Crystal needed to continue working to support her Family despite a severe cevical spinal condition that gave her excruciating pain. This condition was corrected in 2010 following an operation by a Dr. Wilson in Durham. She has had no further problems following this surgery and has subsequently not needed analgesics

"Crystal needed to continue working to support her Family despite a severe cevical spinal condition that gave her excruciating pain."

This seems to be something from Crystal's so called memoir, published after it was established she was a false accuser.

If one suffers from a cervical spinal condition so severe, it is unlikely one would be able to perform the way Crystal performed in that video, especially considering she was supposed to be suffering from severe PTSD and was supposed to be in pain from injuries inflicted during the alleged rape.

You are no plausible, KEN(inny).

"Crystal needed to continue working to support her Family despite a severe cevical spinal condition that gave her excruciating pain."

While I will not defend anyone who considers Black Americans so inferior, I will point out the following:

Jefferson put a passage in the Declaration of Independence condemning slavery and the slave trade. Against his will it was struck from the Declaration.

According to many authorities Jefferson opposed slavery.

While he felt that Black people were inferior to Whites in many ways, he felt that this should not be a reason for denial of rights to black citizens.

You seem to be ducking another question. What basis do you have in fact to believe Crystal was raped on the night of 13/14 March 2006?

Anonymous said...

KEN(inny)HY(pocrite)DE(luded)RA(cist)L:

I point out again, the account of Crystal's cab theft comes from police records compiled before the events of 2006. According to those records, Crystal was working as an entertainer in a topless club, was giving a cab driver a lap dance when she stole his keys and then stole his cab and led the police on this chase.

If she had such a severe condition it is unlikely she could do all this.

If she indeed did have this surgery in 2010, surely SIDN(inn)EY can come up with the records and publish them on his blog.

From: http://colorlines.com/archives/2011/04/crystal_gail_magnums_dark_twisted_past.html

"Mangum was combining the prescription drugs methadone, Ambien and Paxil. She was clearly impaired during at least one meeting with investigators."

And:

"During the performance, Mangum, who had been drinking, 'appeared to be unsteady on her feet and fell to the ground.'"

And:

"Mangum, who later blacked out on the lawn, used a racial and sexual slur and claimed to be a cop."

SIDn(inn)EY, KEN(inny), have you heard about the Brian Banks case? He was a man knowingly, falsely accused of rape who was persuaded by his lawyer to take a plea bargain. The false accuser was paid $1.5 million by the school district.

After Brian Banks spent 6 years in prison, the false accuser admitted she had lied. According to reports, she will not be prosecuted and she will not be required to return her $1.5 million settlement.

Be enlightened as to why some of us vigorously oppose this vendetta against innocent Caucasians falsely accused of rape.

Brian Banks is a Black Man. This comment was posted on Liestoppers:

"This is the kind of thing the AA community SHOULD get enraged about,
not losers/liars like Mangum!

His lawyer sold him out!"

So why is the Black community not enraged by a Black woman falsely accusing a Black man or rape just to get rich.

There is some credibility to the allegation that Crystal falsely accused the Lacrosse players of rape in order to collect a big settlement from them and their families.

If the allegations Crystal made have merit, why has she not filed a civil lawsuit?

Anonymous @ 5:02 said : "Mangum was combining the prescription drugs methadone, Ambien and Paxil"......... She was under the care of a Doctor who specializes in pain management. Our resident Physicians Dr. Harr and Dr. Orgel can confirm that these are not unusual medications to treat a neuro-skeletal cervical spine disorder that is complicated by depression and PTSD. When she was on these medications she was advised to refrain from alcohol which she did. It's little wonder that Crystal had depression when, thanks to the Duke LaX Defense Team, she was widely believed to be a heroin addict working the streets for her next fix and having few resources to combat these anonymous slanders. When confronted with the fact that she had obtained a Bacelors's Degree and was working towards a Master's all they could do is try to disparage the standards of her alma mater. Her professors and her pastor can atest to her character. She is respected and participating member of her faith community

No it wasn't. Crystal was impaired when she arrived at the party. There is no evidence that she was given a drug at the party. Chloral Hydrate is nothing but pure speculation.

What basis do you have in fact that the members of the Lacrosse team had Chloral Hydrate at the party, that anyone had Chloral Hydrate at the party?

KEN(inny), explain this. You have stated the accused Lacrosse players knew there was no evidence against them. Why would their attorneys launch this extensive campaign to discredit Crystal if they knew the evidence would discredit her?

