Duke rape charges dropped.

Citizens for 81 · 12-22-2006, 01:49 PM

The rape charges have been dropped, but the charges for kidnapping and sexual assault are still going ahead.

These poor guys. When the hell are they going to let these guys get on with their lives.

It's about time. They didn't have any evidence to support their case. Just another example of a chick trying to get paid.

White people around the world rejoice. But seriously...it is kinda bad because this kinda divided the US in black and white like OJ did. I am glad it is finally over

dall-assblows · 12-22-2006, 05:14 PM

but that girl changed her story countless times. i'm no judge but i think that they should charge her with a false report after all is said and done

hooskins · 12-22-2006, 05:16 PM

yeah I agree, but at the same time the dudes are still gonna be charged for sexual assault and kidnapping.

So I guess it is not over yet, but the rape element is done with.

the reporter on tv said kidnapping could be as simple as moving a person from one room to the next

Thank God that the charges were dropped, that was possibly the most rediculous thing ever Duke's Lax program is fucked now at a year when they were at their best.

Well I hope the courts do a good job and that appropriate justice is served. I'm not sure it is appropriate for anyone to have a strong opinion either way on this given the evidence that is available to us via the media.

I just hope people are smart enough not to make this a racial issue. Stupid people do stupid things and stupidity is always color blind.

Amen, I agree but sometimes that tends to happen. Obviously this is nothing like the OJ case, but unfortunately people like to blame things they are uncomfortable with, on race. I would not be surprised if that is what some people view this issue as.

Their troubles are far from over, but, given the paucity of evidence and the now highly questionable testimonial evidence of the stripper (i.e., she has changed her story so many times that she would get burned alive on the stand), this case will either get dropped or plead out to much lesser charges.

dmek25 · 12-23-2006, 08:48 PM

i look at this a different way. the poor girl with crappy lawyers. and the rich kids from duke with the best money can buy. the girl is barely educated, while the dookies are going to one of the best schools money can buy. to me its not about black or white, its about rich vs. poor
