I told you before I was surprised that this story was kept quiet for so long.

It happened on the 14th, and the first threads on this story are on FR about the 26th -- it may have been th 24th, but still! I remember that as soon as I heard it as breaking news on the local station somebody had already put up a thread by the time I got here within minutes.

And the other thing I remember is that by that time, those people had already printed up those huge fliers with ALL the pictures of them team on them and were hanging them all over Durham.

It most certainly WAS a rush to judgement and they never looked back.

I remember you saying that because the timeline really surprised me. As news hungry as this crowd is, that's a big gap... and another indication the coverage is not normal.
