Wow! That is fantastic!
What a waste. She was on her way to a nice career. I see those apartments are actually leased to NCCU, and that NCCU police seem to be the investigating agency. Weird that the first article even MENTIONED Duke.
It's a problem that is never going away until they face it themselves.
Crabs in a pot
No kidding. IIRC, the first article was complete with a graphic of the Duke logo.

Lots of action on Cornwallis

EXCERPT
Sources close to the case estimate a paternity test on the child could come within the next few weeks.
The accuser's father tells Eyewitness News the pregnancy for the accuser was difficult, but the NCCU student and not mother of now three children is doing fine after delivering a baby girl at UNC Hospitals.
In a statement released by the hospital, officials will only sat the accuser hopes and expects her privacy will be respected.
"...the NCCU student and not mother of now three children..."
NOT mother. LOL.

"Defense lawyer, Joe Cheshire exclaims his three clients didn't touch the woman. So if the players never touched the alleged victim, they never father the child. "
Great writing! (I exclaim.)
Today's trivia:
Cornwallis Road is named after Charles Earl Cornwallis, the English General who fought in the American Revolutionary War and most famously surrendered at Yorktown, and follows the route of his military road through North Carolina.

LAX Player Files Lawsuit Against Duke University
ABCNews and ABC11 Eyewitness News
(01/04/07 -- DURHAM) - A former Duke Lacrosse player has filed a lawsuit against the University saying he was failed by an professor because of his membership on the lacrosse team.
Kyle Dowd filed the lawsuit Thursday against against Duke University and visiting associate professor Kim Curtis. Dowd, who graduated with David Evans in May 2006, was not indicted in the rape case but says that Professor Curtis gave him and another lacrosse player in class a failing grade in class as a form of retaliation after the Duke Lacrosse scandal broke. The two players were apparently receiving passing grades until the scandal, and Duke University revised their grades upward months after graduation.
This does not affect the pending sexual offense and kidnapping case against David Evans, Reade Seligmann, and Collin Finnerty. But it is significant in being the first of likely to be many legal and moral hits against Duke University - critics say that Duke failed to stand by its own students as they came under attack by members of the faculty and community.
It is also noteworthy for its timing, coming one day after Seligmann and Finnerty are reinstated and weeks after a turnaround statement by Duke University President Brodhead, calling for DA Mike Nifong to step off the case.
Duke is being sued for breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Curtis and Duke are being sued for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent infliction of emotional distress, negligence, and punitive damages. For all but one of those claims the lawsuit states that the plaintiffs were damaged in excess of $10,000.
Professor Curtis was among the "Group of 88" professors who published an advertisement in the Duke Chronicle calling the rape scandal a "social disaster." The Group of 88, perceived by critics as attacking the Lacrosse team, at one point thanked protesters who posted "wanted" fliers containing photos of all or nearly all of the Lacrosse players.
