Peterson said she felt the African American community in Durham failed to rally around the accuser
Well, they voted for Nifong after he did absolutely everything he could to the Duke 3 short of lynching them.

Right. Once again, facts are just tossed aside and replaced with nonsense. Thank God that all people eventually die - we won't have to endure these particular idiots forever.

a jury declares guilt, not innocence. We are innocent until proven guilty.
Absolutely.

And Nifong and El-Amin don't care about the facts, they only care about PR. That is the defining characteristic of liberals. The idea around which liberalism coheres is that NOTHING actually matters except PR.

“Community member Beverly Jenkins said the fact that the accuser had not been charged with making false accusations proves Cooper has something to hide.’

Easily remedied. Indict her.

Jesse Jackson to Pay False Accuser’s College Tuition

April 14, 2007

Reverend Jesse Jackson said that his Rainbow/Push Coalition will pay the college tuition for a black stripper who made false rape allegations against white members of Duke University’s men’s lacrosse team. Jackson said that his organization is committed to making sure the 27-year-old divorced mother of two will be able to “convert her considerable creative skills into a more lucrative and less demeaning career.”

North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper has declared all charges against the Duke players will be dropped. DNA tests on all 46 of the lacrosse team’s white members failed to match any evidence taken from their accuser. Cooper characterized Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong, the originator of the case, as a “rogue prosecutor.”

Nifong defended his actions, saying he based his case on both history and instinct. “Look, white men have been raping black women for centuries,” Nifong explained. “If President Jefferson did it, why should I doubt that these college punks would do it? Why, I was tempted to do it myself when she reenacted the dance she did at the team’s party. My gut told me they were guilty. I just didn’t have enough time to produce the evidence I needed to complete the case.”

Jackson said that the “rush to exonerate the innocent has caused nearly everyone to overlook this woman’s tremendous talent.” “Despite considerable exonerating forensic evidence, this woman was able to convince a white prosecutor to accept her allegations and prosecute these white boys,” Jackson pointed out. “She also got 88 members of the Duke faculty to make a public statement condemning the lacrosse team. I’m telling you, she’s one persuasive mutha. There’s a future for her in my orgasm if she wants it.”

The woman, Crystal Gail Mangum (alias: Janette Rivers), is currently a student at North Carolina Central University. Mangum says she appreciates Rev. Jackson’s tuition offer and hopes to use it to pursue a major in “the performing arts or maybe creative writing.”

Duke has to move. No parent in his right mind would send a kid to ANY school within fifty miles of Durham NC at this point.

"People on death row get exonerated [all the time] and did you ever hear an attorney general come out and say [the exonerated individual] is innocent? It's a scandal," El-Amin said.

Yes, you booger eating moron! I've heard it a number of times, if evidence proves that someone was wrongly convicted of a crime, and NOT just in capital cases!

There simply wasn't any evidence of a crime ever having been committed. The last time I checked, you don't have a trial to see if there was a crime, and given this woman's history, nothing she accused anyone of should have been taken as truth.

If no crime was committed, then these players WERE innocent of any of the accusations.

Sigh...You just can’t make this stuff up, and you just can’t fix stupid. You can throw all the money in the world at some people, send them to college, and you still wind up with a rock with a diploma.

I guess it’s just something Cooper will have to live with — it beats going to Club Fed.

I really love that quote. If you don’t mind, I would even consider using it as my own Freep tag line.
