I get clones like Robert David Johnson (alias KC) and Hershel Parker alias (Payback;shades of Rae Evans) mixed up. Both of them are motivated by Trumpian like revenge and insecurities over perceived slights. Johnson's vendetta against President Brodhead was based on his failure to gain tenure which he attributed, not to his own deficiencies but to left leaning academics like Brodhead. Parker's over a critical review of his Melville biography.

Kenny,
In other words, you can't even keep track of your stories.
Come to think of it, you couldn't even remember things you wrote two years ago, and have no qualms about insulting people for quoting you.

That wasn't much of an apology.

If Johnson was out for revenge and viewed Brodhead as a symbol of the academics which made his tenure battle more difficult, why was his initial post largely favorable to Brodhead? Johnson was supportive of Brodhead's initial actions and statements. He grew critical as Brodhead's subsequent actions and statements failed to live up to the initial promise.

There aren't too many people who have come out of the current Duke controversy looking good, but there are two that have performed about as well as possible, it seems to me, under current circumstances. The first is the editor (and by extension, the reporters) of the Duke student newspaper, the Chronicle, whose coverage has been first-rate. As the Crimson demonstrated last spring during the Summers controversy, student newspapers with talented reporters can actually outperform the regular media on campus stories.

The second is Duke's president, Richard Brodhead. He--quite appropriately, it seems to me--suspended and then cancelled the lacrosse season; based on the most benign interpretations of their actions, many of the lacrosse players were guilty of conduct unbecoming university students and gravely embarrassing the school. He's reached out to students and administrators at NCCU.


A couple of nits regarding your post: (1) "KC" is more commonly referred to as a "nickname" rather than an "alias" and (2) Johnson was granted tenure when he appealed the initial rejection due to a "lack of collegiality" cited by the committee; your characterization of his "failure to gain tenure" thus is any best misleading.

You indicated that you believe his coverage of the Duke lacrosse case was" false and misleading." Please share specific statements of John son's (not those of his "surrogates:) that you find "false and misleading." Please provide specific evidence that supports your allegations that those specific statements re "false and misleading."

I note that Johnson's failure to discuss your ridiculous hypothesis that Magnum was raped at the party by an unknown number of mystery rapists does not constitute "false and misleading" commentary.

KC Johnson gained tenure at CUNY. A number of distinguished scholars from the CUNY institutions recommended him for tenure, and it was unanimously approved by the CUNY Board of Trustees.

Seems you're trying to generate a few alternative facts, Kenny...

Check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KC_Johnson:

Brodhead had nothing to do with KC Johnson's tenure battle at Brooklyn College.Brodhead was at Yale at the time(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_H._Brodhead).


"Parker's over a critical review of his Melville biography."

Other than a review of KC Johnson's outstanding Until Proven Innocent, Hershel Parker had really no involvemrnt inthe Duke Rape Hoax and the reaction to it.

Where do you come up with your delusions(a previous delusion that Nifong did not charge the Lacrosse Players with rape). Regardless of from where ever you derive your delusions, you show only 1) you are incredibly stupid and 2) you do not comprehend the truth

Kenhyderal:

Speaking of your delusions, let's again bring up your claim unknown party attendees who were not Lacrosse team players raped Crystal.

You claimed an entity named kilgo told you a Lacrosse player told t told him he had witnessed non lacrosse players raping Crystal. You said kilgo made that claim in a post he made to J4N. Then you said, kilgo disappeared from J4N and deleted all his posts.

So you can not document kilgo or anyone else told you about unidentified party attendees.

Most likely this is another delusion you dreamed up from zero to support your delusion that Crystal had been raped.

Well, Kenny, the only lies told in the Duke Rape Hoax were, Crystal lied when she said she had been raped, and Nifong lied when he told the judge he had turned over all evidence to the defense.

And your statement, that Nifong did not have the Lacrosse players charged with rape, I do not believe you lied, but you sure were unaware of the actual truth.

So far as it being a good thing that you introduced Crystal to Sidney, all Sidney did for her was convince her she could beat the rap after she murdered Reginald Daye. You see where that got her, where she remains in spite of Sidney's boasting.

Kenny again shows he can not comprehend the truth.

Faculty members of Duke demonized the innocent men falsely accused of raping Crystal. Professor Johnson called them out and exposed their biases. And Kenny criticizes Professor Johnson for doing so.

So people criticize Professor Johnson. People criticized Martin Luther King, Mother Theresa, President Obama, and even Jesus CHrist Himself.

I guess you will next assert that the demonstrations in which protertors presumed the Lacrosse players were guilty and calling for their castration, the guilt presuming demonstration by the New Black Panthers never took place.

The bottom line is, no crime never happened, Crystal lied about being raped, the gang of 88 statement was inflammatory and guilt presuming, the corrupt DA tried to convict them on order to get himself elected, and you condemn Professot Johnson for speaking out about iy.

Anonymous said...

Kenhyderal:

Saying that the Gang of 88 statement was merely an attempt to bring attention to problems of racism and sexism on Duke is like saying Trump's recent order on Immigration was merely an attempt to secure the nation's borders. The only racism and sexism manifested as a result of the Lacrosse party was the racism and sexism manifested by those who tried to use Crystal's false rape allegations to railroad the innocent Lacrosse payers into prison.

