Lab in lacrosse case found many DNA sources (DUKELAX)
The News and Observer ^ | December 13, 2006 | Joseph Neff and Benjamin Niolet, Staff Writers

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.

Right, Bryant did not settle a criminal charge. He could not. But the case against him did collaspe just as the trial was about to start. That is not untypical in such cases.

No one except salivating evil ones wish any repeat of the LA Riots. The "gnu" black panthers, the whole scene, set, camera crew involved with this Durham case needs exorcism. Or extradition to their planet of origin.

"So does anyone know if performing a pregnancy test on a potential rape victim is a common procedure? I have no idea, but if others know, I would be interested in hearing about it."

Having been employed at Wash. U./Barnes Hospital Dept. of OB/GNY years ago, it was standard protocol both at Barnes and before that I was at St. Louis University Hospitals -- it was standard protocol there as well. Since they provide most of the Docs. in St. Louis, at least here in St. Louis is was standard then -- assume we haven't changed.

Gee, you've brought up some tantalizing questions, that I can't answer. But things that we need to mull over.

Man, after reading this conglomeration of opinions my head is exploding. Call me terribly naive, but if her baby is due in February (Neil Cavuto) which would be 11 months after the false rape charges, why would it matter??? An 11 month gestation??? It would certainly be a new record! What are they supposed to have done, hired her again later and knocked her up??? This is ridiculous on the face of it. A paternity test??? For what,... an 11 month pregnancy???

This whole case was merely about Nifong winning the election, and to do that he had to have the irate black vote which he got. The only question is why he keeps prolonging the inevitable.

This is all a "reparations for the past" as brought to America by America haters. Visiting evil upon whites, males, capitalism, and for the sake of socialism -- "leveling the playing cemetary (field)".

It won't hold, and because the field the America haters think they are playing on, doesn't exist in real time.

The Dream and the Nightmare.

At one time I would have politely ignored your opinion -- about four years ago -- now, I have to say you may be entirely right. I have never seen such an assault on young, white males in my nearly 60 years. This is frightening me and it scares the hell out of my son and his friends. Son says he feels as though he has a huge target painted on his back. I know it's residual from the fright we experienced, but in some ways, I think he may be right, too.

Nifong is now prolonging this because it keeps him from going in front of bar hearing for misconduct.

You may be right, but I have tried to be fair -- even when we went through the same thing. I sort'uv believe that as long as the Accuser wants to testify, they have to go forward. Even if the D.A. has his/her doubts, it's the system we have. Once perjury is committed, there is something to go after. The important thing is to let the system do it's work, but it's such a crap shoot -- with juries (esp. in Durham) -- it's hard to get through to the end and there are no guarantees that you'll win. It's all how a jury sees it and if you have folks who would knowingly imprison someone just to get even, then there's no way our system can work.

"Nifong is now prolonging this because it keeps him from going in front of bar hearing for misconduct"

There are at least 100 very bright people on this thread, figuring out all the angles.

Nifong may not be as smart as we first believed. Conniving, but not too bright.

"the truth shall set you free" is non-partisan

Charges are dropped all the time whether or not a victim wants to go forward. The victim is not a party to the criminal action. It is the people v. John Doe. Nifong is the people for this purpose.

The only reason he is continuing this is he fears, bar sanctions, personal liability and possible criminal liability. The NC bar has already said they won't have a hearing until the case is over. A law suit if filed today could not go forward until the case were over. Thus prolonging this stops everything execpt the Department of Justice investigation.
