It looks like Duke University has another rape case on its hands. This one may hurt the university nearly as much as the one that rocked its campus back in 2006. Unlike the previous case, this one appears to involve a credible confession of sexual abuse. Like the previous case, crucial facts are already being filtered through the prism of identity politics.
Frank Lombard is the associate director of Duke’s Center for Health Policy. The university administrator was recently arrested by the FBI and charged with offering up his adopted 5-year-old son for sex. I tried to contact Frank Lombard over the weekend to probe his expertise regarding the health benefits of raping small children. So far, he’s declined to comment.
University administrator Lombard is accused of logging on to a chat room online and describing himself as a “perv dad for fun.” The detective who wisely looked into the suspicious screen name says that Lombard admitted to molesting his own adopted son. All this was before allegedly inviting a stranger to travel to North Carolina from another state to statutorily rape his already-molested adopted son.
If Lombard is convicted, he faces a maximum of 20 years in prison. His arrest comes about a year after the Court decided that child rapists cannot be executed because “society” has “evolved” to the point where such executions would be “indecent.”
If this case goes to trial, it could be an interesting one to watch. But it will be just as interesting to watch the Duke faculty respond to these allegations. It didn’t take them long to respond when several white Duke Lacrosse players were accused of raping a black stripper. A whopping 88 professors signed a statement accusing the players of both racism and rape. Such was their regard for the presumption of innocence.
Perhaps even more stunning was the response of some professors after it became apparent that the white lacrosse players were innocent. After that became so obvious the school had to readmit the students, Professor Kate Holloway resigned her committee assignments in protest. By the way, the most common form of faculty protest these days is to refuse to work. Most people think this kind of protest is caused by arrogance. But the actual cause is a thing called “tenure.”
So it will be interesting to see how Duke faculty members respond to Frank Lombard. Because he is white, Lombard is fair game at Duke, isn’t he? But Lombard is also gay, so will that complicate things?
Unfortunately for Frank Lombard, the affidavit in support of his arrest warrant shows that this second Duke rape case will also have a strong racial component. According to a confidential source (CS) a man using the user name “cooper2” or “cooperse” logged onto an internet-based video chat room. CS saw him perform oral sex on an African-American child under the age of ten. He also performed other acts on the child, which are too obscene to be described in this column.
The user name “cooper2” has now been linked to Frank Lombard, the associate director Duke University’s Center for Health Policy. A second source has now alleged that “cooper2” has confessed to being “into incest” and that he has adopted two African American children.
The only good news coming out of this story is about Frank Lombard’s live-in homosexual partner. The affidavit in support of Lombard’s arrest warrant shows that he made special arrangements when molesting the child – sometimes even by drugging the child – to make sure his partner did not find out.
Records also indicate that Frank Lombard made a contribution to the Genesis Home in 2003. The Genesis Home is an organization that assists needy families in making a transition out of homelessness, in part by maintaining a child care center. The organization’s website features numerous photographs of African-American children under the age of ten.
The Associate Press (AP) did not mention the fact that the five-year old offered up for molestation was black. Bringing that fact to light might be damaging to the political coalition that exists between blacks and gays. Nor did the AP mention that the adopted child is being raised by a homosexual couple. Bringing that fact to light might harm the gay adoption movement.
I wrote this column because I believe that certain coalitions must be broken. And certain movements must be harmed. Let the political fallout begin.
The Marxists don't go after one of their own.
What? Use the Saul Alinsky technique of **personally** destroying someone who is a fellow Marxist? Nope! That technique is reserved for the enemy ( us).
And this society lets homosexuals adopt children. I’m surprised God hasn’t rolled a giant fireball across the country. Those poor kids. Many of them are rescued from an abusive home just to go to this? How horrible!
Money and political pull are the decider.
Ask Rosie. (albeit she does not live in N.C. )
Perhaps you meant 'whiteout'. That's where you publish a story after whiting out certain details.
That's rather rascist, isn't it?
What political coalition? Blacks are probably one of the most identifiably homophobic groups in the country. They only vote for the same people for different reasons, like libertarians and social conservatives voting for Republicans.
To All:
Google Frank Marshall Davis, who ‘mentored’ our Dear Leader in Hawaii between the ages of 10 and 17. Some mentor, all with the approval of Dear Leader’s grandparents.
Don’t worry about. We don’t have to execute him. Drop him in general holding after he is convicted and tell the inmates that he likes to rape little black boys. Have the guards take a 5 minute break and come back with a mop.

I want to live in a country that has courage to execute murderers and rapists not rely on back alley murders to do the work of justice.
According to Revelation, He'll be bowling soon enough!
So I did some digging on the local fishwraps’ websites about this story. The Durham Herald-Sun, my local paper, had absolutely nothing regarding this, at least not that I could find because their website is a total piece of badly-designed drek. I know this is an old story, but you’d think there’d be SOME angle on it, wouldn’t you?
The Raleigh News & Observer had one story that I easily found...in which Lombard’s neighbors refused to let reporters into the neighborhood to talk to them. Turns out that Lombard lives in north Durham in a “co-housing” community, which is a place where “residents share common space” and make decisions “communally.”
No stories on Genesis House. No mention of the race of the child(ren?) involved. No cries for Lombard’s head from the Duke or the greater Durham community. Nothing.

How charmingly PC!
So do I, but until that deficiency is corrected, it will have to do.