Anonymous said...

Kenhyderal:

Those references you cite DO claim the Gang of 88 statement had little to nothing to do with the false allegations leveled against the innocent, wrongfully accused Lacrosse players. It is like Sidney Harr trying to say his lawsuits against Duke had no connection to the Duke Rape Hoax. Or, for that matter, they are like the statements you have put on this Blog, that Nifong gid not have the Innocent Lacrosse players charged with rape.

Anonymous said...

Kenhyderal:

This goes to yor credibility, or lack thereof. I refer again to the fact that the male DNA found Crystal did not match the DNA of those considered potential suspects, Again, check NC law on non testimonial orders. The requestor of the NTO must have probable cause to believe the subjects of the NTO could be suspects.

The male DNA found on Crystal did not match the DNA of those designated by the NTO as possible suspects.

NC law required that the those subjected to the NTO be given a report of the results as soon as the report was available. Nifong had that report before he sought indictments against anyone. At the time he sought indictments, he was obligated to turn over the report to those against whom he sought indictments. Instead, months after he got the indictments, he turned over more than a thousand pages of raw data, and that was not done voluntarily. It was done in response to a court order.

You claim Nifong did not conceal the evidence.

Also, you have posted repeatedly that the Police investigation was botched, one reason being the identities of the men who had left their DNA on Crystal were never determined. It was pointed out to you that Nifong had custody of that DNA evidence and had made no attempt to identify the sources. Your response was, Nifong believed he could convict those indicted of sexual assault and kidnapping without DNA.

Your situation is summed up by a line from a Simon and Garfunkle tune, I think it was titled The Boxer: "A man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest".

That also sums up the attitude of those who criticized Professor Johnson. So that you cite references to those critics is meaningless.

Kennyhyderal,

When asked to provide specific statements by KC Johnson regarding the Duke lacrosse case that were "false and misleading" and evidence to support your view that such statements were false and misleading, you linked to two critics who objected to Johnson's characterization of the advertisement endorsed by a number of Duke faculty. I assume that your failure to provide other specific examples as "false and misleading" means that you do not object to specific statements by Johnson related to Nifong's prosecution itself, Mangum's false accusation, the failed investigation undertaken by Gottlieb and Himan, and his characterization of the SANE exam and DNASI reports.

You are open with your opinions. You refuse to provide credible evidence to support them.

Kenhyderal(part2):

"Fact: Crystal had her money stolen from her purse while she was impaired. Your explanation is she failed to complete her performance and so the Players were entitled to steal the money. In legality there only recourse was a civil against the booking agency."

Irrelevant as to whether or not she had been raped..

"And if she had been poisoned with a date-rape drug she was not responsible for her inability to perform."

Presumes a fact not at all in evidence, that she was administered a date rape drug. You refer to Chloral Hydrate as a drug which acts quickly and is not detectable as evidence she was drugged. But you provide no facts to establish that the party attendees had any intention of drugging her, or that they had access to Chloral Hydrate, which is not a readily available drug. More speculation on your part. More speculation.

"You consider your opinions as facts and mine as speculation."

As I have established your so called facts ARE speculation. And, again, to quote Simon and Garfunkle, you, like corrupt DA Nifong, hear what you want to hear and disregard the rest.

"I get my information from a principal"

Who? Kilgo? You can not document that kilgo was a principal in the Duke Lacrosse incident. You can not document you actually got any information from kilgo in the first place, which suggests strongly this "information" is something you fabricated out of your desire to hear only what you want to hear. Nothing you have presented is credible.

"You get yours from Duke Lacrosse apologists"

It has been established beyond any reasonable doubt(your doubt does not even come close to being reasonable), that no rape ever took place. You have presented zero evidence, Ergo, there are no Duke "rape" apologists.

"and AG Cooper's conclusions presented without supporting documents about evidence they promise exonerated the Players"

Another iteration of what has been said on J$N that the Lacrosse players could prove they were innocent. Other iterations were: a statement Sidney once posted, that the DNA found on Crystal was not exculpatory because it did not prove that the Lacrosse players did not rape Crystal; and, no one ever proved that Crystal ever lied about being raped.

Kenhyderal, you seem to be unaware of the obligation of the prosecution to prove, and that is also part of the Canadian Justice System. No defendant is required to provide exonerating evidence. The Prosecution is obligated to provide incriminating evidence which shows beyond a reasonable doubt that the crime happened and that the accused were perpetrators. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE THAT THE ALLEGED CRIME EVER HAPPENED!!! All your speculation, all your hearing only what you want to hear, much of it from an unreliable, non credible source, adds up to zero evidence that the crime ever happened.

Congratulations on your latest spectacular crash and burn..

"Anonymous said: "You refuse to provide credible evidence to support them"........Any evidence I provide is automatically judged non-credible."

Wrong on two counts. What you provide is speculation, not evidence, and speculation in not credible evidence.

"For example three independent witnesses testify that Crystal arrived unimpaired."

At least three other witnesses, who had no ulterior motives, testified Crystal was impaired when she arrived and was still impaired when she left. She was taken to the Durham Access Center hours after she left, indicating she was still impaired hours after she left.

