Wow. I have NO words for her. Trifling comes to mind, though. *smh*

WOW.

They announced on the news yesterday that two out of the three players have been invited back to Duke and are allowed to re-join the lacrosse team if they want to. So far, it's not known if they're going to take Duke up on the offer or not.

Accuser changes story

New version comes from Dec. 21 interview

JOSEPH NEFF

Judge orders paternity test in Duke lacrosse case

In her latest statement to investigators, the accuser in the Duke lacrosse rape case changed her account again about when the alleged gang rape occurred, who attacked her and how.

Defense attorneys filed the statement in court today, arguing that it was more evidence that the woman is an unreliable witness.

The woman adjusted the timing of the assault to earlier in the evening, a time point preceding the well-documented alibi of one accused player, Reade Seligmann. The defense, however, introduced yet more alibi evidence for Seligmann: he was on the cell phone with his girlfriend during the height of the attack as the accuser now times it.

The new version of the events comes from a Dec. 21 interview by Linwood Wilson, chief investigator for Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong. The statement marked the first time anyone from the District Attorney's office discussed the case with the woman since charges were filed in April. The interview came less than a week after a private laboratory director testified that he and Nifong agreed not to report DNA evidence favorable to the three accused players.

Ok, through all of this yuck-muck, I just have one question....why did she do this? There was no financial incentive there. And its not like she was an "average jane" that willingly participated in something (ex. consentual group sex) that she would later be embarassed about so she makes up a story of rape. I really wonder why she would do this?

Well, it was as I was originally saying quite some time back, now this is only a guess and all....just a guess....I'm reaching here....what's the term called again....uhhh....

You think that might have something to do with it?

I don't think this is the reason at all, given her occupation and the KNOWN scrutiny and judgements that it brings.

Maybe her baby's daddy is a team member and he didn't want to publically acknowlege that he (in T Pain's voice) "was in love with a stripper"... so this was her wat to get back at him..or them..or whoever.

I don't know...

That seems like a reach. I think the most likely scenario is that she was in someway demeaned and decided to get back at them.

For 15+ pages, you posters condemned the lacrosse team, and the accused players, ignoring all of the evidence and comments from defendents, their team mates, their families, and their lawyers.

Not one bit of incriminating DNA was found, although semen from five others was found on the girl and on her panties - proving her statement "no sex for a week" to be a lie. Not one piece of evidence has been presented, except the ever-changing story of the girl.

I wonder if any of the 15 pages of accusers will now offer an apology, or maybe an "I was mis-informed"?

Unfortunately, the accuser is making things worse by continually running her mouth. I will finally admit that this case is looking more and more like another Tawana Brawley...

From MOHO/POV, unfortunatly for all involved in this, you may be correct.
One person DID walk away from the Brawley matter "untouched"; Rev Al.

Seeing how the Duke players are not on here, I'm not sure who you think should get an apology on here.

I never understand that line of thinking.

shinerbock · #12 01-15-2007, 02:45 AM

I didn't go back all 15 pages, but I imagine they are saying that the people who were firmly against the Duke kids owe an apology. I don't see an apology as necc, or anything for that matter, but maybe a "I was mistaken" could be appropriate. There were quite a few people who were automatically against these guys for no good reason. Of course, I'm just trying to clarify the previous post, I'm not demanding anyone do anything. I do think it is a valuable lesson regarding taking a side without any evidence to support it.

This keeps getting better. Thank you so much for making it harder for sexual assault victims to have their stories believed......binch...
