Ouch! It's time for the accuser to get some pub and be asked the hard questions. It would appear she is now the one guilty of a crime. Read it all.
The prosecuting witness in this case responded to questions and offered information. She did want to move forward with the prosecution.
However, the contradictions in her many versions of what occurred and the conflicts between what she said occurred and other evidence, like photographs and phone records, could not be rectified.
Our investigation shows that:
The eyewitness identification procedures were faulty and unreliable. No DNA confirms the accuser's story. No other witness confirms her story. Other evidence contradicts her story. She contradicts herself. Next week, we'll be providing a written summary of the important factual findings and some of the specific contradictions that have led us to the conclusion that no attack occurred.


The atty general gave the impression that the accuser won't be charged because she is a head case and has a definite mental problem.

what would happen if it turns out stripperina did all this to try and ruin the dukies lives *strictly because they were white*? and then somehow admits it, either in an interrogation or on tape? what then?
ok, maybe she IS a dipshit loon. but will they charge her with a thought...er, "hate" crime? like they would if the races were reversed here? if she were white and the jocks black, would her being a loon dipshit absolve her from being prosecuted?
i tend to think not.....i also tend to think that whole "hate whitey" thing was a major aspect of her motivation to lie about all this.

Bloodrage bob,
You 'da man!!
Oh and to answer your "what if" about her being white and the offender being black?
See Kobe Bryant!!

What about those 88 scumbag "professors" at Duke who found the players guilty as soon as the charges were made? When do they get theirs? The only thing they are competent at professing is hate anbd bigotry (yes, it works both ways)

Exactly Conserview. They were rich and white. So in the tiny minds of the leftist professors, guilty!

Jeez. Charges were dropped. The system works. Now these fratboy douchebags get to blow their own victimhood trumpet.
Must you people turn EVERYTHING into right vs. left? What next? The Sanjaya / Driveby Media conspiracy?

hate crime? I think not. Attempted gold digger sans-settle-outta-court? More than likely.
My question is WHAT TOOK SO LONG? No DNA to support her claims.
That rape exam revealed she had been active within the past few hours and that she had abrasions. I still think something happened but looks like the team had nothing to do with it.

"Jeez. Charges were dropped. The system works."
When charged by an unethical prosecutor the system works only if you have enough money to defend youself or a lawyer who's a saint.
The Duke professors are like 90% of America's professors- leftist and politically correct stupid. You won't see very many of them apologizing for not believing in the presumption of innocence when it is politically correct not to.

FP, the lack of DNA against the team means nothing. I was jury foreman on a kidnap/gang rape case. No DNA found. Fortunately cooler, non-political officials became involved. Hopefully they nail that prosecuter to the wall.

I wonder when Amanda Marcotte will apologize for the things she said about those Duke kids...

I wonder when John Edwards will apologize for Amanda Marcotte. Also, for his wife having cancer.

Jayjay,
No kidding. I've thought of that stupid woman several times over the last few days. She messed up Kobe so bad, and she walked. Women who do this and ruin families and cost the states millions of dollars ought to be held in contempt. A little jail time might make them think about their actions.
As for the Duke faculty members - that list is out there. I hope they somehow get dragged down when this all settles out. Duke is smudged thanks to a moron for a president and those faculty members. If nothing else, it might make effete academics think twice before declaring 'being white' a crime. It will all boil down to who pays those academics' salaries and the civil slaughter that is due. Oh...can't forget the alumni.....they wield a lot of power.

zifnab, what is the relevance of your comment to this situation?
Posted by: JimK | Wednesday, April 11, 2007 at 10:46 PM
I am glad for these young men and their families that their ordeal, motivated by politically correct zeal, race-baiting, and the personal political aspirations of the prosecutor, is finally over.
However, after seeing the picture of the accuser, Crystal Gail Mangum, I must come to the conclusion that the Duke Lacrosse players must have been more "plastered" than they want to admit. Otherwise, if sober, though cleared of the charges, we would still have to prosecute them for
"Felonious Bad Taste"!
I mean, take a look at the picture. Unless really drunk and stupefied, why else would good looking young men like them want to see such a truly "nappy haired ho" strip, and on top of it, pay for it?!?! That is, unless theye were trying to make themselves barf-up all the liquor they'd ingested...

As soon as Edwards admits he used the email addresses of posters well wishes,sent to his wife to solicit funds?

pssstttttt, I wouldn't screw a black person........they cry to fucking much. If they would just stop , I might give it a go. Then again, I may be a redhead, but I don't quite make the weight, let alone the roots.
Happy trials.

Actually, black women may become extinct, since black men will only go after slutty white trash that they consider a "status symbol": "Lookie here, hows you like my new Nikes and my new white ho?"