"You offer two possible explanations, neither of which I find convincing."

So? Presumes two facts not in evidence, that what you can think and that what you try to pass off as thinking is significant.

"1. The non-independent party guests say she arrived impaired."

As nothing happened at the party(I remind you, you have provided zero evidence anything criminal did happen-we'll get to that later), the party guests had zero ulterior motivation for saying Crystal was impaired.

"2 The beer and Flexeril she took hours before suddenly kicked-in. This had been done before without such consequences."

This is the opinion of no clinical experience, no clinical training Kenhyderal. Experts with clinical training and expertise have said mixing alcohol and flexeril(and Crystal admitted to drinking 44 0unces of beer before taking flexeril) causes impairment. I repeat, witnesses say Crystal was impaired when she arrived and was still impaired when she left. That she was taken to the Durham Access center after she left indicated she was still impaired after she left, which is consistent with a mix of 44 ounces of beer and Flexeril. Who documented Crystal never had any ill effects from mixing alcohol and flexeri? Crystal? Crystal was the only one in the Lacrosse incident who had an ulterior motive for anything, including claiming she was raped. See Fantastic Lies. Admittance to the Durham Access Center would have gotten Social Services involved, who would have learned that Crystal had left her children alone while she was drunk, and performing a strip tease in a skimpy costume. That is not indicative of Crystal being a fit mother.

"Fact: Dr. Manly saw a fluid on Crystal that looked like semen."

Wrong. Dr. Manly saw a whitish fluid which she thought was semen without doing a wet mount to document it was semen. Kenhyderal wants it presumed this was incriminating evidence when it was never established in the first place that it was evidence.

"Your explanations 1.It's possible that she had a suppurating vaginal infection."

No. It was thought she had some kind of infection. For no clinical experience, no clinical training Kenny's benefit, that is a reasonable differential diagnosis, especially in light of, no effort was made to document the fluid was semen.

"2. No alkaline phosphatase was detected therefore there was no semen. This is not unusual in tests done long after the fact."

The rape kit materials were taken in a timely fashion, not a long time after the alleged rape(it was never established as fact that Crystal was raped). If Crystal had been raped at the party.the rape kir materials would have tested positive for alkaline phosphatase. Kenhyderal's speculation why evidence was not there does not establish any evidence of rape.

"Fact: DNA extracted from sperm and unexplained by Crystal's consensual sexual history was found. Your speculation without proof. Crystal lied about her consensual sexual history."

Kenhyderal has admitted it can not be established that the DNA had been deposited at the party. His assertion, that there was never a comprehensive list of party attendees is more speculation. It does not establish any evidence that anyone at the party could have raped Crystal.

Yes, with the botched investigation, it could not be proved beyond a (reasonable) doubt that Party attendees raped Crystal and therefore no one could be convicted. That, however, does not mean that rape and other crime never took place; only that it could not be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. Some will believe OJ did not kill Ron and Nicole or Casey Anthony did not kill Caylee. Others are convinced they did and are entitled to that opinion

So provide proof.

What you call proof is not proof bur speculation.

eg. If the whitishfluid found in Crystal's genital tract was in fact Semen, the rpe kit materials would test positive for alkaline phosohatase. They did not.

And your speculation why they did not does not provide any proof that alkaline phosphatase was there.

You have gone onrecord that Nifong was seeking justice for Crystal. Nifong was the individual who took charge of the investigation. If he was seeking justice for Crystal rhenwhy did he not conduct a proper investigation?

Anonymous said...

Again from Kenny:

"Anonymous said in response to my statement that I get my information from a principal: " Who Kilgo?" ................................No from Crystal herself."

You mean Crystal who told multiple conflicting stoeies about the alleged eape? Crystal, who was never interviewed by anyone in Nifong's Durham DA Office until almost 9 months after the alleged crime? Then Crystal, who originally alleged she had been prnretrated by multiple males, said she could not recall being penetrated.

Anonymous said...

Yet again from Kenny:

"Anonymous said in response to my statement that I get my information from a principal: " Who Kilgo?" ................................No from Crystal herself."

You mean Crystal who had been shown a number of phoro arrays, lineup procedures, in which she could not identify any Lacrosse player as an assailant. Then on the final lineup, which was improperly conducted, she identified with 100% certainty two team members as her assailants, ream members who could ptove with 100% certainty they had not been present in the party house at the time the alleged crime had taken place.She picked out as her third assailant David Evans, saying David Evans had a mustache when he raped her. There is no evidence David Evans ever had a mustache. Crystal also said she was sure with 100% certainty that Brad Ross had been present at the party. Brad Eoss was not presnt at the party. He could document he was with his girlfriend. A principal to the Duke Rape Hoax she was, but reliable and credible(except to a man who hears only what he wants to hear and disregrds the rest), absolutely no way.

Kenhyderal:

"Some will believe OJ did not kill Ron and Nicole or Casey Anthony did not kill Caylee. Others are convinced they did and are entitled to that opinion".

And what this transltes to is, you believe there was evidence of a rape but not enough to convict.

And again you got it wrong.

There was a total lack of evidence that a crime happened.

Anonymous said...

Kenhyderal:

With regard to OJ, the Brown family and the Goldman family successfully sued him in civil court. The standard of proof in civil court is a preponderance of the evidence.

