Given enough alcohol and muscle relaxant I'd bet good money that you can be induced to have an hallucination, and you will believe that it's real!

I wish I had hallucinated this - Georgia Goslee was just on MSNBC with someone else saying Nifong has been totally rehabilited by the NY Times piece. She says the public is starting to understand that the players are guilty. This is a real disaster in terms of public perception of the case.

I don't think Sarah is disputing this. I think she is saying based on Mangum's past behavior when she applied to be a stripper at the bar, Sgt. Shelton's interaction with Mangum, her parole status with the need not to test positive, her desire not to go to jail etc, that she knew exactly what she was doing that night. She acted on her incentives and cried rape. She knew she was lying.

I tend to agree with Sarah. I also think Mangum could be delusional and what she knew was a lie several months ago, she believes is the truth by now.

The day after incident, she told UNC medical that she'd had a lot to drink the night before. I contend she did that to account for her behavior, some of which she probably couldn't remember, and her condition which was largely induced by a combination of drugs and alcohol by blaming alcohol entirely, a legal substance.
