EXCLUSIVE

[DURHAM. N.C.] A top Duke University official confirms that last spring, after allegations that a black exotic dancer was raped at a drunken Duke lacrosse player party made headlines, Duke Campus Police told him that when she and the second dancer first got there, unidentified white males inside were overheard saying, “ Oh no. We’re not going to f—k a nigger bitch.”

(snip)

In an exclusive phone interview Tuesday with The Wilmington Journal/Carolinian newspapers, John F. Burness, vice president of Public Affairs at Duke University, confirmed that’s what he was told by Duke Campus Police, in the presence of Duke Prof. Karla Holloway, an African-American, who was in his office at the time.

Burness also forwarded the newspapers a copy of his Jan. 3, 2007 email correspondence to Prof. Holloway, who first revealed the shocking allegation in an email to her colleagues that same day, explaining why she was stepping down from various committee assignments in protest of two of the indicted players being reinstated at the school.

“I will share with you what I have not previously shared publicly,” Holloway wrote to her colleagues Jan. 3. “It has colored this matter for me since last spring. It is legally hearsay, but nevertheless speaks volumes to what I think are the intricacies of the event that deserve a legal hearing.”

I am astonished that Burness would make that statement. I am completely stunned ~ not that such a statement "might" have been made, but that someone in an official capacity would have the gall to repeat such inflammatory hearsay. Absolutely frickin' unbelievable....

"Duke Campus Police told him that when she and the second dancer first got there, unidentified white males inside were overheard saying, “ Oh no. We’re not going to f—k a nigger bitch.”"

This was another lie from Crystal Gail Mangum. Kim has said she heard no race-related remarks until she provoked the exchange of slurs as she was leaving in her car. Furthermore, the black lacrosse player was at the party until after the "show" and he says he heard no racial slurs. These people just can't let it go, can they? Holloway was right in the middle of things from day one. There can't be much doubt that she took part in determining administration's handling of the event.
Why is Burness releasing this hearsay report now? Is he trying to mitigate damages from the 88's statement?

“ Oh no. We’re not going to f—k a nigger bitch.”

So this was the justification in railroading the white boys?

There was a lot of funny business going on with DURHAM PD immediately following the event.

Let's look at this sentence ONE MORE TIME:

Duke Campus Police told him [BURNESS] that when she and the second dancer first got there, unidentified white males inside were overheard saying, “ Oh no. We’re not going to f—k a nigger bitch.”

Hearsay from Crystal and/or Kim?

Or is the campus police female, and when the campus police female and the second dancer first got there (I guess the Duke LAX House), said campus police and second stripper heard this?

Is the Campus Police also Crystal?

Please, somebody, defrag this sentence from the article?

I read the entire article- it's quite obfuscated.

" Somebody " told the Durham police that the players yelled that phrase.
The Durham police then told the Duke police what " someone " had told them.
The Duke police then told the Burness, the Duke VP what the Durham police had told them.
The professor was in the office while the Duke VP spoke to the Duke police.
So, while it is quite true that professor Holloway did overhear the Duke VP repeat aloud, what he had just been told-there is no substantiation that anything he had just heard ...was true.

Burness continued, “I also knew that the Durham Police didn't clarify who apparently had said it.."

Gossip and rumor passed from department to department is now considered fact.

Kim made no mention of this in her 60 Minutes interview, nor in her police statement. This must be coming from Crystal Mangum.

Cash "scooped" the reinstatement story which appeared on Jan 3rd.
Apparently the purpose of the scoop was to ignite the hellfire and damnation of blacks.

Didn't happen.

So now they hit the blacks over the head with a frying pan.

It is legally hearsay

And since you are recklessly spreading it with no knowledge of the truth of the matter, it is defamation, but that is a minor point compared, I suppose, with the seriousness of the charge.

Knowing that it is legal hearsay she spreads it anyway??? I know college professors can be dumb as a rock, but this is deliberate.
