Transcript of narrative below
The Durham Police and the Durham prosecutors have mocked Reginald Daye’s family by convincing them to play the role of aggrieved family members spewing hatred towards Crystal Mangum.
These family members, like most uninformed and unenlightened people hold Crystal Mangum, the Duke Lacrosse victim/accuser, responsible for the death of Reginald Daye… her boyfriend at the time.
Recently, when Mangum has appeared in court for a hearing, Daye’s family would show up in the courtroom pews and with their glares shoot daggers at this young woman who has been charged with first degree murder in his death.
According to news sources, Prosecutor Charlene Coggins-Franks has even made a point of publicly pointing out their presence to the Court… taking the extra step of suggesting that some were still so distraught as to be weeping during the hearing.
Whether or not these courtroom theatrics were orchestrated by the prosecution, which is most likely the case, or the misguided creation of the Daye family itself, is unknown… but its intent is the same. The goal being to garner animosity against Mangum.
Prosecutors in this case need every possible advantage, as their case is non-existent. Evidence has readily established that Ms. Mangum was the victim of domestic violence, assault on a female, and false imprisonment by an alcohol intoxicated Daye.
Evidence furthermore supports that she stabbed him in self-defense, and that the wound she inflicted was not life-threatening.
Intubation of the esophagus instead of the trachea by medical staff at Duke University Hospital, as a complication of delirium tremens, was responsible for Daye’s brain death and cardiac arrest.
His subsequent elective removal from life support by Duke hospital staff resulted in his death… a death in which Mangum played no role.
A fraudulent autopsy report by North Carolina Deputy Chief Medical Examiner Clay Nichols served as the underpinning for the bogus murder charge against Mangum, and with the cooperation of the mainstream media, it has served to mislead the masses into believing Mangum was directly and solely responsible for his death.
The Daye family has bought into this fantasy and has been injecting their venom at an innocent person, Ms. Mangum… who is also a victim of their kin, Reginald Daye.
Surely, the prosecutors have represented themselves to the Daye family as sympathetic and empathetic fellow mourners out to get justice for Reginald, a valued member of society… but this is where the foolery begins.
It is unreasonable for the Daye family to think that the Durham Police and/or its prosecutors give a whit about Reginald… an African American man with a criminal record.
The contempt the police and prosecutors had for Mr. Daye is evidenced in their choice of an alias for him… using the initials of his first and last name, they came up with the moniker Richard Dong.
“Dong” is a vulgar slang word that refers to male genitalia… and its use, for the so-called alleged victim who they cared so much about, was inappropriate, offensive, and racist. Totally uncalled for.
Duke University Hospital had the decency, after Reginald Daye was admitted, to change his alias from Richard Dong to Richard Douglas.
The Daye family needs to stop being a prosecution puppet in the vendetta prosecution of Mangum and come to grips with the reality that they are being used by the prosecution in carrying out an injustice against an innocent person, Mangum.
If the Daye family wants to vent its hostility about Reginald Daye’s death, they need to direct it where it belongs… at Reginald Daye himself and the Duke University Hospital.
And, they need to cease being pawns of the prejudice prosecutors.