Why did Crystal not sue in Civil Court?

Trial lawyers handle civil suits on a contingency fee basis. The Lacrosse defendants all came from well off families. If Crystal could have made a case against them, there was a chance for recovery of a significant sum of money.

Crystal would hve been able to afford a trial lawyer if she had had a case.

When he had a blog up, Vincent Clark once answered a question about a civil suit by saying the case was not about money. However, Crystal had already announced that part of the proceeds from her book would have gone to women's charities. The book was no where a best seller.

Clark's excuse is hollow. Crystal did not sue in civil course because she had no case, she had zero evidence she had been raped.

Kennyhyderal stated: No from Crystal herself.

Kenhyderal(Part 2):

"You speculate #1 The independent witnesses were either wrong or lying."

Wrong. I point out the fact that they were not the only witnesses, and other witnesses did give different testimony which disputes the credibility of your witnesses. Ignoring what you want to hear does not establish your speculation as fact.

"# 2 Her sudden impairment was caused by the 2 large beers and her medication"

Wrong again. There was testimony that her impairment was not sudden. Your sudden impairment claim is but another example of you assuming as fact something not at all in evidence.

"#3 What Dr. Manly saw was an exudate from a vaginal infection."

Wrong yet again. If a fluid found to be semen is found in a woman's genital tract in the ER, the next step is to do a wet mount, to rule in or rule out the presence of motile sperm. The presence of motile sperm establishes the fluid is semen, not the surmising of the ER physician. Dr. Manly did not do a wet mount. Because she did not do a wet mount, it was a matter of speculation what the fluid was. You want it presumed, without documentation, that it was semen.

"#4 The Players were entitled to take back the money without her consent because her performances was abbreviated."

Wrong yet again. What I said is that the money is irrelevant as to whether or not Crystal was raped. Have you forgotten that the Lacrosse players were charged with nothing with regard to the money. They were charged with first degree rape.

Or maybe you did forget. At one point you were claiming as fact that the Lacrosse defendants were not charged with rape.

Congratulations again on your latest crash and burn.

Excerpts from Kim Pittman/Roberts statement:
http://johnsville.blogspot.com/2006/06/duke-lacrosse-scandal-kim.html


I, Kim Pittman, was called by Melissa to do a Bachelor Party at 610 Buchanan St. at 11 p.m. at night...

At about 11:30 Precious arrived and came to the back where we met for the first time... we went straight the bathroom where my outfit was to change clothes. Precious came with her dancing gear on and did not need to change.

We conversed about our plan for the dance. There was a knock on the door and we were handed two drinks of equal amounts. We did sip the drinks, but Precious cup fell into the sink. We finished getting dressed and proceeded to the living room, led by Dan, to do our show. There were about 20-25 young guys there, who were all sitting down. Precious and I began our show which, in my opinion, seemed to be going well. Precious began showing signs of intoxication at this point...

That [broomstick] statement made me uncomfortable and I felt like I wanted to leave. I raised my voice to the boys and said the show was over. The commotion riled Precious up and caused her to get irate. I went to the bathroom with Precious and I told her I wanted to leave. Precious felt we could get more money and that we shouldn't leave yet. She was uncontrollable at this point and was yelling at the boys who were knocking on the door to leave us alone. I finally decided to leave the house. I left the bathroom, grabbed my bag and exited the house with my dancing gear on.

I went to my car, wanting to leave, but not wanting to leave the girl in the house alone. I changed my clothes in the car where some of the boys were coming to my window asking me to talk to them. I was told by one of the guys that Precious was passed out in the back and could I please do something with her.

By this point, it seemed that the fellas may have been ready for the evening to be over. I told them that if they could get her to my car, I would get her out of their hair. Within minutes, she was being helped out of the back yard and into my car. At this point, she did not have the bag that I saw her come with and I asked her if she had the most important thing, her money. She told me yes but she did not seem coherent.

She then told me that we should go back to the house because there was more money to be made there...

At this point, she was basically out of it... .


Kennyhyderal, I have a few questions for you:

I agree that the statement appears to support your conclusion that Magnum arrived at the party unimpaired, and her subsequent impairment occurred suddenly. The players gave drinks to both dancers. Both dancers "sipped" their drinks before Magnum spilled hers. Although both dancers "sipped" their drinks, only Magnum became impaired. You then speculate that Mangum's subsequent impairment was due to drugs placed in the drink she sipped, rather than the 44oz of high alcohol beer she admitted to drinking shortly before arriving at the party.

1. You appear to believe the other dancer, as an "independent" witness, is reliable. Is that correct?

2. If both dancers "sipped" their drinks, why did only Magnum become impaired?

3. Was only Mangum's drink spiked and Roberts' drink was not?

4. If only one drink was spiked, why did the players choose to spike only one drink and not the other?

5. If the players chose to spike the drink(s) in preparation for a planned sexual assail, as you appear to speculate, why would they not have spiked both drinks (the failure to spike both drinks would have left a coherent witness)?

