Police: Dancer Called Rape Allegation a 'Crock'

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.

What does it sound like to you?

[Howlin]

None. Zippo.

The accuser told the nurse that Roberts assisted players in the alleged sexual assault...

Sorry, I copied the wrong quote above. This is what I was refering to.

[TommyDale]

But there is a statement that a foreign object WAS used in the hours prior to the Duke "dance appearance" with the couple in the motel/hotel.

They went about as mild as they could in those headlines, didn't they?

I would have titled the article ALLEGED DUKE VICTIM ACCUSED SECOND DANCER OF SEXUAL ASSAULT AND ROBBERY or something similar. That's the real story.

[TommyDale]

He's grasping for straws. He's fishing, as Tom Manning said.

and was taking Flexeril, a prescription drug used to treat muscle spasms.

Trick pelvis?

[Howlin]

What did Tom Manning say?

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.

LOL she just gets better and better as a witness, huh. That's a six-pack and she's what, 130 pounds?

"Works every time..."

[Howlin]

In NC, he is REQUIRED by law to tell the Grand Jury exculpatory information, which most of this sounds like.

[Carling]

So let me see if I follow here. Registering as a sex offender and likely going to prison is a better option than $25k in restitution?

I will say that your conspiracy theory is the first thing I've seen on this thread that plausibly makes sense for LIEfong's case. It's far-fetched and about as unethical as anything I've ever witnessed, but this case is going down in the history books anyhow so why not add some forced testimony as well? Your scenario is the only thing that makes any sense for LIEfong. How sad is that?

[Carling]

Well, that at least rules out the GHB and similar self-ingestion. Of course, I was going on LIEfong's hinting at a date rape drug. The apparent fact that CGM was drunk and using prescription drugs at the same time is completely unsurprising. I always figured that any drug in her would have been self-ingested, I was just wrong for believing LIEfong in a moment of weakness.

Ye old vibrator? I thought Crystal did't have any toys with her.

[TommyDale]

Maybe her batteries died!

[Krodg]

I wasn't doubting you, I just missed it. What hospital was she taken to that night?

[Carling]

From the linked article.

Nifong could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

When was the last time that man COULD be reached for comment? Isn't he a public employee? Is he in hiding or something?

It makes no sense.

[Howlin]

Duke.

Nifong appeared to have plenty to indict Kim.

Evidence of a crime, a complainant, and a positive ID.