"I was trying to do a little edit on the YouTube video to make it better, however, I made a mistake and messed it up."
So de facto you did improve it.
"The video is still available directly from YouTube, but I'll have to replace the video link when I have a little time."
That is sad news.
"Right now I am busy working on a flog and its video. Hopefully will have it completed soon."
Another exercise in how you deal with facts? A demonstration as to how to conceal evidence to establish your fantasies as facts?
SIDNEY HRR:
"The facts that I use are directly from the prosecution discovery itself... police reports and medical records."
No, what you present from the data you improperly accessed are distortions of facts.
"As far as Mr. Daye is concerned, he was intoxicated the night of April 2-3, 2011...(fact: He had a blood alcohol of 296 mg/dL)."
If he had that high a blood alcohol.he would have been comatose. His liver on autopsy would not have been normal.
"Daye did abuse Ms. Mangum in early April 3, 2011. She had photo-documented swelling and puncture wounds, there's a photo do document that Daye busted down the locked bathroom door to get at Mangum, and he admitted to dragging her by her hair... (With clumps of her hair found at two sites.)"
The medical records say that there was no evidence that Ms. Mangum was beaten. The photos you published did not show evidence of a beating. Crystal, herself, did not claim self defense until after she had been charged ith murder 1 and was facing a life sentence. A neighbor of Mr. Daye heard a woman's voice in Mr. Daye's apartment heard a woman screaming, I'm going to f--k you up.
You say you deal in Facts? HAH! KAH! HAH! BAH!
You knowWhen, Sidney, now that you got rid of your resident hater (Kenhypocrite), there's a good chance they might stop treating this as a hate site. Marbella you won't have to go to the library to comment. Why don't you see about this.
Fact. Daye showed NO evidence of being an alcoholic. Mangum was drunk too. Fact. No evidence of a beating in April has ever been seen. Fact. He ad kitted to the struggle in the apartment. They were BOTH drunk and BOTH pushing. Fact. There is no evidence presented that it was mangum's hair or that it came out that night as a result of a struggle or that Daye pulled it out. Fact. Mangum is the one with the convictions involving violence. Fact. Witnesses say Daye was not violent toward them. Fact. A witness said she heard a female voice say " I'm going to xxxx you up!' You are full of bull and lies
"The key word is "estimated." How about some facts! Not only that, but it's not about Hugo's personal wealth, but his family's. Maybe he has a large family. Not only that but the estimate might be off plus or minus $500,000?
Not too convincing for me. CEOs of American Oil companies and other business have personal fortunes much larger than the "estimated" assets of the Chavez family.
I'm not impressed or convinced. Sorry."
Yet you can offer ZERO sources to back up your claim, while I have provided a source.
You're entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.
Think of it as a term paper. Provide a source for your "facts" about Chavez's wealth, as I have provided mine. Wikipedia, of course, is not acceptable.
FWIW -- Chavez's fortune is quadruple that of Mitt Romney.
harr continues to present his opinions, falsely framed as facts. He is entitled to his opinions and observations. He's also entitled to show his bias, his racist frame of reference and his silliness with the conspiracy nonsense. What we all need to recognize is that he has a long a well documented history of making false statements, distorting the truth, twisting information and refusing to admit it when he is caught in a lie. Here is an example: harr continues to call Daye an alcoholic. there is no evidence reginald daye was an alcoholic. harr continues to portray daye as a violent woman-beating man. He continues to conveniently omit the FACT that the one charge of domestic violence from years ago...was DROPPED against Daye. He conveniently omits the statements of two women who had prior relationships with daye and who said he was not violent with them. Yes, it is reasonable to assume that both daye and mangum were drinking the night he was killed. Yes, it is also reasonable to assume they were arguing and that it was not a quiet argument. Yes, it is also reasonable to assume that both of them laying hands on the other. Harr wants to make a giant leap from these reasonable assumptions, and claim, as fact, that daye beat the stuffings out of mangum and that she had no choice but to stab him...in self defense. The evidence, at least so far, clearly does not support harr's conclusions as facts. again, his opinions are just that.....opinions....nothing more
During Chavez dictatorship, Venezuela had the second highest murder rate in the world and the fourth highest overall crime rate. It had the third highest inflation rate, was in the bottom 20%, worldwide for aver. family income, and, my personal favorite, was number one in rapes. yeah, really great socialist government! Guess how many public leaders of the opposition were murdered by Chavez and his henchmen during his time in office......26. Venezuelan oil went from $8/barrel to over $100/barrel and the people of the country sank into horrible poverty while Chavez and his elitist thugs racked up the wealth.
"Because of Hugo Chavez and his Venezuelan oil, many Americans are able to stay warm during the cold winter months. Need I say more?"
The vast majority of heating oil users are in the Northeast. Heating oil is part of the “distillate fuel oil” product family, most of which are imported from Canada.
You actually need to read more.
I love the phrase from Harr, "Hugo Chavez and his Venezuelan oil"....HIS oil? Hmmmmm, apparently, that's quite true...since it was obviously Chavez who reaped the benefits of oil sales....god knows it was not the people of Venezuela.

Sid doesn't really know where he's going with this. But, it's the second prong of Crystal's defense theory of the case. The first prong, a sure loser, is the autopsy. Sid's already told us that Crystal has her own evidence that there is nothing wrong with the autopsy.
However, her second prong is self-defense. Thanks Sid for letting us in on the Defense' thinking.
Here, Crystal and Sid have to deal with State v. Norman, 324 N.C. 253, 378 S.E.2d 8 (1989). The Supremes in all their wisdom held that a battered spouse, self-defense instruction is not appropriate unless the defendant has a fear of imminent death. The Court of Appeals in State v. Richardson, 2010 N.C. App. LEXIS 760 has helped us to understand that imminent death is not just a fear of death or serious bodily injury in the future, but, defined as "immediate danger, such as must be instantly met, such as cannot be guarded against by calling for the assistance of others or the protection of the law." Black's Law Dictionary 676 (5th ed. 1979). Our cases have sometimes used the phrase "about to suffer" interchangeably with "imminent" to describe the immediacy of threat that is required to justify killing in self-defense. State v. Holland, 193 N.C. 713, 718, 138 S.E. 8, 10 (1927).
Let's see how Sid deals with that problem, or not.

Hugo Chavez was one of the greatest, if not greatest, leaders of the Western Hemisphere. He put his people, especially the poor, before the interests of his country's upper crust.
He invested the oil for the benefit of his people, which is saying a lot more than the CEOs of American oil companies and their greed. They could care less if the poor freeze to death as long as they rake in the moolah.

