Lawyer: Photos Will Show Dancer Was Hurt, Impaired Before Duke Lacrosse Party
******************************** AN EXCERPT ****************************
DURHAM, N.C. — Time-stamped photographs will show an exotic dancer was already injured and "very impaired" when she arrived at a party where she claims she was raped by members of 's men's lacrosse team, an attorney for one of the players said Sunday.
Durham attorney said some of the photographs, taken when she arrived at the house, indicate the woman was injured before getting to the party March 13. They show extensive bruises and scrapes on her legs, especially around the knees, he said.
"This young lady was substantially impaired. She had fallen several times during the course of the evening," Thomas said.
He declined to identify the player he represents and said he would not release the photos, taken by at least two cameras, until pending tests are completed.
