I read that the Duke PD informed Dean of Student Affairs Sue Wasiolek about the rape accusationon the morning of the 14th. She told the athletic director who told Coach Pressler. But if she or someone else in the Duke Admin. didn't personally inform the players' parents that their sons might be in legal jeopardy, perhaps the parents could sue for that failure.

The Duke PD passed on erroneous information - that the charges were likely to be misdemeanors which would go away. I can't believe that if the parents were told there was a rape charge they wouldn't have immediately gotten representation for their sons. Instead, the boys were alone when the search warrant was served two days later.

Wonder if they were ever Mirandized early on? If not, whatever information they gave the investigators might be inadmissable...