Think, Walt. If Dr. Roberts feels that the autopsy report is accurate, why doesn't she put it in writing? She knows it's nothing more than a bunch of lies... and she doesn't want to incriminate him.
Secondly, after an intoxicated man busts down the locked bathroom door and drags a frightened female out by the hair and begins to strangle her with his hands around her neck, I think it is fair to say that the woman was justified to be in iminent fear of being killed.
Notify me if further elucidation is required.

Daye's blood alcohol was 296 mg/dL. That's a stuporous level in an adult male. Police didn't even bother to take Mangum's blood alcohol level.
Ignore Sid's ass-kissing of Hugo Chavez. here's a true picture of Chavez and Venezuela under Chavez.
Sid fails again, but thanks for playing.
"Think, Walt. If Dr. Roberts feels that the autopsy report is accurate, why doesn't she put it in writing? She knows it's nothing more than a bunch of lies... and she doesn't want to incriminate him."
You like to ignore the facts that don't support your position rather than deal with them. The problem is Crystal is in possession of the verbal report that says no problem with the autopsy. How do we know this? None other than Sid the genius violated attorney client privilege and released it. Written, Crystal would have to turn over the report in discovery if she intended to use it. Of course, she doesn't want to use that report as it bolsters the state's case, not hers. Still, Sid ignores that troublesome little fact.
"Secondly, after an intoxicated man busts down the locked bathroom door and drags a frightened female out by the hair and begins to strangle her with his hands around her neck, I think it is fair to say that the woman was justified to be in iminent fear of being killed."
Bzzzzzzt - wrong again. You fail to deal with the case law. In this instance, case law from our Supreme Court. That means? She gets no jury instruction on self defense. How are you going to get around that? Or do you even care? It looks like all you really want to do is prove the value of a good legal education by demonstrating how bad no legal education is.
"Notify me if further elucidation is required."
Again you have failed to elucidate. You're not much at persuasion, and even worse at elucidation. It is fun to watch though.

SIDNEY HARR:

You proclaim the autopsy report is a bunch of lies. However you have also proclaimed, albeit involuntarily, that you are not qualified to say that.
"Secondly, after an intoxicated man busts down the locked bathroom door and drags a frightened female out by the hair and begins to strangle her with his hands around her neck, I think it is fair to say that the woman was justified to be in iminent fear of being killed."
All uncorroborated allegations.
"Notify me if further elucidation is required."
One who has never provided elucidation in the first place is incapable of providing further elucidation.
SIDNEY HARR:
"Daye's blood alcohol was 296 mg/dL. That's a stuporous level in an adult male."
So why was Mr. Daye not stuporous. If he were able to tolerate such a level, his liver would have been damaged.
"Police didn't even bother to take Mangum's blood alcohol level."
Crystal was clinically drunk, judging from the police record you have published.

"He invested the oil for the benefit of his people, which is saying a lot more than the CEOs of American oil companies and their greed. They could care less if the poor freeze to death as long as they rake in the moolah.".........this quote from Harr so clearly points out his level of ignorance, racism and denial of truth. As noted previously venezuela has one of the HIGHEST impoverishment levels in our hemisphere, terrible crime, corruptions, exceptional murder rates, terrible access to healthcare and the highest rape frequency of any country in the world!
Chavez was nothing but a common thug who stole from his own people, ordered the murder of those who dared to opposed him, raped his country and subjected its women to a level of sexual abuse and violence unseen since Nazi Germany.
........"during the eulogy, Ahmadinejad said that Chavez "will come again along with Jesus Christ and Al-Imam al-Mahdi to redeem mankind,” putting the populist Venezuelan president and ex-paratrooper in the ranks of holy figures."........
Well, there you go.......ahmadinejad, the pond-scum-in-chief in Iran, compares Chavez to Jesus. Wow, sidney, who knew a murdering thief would be on the same level as your man from naz!
Hey, Kenny....seen ARGO? Great suggestion in the movie......

Why did the police not obtain a blood alcohol level from Crystal to document that she was drunk? They didn't. They did, however, get a blood alcohol level on Daye. That should tell you something.

Yeah. It tells me you are a totally incompetent physician looking for facts to distort.

