he authorities in NC are hoping that we sheep will just go away and forget the injustice brought upon innocent men with the full armed persuasive power of the police and the judicial system.

I'd agree, except that the AG used very strong language when exonerating the LAX players to the extent where one would get the impression that he is encouraging a lawsuit.

"In a video recorded at 12:31:26 a.m., she is talking to one of the party attendees saying 'I'm a cop' and making other comments which were difficult to understand," the report said.

"You're under arrest, sugar."

Regardless.

Al was wrong and he needs to ‘fess-up.

Race-baiting Scum-bag that he is.

[Al Gator]

Oh I know, but I won’t be holding my breath. :-)

I find odd that no charges were filed against Crystal - that makes a lawsuit far more difficult and gives fodder for the likes of the talking head Georgia somebody to keep implying that the guys did do something bad.

"Nifong should be in prison."

...along with Mangum, at least one of Nifong's investigators and probably others.

Get ready for the mother of all civil suits.

[roaddog727]

Neither shall I.

But it had to be said, in no uncertain terms.

Against the accuser, that's affirm.

Even agaisnt Nifong it will be somewhat of a challenge as the Duke three will have to establish "malicious prosecution" which is easier said than done. The cab driver who Nifong arrested on a two year old dismissed warrant will probably have an easier task of proving that, IMO.

A guy who works at a North Durham strip club phoned in to a local talk radio show about 11 months ago and said he remembered when this same Crystal Mangum came in to audition at his club. He says she danced around wildly and out of control. They asked her to stop and she kept on dancing. They shut off the music and she kept on dancing. They had to physically remove her from the stage. When they went back-stage several minutes later they found her lying on the floor, still dancing. A total burn-out.

Having received a complaint, if the AG’s office fails to prosecute Nifong etal, then they are liable to prosecution as well. Best thing they can do is hang them all out to dry and put paid to the whole fiasco. At this point, federal involvement is almost a certainty.

Al Sharpton can personally apologize to the boys on his radio show and then fire himself...

That's no way to talk about a highly decorated police officer, dammit!

What a pass-the-popcorn moment it will be if/when this all comes to trial and the cel footage of Nifong’s “star witness” is shown to the jury.

[roaddog727]

“Al Sharpton can personally apologize to the boys on his radio show and then fire himself...”

That would be great!

Sad that it will never happen......

[Bonaparte]

Remember "Clepatra Jones"?

[LeftiesBinWhinin]

Ah, yes...Angie Dickinson...love those..er...that .38 she’s holding!

[Moose4]

One interesting thing I took out of the report, even though it’s not really germane to Crazy Crystal and the hoax...

So apparently “Nikki” (Kim Roberts) and a white bystander exchanged racial slurs as she was leaving with Crazy Crystal. Did you notice that even though she slurred first, she then called 911 and reported people yelling racial slurs “at cars that were driving down Buchanan”? There was no evidence that anybody said anything more to her, or Mangum, than that one exchange. Sounds like filing a false report trying to get the lacrosse players in trouble.

If only . . .

Wish the media would go after him with the same fury they went after the lacrosse players.
