I'd say that's a racist statement - and that's coming from a white guy.

And I'd says it's just that kind of thinking that keeps Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson in business. Thanks alot.

>>>If DNA from a person or persons yet unidentified were discovered on or in the alleged victim, will that information ever be made public and a search for it's owner,be launched?<<<

Many states keep a database of sex offender DNA.

I think in his first interview, which imo was the last time he spoke truthfully, he said her boyfriend brought her to his house around 11:00 am from the hospital.

Oh, a good thought. A little shot across the bow by Cheshire.

Maybe it was from the previous performance where she actually got drunk and injured. Or she could have made a drug drop for her boss. Anyway, the $2,000 claim was later reduced to $400. Just another one of her lies.

This is great! The defense attorneys waited to leak this until after the arrest? You cannot argue with ATM and cabbie receipts!!!

Okay, who will they nail next for the "crime"?

Yes. I think the father also said he learned about the rape from the media. And then in the next interview he said she told him. He's been caught in a number of lies but I couldn't document them; other freepers can.

Even if they were not guilty, this entire episode shows what can happen if students don't behave appropriately.

Lot's of bad things can happen with a person does behave "appropriately" as well. Sometimes a person is just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

How were these guys representing Duke at all? It was a private party at a private residence with no ties whatsoever to the school.

Did Rita as "Kim" what she was doing for those 20 minutes?

The phone records can now be subpoenaed, and I'm sure they will obtain them.

You keep mentioning orgies and I don't think you know what that means because there is absolutely zero evidence that this party was an orgie.

LOL - I didn't know that. How has that been explained away?

There was NO DNA on or in the accuser, so your question is null and void.

"You are never to be taken seriously again - at least where law-and-order issues are concerned."

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!

You are ALSO making assumptions - assumptions about the woman's prior behavior and translating it over to this incident.

Plus others about the presumed innocence of these guys before all the facts are in.

They have been arrested. They were accused. Let the case
proceed and the facts will, hopefully, fall into the open as the evidence is examined.

If they WERE innocent, and they had never gotten involved in something as stupid as having an Animal House Party, complete with strippers, this never would have happened.

"Black opportunism" is a racist statement?

Was Tawana Brawley black opportunism?

When this turns out to be a phony charge, how would you characterize a black woman falsely accusing two white men of rape, allowing the black community of Durham to turn out in her favor, and Jesse Jackson to make a big show of coming to town and awarding her a scholarship?

True, but there is conveniently a 20 minute window in the photos. Suddenly, Kim remembers she didn't see Crystal for 20 minutes.

These young men are getting railroaded into a conviction. I really hope for their sake that the commerical transaction story stands.

So if the bf brought her home from the hospital around 11:00 (I remember that vaguely), then how did she go to the police department that morning to ID those 2 boys?

By the time she talked with her dad, which they all say she did, and then drove to the PD, opened books of Duke University students, etc., it couldn't have happened the way Rita described this morning.