"Walt, less than two minutes of computer time left. I'll try to remember to respond to your comment during my next session."
By all means do. Show us all again how you make a fool of yourself in the court room - and in whatever other room you might disgrace with your presence.
You reallly are an idiot, aren't you, Harr. Daye had a complete panel on his blood when he was brought to the ED at Duke. A portion of that panel, which any bonafide ED physician would know, is results for alcohol or other substances. Of course, they knew he had been drinking. What kind of fake physician are you, anyway? Is your whole history, credential, made up fabrication of your medical school nothing more than one more piece of XXXX? Mangum's own relative admitted that she thought Mangum was drunk, when she showed up at the door of the apartment , staggered in, and fell on the floor. Your lies don't hold up anymore, harr. None of them. You are a liar and so is Mangum.
ANY trauma patient, and especially a patient with a stab wound who had SAID he had been drinking, would have his blood alcohol level tested, sidney, when he came to an ED. Were you ever really a physician? Working in emergency medicine? seriously? I really doubt it because you appeared to think it exceptional that the hospital tested Daye's alcohol levels. This is just routine......so it makes me wonder if your whole story about your background is suspicious.
It is even more troubling to me, as a healthcare worker, that you would act ignorant of HIPPA. No legitimate physician would pretend to be unaware of HIPPA. That's laughable. It's like saying you are a doctor and you didn't know you were supposed to wear gloves when doing surgery. If you are a physician, then you did know about HIPPA and you published Daye's records without regard to his privacy rights under HIPPA. If you had still been licensed as a physician, you would have been in very serious trouble. I assume you are not licensed.....in any state.
Your numerous errors in interpretation of medical information, your flaunting of confidential information, your unwillingness to substantiate your credentials as a physician.....all lead me, and I assume many others, to doubt whether you have told the truth about your background. I don't particularly care one way or the other.......it only hurts you and Mangum. However, as a person who works in healthcare, I have to say I am ashamed of you for claiming to be a physician and for publishing Reginald Daye's confidential medical records. That's really over the line
Dr. Harr:
As I have stated before, Ms. Mangum could have photos of her injuries, the torn-out hair, the broken door, and so forth, but the jury will never see these if they're not admitted in evidence. If Ms. Mangum is representing herself, and stands up and offers these exhibits, and the prosecutor objects under Evidence Rules 901(a) and 1003, what is she going to say?
There is a reason lawyers have to go to law school for three years, and there is a reason the Constitution guarantees criminal defendants the right to be represented by a lawyer.
I have no personal opinion as to whether Ms. Mangum is innocent or guilty. I have a very strong opinion that if she goes to trial without a lawyer she will be convicted. If she doesn't trust a single lawyer in Durham, she should find a lawyer from out of town, or even one from out of state who can ask the court for permission to appear pro hac vice. But defending oneself against a murder charge without a lawyer is suicidal. Even Clarence Darrow, the greatest criminal defense lawyer of his day, hired another lawyer to represent him when he was charged with jury-tampering.
You are howling at the moon. Sidney Harris a zealot on a crusade. Crystal Mangum is but a useful tool. Harr's concern about the quality and loyalty of the NC Bar is a ruse. Remember, the Duke lacrosse players had no problem finding competent, local counsel more than willing to take on the entire Durham power structure, including but not limited to the Durham PD, Durham DA's office, Duke University, DUMC, NAACP, Black Panthers, the entire local media and many national media outlets.
This trial is going to be an absolute, unmitigated disaster for Crystal. What's worse is that I am not convinced that this isn't exactly what Sidney is aiming for, as a conviction and long prison sentence keeps his crusade alive.

The question is not why did Daye have a blood alcohol level done, the question is why didn't the police get a level from Mangum.

What trial? How many times do I have to tell you that this trumped up piece of bull-hockey is not going to trial. The prosecution will fold like an accordion. They have no other option as their case against Mangum is non-existent, and they lost their only bargaining chip when Mangum was bailed out of jail.
The end is near as the light is emerging from the far end of the tunnel.

A lawyer,
Although I have long held the opinion that it would be impossible for Mangum to find an attorney who would represent her interests above all others, it just might be that I have been proven wrong.
The soothsayer in me predicts that during the upcoming week a revelation may be forthcoming that Mangum has retained legal counsel... one that will be fighting for an acquittal of all charges rather than pressing her for a plea deal.
HEY, EVERYBODY!! LISTEN UP!
Two important announcements.
First, I hate to rain on the parade of naysayers, nonbelievers, ill-willers, detractors, and others of such ilk, but the end of the vendetta-driven prosecutorial campaign is anon. It is my understanding, from reliable sources, that the prosecution has offered a plea deal for manslaughter which carries a 42 month recommended sentence. This joke is a sign of shear desperation on the part of Durham prosecutors. They have no bargaining chip because they not only have no case, but they don't have Mangum in custody.
Secondly, the flog is almost completed (the video portion), and it should be hopefully posted some time this coming week. Sorry for the delay.
Carry on.
SIDNEY HARR:
"The question is not why did Daye have a blood alcohol level done, the question is why didn't the police get a level from Mangum."
The answer is obvious, except maybe to a thoroughly incompetent physician. There was no medical or legal indication to do so. Crystal was not being charged with any alcohol related offense and was not in need of medical treatment.
SIDNEY HARR:
"This blog is the light of truth... exposing the dark corners of propagandistic reporting by the mainstream media. It presents the truth that the media wants to remain hidden from the public."
Another lie for which you get credit.
Well done SIDNEY-minion-of-the-father-of-lies-HARR.
SIDNEY HARR:
"What trial? How many times do I have to tell you that this trumped up piece of bull-hockey is not going to trial. The prosecution will fold like an accordion. They have no other option as their case against Mangum is non-existent, and they lost their only bargaining chip when Mangum was bailed out of jail.
The end is near as the light is emerging from the far end of the tunnel."
You have been saying for well over a year that the end is near.
SIDNEY HARR:
"A lawyer,
Although I have long held the opinion that it would be impossible for Mangum to find an attorney who would represent her interests above all others, it just might be that I have been proven wrong.
The soothsayer in me predicts that during the upcoming week a revelation may be forthcoming that Mangum has retained legal counsel... one that will be fighting for an acquittal of all charges rather than pressing her for a plea deal."
What soothsayer?
SIDNEY HARR:
"HEY, EVERYBODY!! LISTEN UP!
Two important announcements."
HAH!!!
"First, I hate to rain on the parade of naysayers, nonbelievers, ill-willers, detractors, and others of such ilk, but the end of the vendetta-driven prosecutorial campaign is anon."
You are as rainy as death valley.
"It is my understanding, from reliable sources, that the prosecution has offered a plea deal for manslaughter which carries a 42 month recommended sentence. This joke is a sign of shear desperation on the part of Durham prosecutors. They have no bargaining chip because they not only have no case, but they don't have Mangum in custody."
Are those the same reliable sources who told you Reginald Daye wanted to spend the rent money on booze?
"Secondly, the flog is almost completed (the video portion), and it should be hopefully posted some time this coming week. Sorry for the delay."
Most people are sorry that the delay is not indefinite.
Well Sid, I thought you were going to reply to me about the binding precedent I cited. I guess not. Once again, you fail to deal with the law. Not persuasive Sid, not persuasive.