That is a fact. It ie also a fact that other witnesses say she was impaired when she arrived, there is photographic evidence she was impaired when she left the party, and it is a fact that some time after she left the party she was taken to the Durham Access Center for involuntary committment for detoxification, which says she was still impaired for a period of time following the party. So,Kenny, hearing what you want to hear and disregarding the rest soes not establish it as fact that Crystal was unimpaired when she arrived, that she became intoxicated after she was given something after the party.

That is consistent with drinking 44 ounces of beer and then raking flexeril, which Crystal admitted doing. It is not at all consistent with Crystal suffering no effects from her alcohol/flexeril combo.

"# 3 Dr. Manly observed a whitish fluid she surmised to be semen".

When an ER has a woman suspected of being a rape victim, if that womanhas fkuid inher genital tract suspected to be semen, the next step is a wet mount, putting a swab of the fluid on a slide, adding a drop of saline, covering the sample with a cover slit, then looking at the sample under a microscope. If motile sperm are present, that establishes the fluid is semen, NOT the surmising of the ER Physician. Dr. Manly did not do a wet mount When informed of the results of the rape kit testing, Dr. Manly surmised the fluid was not semen but a manifestation of a vaginal yeast infection. Kenny thinks it should be presumed that the fluid found on Crystal was semen, and was incriminating evidence. It was never determined what the fluid was evidence of.

Kenhyderal has claimed not everyone who arrended the party was identified.

Kenhyderal can not document that kilgo ever gavre him the information, suggesting strongly Kenhyderal fabricated that information, from his desire to believe what he wanted to believe. not from what he actually knew.

Too that last comment I add for Kenny's edification, it IS relevant that the DNA found on Crystal did not match up with the DNA of any identified party attendee.

And, if there were unidentified party attendees, why did Nifong, who knew of the DNA evidence and had custody of it make no attempt to identify the sources. Hint: it was not because he thought he could convict Lacrosse players of sexual assault without DNA evidence. Nifong proclaimed loud and long before he sought indictments that members of the Lacrosse team had raped Crystal. That is documented in Until Proven Innocent, It's Not About the Truth, Rush to Injustice, and in the ESPN Documentary Fantastic Lies, sources you do not know because of your propensity to hear only what you wnt to hear.

Some date-rape drugs like chloral hydrate work so instantaneously that dropping the drink after taking a sip could be an indication that it had begun to incapacitate her. Since the common date rate drug GHB is easily tested for and in Crystal's case was not found (nor was any other illegal drugs) sexual predators were aware that choral hydrate was the ideal date rape drug. Since that time, tests have been developed to identify one of it's metabolites but at the time this was unavailable. Who knows why a sexual predator would only spiked one drink. I do not believe that this was an attack carefully planned by a number of party attendees. Unfortunately those who would never be involved in such a crime out of loyalty to team members who had some involvement and were friends of the criminals chose to remain silent.

This amounts to presuming a fact not in evidence, that Crystal was raped, and all yor speculation about unidentified party attendees raping Crystal is speculation, and speculation establishes nothing as fact. Chloral Hydrate acts quickly and could not be identified.
You also presume, without evidence, that a date rape drug was used.You have zero evidence that a Date Rape drug was used. So you presume that Chloral Hydrate, which was undetectable at the time, was used. That is more speculation.

Finally,I repeat, you have not established as fact that Crystal was sober when she arrived at the party. You have merely chosen to disregard the evidence that Crystal WAS impaired when she arrived and remained impaired for a period of time after she left the party.

Administering a noxious substance, never mind the motive, is itself a crime.

Roberts did not know Crystal and met her for the first time on her arrival. It was not until the performance was underway that she observed Crystal to become impaired. Since Roberts changed her testimony from saying Crystal's accusation was a crock to "I can never say that a rape did or did not occur; that's for the courts to decide. I didn't see it happen, you know. But what I can say is that there was opportunity and that it could have happened.

Kennyhyderal,

As you know, Roberts' statement differs significantly from Mangum's statement. They cannot both be correct in some significant areas.

In her statement, Magnum alleged: three guys grabbed Nikki, and "Bret, "Adam", and Matt grabbed me they seperated us at the Master bedroom door, while we tried to hold on to each other. Brett, Adam and Matt took me into the bathroom...

Roberts includes no such violent separation scene in her written statement, and when asked about it in a television interview (neither Nifong nor the Durham police asked about it), she indicated that no such violent separation occurred.

Kennyhyderal, I have a few more questions for you:

1. How do you explain the significant inconsistencies between Mangum's and Roberts' statements, focusing on this alleged violent separation?

2. Did the violent separation occur?

3. If so, why did Roberts not mention it and why did she indicate that it did not occur when interviewed on television?

4. If it did not occur, why did Magnum make this false allegation?

5. Why did Nifong and the Durham Police make no attempt to reconcile this significant difference?

6. When Magnum had difficulty identifying her alleged attackers in the first two identification procedures, why did the Durham Police not ask Roberts to identify the persons who grabbed Magnum while they were being separated and to identify the persons who grabbed her?

Keep in mind Crystal was, by then, in a state of impairment.

She was separated from Kim against he will, something Kim seems to be unaware of but she does acknowledge they were separated. That's something Crystal, being dragged aside, would not have wanted with Kim being her only potential ally there and would have tried to reach out to.

