And that $40,000 was a premium that is gone forever, just the beginning of the costs to this family. This will end up costing each of the three families a bundle, even if it's dismissed before trial, which it should be.
Yeah. He/she doesn't know anything about the evidence, just that his/her cousin has ulcers now and is distraught physically and emotionally from the "rape."
(HA! I wonder where the "ulcers," are! Ewwwww!)
And, IMO, it was born a "he."
And I got it too. Thanks for taking over.
I got the test ping too. Also thanks for the excellent summary last night.
As for direct evidence of sex, there is none; none from any of the forty lacrosse players, that is."
The presence of DNA on the outside of the fake nail is huge for Evans. If he fished out the fake nail, and turned it over to the police, it is worthless as evidence.
" Abrahms guest said the nurse asked the if condoms were used and she said no. "Magic Condom" is now gone, along with the "Magic broomstick".
This is astonishing if true. No broomstick, no condom, and no semen belonging to any of the Duke players. What becomes obvious here is that they used "magic penis's."
So, in his opening stratement to the jurors in Durham Nifong will bloviate with:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I will show that the false accuser was raped. I have no evidence of a foreign object, I have no evidence of a condom, and I have no semen evidence from the accused. However, I can prove that they used magic penis's."
I, thank heavens, don't know how this works. I'm confused.
I thought bail was paid upon release to compel return of the charged person to court, i.e. to prevent flight. All $400,000 is tied up as long as the charges are unresolved. I thought it was all refundable even if the charged person is eventually convicted as long as the charged person made his/her court dates. I thought that the majority of the $400,000 was paid by a family friend. Surely that friend (unlike a bail bondsman) wouldn' be charging the accused a 10% premium. What am I missing?
You can't make this stuff up, can you?
All of the years we have traveled I-85 from Richmond to Atlanta (since '68) there have always been the GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS signs along the way.
Who would have thought one day I would know what these places were like on the inside.
A stripper 6 months pregnant?
And lest anyone thinks this is a wild tangent, these people live in their own universe--I bet they all know each other.
If they put up $400,000 in cash for the bail, they get it all back. But if they bought a bail bond, which is what most people do, they pay a premium of 10%, and that money is gone forever. It's what the bailbondsman gets for his risk in bonding the $400,000, which will be lost to him if the accused skips out.
I'm not aware of how they got the bond money put up, and I may have assumed they bought a bond when they didn't. If either they or someone else put up 400 grand, there is no 10% premium.
I never thought I'd see a "user review," for a strip club. How in the heck did you find that?
"whore-to-culture!"
That's a classic.
Thanks for the ping, Perdogg.
I think the only thing people like you and Howlin and Locomotive Breath and others in Durham (alia, I think?) can do to really help these poor fellows stuck in the Nifong meatgrinder is to make sure this case stays on the front burner and in the public eye. Those of us far away from Durham can help too, but to a smaller degree.
I concur with those who say that Nifong's strategy is to drag this obvious judicial lynching of innocent young men out until it gets away from the public eye, then quietly make it go away once he has milked it for all it's worth.
That is so vile and evil it's breathtaking, but it gives you insight into the state of our judicial system.
You have to take into account that bail money tied up is still money lost. You could be making a lot of money off of that $400K.
Did a google search on Foxxy Lady, where the supposed transvestite Jakki (aka jackie), cousin of AV works.
I don't think it's a wild tangent at all. I don't know how it directly affects the case, but you're right, Durham isn't that big, so it's obvious that everyone in the stripper/escort business is pretty much familiar with everyone else. I would also include LE, which further covinces me that this incident is not the first time Nifong has had dealings with Mangum and Roberts.
"The restraining order prohibits Dockside Dolls from allowing criminal activity on the premises or arrangements for prostitution at other locations. Club owner and President Jerry W. Golding also cannot sell or give away the property. Superior Court Judge Ronald Stephens says the order will remain in effect until a jury decides whether the club is a public nuisance."
Durham is a small pond.
I'. not sure what Evans bond is, cash or 10% to bondsman, but I suspect that it was also 400k cash or we'd have by now seen a bondsman as a talking head on the tube....

I believe it has been reported that each of the indicted players paid their bond with cashier's or certified checks.
Got the ping Thanks!
Many people take out home equity loans and just keep the line of credit for emergencies. Those loans typically cost about 7%. That's a big monthly payment on top of a first mortgage.
If they put up cash, they get it all back.
I suspect there is a system for putting the money into an interesting bearing account during the pendency of the matter, but it's only going to throw maybe 3 or 4 % interest, tops.
These three families or their supporters have lost the use of $1.2 million cash for a year, just on the three cash bonds. That's a huge penalty to whoever put the money up.
Next come the big attorneys fees and expert costs. This is a real tragedy, all because one whore and one political whore teamed up to their mutual advantage.
Maybe Nifong doesn't want to give up his free lap dances for another year?