Sidney:
Have your sources ever been right about anything?
Dr. Harr,
I am concerned about kenhyderal's absence from your blog and I fear for his safety. Could he have been silenced by the Carpetbagger Jihad?
Walt,
You think like a lawyer. Sidney thinks like the jurors in Durham. His strategy is straightforward: jury nullification. The law is unimportant.
He has provided Crystal’s strategy: Get the jurors’ sympathy.
She is being persecuted for her role in the Duke lacrosse case, the victim of a “vendetta prosecution” undertaken at the behest of a widespread conspiracy directed by Rae Evans. This conspiracy includes Durham, Duke, North Carolina, the Bar, prosecutors, police, the fire department, the medical examiner, the local, national and international media, civil rights organizations, politicians, defense attorneys, her medical expert, most other doctors, the California franchise tax board, the Raleigh Housing Authority and too many others to name. Her decision to represent herself reinforces the conspiracy. She is fighting back against the entire world and has been denied Sidney’s assistance.
She is a single mother of three who loves her children, who have cruelly been taken from her.
The failure of the media to dissect the evidence confirms the conspiracy. The extensive and detailed coverage the media generally provides black-on-black crime was totally lacking in this case.
The injunction is a setback to his strategy. We have all been captivated by Sidney’s passionate flogs. He would have been equally persuasive to a jury. However, Crystal may be almost as effective. Most readers underestimate her: she received an “A” in a difficult class. We have seen her speak in press conferences for her arson case and her book launch and can extrapolate that to the courtroom.
Sidney’s claim that the prosecution’s case is “non-existent” is understandable hyperbole.
It is true that Daye is dead and that Crystal stabbed him. It is true that the so-called binding precedent you cite would result in Crystal being held responsible for that death. However, the blatant unfairness of that result is obvious to anyone with a fifth grade education.
She was defending herself against Daye’s violence and inflicted a minor stab wound. Daye died as a result of medical mistakes.
Laws that hold her responsible are unfair and must be ignored. She was denied justice earlier. A jury would not repeat that injustice.
Remember her audience. Nifong received almost 50% of the vote in November 2006, long after the strength of his case was apparent. Crystal needs only one vote.
No jury in Durham would convict Crystal. The prosecution knows that and will drop all charges before trial to avoid embarrassment.
Break is hilarious......brillant sarcasm......I particularly like the line about remembering who elected Nifong......lOL
Dear Break, Please post frequently. You are cracking us all up!!!

Hey, Break.
Thanks for your comments. Actually, I could not have better stated them than you did. You are right-on-target when you express my strategy.
There are signs that the prosecution is beginning to face reality... it has offered a plea deal for time served in exchange for a manslaughter plea. They are very desperate... especially now that Mangum is out on bail.
I greatly appreciate your comments and support. Thanks again.

I can only blame myself for his absence because of my reticence to respond to his complaints about the two-word echo comments.
That has since been rectified with the implementation of the kenhyderal policy which promptly removes such childish contributions.
I hope that having the kenhyderal policy in place will prompt him to rejoin the conversation. I am sorry I did not respond earlier at his repeated requests.

I guess that "near" can be a relative term. Let me try to be a little more absolute. Before July 8, 2013, I believe that all charges against Crystal Mangum will be either dropped or dismissed.

When they are not, I can't wait to ear your reaction.
I remind you, you assured us you would prevail against Duke. Then you assured us you would humiliate the NC State Bar.
Wouldn't it be funny if Break were actually Nifong? Or, perhaps, Sidney has had a personality break and it's his evil twin doing the writing. Or, maybe it's Victoria Peterson. Or, maybe it's Msssss. no-conscious Cline. I love it when Break posts....what's even funnier is when sidney tries to pretend that he thinks Break is supportive of him. now THAT's entertainment!!

