It's been several years since these innocent players were cleared but the fallout from this is still around.

What amazed me was how fast the story was dropped by MSM. Where are the made for TV Movies about the injustice of the whole affair? If the players falsely charged were black (role reversal) you can bet your life savings this story wouldn't have been dropped like a hot potato.

But the story that shouldn't have been dropped and should have been reported in more detail was the reprehensible behavior of the Duke professors and the president of the University. Their behavior was nothing short of despicable. I don't know how the Duke president can look at himself in the mirror. What a pathetic POS he is. He knew that the Lacrosse players were innocent and yet he didn't back them. Beyond despicable! He was the supreme coward and yet he kept his job. What's that say about the Duke community?

These are not the kind of people you would want to be in a foxhole with.

Agree! I wish someone with a deep bank account would either make a movie of this or a mini series. It would be spectacular if at different points in the movie they would intersperse comments by Nancy Grace, even as doubts grow and information begins to accumulate that this whole thing was a false allegation compounded by Mike Nifong’s intransigence.

"But the story that shouldn't have been dropped and should have been reported in more detail was the reprehensible behavior of the Duke professors and the president of the University."

The story that shouldn't have been dropped was also the coverup and scandal by Durham city officials, the Durham Chief of Police, the Durham County Sheriff's office, the Durham County District Attorney's ENTIRE STAFF, all the local newspapers and TV stations that allowed the coverups, the NC State Attorney General, and even the North Carolina Governor himself. This was a scandal of major proportions that got swept under the rugs of a rotten, filthy system of justice. This state is one of the most corrupt I have seen. There was even a situation where the Raleigh Police helped a Durham police officer out of a jam after a 4 am accident.
