Doubts About Duke (Newsweek bails on Nifong)

Duke University needs to be held accountable as well. The leftwing whorehouse that is Duke's administration convicted and punished these kids without reason and with no semblance of due process. Defamation of character is a good place to start.

"...the so called "black leaders" who were sure that the white players were guilty simply because a black woman accused them of rape."

For a few different (and un-PC) reasons, white on black rape is so close to non-existent that it would have nade this case rather unique.......and a feather in Nifongs cap.......crime statistics show undeniable that white on black rape is statistically zero.

These kids were understandably disappointed with these 2 whores attractiveness, attitudes, and performance......and vengeance was the goal of the whores once they drove away from the house.

Newsweek along with the City of Durham has destroyed reputations and must pay a high price for their destructive actions.

I doubt that. The only people likely to pay a "high price" here are those who were falsely accused.

Ah, the sweet sound of 'RATS deserting a sinking ship!

The pitter patter of little feet...

What libilities should Dook be held to?

Lately the talk on CNN has been about drinking and name calling by evidently drunk students,,,

"Drunk college students ! Shocking! They weren't 21 either! This has been going on for 5 years! They've had trouble with that house before! Where there's smoke...
and
"They engaged in name-calling. When you use that certain word you open the door to chaos...."

At least they didn't find any tobacco on the premisses. Or maybe they did but the school-- founded on a tobacco fortune,("thank you for smoking, yankees!" )supressed this evidence.

If the kids are underage to drink, then the skrewl is liable, having assumed in loco parentis authority over them (they have no problem with this status on indoctrinating students with PC bs.) There ending the lacrosse program and destroying or attempting to destroy their careers.

Dook is the cow. Milk it.

It'll be interesting to see how events play out when the charges are finally dropped

Like every other outcome that doesn't suit the leftist agenda, a one paragraph story on page D-13. Fortunately the alt media will be all over it.

Twins separated at birth?

What was he thinking????

The black vote during the primary. That's what.

Now we know who got Jim Traficant's rug.

According to their lawyer, Mark Simeon, the accuser's parents have not heard from their daughter for weeks and are very concerned.

NYT 6/08/06

The woman's father said in an interview Thursday that she was seeing a psychiatrist and was in no condition to testify. "I don't know how long it'll be before she gets back in her right frame of mind," he said. "It could be years."

Rehab?

Yes but what's so sad is that he knows that in his part of the country all he has to do is to stack the jury with ill-educated blacks and he has his conviction, regardless of the facts or evidence. I believe he is evil enough to sacrifice these three young men for his own skin.

"Since the dancer's word is now considered questionable, why doesn't Nifong test the DNA of the only lacrosse player not tested so far."


I can give you one speculation/suggestion/clue...

Second from right, kneeling first row...

"The black vote during the primary. That's what."

It's a shame that to garner the "black vote" he had to promise to convict three white boys on trumped up rape charges. Maybe my kids will read "To Kill a Mockingbird, Part 2: The Duke Rape Case".

My how things have come 180 degrees in the last 70 years.

[Crispus Attucks Patriot]

Too bad Johnnie Cochran is dead.

If I were White and the accused, I'd hire HIM as my defense lawyer.

Since he was so good at playing the race card, I have no doubt he'd have been equally skilled at defusing it. Plus I'd love to see him rip into the Durham Dirtbag on cross......

Thanks for the pic - possums need love too.

NEWSWEEK put the mug shots of two of the players—Reade Seligmann, 20, and Collin Finnerty, 19—on its cover the week after they were indicted.
