Nobody said they were exactly the same. They are similar for a number of reasons including:
1. Athletics
2. Allegations that were determined to be false
3. Race and ethnicity (there is still a race component with both Wanetta and Brian being Black--there is a notion that people are more willing to consider Black-Black victimization and allegations than Black-white)
4. Whether to prosecute the accuser (Wanetta may not be prosecuted)
5. How this will shape people's opinions of rape accusations
6. How this can shape the future of the accused (the Duke Lacrosse players still had their lives impacted by this)
