Crystal Gale Mangum, progressive heroine and the accuser in the infamous Duke Lacrosse Rape Case, is in the news once again:
Durham police arrested Mangum for attempted murder, arson, and identity theft after responding to a domestic disturbance call: Durham police arrested Duke lacrosse accuser Crystal Gale Mangum, 33, late Wednesday after she allegedly assaulted her boyfriend, set his clothes on fire in a bathtub and threatened to stab him.Authorities charged her with attempted first-degree murder, five counts of arson, assault and battery, communicating threats, three counts of misdemeanor child abuse, injury to personal property, identity theft and resisting a public officer. …
Mangum is the author of the memoir “Last Dance for Grace.” She was a student at North Carolina Central University in 2006 and also worked as an exotic dancer when she performed at the now infamous Duke lacrosse party.
It was there, she claimed, that three white members of the team trapped her inside a bathroom and raped and sexually assaulted her.
That’s right. The darling of the race-baiters, like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, class-baiters and Feminists is cuckoo pants and criminal herself. Allegedly. (I’ll use allegedly; pity no one surrounding the Duke rape case hoax, including prosecutor Michael Nifong, gave the lacrosse players that same courtesy) We all knew she wasn’t the angelic victim the Left portrayed her to be. But, what’s worse, so did the Left.
You see, to the Left, the truth does not matter. What matters is their ultimate agenda and the narratives they have set – in stone – to further the same.

I detect a bit of “weed” ...
Agreed, for the most part. The problem I see of placing such a false-accusation boomerang effect “out of play” in cases of he-said/she-said is that it could then be misapplied to even cases where there is demonstrable proof of false-accusation... for example, one guy I knew in my national guard unit was going through a bit of a legal battle because of accusations by his wife of domestic violence... despite the dates in her sworn statement being dates he was deployed overseas (with the orders to prove it).
It is a tragedy a “deeply distrubed,” “drug-addled stripper” still has custody of her children.
> yes, thats the spin, its always the answer to any violence, use the tea thing.
Damn that Orange Pekoe and Pekoe Cut black!!
apparently some frat had an off campus party
making fun of black history month.
now, blacks and radicals are using the incident to
demand grievances from the university.
and the university agrees. a black safe zone on campus seems a bit contrived.
looks like jesse jackson and al sharpton.
Ping!
Good sentiment, but that syntax needs work.
The thing I don’t understand in all of this is, I don’t recall such an out cry when that black professor ranted about killing off all whites in his class and the students clapped?
Scotter Libby got years in jail for supposedly lying to federal officials, Crystal Mangum should have been in prison.
Surely, the 80 (?) Duke professors that condemned the innocent students, will come to the resuce again.
this is just another example of the “democrat plantation”:
denying others free speech,
exploiting race in a reverse racism,
demanding special services for blacks.
Racist! Her problems are the result of those white boys who did’t assault her and didn’t rape her. Anyone with any sensitivity and political consciousness could understand how a nonassault and nonrape by white boys could drive a woman of color to do what she did.
Do you understand now?
They paid her to dance? The rest of her must be gorgeous.
She looks real dirty.
They didn’t get what they bargained for, literally.

That’s a good link. Thanks. I bookmarked it for future reference.
She looks high.
She had a serious criminal history BEFORE she falsely accused successful white boys she was seeking a “payday” from. This new incident is certainly no surprise. Just watch. She’ll skate, even though she should have a net thrown over her before she kills somebody. The woman is nothing but a racist psycho scumbag whore.
The broke, unemployed, disgraced Mike Nifong.
Did you ever play "pull the string" at an amusement park? (snicker snicker)
Her drag queen cousin is not gorgeous, but is purtier than precious.