Some things that discredited her were the identification procedures. She could not describe her assailants. She could not reliably identify her assailants at two photo lineup procedures. At the third procedure, as has been pointed out before, she identified two men who had not been at the party as her assailants, she said her third assailant had a mustache but identified a man as her third assailant who had never had a mustache.

If you want to know what discredited Crystal, look at what corrupt prosecutor NI(nny)FONG did in the case. It was not the defense team who were representing innocent men. That scenario is but a figment of your deluded, racist mind.

Kilgo was the person who alleged there was a LAX player who was present but not involved in a rape he witnessed. I repeat, Kilgo is someone who used to post on J4N that he knew more about the Lacrosse case than any other person on the planet. When asked to back up his claims, I repeat, Kilgo always backed down. Now he has run away from j4N, probably because he does not want to admit he is a fraud.

Using Kilgo as the source for this implausible story you tell does not give a plausible, let alone a factual, basis for for belief in the existence of this unidentified LaX player

"Anonymous @ 5:02 said : 'Mangum was combining the prescription drugs methadone, Ambien and Paxil'......... She was under the care of a Doctor who specializes in pain management."

The full quote was to the effect that Crystal was impaired when she talked to the AG's investigators. Like SIDN(inn)EY's failure to mention that when Reginald Daye was charged with assaulting a woman, the charge was dismissed by the DR, that omission was probably intentional.

A person who is under care of a pain management physician does not indulge in making the rounds of the ERs looking for pain meds. He or She calls his/her physician if he or she has persistent pain. After the night of 13/14 March 3006, when Crystal had not been raped, Crystal did go around to local ERs requesting pain meds.

Is this an admission that Crystal does not have a case? It seems so.

If there is new evidence to present, if Crystal has such support, why has no one come forward in more than 6 years to give such evidence?

The obvious explanation, which you are trying to duck, Crystal does not have a case and never will have a case.

Ken: When she was on these medications she was advised to refrain from alcohol which she did.

She claimed that she had 2 22 ounce Ice House Beers (higher alcohol content), apparently in addition to the medications. The equivalent of 4+ beers is not refraining from alcohol.

Since Ken does not make mistakes, I can only conclude that he believes Crystal is a liar.

Where were all of you who support Crystal when SIDN(inn)EY held his non news conference?

KEN(inny) no one believes that racist crap you try to peddle as the truth about Crystal. The truth is that she falsely accused three innocent men of raping her.

She does have a history of mental instability, promiscuity, drug abuse, and, most telling of all, filing false rape charges. That information did not become public because the innocent players' attorneys defended them.

Why hasn't Crystal filed suit for defamation? It is because she hasn't got a case.

The poster is correct. Mangum deserves a fair trial and then she deserves exactly what she gets. Enough of this immoral woman!

Those of us who who see this sorry woman's face in the local news have had enough of her. If she gets off this time, she will continue to break the law. I dont care what race she is......who gives a rip whether she is black or white? The point is that she killed a man. Harr and his ridiculous whackos need to post her bail and find her a lawyer or they need to stop their self serving crap. All of us know the intent......it is Nifong in blackface. Silly waste of time.
Ken. Whoever you are, get on a plane And come get this woman and get her the hell out of north carolina. Take her to canada and let her pole dance till it freezes over. I personally could care less. We have far too many decent people here who are trying to raise their kids and make a life.....and these people need help ......not this piece of trash.

Let's discuss the First Amendment again.

With reference to the New Black Panthers, who came to Durham during the Duke Rape hoax, called Colin Finnerth a dead man walking, and demanded that all three innocent defendants be found guilty, you said their activity was free speech protected by the Constitution.

If the Ku Klux Klan or the Aryan Nation came to Durham and demonstrated calling Crystal a Murderess and demanding she be found guilty, would you call that Constitutionally protected free speech?

I think not.

This is something DA NI(nny)FONG said after he learned there was no DNA evidence linking the Lacrosse team members to the alleged rape:

""I would not be surprised if condoms were used. Probably an exotic dancer would not be your first choice for unprotected sex."

This is similar to the statement, which you labelled as racist, that none of the Lacrosse players would have wanted to have sex with Crystal, forced or otherwise

SIDN9inn)EY H(ypocrite)ARR(acist):

Consider this:

"After one of the Duke University lacrosse team member accused of raping a stripper at a team party was verbally accosted by a heckler in the courtroom, his attorney was told by the judge that there would be no speedy trial for their client.

Judge Ronald L. Stephens told Reade Seligmann's attorneys that the case was not the only one on the docket for his courtroom and the case 'is not going to jump ahead of the line and be handled any differently.'"

This comes from http://crime.about.com/b/2006/05/19/duke-player-heckled-in-tense-courtroom.htm

For all your concern about a speedy trial for Crystal, you show no indignation over the denial of a speedy trial to the innocent Duke Lacrosse defendants.