I have come to the conclusion that, although you publicly profess support for him, that you privately believe that Mike Nifong was one of the most incompetent prosecutors ever. He doesn't try to identify DNA and he doesn't ask "independent" witnesses to attempt to make identifications. I agree with your private thoughts--what an incompetent moron!

Roberts changed her testimony after Nifong had her brought in because of a probation violation.

Why do you ignore the fact that Dr. Julie Manly changed her opinion, if you will, of what she saw in Crystal's genital tract, tat it was not semen but a manifestation of a vaginal infection. Unlike Kim Roberts and Moex Elmostafa, it was not a case of anyone trying to fotce her to change her testimony. She changed her opinion after learning that the rape kit materials contained no fluid, no DNA from any males suspected of raping her. This was before Nifong got and concealed the evidence of the DNA which was found on her.

Another iteration of Kenny hearing what he wants to hear and disregarding the rest.

You keep in mind that Crystal was in an impaired state, before, during, and after the Party.


"Her recollections at that point of a violent, physical and terrifying experience while fighting to remain conscious are composed of flashbacks of this traumatic occurrence."

As the case played out, it became obvious that Crystal had not been subjected to any violent experience.

"She was separated from Kim against he will, something Kim seems to be unaware of but she does acknowledge they were separated."

Kim Roberts/Pittman initially testified that she and Crystal were not separated. Kim Roberts/Pittman initially said Crystal's story was "a crock". Kim Roberts/Pittman said at one point that Crystal told her to put mmarks on her. Kim Roberts/Pittman switched her testimony after being pressured by Nifong's DA office.

"That's something Crystal, being dragged aside, would not have wanted with Kim being her only potential ally there and would have tried to reach out to."

Again, there is no evidence that Crystal was ever dragged aside.

Again, your attitude is, hear only what you want to hear and disregard the rest. In a criminal case, one can not just ignore exculpatory evidence. A reasoon why Nifong got disbarred was he tried to suppress evidence he did not like, evidence which indicated he had no case.

Regardless of the characteristics of Chloral Hydrate, your claim that Chloral Hydrate was used is a combination of speculation and disregarding what you do not want to hear.

Let's look at Flexeril. Crystal took a large amount of alcohol and then took Flexeril. It is a fact that such a combination causes impairment. While you say Crystal had done this before and had not suffered any consequences, you do not give the source of your information. Did Crystal tell you this some time after the Lacrosse incident, after she was exposed as a false accuser? She had been convicted, years earlier, of crimes arising from stealing a cab and driving it on a suspended license and while intoxicated. The details come from police records compiled at the time, years before the Lacrosse incident. After Crystal had been exposed as a false accuser, she had published an account, in Last Dance With Grace, totally at odds with the Police records. You call that account the truth, and the other account as something concocted by the Lacrosse defense attorneys. That you can recognize truth is questionable, that you do disregard what you do not want to hear.

While you say there is testimony Crystal was not impaired when she arrived, there is also testimony she was impaired, and that testimony can not be dismissed because you don't like it.

There is also photographic evidence Crystal was impaired when she left the party. She was taken to the Durham Access Center after she left the party, to be involuntarily committed for detox, indicating she remained impaired after she left the party.

Taking EVERYTHING into consideration, not just the parts you want taken into consideration, Crystal was not drugged at the party.

Kenhyderal - I should have been more precise and stated that chloral hydrate's metabolites -- specifically trichloroethanol and trichloracetic acid -- take 3-5 days to fully metabolize.

An increased level of trichloracetic acid in the absence of trichlorethanol indicates past exposure to chloral hydrate.

Of course, exposure to trichlorethylene (which metabolizes into trichlorethanol) could give a false positive result, but I don't think exposure to trichlorethylene is something Crystal Mangum would have to worry about (it's used in the manufacture of a range of fluorocarbon refrigerants, to clean kerosene-fueled rocket engines, and as a metal parts degreaser).

kenhyderal said...

Lets go over this again; DA Nifong had no intent to conceal the DNA evidence and it was ultimately turned over to the defence long before any trial. DA Nifong believed he has sufficient evidence anyway, without a match, to proceed with kidnapping and sexual assault charges against the three. The case was ultimately taken over by AG Cooper who, it appears, himself made no effort to identify the DNA found but we will never know. The details of any investigations that Coman and Winstead conducted are sealed. Cooper was under great pressure by powerful interests to drop the charges. He, unlike Nifong, seems to have considered Crystal a person of little consequence.

"Lets go over this again; DA Nifong had no intent to conceal the DNA evidence and it was ultimately turned over to the defence long before any trial."

Yes.LET'S go over this again. Nifong was obligated to turn over a report of the results to those individuals subjected to the NTO, and that included the three men he had indicted, as soon as he had the report, and he had the report before he sought any indictments, meaning he was obligated by law to turn over the report, that the DNA found on Crystal did not match the DNA of the men he had indicted before he ever sought the indictments. Brian Meehan testified under oath that he and nifong agreed tio withhold the results from all the Lacrosse players. Nifong turned over thousands of pages of raw data to the defendants MONTHS AFTER he had the repor, and it was in response to a court order to turn over the data. That does not say Nifong had no intention of concealing thr evidence.

"DA Nifong believed he has sufficient evidence anyway, without a match, to proceed with kidnapping and sexual assault charges against the three."

