DURHAM -- An official with the New Black Panther Party for Self Defense said the black nationalist organization is providing security for the woman who has accused Duke lacrosse players of raping her.
And the organization is distributing recruitment brochures with information about a rally planned near the Duke campus for Monday. The brochures ask, "Had enough of disrespect and racism from Duke University?" The materials contain photographs of Collin Finnerty and Reade Seligmann, the two white lacrosse players indicted and charged with raping a black exotic dancer at 610 N. Buchanan Blvd. the night of March 13-14.
"We'll do the escort and the security, going to court, whatever it takes" to protect the accuser from threats allegedly being made against her, said Minister Na'jee Shaka Muhammad, national field marshal with the New Black Panther Party who is based out of Atlanta but working in Durham with the dancer and her family.

The New Black Panther Party rally and news conference is being planned for Monday morning in front of an entrance to Duke at Chapel Drive and Duke University Road. Attorney Malik Zulu Shabazz, the group's national chairman and the national spokesman of Black Lawyers for Justice, will be the keynote speaker.
Muhammad said plans ... include a march past the lacrosse practice fields and ... 610 N. Buchanan Blvd.

Founded in 1989 in Dallas, the New Black Panther Party for Self Defense has chapters across the U.S. It preaches self-determination for a black nation through revolutionary changes. Among other tenets of the organization are calls to free all incarcerated black people, exempting blacks from military service, education that "exposes the true nature of this devilish and decadent American society," and demands for trials by a jury of black peers.

-----Don Henley said it best.-----
True.
But try to avoid giving that Lib Sh*tBag too much credit.
:o)
This is written at the end of the article:
"Additional reporting by Tatsha Robertson."
"Names have been omitted to protect the identity of the family and the alleged victim."
This irks me over and over again. Seligman and Finnerty were, of course, mentioned, as usual.
-----I Love Don Henley!!!-----
Don Henley is a phenomenal musician and songwriter.
He's also a Reagan-hating socialist.
So let's keep the Henley-ass-kissing to a minimum.
Thank you. :o)
On second thought, I guess I shouldn't waste my time trying to understand what Nifong thinks.
-----most painful of all was a black female criminal attorney-----
Who was the black female attorney on Abrams??
Interesting, so she claimed to have been raped when she was 17 or 18, which she claims (according to the family) that she reported, yet the police department has no record of such an incident. She was put on psychiatric medication then and was hospitalized last year for a nervous breakdown.

yep. I bet you there is more to this story than her mother is saying. The defense HAS to know about this, just by looking at the motion they filed.
I wonder how they found considering there was no record of it?
Maybe they located the guys she accused?
hmmmm
..no DNA....'I was raped by a broom handle'....
..so why didn't they look for the broom...
..why swab 46 guys when they should have swabbed a broom handle....:^
I tell you....they're letting this hooker/stripper/whatever she is bring down the prestigious Duke University...
You have to believe that Durham is crawling with PI's hired by the defense team. They know everything there is to know about Crystial from the day she was born. Count on it...
I'll bet you're correct, and in all probability, they had no money. No reason for her to follow through.
See my post # 292 regarding the black/white/hispanic reporting.
"...The mother also told ESSENCE that when her daughter was 17 or 18, she was raped by several men,..."
___________
when her daughter was 17 or 18????....How does a mother not know how old she was when that happen?...That's like me saying my son had a bad ear infection when he was 4 or 5..
maybe it is just me, but that seems odd to me.
What are the odds that a woman would be gang raped in two completely unrelated incidents and by two separate groups of attackers within a decade? And why wasn't the family more adament about her pressing charges? They said it happened when she was "17 or 18". If it were my child, I would remember the exact details, certainly at least when this incident occurred.
* The accuser was gang-raped at age 17/18 by several men.
* The next year she received therapy/medication.
* At age 19 she joined the navy/married.
* Within a year was pregnant by another man/discharged.
* Two years later became pregnant by same man.
* Stole a taxi/DUI/strange behavior at club in 2002.
* Nervous breakdown/hospitalized in 2005
"I'm trying to understand the reason why Nifong thinks the defense would deliberately change the time stamps to show the AV leaving when, in fact, she was arriving."

I think because the neighbor said, they arrived together, and the thought was discredit one photo, discredit all of them...they picked the wrong one.
"Jackie" maintains that her cousin was raped by Duke Lacrosse players. (ABC News)
Well, didn't they have on....take your pick.....rape jackets or rape hoods? :-)
Don't you visualize the "neighbor," as a nosey old man with nothing to do but spy on the guys next door? Well I have an article with his picture that shows a 26 year old man!
Going to be a LONG HOT SUMMER in Durham this year
I have seen his pic, but I did picture him as young, sitting on his porch, smoking a lefthanded cig.
