RADAR ALERT:
Nifong: The Tip Of The Iceberg
Your mission this week, should you decide to accept it, is to familiarize yourself with the Duke case.
"This woman has destroyed everything I worked for in my life," said David Evans, former Duke lacrosse player recently exonerated of sexual offense and kidnapping charges. Crystal Gail Mangum, single mom and "exotic dancer" put Evans and two other young men, as well as their families and friends, through 395 days of hell. And it easily cost these families a million dollars each; all to keep innocent young men from 30 years in prison. Mangum was able to maintain her deceit for so long because she had the enthusiastic help of Durham County District Attorney Michael Nifong.
Evan's comment rings true for many men falsely accused of rape, sexual assault and domestic violence. Prosecutors and researchers say that half of all allegations of rape turn out to be false. In many cases, the D.A. goes ahead with the prosecution of the innocent, willfully ignoring the fact the accuser admitted she lied. And it's becoming common knowledge that some women file false charges against their partners to assure sole custody of children during divorce.
These offenses can only occur when due process is not respected; something that, unfortunately, is all too common. Yet mainstream media is portraying this as it it were an isolated case.