Before Nifong sought indictments he went public with statements that a rape had happened, and that members of the Lacrosse team had perpetrated the rape. He sought indictments against the three defendants for FIRST DEREE RAPE, as well as for sexual assault and kidnapping. You are trying to pass off a lie as truth, and not a very good lie. So why should anyone believe you care about the truth.

Anonymous said...

Kenhyderal(again)

"The case was ultimately taken over by AG Cooper who, it appears, himself made no effort to identify the DNA found but we will never know."

When Nifong had Ethics charges filed against him he asked AG Cooper to take over the prosecution of the three men who had been indicted. AG Cooper, unlike you and Nifong and Sidney and William Cohan, conducted a thorough, objective investigation. Also unlike you, AG Cooper did not presume, without evidence, that a crime had taken place. His investigation found absolutely no evidence that Crystal had been raped, ergo there was no possibility of the DNA coming from rapists.

"The details of any investigations that Coman and Winstead conducted are sealed. Cooper was under great pressure by powerful interests to drop the charges."

No they are not.They are a part of the public record. That you hear only what you want to hear and disregard the rest does not add up to the case records being sealed.

"He, unlike Nifong, seems to have considered Crystal a person of little consequence."

No, AG Cooper investigated and found no evidence that Crystal had been raped, no evidence, in other words, that Crystal ever told the truth(that was for Sidney's benefit, Sidney who preaches no one ever proved Crystal lied). That you can not recognize the truth is not surprising considering your repeated attempts to ptomulgate the LIE, that Nifong intended to prosecute the men he had indicted for first degree rape, only for sexual assault and kidnappng, not rape.

So it comes down to, if you do believe the DNA found on Crystal, rather than dodging and waffling and outright LYING, explain why Nifong concealed the evidence and made no effort to identify the sources.

Kenhyderal:

One more.

If Nifong truly considered Crystal a person of consequence, why did he go almost 9 months without interviewing her directly. In a rape case, a DA who treats the victim/complaining witness as a person of consequence does not put off interviewing her for 9 months. Or do you believe he does?

Another one for Kenhyderal:

"The details of any investigations that Coman and Winstead conducted are sealed. Cooper was under great pressure by powerful interests to drop the charges."

The only pressure exerted on AG Cooper was pressure exerted by the black publisher of a black newspaper on AG Cooper to prosecute the defendants and find them guilty.

Your link doesn't say anything different than what I've posted -- quantification of chloral hydrate and it's metabolites is done via gas chromatography.

You're caught up on the "Chloral hydrate is not detected on routine, commercially available drug screens." sentence. All this means is that abuse of the drug would not show up on an employers' drug screen.

The ability to test for it in a case like Crystal Mangum's has been around for years.

To borrow a phrase, consider yourself elucidated.

Kenny stated: Lets go over this again;

Kenny, you have to be more patient with your critics. They do not fully appreciate the consistency of your response. You must elaborate with the details of your thinking--what is obvious to you is not obvious to others.

DA Nifong had no intent to conceal the DNA evidence

How do we know this? Because Nifong said so. In the Canadian legal system, participants have found that the most effective way to determine whether someone is lying is to ask the accused liar if they are telling the truth. Although Kenny acknowledges that American cynics claim that Nifong's actions demonstrate no indication that he intended to turn over the underlying data without a court order, bitterly fighting the court order due to cost constraints, these cynics have not proven that, in the absence of the court order, Nifong did not intend to turn over the evidence, voluntarily incurring the costs he argued were unfair.

and it was ultimately turned over to the defence long before any trial.

Kenny notes that it is unfair to hold a prosecutor to separate requirements imposed by both state law and the Federal constitution. Because no trial had yet been scheduled, the evidence was provided in plenty of time to meet the Brady requirements. The NC law regarding the results of NTO that requires timely disclosure to all persons subject to the order (including those not indicted) of the results of the NTO can be ignored as long as the Brady requirements are met. Moreover, the NC law provides no penalties for noncompliance, and it is thus clear than compliance is optional.

DA Nifong believed he has sufficient evidence anyway, without a match, to proceed with kidnapping and sexual assault charges against the three.

The Canadian justice system appropriately takes all rape allegations as fact unless the accused can prove with absolute certainty that the alleged rape could not possibly have occurred. Moreover, in cases like this where the victim's (in Canada, she is not an alleged victim) memory is impaired and there are no cooperating eyewitnesses, in order to solve the crime, the prosecutor must select defendants to prosecute. This strategy is most effective when there is some evidence to link the defendants to the crime. In this case, attendance at the party, identifications in a flawed selection procedure and the non-excluded DNA met the requirement. The idea behind this strategy is that if the defendants did not commit the crime, a possible conviction will generally cause them to name the actual perpetrators.

In addition, the botched investigation by the Durham Police made it impossible to solve this case. Although Kenny recognizes that Nifong played an active role in the case far earlier than a prosecutor typically becomes involved, the investigation was already hopelessly botched by that point. As a result, the seemingly random indictments were the only possible method of solving the crime.

I hope that helps. Kenny, you should fill in more details I have overlooked.