You do know Break's comment was sarcasm? You still haven't posted how you think you'll get the jury instruction. Cases aren't won in court becuase of loud and meaningless rants. I thought the injunction hearing would have taught you that. They are won by using the laws that exist or explaining why those laws don't apply to your situation. Apparently you are not learning.
Walt-in-Durham
If Harr truly believe Break is not being sarcastic, then Harr is to be pitied for his breakdown in mental faculties.
With Mangum defending herself in court, the trial is going to be devestating for her. The prosecutor will NOT bully her. He or she will simply follow the law and legal procedure. There will be no need for bullying. Mangum will hang herself, and.....frankly.....it's her own damn fault.....and the fault of Harr, of course. If there were a plea deal on the table, she would be a fool not to take it. Manslaughter, as several of us have long thought, is probably the correct charge, anyway, since we all know that Cline, who was involved when Daye was killed, is notorious for OVER charging in order to get pleas. 48 months for manslaughter? With time served? Hell, Mangum will be back out on the street, looking for the next shack-up victim, before you can say "Waaaaaaneeeeema".

Walt, you're making quite a leap in trying to categorize Break's comments as sarcasm. Far from it. Break's statements are logical, insightful, and make sense.
Crystal's case will not go to court because the prosecution has no case and it will not be able to force her to accept a plea deal. The only alternative is for the prosecutor to drop the charges.

The soothsayer in me tells me that Crystal Mangum will receive legal representation before week's end... and that she will not represent herself in court. I believe that she could represent herself in court and prevail because the charges against her are very extremely weak. As long as Mangum doesn't accept a plea deal, the prosecution would be too embarrassed to even proceed with trial and either drop the charges, or (as in the James Arthur Johnson case) ask for a special prosecutor. The case against Mangum is going no where!!

Comical, sidney.....truly hilarious. sooooo, now you claim mangum is going to get her fourth lawyer? hooray for her.....just in time for the attorney to ask the judge to postpone the trial, so that her case can be prepared. another delay
Did I just read the story I think I just read???? Could it be any funnier??? Chris Shella gets himself busted and arrested in a prostutition solicitation in Wake Forest? How funny is THAT!!!!! Not making this stuff up, either. I wonder if Mangum could testify for him as an expert witness???? Represent him in court? Oh, don't you just LOVE Durham-in-wonderand, as the professor would say. How do you suppose Shella met Mangum, in the first place???? ......"things that make you go, hmmmmmmmm".......
I wonder if we will finally get to the heart of the durham police department's love affair with Mangum....most of the locals are aware of her, shall we say, biblical knowledge of some of the blue line guys. stay tuned.....

IF Shella got it caught in the ringer, as my moma used to say, it is bleepin' funny!!! Harr rants and rants about the rich WHITE boys and the evil WHITE establishment, led by that evil WHITE woman, Rae Evans. He carries on about the "debauchery at the LAX party, etc. Now, we have Shella, who had a connection to Mangum BEFORE her latest criminal oooopsie, finding himself in pants-down-face-red embarrassment. I looooove the irony
Falling off my chair, laughing.....just saw the post about Shella and, indeed, saw his mug shot. Soooooo, the BLACK lawyer who, according to Mangum, she NEVER intended leave the case, has been caught up in a bit of a sting. As I recall, Shella quit the case after Mangum gave Harr all the HIPPA and related defense info...which Harr promptly posted. Oh, yeah, and the motions which Harr filed were a factor as well. Mangum claimed that she didn't have any intent for Shella to quit. Let's see....Jones quit/left the Walker case. Then, we had the Vann, Jones, VannII, Mangum...defense team. Now mystery lawyer number FOUR, per Harr, may sign in soon. Who thinks it's gonna be that greatly experienced superduper lawyer from Louisburg? Or, perhaps Al Sharpton? Jesse Jackson's son's lawyer? Oooops, no, he's fairly busy. How about the lawyer for the creeps who murdered Eve Carson? Gosh, why not Nifong? Harr could write a letter to the judge and TELL him to let Nifong represent Mangum pro se. Nifong always knew "something happened that night", right? well, heck fire, bathrobe boy.....now's your chance....
Oh, no!! Shella, and black man, calling up for, uh, entertainment??? Just like those degenerate rich white boys????noooooo, say it isn't so? laughing so hard, milk is spewing. I am certain Shella was calling for an exotic dancer to come to his hotel room and do the hokie-pokie for him....and that's all. Wonder how Shella and Mangum originally became friends???? You simply cannot make up the fantasy that exceeds the hilarity that is reality in Durham.
soooooo, now harr is saying that mangum is going to get a lawyer? Why, sidney? I thought you said every lawyer in NC is totally corrupt, totally out to get Mangum, totally in Rae Evans' purse. What happened, pal? How come YOU didn't prevail in your quest to represent her, yourself, pro se??? gosh, I guess Rae Evans was in charge of the NC Bar, the court, etc. more conspiracy. Break is correct...the conspiracy extends throughout the world, apparently. ......and all for the purpose of destroying the wonderful Mangum, a single mother of three, college graduate, and upstanding member of the community.
Let's also support Break's comment about how smart Mangum is....she made an A in a difficult course at NCCU. Supporting her outstanding academic work was the very fine president of NCCU, none other than James Ammons. You will all recall that Ammons gave her a degree with "honors", with no apparent objective standards or rationale for his declaration. Ammons was in the news a few months ago. He left NCCU to move to Florida, where he ran Florida A&M for a bit. Unforunately, Ammons got a vote of no confidence from the Board after some really swell band members beat the crap out of a band-mate and, sigh, killed him. Ammons initially took the position that the university ought to handle the "incident". So, Mangum got herself an honors diploma from a guy who thought murder ought to be handled by the administration. By the way, Ammons resigned (was booted) from A&M. See, isn't it great how Mangum aligns herself with such fine upstanding folk!!

