Police: Dancer Called Rape Allegation a 'Crock'
abc11tv ^ | 6-8-06 | eyewitness News

Posted on 06/08/2006 2:03:55 PM PDT by Mike Nifong

The motion also says the alleged victim told Durham police that she had performed for a couple at a Raleigh hotel hours before the Duke lacrosse party. She told police that she used a vibrator. Osborn suggests that could be the source of the vaginal injuries mentioned in the rape kit report. (snip) Osborn says the accuser gave conflicting accounts of what happened. The motion says medical records indicate she told a doctor that she used no alcohol or drugs. The accuser told the sexual assault nurse that she had consumed one drink of alcohol and was taking Flexeril, a prescription drug used to treat muscle spasms.

The alleged victim told a doctor the next day at UNC Hospitals that "she was drunk and had had a lot of alcohol that night," the motion said.

She later told police that she had consumed a 24-ounce bottle of beer and then told police she had two 22-ounce bottles of beer, according to the motion.

Yes, that's right, but I was thinking more in terms of just physical medical history.

I've only seen Nancy once or twice in my life and never check in on her. It's just too much to ask of a person :-)

okay, it seems this case turned out to be exactly what I thought it was.

The reason why I'm so interested in this case, is because I was falsely accused of rape in North Carolina (not Durham), and my family was relentlessly pursued by detectives and police. When my wife wouldn't say what they wanted her to say, they attempted via Social Services to take my kids away. They wouldn't even let my kids go to someone in my large family. It was hell and I'll never view a policemen, DA, or Social Services investigator the same in my life.

I wrote long detailed letters to everyone in the state and then started trying to get the National Media involved - all to no avail. It's a hell that you'll never want to know.
I had an absolutely clean record - nothing, nada. One speeding ticket and nothing else.

When I wouldn't "cooperate" after they jumped in my face and told me I was a violent rapist and it was clear to all, the PD contacted the local paper and they printed an article that I was suspected of rape. They used my address but not my name to comply with N.C. Public records statutes. When that didn't work, Social Services put me out of my house - or my kids were going to be removed. With me being out of the house, they threatened my wife with charges (accessory, abeting, etc.) and calling the paper back to put an article about her suspected involvement. When I still didn't "cooperate" (in their estimation), they told me they were going to my place of employment and having mass interviews to see if any actions at work were consistent to the charges against me. They did go to my work - security and ask for information and video of me entering and leaving work on certain dates. They did speak to my boss. My boss (who knew me, my wife, and kids very well) - called his boss with me sitting right next to him. The Senior Management person was a woman that has known me from projects, but not that well, for years. She didn't know I was sitting right there and she told him that maybe I was a rapist, because we don't know people behind closed doors. He quickly took her off speaker. She told him that they wouldn't support me other than to treat me like everyone else.

The investigators/dectectives used so many unbelievable techniques it was like the twilight zone. They told me that people in my family had implicated me, they told me my kids told Soc. Services things. They told me my wife was trying to get rid of me. Many times I would get out of the car, and the Detectives came out of nowhere. They would get in my face and question me and then later swear I said this when I said no such thing. For instance, they told Social Services that I told them when they caught me off-guard (they were always popping out while I was parking) that I was taking the kids (kidnapping, in effect) and leaving the state. The next moring Social Services was at my house (there investigation was already opened), the social worker and the Head of the local office accusing my wife of planning to flee and they insisted on questioning my kids individually without my wife present (she had to go in the garage). They questioned EVERY neighbor. Motions were filed to take actions to further "protect" my kids by Social Services. Social Services notified us in writing that their plans were to have my children separated in different state facilities until the investigation was completed.

The detective grew tired of my non-compliance (he wanted a confession). He accused me of another crime in the area and told me they had witness (this was the first I had ever heard of this). He mentioned (on the street now) that he had informants that would love to do him a favor.

Being naive and thinking if someone just knew this was going on - they would stop it. I called the chief of Police. He told me that I needn't call him again and that he had full confidence in the investigator that said this due to his "production". At this point, since I was out of the house, they called my wife and demanded to know where I was. Using phones at libraries and public places (like the Fugitive), I called me wife and I told her not to give them any information. I was moving from place to place and trying to stay on camera (ATM's, Work, Businesses) whenever I could, because I became convinced I was being framed for other crimes. I kept a journal of my whereabouts at all times.

My youngest daughter - missing me and not knowing what was going on told her kindergarten teacher that her Dad had taken her to work the night before (she had a Dream). She told the teacher about the Snack or Break room and the white boards that she writes on with markers. Yes, she had been to my work before with my other children to see my office - for brief visits. The school had been alerted by the Police and Social Services. So, the teacher called the number. The police and Social Services descended on the school. A large policemen and a frantic social worker said that my daugher told them that Daddy took her to work during the night (I was not allowed in my house by order). They got her to say that I took her to work "to be alone with her"

I became public enemy number one in the district I lived in and working surreptitiously, while the police were looking for me, I had about 9 people sign affadavits. The after-hours security officers (luckily I worked at a highly secure place) all signed affadavits I had typed up saying that they had NEVER seen me enter or leave the building with a child or children. They stated they were required to make rounds on every floor every hour and they never encountered me with a child. I wanted to get them on record before the police enticed them with job prospects.

