting reading, too.
And this doesn't cast doubts on the accusations?
Poor girl of dubious morals, accuses rich boy with no record of violence or anti-social behavior of rape. Girl's story cannot be validated. Girl's story is inconsistent.
Unlike Clinton, who had multiple women accuse him of rape or claimed sexual relations with him, with credible backgrounds and characters, while this boy so far has not been outed as a habitual rapist, or promiscuous sex fiend. Yet, he must be guilty because... the accuser is...
I'm inclined to wait for evidence before declaring that the kid is innocent, but so far the prosecution's case is standing on one leg that has been chopped off at the knee.
Oh, he's a rich kid. Then he must be guilty of any and all accusations in today's America.