SIDNEY HARR:
"Harrism -
'One who finds delight and amusement in the misery and misfortunes of another human being has the morals of a cockroach in heat and the humanity and character of a mealworm.'"
Here we have SIDNEY HARR describing himself to the proverbial "T" even if he did not intend to do so.
Perhaps sidney ought to recall Dr. Ben Carson's recent comments about those who blame others rather than accepting personal responsibility for their own miserable choices. Those who hide behind the deceit of being perpetual victims of "oppressors" do so only to avoid taking responsibility for their own miserable choices.
Funny and ironic that sidney harr uses the word "morals" in the same context with Mangum.....who, as another poster has so rightly observed, has the morals of a house cat....
"Misery and misfortune?" Hmmm.....You mean the lies Mangum told, the nine criminal convictions, the killing of Daye, the continuous shacking up with men, the pole vaulting? that misery and misfortune?
Let's see......per harr, mangum has a plea deal to consider.....I wonder if she is doing her legal research to determine how best to respond. perhaps mangum is evaluating the strength of her defense case in light of the plea deal on the table. perhaps she is considering the proximate cause issues involved, the lack of physical evidence to support her claim of self defense, etc. perhaps she is crafting and filing motions??? hmmmm.......
I believe the poster is correct....Harr has previously stated that HE should represent her in court. In fact, that wild nonsense is in his language submitted to the court in the NC Bar matter. Perhaps HE will be mystery lawyer number four, after all. maybe harr has a law degree we didn't know about....??? and perhaps it's from the fine school of law, NCCU?
sidney, how do you know that mangum has been offered a plea deal? what contact have you had with mangum, out of jail, and how are you able to be discussing legal matters with her, considering that you are under an injunction not to do so? why are you unwilling to disclose your full professional medical credentials if you are claiming to be an expert, superior to Nichols and Roberts? What's the nature and reason for your reluctance to establish your background? One would think your opinions would have much greater credibility if you establish your expertise....so why not do so? It's a fair question to ask....
IF Mangum has been offered a plea deal for manslaughter, she should be jumping up and down with relief. Her self defense claim is, to say the least, weak.....and, with no attorney to professionally represent her in court, the trial is going to be a disaster. Perhaps her strategy is to be an idiot in court on purpose, to gain the jury's sympathy, and to pray she gets a pass from the same Durham voters who elected the fongster. Hoping for an OJ Jury, as they say.... While Mangum and Harr have illegally and stupidly published information THEY claim to support self defense, we all know bias, distortion, deceit and denial are the hallmarks of what get published here. I think Mangum deserves a fair trial, and I do hope the case goes to trial.....simply because I want to know the whole story. BUT, a manslaughter plea, with time served, is a damn good deal.....based on all we know at this point. Of course, Harr will continue to try to insert himself in the case whenever and wherever he can.....all to the detriment of Mangum
Yet another defense counsel in the show. Scott Holmes has filed and appearance and wants to get in on the bill fest. How long before Sid tries to run him off?

I have great admiration for Dr. Carson, but I don't necessarily agree with everything he says. The fact is that Crystal Mangum was victimized not only by Daye, but by the justice system in its vendetta prosecution. A victim of domestic violence, she served 689 days in jail... and we all know that it was payback for her role in the Duke Lacrosse case (in which she was also a victim).

Mangum recognizes plea deals in her case for what they are... acts of desperation by the prosecution. If she accepts the non-lawyerly advice of her friends, she will never accept one in this case.
Plea deals are for the guilty. Those who are innocent should fight for their acquittal, if at all possible.

I could easily defend Crystal and have her acquitted. So could Crystal. So could you! The reason: the case against her is basically non-existent. That has been the problem with the charges against Mangum from day one.