Before they took my children away to state institutions, my lawyer (for a substancial fee) brokered a meeting with the number 2 man in Social Services in the state. My wife and I spoke with him and explained that they had hundreds of cameras at my place of employment and it could be easily disproved that I took my daughter into work. I handed over the affadavits and the guy was speechless. He said he certainly was led to believe that my case was something else entirely. He said he was told that we wouldn't cooperate at all, when, in fact, my children had undergone numerous forensic examinations at Medical centers specified by Social Services. When they did subpoena the video from my employer of the night in question, I was allowed back into my house. I still couldn't be alone with my children though pending other investigations. Much later and many dollars poorer the case was dropped. No apologies. In fact, the police came to my house the day after the case was officially dropped (when they knew I was gone) and told my wife that "experts" believe that I was sexual offender and that, most likely, I'm still offending. I called the Police chief and he told me that he recommended I move out of town.

A woman on the next street moved due to the Newspaper report, because she worried for her kids. Another neighbor, when drunk, made a despicable comment to my wife.
I was told I am in a database for life and there is no removing my name totally, but I was assurred that the Database is super secret. Of the 12 houses closest to mine, 11 of those people signed a document, under penalty of perjury saying that they had never seen me act inappropriately in any way.

This will sound odd after writing all that, but I don't like talking about it. I am just trying to educate those that live their lives with the belief that only guilty people are persecuted by the authorities.

I don't think so. In federal cases, yes.

I believe it's Kimberly Roberts Pittman.

I am sure I read an article giving that as her full legal name.

I can't stand that mealy-mouthed broad, Susannah Meadows. Even still, she seems reluctant to just tell the truth about what is going on.

But now even Jim Hammer has weighed in against Nifong. He had been on the fence, albeit skeptical of Nifong's case, but this seems to have put him over the edge. greta things Nifong should dismiss and this thing is just getting more and more awful. Both were talking about possible ethical violations by Nifong.

Oh, one could tell she wasn't happy to have to report what she was reporting, and it basically was sort of pryed out of her.

Slapping my forehead "Well DUH!!!"

This is when I usually turn to husband and say "Uh-oh, just like my Grandma. You'll be taking care of me when I am old and have a short term memory of a nanosecond, and I will sing the same song over and over and over and over"

That's when he says no way, he'll put me down like we had to do to our dear departed 17 year old lab.

Right, which was why I concluded Pittman was the real name.

"Kim Roberts, appearing on the court calendar as Kim Roberts Pittman, is accused of violating the probation she received for embezzling just under $25,000 from Qualex, a photo-processing company where she worked in the year 2000."

Yep, it's her full name.

How did Nifong think he was going to get away with the accuser mentioning that Kim helped in the attack but Nifong doesn't indict Kim along with the 3 guys?

Because he's the DA and he knows the judge...besides all those high priced lawyers are afraid to be up against him in court.

What a nightmarish experience, Mike. I'm glad you and your family survived it.

Oh my gosh, Mike. That is a horrendous thing for anyone to go through. Social services can make a person's life hell for the most ridiculous reasons, and then let crack mothers get their kids back. And cops...don't even get me started.

I'm a big law enforcement person but know that cops lie and intimidate every day of the week if they think they have a suspect.

I really don't know what to say except I can see why this case interests you and I'm sorry that you and your family had to experience this nightmare.

My interest is that I know someone who was raped brutally by a stranger, and cases like this make real rape cases more difficult to both prosecute and for the victims to come forward.

He didn't think the defense would ever get the report. remember, the defense got this stuff from DPD, which is what is so significant about it. It's a big cover-up of a conspiracy to get these guys convicted. But the defense was wise to it, either because of their early chat with Kim when she was still telling the truth, who would have told them what all she said to the cops, or because someone inside DPD leaked it to them. i suspect the former, but either is possible. Anyway, a few weeks ago the defense got an order securing all notes, reports, messages and all records pertaining to the case in the hands of any LEA involved in the case. I think Himan balked at destroying them, no matter what Nifong might want, and, if true, it probably means Himan was acting per Nifong's instruction. If Himan didn't turn over the reports to Nifong on his own volition, he would have destroyed the records, I would think. But if it was originally Nifong's instruction to hold them back, he probably wouldn't stick his neck out that far.

Wouldn't the accuser naming Kim as a participant in the rape be a part of the formal report and if not, why not? Not expecting anyone to really know the answer, but so much about this case makes no sense that it must be a nightmare for those families to watch their kids going through this that I'd be bashing my head against a wall.

Because Nifong was using Kim---he wouldn't charge her if she changed her story. That's how he got her + the other old charge. She folded and he was able to proceed with the case.