I believe this discrepancy is racially motivated.

The question you were asked, the question you are dodging was, what basis do you have in fact to believe that Crystal was raped?

That you refuse to answer suggests you can not answer, which suggests you have no basis in fact.

If you have no basis in fact to accuse men of raping Crystal on the night of 13/14 March 2006, then to do so is slander.

Actually, I really did not expect you would be able to do much better than this. Thanks for living down to all expectations.

You do not speculate at all on whether or not the allegations Crystal Mangum made were true. You simply demand they be accepted as true, even though, as you have de facto admitted, there is no basis in fact to believe they were true.

The facts you dodge explaining are 1) Crystal alleged a DNA depositing rape. 2) Forensic examination revealed DNA deposition did not take place on the night of 13/14 March 2006. Although male DNA was found on Crystal, the only logical explanation is it was put there prior to the night 0f 13/14 March 2006. You may deny the evidence, but you have never refuted it.

So far as your other facts, the only physical finding was diffuse vaginal edema which in and of itself is not pathognomonic of rape.

What was recorded was findings consistent with rape. Specific findings of rape should have been recorded and none were. The recording was made by Tara Levicy(maybe now Tara Brown) who was not a fully trained experienced SANE and not credentialed to perform a SANE exam.

One person said Crystal was sober when she arrived. Two, who did not have anything to be self serving about, said she was impaired.

Detective Shelby's evaluation at the Kroger store was that Crystal was faking being impaired(when he administered smelling salts, which would have roused someone truly unconscious, Crystal started breathing through her mouth). You have not established as fact that Crystal was impaired at Kroger.

Neither have you established that Crystal was given a laced drink at the party. She was given a drink which was sipped then discarded.

So, KEN(inny), you still have not established that there is a factual basis for believing she had been raped.

The biggest thing you duck, again, is, CRYSTAL ALLEGED A DNA DEOSITING RAPE. FORENSIC EXAM OF THE RAPE KIT FOUND THAT DNA DEPOSITION HAD NOT OCCURRED.

First, not everything anyone says is Constitutionally protected free speech. In the case of the NBP demonstration in Durham, the NBP was trying to undermine the defendants' right to be presumed innocent, right to a fair trial. The point is, SIDN(inn)EY mis interpreted the First Amendment, as you do now.

Forensic exam of the rape kit materials confirmed that DNA deposition on Crystal did not occur on the night of 13/14 March 2006.

You have yet to explain how a DNA depositing rape could have happened yet fail to leave evidence of DNA deposition on the rape kit.

At approximately 11:50 p.m., I saw from my porch that a car had been stopped directly in front of 610, and noted that two young women, both appearing to be African-American, were walking from the direction of the car and proceeded to the back-yard entrance of 610. One of the two was dressed in an extremely short tan skirt and was wearing high heels. Her hair was pinned up above her ears. The other woman was more conservatively dressed in pants and a sweater or blouse of some sort, and her hair was shoulder-length and curly. The two women briefly spoke with one of the men who was in the back yard. I remember hearing that he lived "at the other house," which in retrospect I assume to be the house on Urban Ave. that also was rented to Duke lacrosse team members. This man then left in the direction of Watts St., apparently to the residence to which he had just referred. Another young man spoke briefly with the two women just outside the back door of 610, and then proceeded indoors. At this point no one was outside of 610 besides the two young women."

The only neighbor who was interviewed by the police does not say whether or not Crystal was sober. This is not testimony that Crystal was sober.

I ask again, KEN(inny), are you making this stuff up as you are going along. If so, it does not add up to a basis in fact to believe Crystal was raped.

"Fact 5: She arrived at Duke University Hosp. in an unimpaired condition, as testified by those attending to her."

That may be a fact. But it does not establish that Crystal was given Chloral Hydrate at the party.

Evidence given by Dave Evans and Dan Foley, neither of whom had anything to be self serving about, was that Crystal was impaired when she arrived at the party.

With regard to you the so called "fact" to which referred in my last post, the fact that she was sober at Duke does not establish she was impaired at the Kroger Store. I repeat, Detective Shelby believed she was faking impairment, based on her reaction to smelling salts.

"Fact 6 : A Dr. and a nurse found evidence, that in their opinion, was cosistent with a rape."

The question a defense attorney would ask is, what specific evidence.

Tara or whoever might then give a list of findings that would be consistent with rape.

The attorney would then ask, where are these specific injuries documented in the record.

Tara or whoever could only reply, they are not documented in the record.