Crystal told me that she received a plea offer secondhand through Attorney Vann from the prosecution.
Regarding the injunction, it stated that I could not act lawyerly with regards to Mangum... it did not say that I could not engage in conversation with her.
Regarding my medical credentials, I believe a commenter has already revealed them on this blog site... where I went to medical school, and where I did my post graduate training. I'm not trying to conceal my medical record, I just have no desire to provide it for you. Research if you wish... be my guest.
Also, I do not recall ever saying that I was an expert superior to Drs. Nichols and Roberts. We all three know the truth about the autopsy report... it's just that Nichols and Roberts are set on lying about it.

Sorry to disappoint you, but their won't be a trial because the charges will be dismissed or dropped. Face it, the prosecution's case is non-existent! If you want to know the truth about the case, keep in contact with this blog site... because the truth is too painful for the mainstream media to publish and broadcast.

Really, Walt! It's not my practice to willy-nilly run off attorneys for Crystal Mangum... only the turncoat ones who have as their priority to protect the deputy medical examiner and Duke University Hospital. From what I understand, Mr. Holmes is an outstanding attorney who will passionately and vigorously defend Crystal. I have no reason to doubt his intentions... and I have no plans to try and run him off.

The fact is that Crystal Mangum was victimized not only by Daye, but by the justice system in its vendetta prosecution. A victim of domestic violence, she served 689 days in jail... and we all know that it was payback for her role in the Duke Lacrosse case (in which she was also a victim)."
Boy are you deluded.
SIDNEY HARR:
"Mangum recognizes plea deals in her case for what they are... acts of desperation by the prosecution. If she accepts the non-lawyerly advice of her friends, she will never accept one in this case.
Plea deals are for the guilty. Those who are innocent should fight for their acquittal, if at all possible."
Just like the innocent, falsely accused Lacrosse players fought for recognition of their innocence?
In spite of your mindless ramblings, the rational world recognizes that Crystal falsely accused them of rape.
SIDNEY HARR:
"I could easily defend Crystal and have her acquitted. So could Crystal. So could you! The reason: the case against her is basically non-existent. That has been the problem with the charges against Mangum from day one."
This from the deluded man who said he would prevail against Duke in a frivolous lawsuit and would humiliate the NC State Bar.
SIDNEY HARR:
"
Really, Walt! It's not my practice to willy-nilly run off attorneys for Crystal Mangum..."
Yes you are.
"only the turncoat ones who have as their priority to protect the deputy medical examiner and Duke University Hospital."
There are no such attorneys, because there is no need to protect Duke or Dr, Nichols from anything.
"From what I understand,"
You understand anything. HAH!!!
"Mr. Holmes is an outstanding attorney who will passionately and vigorously defend Crystal. I have no reason to doubt his intentions... and I have no plans to try and run him off."
The question is whether the IDS will appoint him as Crystal's attorney. The judge has admonished Crystal she can not demand any specific attorney.
SIDNEY HARR:
"I met Mr. Holmes yesterday. He has my contact information and can reach me at any time. I will be happy to help him in the preparation of his defense if he wishes."
I doubt that he would wish that. That would be wishing to go ice skating with Tanya Harding.
"Also, I'm sure that he is more than capable of filing a motion to dismiss... which he should, of course."
Which means, you will accuse him of being coopted by the non existent carpetbagger jihad when he does not do so.
SIDNEY HARR:
"Sorry to disappoint you, but their won't be a trial because the charges will be dismissed or dropped. Face it, the prosecution's case is non-existent!"
You have been saying that for more than a year.
"If you want to know the truth about the case, keep in contact with this blog site... because the truth is too painful for the mainstream media to publish and broadcast."
That would be like your master Satan saying, listen to me if you want the truth about Jesus.
SIDNEY HARR:
"LISTEN UP, EVERYBODY... AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE!!"
Since when have you ever delivered an important message.
"A new flog/blog will be uploaded tomorrow... Saturday, March 23rd. I have completed the video, which will be on YouTube, and the interactive flog should be finished within hours."
What a way to spoil the weekend.
"As you were."
We have never changed in our admiration, or lack thereof, for you.

The Lacrosse defendants may be guilty or innocent... but a trial was never held, and the evidence in the case sealed by the attorney general.
You may want to keep reliving the Duke Lacrosse case, but I am more concerned about events of the moment... namely the first degree murder charge against Mangum.
Sidney: the evidence in the case sealed by the attorney general.
SIDNEY B. HARR IS A LIAR.
The attorney general did not "seal" the evidence.
SIDNEY HARR:
"The Lacrosse defendants may be guilty or innocent... but a trial was never held, and the evidence in the case sealed by the attorney general."
As no crime had been shown to have been committed in the first place, there was no justification for taking the issue to trial. Since SIDNEY never reviewed the case, he has no justification for saying the evidence has been sealed.
"You may want to keep reliving the Duke Lacrosse case, but I am more concerned about events of the moment... namely the first degree murder charge against Mangum."
In other words you are trying to dodge your failure to convince the world that the Lacrosse players are guilty.
Why have you continued to refer to Crystal as the "victim/accuser" in the Duke Lacrosse case, if you are not interested in the case any more?
