A private laboratory hired by the prosecution in the Duke lacrosse case failed to report that it found DNA from multiple males in the accuser's body and underwear, according to a defense motion filed today. The lab, DNA Security of Burlington, found that the DNA did not match the three defendants, their lacrosse teammates or anyone else who submitted their DNA to police, including the accuser's boyfriend.

The new evidence emerged in thousands of documents handed over to the defense in October.

Joe Cheshire gave a press conference on the steps; the Duke Lax players were standing behind him.

Do the voters who elected Nifong not realize that a DA like him who will play fast and loose w/the truth and the evidence could also do it to them should they or anyone they know get into his clutches?

According to a correspondent from Newsweek who was on Court TV earlier, there's some sentiment in the community to convict the three players in order to make up for past injustices.

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Duke students.

Didn't see him but wasn't on my radar so he could have been there.

Did Linwood pop in to contradict Cheshire again? He looked so good with egg on his face the last time.

Wilson and Himan were there but played no role.

Well, if that's the case then the only thing that's changed in the area is the color of the person/s being discriminated against. And I wouldn't call that progress.

He mostly listened to the long drawn-out testimony of the DNA expert. As a result I didn't really get a chance to size him up.

I'm not talking about just this area.

Things are the same all over.

What was the outburst that followed Meehan saying that Nifong agreed to not report the other results?

He's no longer on the case?
Wasn't that announced some time ago?

Well the ball is in Duke's court. Will recind the suspension of Finnerty and Seligmann now? That is one thing Duke could do to try to mitigate the damage.

Clapping and muted cheers from the lax supporters. The judge issued an admonishment.

Thanks for looking that up. It's possible that because I used to do research, my doctor was telling me about it at the assay level. This conversation was at least 16 years ago, so there's a very good chance that I have forgotten many of the details of it.

Right we have heard that, but I do not think DPD has made a formal announcement. I would not think andy PD would normally announce such a thing.

Has Nifong given up on using Gottlie's "notes?"
