Although it is hard to ignore if you watch the news, I tried. But this "case" is stranger than strange. It seems that there was no rape, the witness' (victim?) story keeps changing and the DA didn't bother to do basic interviews. Yet in all of this, the three young men have been punished. First by Duke University, then one by the City of Washington and, most of all, by the press. A poor choice of parties ended up ruining several lives. Yet, how many of us didn't attend some event that we wouldn't go to on a bet in later years? It is beginning to look as though these young men will have the opportunity to become rich at tax-payer's expense. Although I am not a big fan of law-suits, I believe the City of Durham and Duke University owe these kids more than "Never mind."
Anyone taking bets on when Reverend Jackson and the Black Panther Party will issue apologies?