Then the attorney would ask, did you really find those findings and not document them in the record.

Tara or whoever could reply yes and the attorney would ask, Should a SANE nurse document specific findings in the record, to which Tara or whoever could only answer, yes. Tara or whoever would then admit that proper procedure to document findings was not followed, which tears away all credibility.

If Tara or whoever were to answer, No they did document the findings in the record, then they would have to explain why Tara or whoever said earlier that she did not document the findings.

That the record says findings consistent with rape or whatever does not establish in fact that a rape did not occur. Recordings of specific injuries would establish such in fact.

Not a fact. Crystal appeared to be grossly impaired at the time she arrived at the party and before she was given a drink. The people who observed her impairment had no reason for being self serving.

Incomplete story. Crystal sipped the drink and then discarded it. She drank Kim Roberts drink.

Is this omission deliberate? I think so.

KEN(inny) gives 9 so called facts which he claims establish a basis in fact to believe Crystal was raped.

KEN(inny), in fact, had three at bats in the same inning and struck out three times.

Now KEN(inny) will ask what Baseball has to do with the Duke Rape Hoax.

Ken, you have raised the lack of investigation by the DPD as "evidence" that Crystal was raped.

You have not adequately answered the questions I raised on the last thread.

I repeat them for your convenience here (with a few questions added). I ask you for individual answers to each question.


Ken, why did the DPD not conduct a bona fide investigation of one of the highest profile cases in Durham's history?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview Jason Bissey when they picked up his statement?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview other neighbors?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview Dr. Manly, the doctor who performed the partially completed SANE exam?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview other medical professionals at DUMC other than Levicy?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview the outcry witness at Durham Access until June?

Ken, why did the DPD not interview the Kroger guard until December?

Ken, why did the DPD not ask Kim to make identifications of Crystal's alleged attackers, particularly after Crystal had failed to make identifications?

Ken why did the DPD not ask Kim to make identifications after Crystal alleged in her written statement that six players had separated them just before the sexual attack?

Ken, why did the DPD not pursue the other three players?

Ken, why was the investigation essentially limited to taking one of Mangum's numerous versions of her complaint and merely selecting defendants?

Ken, why did Gottlieb's and Himan's supervisors not supervise their activities in one of the highest profile cases in Durham's history, particularly after many of the flaws in the investigation were highlighted in media coverage?

Ken, why did the DPD not ask Mangum any questions about the allegations in her written statement that were transparently false?

Ken, why did Nifong not insist that the DPD conduct a bona fide investigation?

Ken, why did Nifong not interview Mangum about her allegations?

Ken, does the word "frame" accurately describe a prosecution in which the police failed to conduct a bona fide investigation and there was nothing other than fatally flawed identifications to link the accused to the alleged crime?

"It is a fact that DNA depositon can not be timed. The unknown DNA found could have been deposited at anytime within a 48 hour time period."

That is correct. Therefore you can not claim that the finding of DNA on Crysta's person establishes that it was deposited on the night of 13/14 March 2006, or that it was deposited forcibly.

The fact is, Crysta alleged a DNA depositing rape. That meant she was alleging that males forcibly deposited semen on her person. Forensic exam of the rape kit materials found no semen. That is NO SEMEN. Both the SBI Crime lab and DNA Security found that NO SEMEN had been deposited. Ergo, no semen depositing episode had happened on the night of 13/14 March 2006. Ergo, no DNA depositing rape had occurred on the night of 13/14 March 2006.

Your statement that the finding of male DNA on a woman's person means a 48 hour window in which the DNA could have deposited. So, how do you establish, in the face of a rape kit which showed no semen had been deposited on her person on the night of 13/14 March 2006, that the male DNA was deposited on the night of 13/14 March 2006. How do you exclude the nights of 11/12 March or 12/13 March 2006?

In the face of the rape kit evidence, you can not establish it happened at the Lacrosse party.

So what. That is speculation. It does not establish as fact that Crystal was drugged at the party, especially since two people at the party, who had nothing to be self serving about, observed Crystal was impaired when she arrived at the party.

When the police searched the house, did they find Chloral Hydrate? It has been documented that the inhabitants of the house made no attempt to clean up the house after the party.

I must make a correction. I said that Detective Shelby interracted with Crystal at the Kroger store. It was Detective Shelton who interracted with her and came to the conclusion that she was faking unconsciousness.

Correction to my post of 2:37 PM

I meant to say that the forensic exam established that semen was not deposited on Crystal's person on the night of 13/14 March. Therefore it did establish that the male DNA found on Crystal's person was not deposited on the night of 13/14 March 2006.

