I hope Nyfong and Brodhead get sued into bankruptcy....if the university and the city get taken too it’s OK with me. Mr. District Attorney should also be tried on criminal charges. The university trustees should have reeled in Brodhead and the 88 Dwarfs before they did the damage they did. This is one storm of lawsuits where I’ll be rooting for the plaintiffs.

Parents should demand the resignation of the leftist professoriat before agreeing to send their children to a college or university. The leftist professoriat are child molesters—albeit in an unconventional, but no less damaging, sense.

[Cicero]

Thanks. That’s a wonderful read. Terrible, depressing, disgusting, but wonderful the way these families rallied around.

God bless them. Also God bless the lacrosse coach, who sounds like a wonderful guy.

I hope they sock it to the president and faculty of Duke.

Justice!

[Lewite]

I also agree. I am hoping that the judgment's for the Lacrosse players will be monumental and historic in proportions.

[Fred Hayek]

Not only should the lacrosse players get their millions, but they should be transferred to another university of their own choosing, all credits transferring, and Duke (along with the City of Durham) paying the entire freight. These lacrosse players should get out of Durham, flipping the middle finger on their way out. Take the money, say “bleep you very much” and get out. Hell, these universities have huge endowments - Yale’s and Harvard’s endowments have actually reached critical mass where THEY DON’T NEED TO CHARGE TUITION AT ALL TO ANY STUDENT IF THEY SO CHOSE.
Here’s to Durham becoming the next Detroit.

Duke ending up under new ownership and management wouldn't strike me as a sad ending; the present owners and managers seem to have outlived any usefulness they might have ever had.

But the school has to move; no parent in his right mind would send a kid to ANY school in or around Durham NC at this point. Those losers apparently view the voting franchise much as Hitler viewed the V2 rocket, i.e. as a revenge weapon, at least I can't think of another reason they might have voted 95% to return the Fong to office after the realities of the case were clearly understood. The only right way to look at a ****hole like Durham would be through the crosshairs of a Norden bombsight.

1. Nifong

2. the Durham DA's office

3. the Durham Police

4. Duke

5. the Duke 88

6. the Black Panthers 8. Al & Jesse

9. any one else who proclaimed them guilty.

[sgtbono2002]

I hope they get hit so hard the University has to close.

The 88 Professors need a good shellacking.

The whole thing was grossly out of control.

I sure hope they dont forget to sue Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackass too.

Thank you for posting this.
I have no sons, but one day I pray my daughter will marry some other womans son.
I lived in Cary, NC when this whole travesty of justice first erupted.
I claim nothing more than my own personal human intuition, the mere “feeling” that something was not quite right about the rape allegations. Yes, it was possible, but was it probable?
The whole thing stank from the beginning, and it had nothing to do with the race or wealth of either the accused or the accuser.

Nifong,Duke University, the residents and the police department of the City of Durham, and the entire spectrum of the “news media” are equally culpable in this witch hunt.
While I generally am the last person to think punitive lawsuits are justified...in this instance... I hope the young men who were falsely accused and their families will continue to show their courage, and for the sake of us all, file lawsuits against everyone involved.
I will not criticize them, however they decide to proceed.

[rickdylan]

You or I would likely be in prison under the same circumstances. The one thing that could happen here which might make our lives a bit safer would be for the lax players and Mike Pressler to put so merciless a legal beating on Duke and Durham that every psycho DA in the land would have to take note, and feel a bit less safe about prosecuting people simply for career building.

[SunkenCiv]

Nifong belongs in prison — not the tennis shorts prisons, the penitentiary.

None of the professors who carried on their racist campaign of hatred and vilification should be retained by Duke — and they should be brought up on charges in civil court, and their faces sued off.

[Rembrandt]

This is the way some strong Republicans are born. Get mugged by the Left, join the honest side.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

I hope all those guilty of slandering these boys get the hell sued out of them.They certainly deserve it.

[gdc314]

Let’s not forget Nancy Grace...

[Bonaparte]

So true, Rembrandt, so true.

[rickdylan]

At least one guy hasn't forgotten about Nancy Grace...

I hope, in time, as with all loss and wounds, this will heal for these families. My only advice is continue as you were. Don’t let anyone define you by this experience. Success is a great balm for broken hearts, so just keep your eye on the goal and all will be well. After four years (just got our case deleted from the Criminal Records after it was ordered over a year ago). Son is well, has job offers galore. He’s well ahead of his peers on so many levels and he’s still my hero. Love conquers all and with that, so will we.
