A march in support of accused former Duke University lacrosse players will begin at 11 a.m. today in front of the Durham County Courthouse, 201 E. Main St.
Sunday morning's "Walk of Support" will move from the courthouse downtown to Koskinen Stadium, home of the Duke lacrosse team, near Wallace Wade Stadium and Cameron Indoor Stadium on Duke's West Campus.
The groups "Concerned Duke Mothers" and "Ethical Durham" hope to show their support and demand "fair treatment" for the former Duke players -- David Evans, Collin Finnerty and Reade Seligmann -- who face first-degree kidnapping and sexual offense charges stemming from the allegations of a Durham woman who originally claimed the men raped her at an off-campus lacrosse party in March.
Hiring a campaign blogger is now necessary for each campaign. But this episode shows how treacherous the waters can be when a candidate just dives in and picks someone. For now Edwards and his campaign will be in the position of having to defend what this woman has written in the past and explaining why he found her particular writing style so suitable for his campaign. Other blogs covering the story include Brainster, Hit & Run, Outside the Beltway, Overlawyered and South of Heaven. Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit also has called attention to Marcotte's woes.
Gee, that is brilliant. I wonder why I didn't think about it. A similar question though, would be if the races were reversed.
"Can't a few black boys sexually assault a white woman anymore without people getting all wound up about it? So unfair."
