Sounds like she is also a bipolar crack whore.

Here’s hoping she doesn’t get Nifonged by the DA.

Which would make it the second time she tried to kill someone. The first is when she tried to run over a cop with a stolen car.

They need to lock this woman up for a long time. But I wonder if she will get off lightly again.

“The Durham police and fire departments have given several different times when today's incident occurred. A Durham police spokesman said it occurred at 11:55 p.m., and according to jail records, Mangum was brought in at 4:52 a.m. But police said in a news release earlier today that the incident occurred at 12:55 p.m. on Wednesday, while the fire department wrote in a news release that they responded to the call this morning at 4:56 a.m.”

Well, it's good to see the Durham authorities have toughened up the procedures and policies since the last go-round with Ms. Mangum. I'll just bet the neighbors were thrilled at the 3-hour long negotiations with someone whom I'm sure is a refined modern woman, her “boyfriend” whom I'm certain was a model of stoicism and her three cherubic children all of whom I feel confident slept through the entire ordeal. What a night in Durham!

If you followed the story back then, this isn’t what they ordered. This was a “substitute.”

That’s probably not far from the truth....meaning that’s what they’re planning for her defense. ARGH!

I was wondering if you’d dust off the old ping list, abb. Glad you kept it. Is anyone really surprised that this woman is finally in jail?

I’m seeing this thing through to the end. I’m still active over on the Liestoppers bulletin board.

Wow—what a winner Crystal is! (/sarc>

I get so angry when I think of all those young men whose reputations she besmirched.

I hope she never got a cent of her book earnings and that it was all tied up in litigation.

It’s amazing that her children were never taken away from her.

Good for you! I tried to join them again after they switched boards, but I fell through the cracks when it came to getting approved. I lived by LieStoppers during the hoax! And I still have Tony Soprano’s Whitesnake Rockstar parody on my iPod (even though he has since removed it from youtube). That was my favorite of his parodies. Nifong and the guitars!

Keep us up to date, abb. This case never seems to end. I hope Reade, Collin, and Dave are doing well.

I was surprised to see that one of the defendants’ attorneys is representing John Edwards. Maybe I shouldn’t be. NC is a small state.

"Crystal is just so WRONG. Loser, ugly, mean as a junkyard dog wrong!"

She is the end product of LBJs Great Society.

Subsidize dysfunction, and you get generations of dysfunction. Sad for her and all the victims of that Utopian madness.

Has Nifong (dumbass that he is) finaly figured out he threw away his career for a nasty, lying, skanky ho?

Does Cy let Nifong forget for one minute he screwed up their lives for a nasty, lying, skanky ho?

Will Clakki (dancing queen that s/he is) perform a benefit for babygirl’s bond?

Will precious scream at the sight of every white person she sees in the jail?

Inquiring minds want to know.

:-)

Officers said Mangum gave them a fake name, "Marella Mangum," and age, prompting the identity theft charge. She also resisted the officers who responded to the scene, according to police documents. She has been ordered to have no contact with Walker.

OMG!!!!! She gave them her sister's name! How low is that?
