Over 18 years ago, 3 Duke lacrosse players were arrested for raping black stripper ,,Crystal Mangum. The case was prosecuted by corrupt DA Mike Nifong, who withheld exculpatory evidence, eventually leading to his disbarment and dismissal of the charges.
However, the 3 players have lived their lives under the cloud of the original accusations and many including our own , StPC have insinuated that they were still guilty
Today Ms Mangum admitted to fabricating the entire story. She is currently incarcerated for murder.
I had immediate knowledge of this case since one of the indicted was my son's best friend. It was beyond belief that the accusers charges were true. The charges were subsequently dropped due to Nifong's malfeasance but today the lingering cloud of guilt ,over the 3 Duke players was finally lifted.
My son's friend , a mathematics savant, has had a very successful career on Wall Street, but not before ,years after charges were dropped, he was denied housing in Philadelphia, while attending Wharton. He . was still listed on the National sex offenders' list.
His lawsuit against Duke was settled, when Duke realized that his demand was non-negotiable.
Today, I hope he can enjoy the long overdue verdict of not guilty.
