Civil suits were filed against the "victim" and her attorneys in the Tawana Brawley case, and I believe they did obtain judgments (although I think that in practice, they were unenforceable). IIRC, Fat Al Sharpton managed to get out of his by declaring bankruptcy or some such thing.
As for state prosecutors, I don't know if they can be sued or charged for such misconduct.
Even Al's clothes were in someone else' name. I think his wife owned his clothes. He's now divorced. Is he going naked?
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.
The wall of protection around judges, DA, and almost all peace officers is huge. DA can hide behind the victim by saying he was bound to file charges. This is so much BS and the DA has the responsibility to protect the accused as well as the victim. This DA is brainless since he should have held off the indictment until better support for the charges were in evidence. He was up for reelection. You figure it out.
More than likely after the charges are dropped, even if court filings are made by the defendants, the judge can later dismiss the case for lack of evidence during the hearings. Remember the DA used the Grand Jury which has been said many time before, they can indite a ham sandwich. The defendants must use the court system.
There is no law of physics to prevent a university from packings its bags and moving to some other little southern town. THAT, or even the threat of it, would get the attention of the mayor and chamber of commerce of a place like Durham NC faster than you could blink.
