You said chris1 was a bluffer. I don't think so. He offered you the opportunity to put up or shut up. Personally, once I get my legal stuff resolved in the next few months, I would consider a trip to NY just to meet chris1. I think he is my kind of guy.

Even if she can't pay now, having a judgment following her for years will make things difficult for her - unless she decides to remain a prostitute and stripper all her life, which probably won't make for an easy time in her golden years, LOL! If that's her plan, I see some unemployment in her future.

I didn't miss the point, I know the strippers were black.
I'm only making the point that anytime young women disrobe in the company of drunken rowdy young men...everyone there is in a potentially damaging situation.

The girls could get manhandled, or the guys could get accused of manhandling them.

I haven't been following your dialogue. Are you saying other posters don't realize that the essential basis of this case is race?

Would it be fair to say that your reputation with judges is that you do not put up with B.S. rulings and decision?

I read the N&O original interview with him done several days, perhaps a wekk, after the party. He was completely clueless. Now he's claiming different knowledge and involvment that is impossible in light of his first response of surprise at the entire matter.

Probably planning for the post acquittal civil suit where she can really go for the gold.

Try not to run over anyone while you back peddle, Chris.

Afraid Carling might take you up on your offer?

She says that pubic and head hair was taken from players and is being compared to a hair found on accused as well.

Huh? Now they're trying to prove...what?, that there was some kind of sexual contact between two men!? WTF?

Glad to learn I'm not losing my mind, at least what's left of it.

My stepdaughter just sold her house here in RDU for a million.

I doubt they'd be able to come up with the legal fees these families are going to have.

I think you're missing the point. It's not that they had strippers there that caused the trouble. The problem is that the strippers were black.

Not only that, they allowed her stay despite noticing that the bruises on her body- most black people don't bruise that easily so they must have serious. They should have just given her money and sent her on her way. Now they face a situation where their fate depends on a jury who likely won't feel an ounce of sympathy for rich white guy from Duke who yelled racial slurs at the accuser and the other stripper. Even if someone justice prevails and they are acquited, they may have financially ruined their parents in defending.

The richest people in the world aren't usually accused of stuff like this.

You seemed to have overcome your "disability" pretty well though. :-)

Well, that, and the fact that the whole justice system is totally corrupt. I think that's the gist of all of his posts.

But I've read that they were disappointed that they were black.

Another "wishful thinking" momemt, if you ask me, along with "when one of them comes forward."
