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.

LOL......you are bad!
I would LOVE to be in that courtroom Friday morning to hear him explaining THIS.
He cannot brush this away with a laugh like he usually does.
But I think you're right: he won't stop; he'll shoot the moon.
Continuing with the "Hearts" terminology, we all know what happens when you "Shoot for the Moon" and fall short, right? You Shoot the Wad"
I am really looking forward to this...
What time does the court begin? Is there any court announcement/record as to when this case will come up?
I'm planning on being there. I have not been able to find it officially but I have been informed by an anonymous poster on another blog that the festivities start at 0930 in the Grand Jury room.

You are OUR very own FR press representative! We'll be waiting breathlessly for your reliable 1st hand reports, LB!
Thank you for your confidence and kind remarks, but KC Johnson's going to be there too and he outclasses me in this regard and not by a little.
can this case be thrown out entirely tomorrow?.....I hope so.....
let's separate innocent poor citizens from the rabble rousers.....the black community was only doing what they thought they should...afterall, there has been a history of whites getting away with crimes in the distant past( now, its just the opposite.) at least there has been that perception..........
my point is this....the REAL bandwagoners are those that should have known better in the first place...the Duke university staff for one, the TV talking heads who thought they knew better..(nancy grace) and every single newswriter who thought they didn't need to examine this case but could nontheless convict the young men sans trial.....
These "innocent poor citizens" were taking the lead from Je$$e Jack$on and others. They have no excuse for their behavior.
Well, he's a lawyer and I gather you are not...but we need the layman's "take" on the proceedings and demeanors as well as the legal one. Thanks ahead of time for doing this...sure wish that I could be there w/you!
OK, then, your job is to hold your cell phone open while someone on the other end is transcribing the goings-on onto the board for those of us 1,000's of miles away! Cell-cert! (sort of...) Although, did I hear that it is on tv also?
Thank you again.
I know he's currently a history professor in New York.
Is he also a lawyer?
If you wonder what motivates him, see here

He had his own little battle with a left-wing groupthink very similar to Duke's gang of 88.
I can't wait to read the book he's clearly setting up to write.
p.s. I'm an engineer but I don't drive trains (old joke).
"No," Harris said. "It's about honesty. You're not honest."
Bob Harris sure had Nifong pegged, didn't he? Exactly right not to shake that slimy hand....
Well the thought of bringing a tape recorder with me has crossed my mind. But I don't think that's allowed and, unlike Mike Nifong, I generally try to obey the law. I wish they were still allowing video cameras in the courtroom. Nifong is his own worst enemy.
... own worst enemy in front of the camera.
I visited the site. It is truly amazing how many apologists for Nifong are still out there. It boils down to whether or not you are willing to take essentially irreversible actions based on the unsubstantiate word of a prostitute/criminal. The cold hard reality is that only the intellectually enfeebled or those wanting to manipulate the situation for their own ends would do such a thing. PC, like syphilis, does terrible things to a brain. Both are terrible diseases: easy to avoid, hard to cure.
Quite, funny. I think I will pass on contacting them. To bad it is not a short opportunity.
Who Will Stop Mike Nifong?
The innocence posse falls off its horse
BY TARA SERVATIUS
Just penned this to Tara Servatius...
Tara,
I love your column, your occasional appearances on WBT, and your coverage of what's going on in Durham.
With that said, I have one simple request: Please stop referring to this circus as the "Duke Lacrosse Rape Case" as that title is beyond misleading. The situation has been dubbed that by the all-powerful mainstream media. The MSM uses such names to forward various agendas, which in this case is a racially, politically, economically, "whatever-ally" divisive one.
I hereby coin the phrase, "Durham False Accusation of Rape Charge, Etc." (Durham FARCE) which more accurately describes the shenanigans of that Fool-Run-Amok, Uber-District-Attorney (FRAUD Attorney).
I urge you to help me spread the word about the "FRAUD Attorney's Durham FARCE." In fact, I can imagine neither a better way to get the word out, nor a better headline, than to refer to the "FRAUD Attorney's Durham FARCE" in you column and on the air.
Thank you