I would lean more towards Dr. Harr's suggestion of selective justice, in North Carolina, that's based on class and color.

Dr. Harr's suggestion of selective justice is true in that Mr. NI(nny)FONG prosecuted the innocent Lacrosse players because he thought going after Caucasian men from well to do families would win him votes from the Black community. It wasracially biased FOR Crystal.

What made Crystal vulnerable to discreditation was the fact that she falsely accused Lacrosse players of raping her. What did she think would happen if she falsely accused men of raping her?

What actually did discredit Crystal was the DA's case fell apart and it became obvious he was wrongfully accused men. One thing that brought it down was the forensic testing of the rape kit which documented no rape had occurred. Another thing was his attempt to conceal evidence favorable to the defense. Yet another was the improper lineup which brought out that Crystal was incapable of identifying assailants. Yet another was that when she was finally interviewed by the DA's office, 9 months into the case, she could not recall what exactly happened(confabulation?).

Her history of criminal behavior, mental instability, drug and alcohol abuse, showing up for work impaired all was established before she precipitated the phony rape case.

........... Here's a quoute from a Tutorial for a Master's degree from The University of Liverpool "When the history anticipates the recovery of semen from a rape victim but the forensic evaluation fails to find any semen evidence, there are a number of potential explanations besides the obvious suggestion of a false complaint. No semen will be recovered if none was deposited (sexual dysfunction, condom use). Mechanical elimination (drainage, hygiene activities), biological elimination (degradation) or physiologic dilution or any combination may yield negative results" Dr. Manly did report she saw what she thought was semen and that, along with what Crystal reported and the physical findings, she didn't bother to confirm that what she saw was semen. By the time it was tested for it had undergone biological degredation.

Ken: Your conclusion that this indicated a frame of the Players is not the one I would draw.

Ken, if this was not a frame, then why were Evans, Finnerty and Seligmann indicted with what Nifong later conceded was "no credible evidence" to support the charges?

Ken, if this was not a frame, why would the DPD not investigate if they had "no credible evidence" to support the charges?

Ken, do you really believe that Gottlieb, Himan, Clayton, Ripberger, Lamb, Hodges, Chambers and other officers are all grossly incompetent?

Ken: Other then this query, which I find contains a false premise [the failure of the DPD to ask Mangum any questions about the allegations in her written statement that were transparently false]...

Ken, in her written statement, Mangum made the following allegation:

"ADAM EJACULATED IN MY MOUTH, AND I SPIT IT OUT ONTO THE FLOOR, PART OF IT FELL ONTO THE FLOOR AFTER HE PULLED HIS PENIS OUT."

With no DNA. And no semen.

Ken, why did the DPD not ask Crystal any questions about that allegation?

Unfortunately, judging from the way Crystal described the rape, which was memorialized in the police affidavit.

Sexual Dysfunction leading to no deposit of semen. Crystal alleged that she was ejaculated upon.

Condom use: Crystal said her assailants did not use condoms.

Mechanical elimination: It was alleged that Crystal was wiped down, and a towel was recovered which had David Evans' DNA. However, it did not have any of Crystal's DNA. There was no evidence Crystal was wiped down.

Biological degradation, dilution: there was not enough time for this to happen. The rape kit was taken hours after the alleged rape was alleged to have happened.

Your quote from this Master's tutorial is irrelevant and does not make a case for you that a rape happened.

In an earlier post, many weeks ago, I pointed out that it was a failure on the part of Dr. Manly not to do a wet mount. Your response was, it would have been "cya medicine" and not necessary to do a wet mount. In any event, the wet mount was not done, so it was not documented that Dr. Manly saw semen.

In any event, sperm degrade but semen has markers which do not. The tests which were done were Acid Phosphatase and PSA.

Acid phosphatase is meaningful only if it is positive. It is presumptive but not definitive evidence that semen is present and that further testing should be done to confirm the presence of semen. Crystal's rape kit tested negative for acid phosphatase.

DNA Security tested for PSA and found the assay was also negative. That combination of results is definitive evidence that semen is not present.

The forensic testing of the rape kit definitively established that a semen depositing rape did not happen on the night of 13/14 March 2006, even if KEN(inny) denies it.

The tutorial you cited is irrelevant. Judging from the rape Crystal alleged, which was memorialized in a police affidavit, none of those events, which the tutorial says would explain a failure to find semen on a rape kit apply to the rape Crystal alleged.

Try again, KEN(inn)Y. You will only demonstrate, again, that you are not an astute or profound thinker.

SIDN(inn)EY's suggestion is an expression of his outrage that innocent Caucasians were not wrongfully convicted of rape on the word of a black woman who was falsely accusing them.
