I too would like that Group of 88 to be held accountable for falsely accusing and helping to destroy the lives of the white lacrosse players accused of rape:

The Group of 88 was a group of 88 professors at Duke University all of whom signed a controversial advertisement which was published two weeks after a woman falsely claimed to have been raped by members of Duke's lacrosse team. The advertisement, which appeared in the Duke Chronicle on April 6, 2006, contained language implying that the charges were true.

Later, of course, the group of 88 claimed their words were mis-interpreted and they tried to backtrack. But, as far as know, not a single one of them faced ANY suspension, sanction or firing, meaning justice was not entirely served in this case.

I think one of them is even a dean or department head now.
