Early in the Duke lacrosse rape investigation, Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong, who was in a close race to keep his job, spoke about the physical and emotional trauma the alleged victim had suffered at the hands of the players. A police affidavit stated that her medical records revealed the victim had "injuries consistent with being raped and sexually assaulted vaginally and anally." But according to a motion filed by defense attorneys last week, no such physical trauma was found during her exam at Duke hospital. Quoting from the report, which was submitted to the court under seal, the motion states that the nurse—who was in training—examined the woman's entire pelvic region and noted only diffuse swelling of the vaginal walls, a condition explainable by consensual sexual activity.
Police documents indicate that the accuser had in fact engaged in such activity in the days leading up to the incident. The accuser told police that she'd had sex with her boyfriend a week before. She added that she'd also performed using a vibrator in front of a couple. (Though the timing of this incident is not specific, the clear implication is that it had happened near the time of the lacrosse party.) And, according to defense attorneys, the boyfriend's seminal fluid was found in her, suggesting she'd also had sex with him within 72 hours. Jarriel Johnson, who identified himself as the woman's driver, told police in a statement that in addition to sleeping with the accuser himself a week prior to the party, he'd taken her to several appointments at hotels in the days before.

Oops--didn't mean to post twice..
So not only does Read have the cell phone calls, the Cabbie and the ATM receipts but he has someone on record as being with him right after the ho's cut short their act.
Hannity teases that the defense has a surprise for Nifong?
I wouldn't expect Juan to throw anything else but softballs. It used to be reporters want to break stories, they wanted to get to the truth. Now they just report on what the reporters report on.
Hey, how did you get that picture of me?!
Suprise? I think Hannity has promised to air this case daily in exchange for inside information. Sounds fair. But a suprise? What else could there be? Video? Finnerty alibi(already hinted at by defense)?
I am interested but I don't think anything will stop Nifong from going forward.
I'd wager, were this idea put to a vote in Durham, today.. the case would be el fin.
Isn't it great?

1. Colmes says the watch faces of the players are consistent with the time stamps.
2. Repeats bipolar and manic.
3. Says the defense will ask Nifong be removed because he threatened one of the defense attorneys.
Me too.
WTF!!
Jeeze, if I had a nickle.....
LOL!!! and the studley looking man is probably gay...a lot of those good looking stud muffins are.
In my younger years I would shake my head and think "What a waste!"
Panel on H & C:
1. Discusses that the time stamps matching the watches hurts the prosecution.
2. He mental illness is relevant to her credibility.
3. Kendall says if the pictures are right, she was dancing at 12:04 and most would agree she was not raped prior to dancing.
4. Hannity brings up prosecutorial abuse. Prosecutor Bondi I think starts and then a break. She seem to be worrying with Hannity that Nifong is over the line.