He mischaracterize the Canadian Judicial System. Yeah, Canada has no provision like the 5th Amendment that allows criminals to refuse to answer questions under oath without being held in contempt or committing perjury. There was a lot more inculpatory evidence then just being at the house when the alleged crime took place. Certainly enough for a prosecutor to indict. But, with dream-team defence lawyers, a botched Police investigation, a flawed photo-line-up and a poor minority woman as the alleged victim this was an easy case for a lawyer to get even a guilty client off.

Kennyhyderal asserts: There was a lot more inculpatory evidence then just being at the house when the alleged crime took place.

Kenny, I can't help you explain this statement. I have seen no inculpatory evidence to incriminate Finnerty and Seligmann other than their presence at the party and Mangum's selection of them in a photo-line up that even you concede was "flawed." Apparently neither did the special prosecutors. Can you enlighten us with specifics?

Kenhuderal:

"Canada has no provision like the 5th Amendment that allows criminals to refuse to answer questions under oath without being held in contempt or committing perjury."

You are one who believes certain accused criminals be presumed guilty. In your mind, , people like Crystal should be presumed innocent. People like the innocent Lacrosse drfendants should be presumed guilty.

The 5th Amendment: "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

What the 5th amendment guarantees is no one "shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself", which means no one can be compelled to confess to a crime, that someone is not obligated to answer questions by the authorities if he, someone may refuse to answer a question if he believes it will incriminate him, i.e., testify against himself. Explain how refusing to answer a question adds up to perjury.

Crystal was advised she did not to have answer questions from the police after she was arrested. Does that mean Crystal should be presumed guilty of perjury.You obviously believe the Lacrosse players who declined to talk to the police should have been presumed guilty of perjury.

"There was a lot more inculpatory evidence then just being at the house when the alleged crime took place."

You have never demonstrated what that evidence was.

And the statement is meaningless in view of the fact that no crime happened.

"Certainly enough for a prosecutor to indict."

Do you seriously believe Nifong told the Grand Jury that the DNA found on Crystal, who had alleged a semen depositing rape, did not match the DNA of the men he wanted indicted for first degree rape for that semen depositing rape? Now repeat the lie that Nifong did not have the defendants indicted for rape.

"But, with dream-team defence lawyers,"

You, like Nifong, believe the Lacrosse defendants should have been denied their right to counsel.

"a botched Police investigation,"

Who controlled the botched Police investigation? Nifong, who you say was acting on behalf of justice for Crystal.

"a flawed photo-line-up"

Who arranged for the flawed lineup? Nifong, who you say was acting in the cause of justice for Crystal.

Who concealed the DNA evidence, which you say came from rapists? Nifong who you say acted on behalf of justice for Crystal. Now let's hear you lie again that Nifong had no intention of concealing the evidence.

"and a poor minority woman as the alleged victim this was an easy case for a lawyer to get even a guilty client off."

Irrelevant statement, as there was no evidence that those indicted were guilty.

And who made no attempt to directly interview the complaining witness for almost 9 months? Nifong, who you say was acting on behalf of justice for Crystal. Even if the defendants were guilty, failing to directly interview the complaining witness for such a long time is what would have compromised any chance for a conviction.

Kennyhyderal Supporter said...

Kennyhyderal,

I think I understand your point.

In the flawed American legal system, the prosecutor not only is required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that a specific crime occurred, but also has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the specific defendants charged with that crime committed it. That requirement is unfair in a case like this where a crime was alleged, but because of the impairment and trauma suffered by the alleged victim, the specific details of the crime and specific perpetrators were unknown. Moreover, the lack of physical evidence that resulted from a botched investigation made it impossible to determine these required specifics.

As you have implied, the enlightened Canadian justice system can solve these problems in the name of fairness. If a prosecutor has enough evidence to support probable cause that some crime occurred, and a group of suspects, even if the prosecutor does not know the specifics of the crime or the specific perpetrators, he can simply prosecute some random subset of the group of suspects. Group guilt is a reasonable concept in the name of fairness.

Kenny, did I get it correct?

Kenny:

Crystal wasn't raped. The proof of that is beyond argument. The system eventually worked, in spite of Mike Nifong's efforts to manipulate it for his personal gain. Nifong paid dearly for his wrongdoings in prosecuting Crystal's rape hoax. Although Crystal got a free pass for lying about being raped (and someone died who might not have died had she been appropriately dealt with for her role for trying to frame three innocent men for a crime that didn't occur), karma eventually caught up with her and she is now serving a long prison sentence. That is reality and nothing you or Sid do or say can change it.

If you see the arc of the moral universe gradually and inevitably bending away from you, then you are on the wrong side of justice.

"@ KH Supporter: Even a properly conducted photo line-up can identify the wrong suspect let alone an improper one."

So Kenny believes this justifies an improper lineup procedure in which the complaining witness is coached to identify the people the DA has already presumed guilty.

"DA Nifong had serious concerns about the Seligman alibi which appeared to him to be constructed and contrived."

How could Nifong have believed that Reade Seligman's alibi was contrived when he refused to even look at the evidence. Rather, Nifong knew Reade Seligman, unlike Crystal Mangum when she murdered Reginald Daye. had a solid alibi and that he, Nifong, would never have been able to charge Reade Seligman whom Nifong had presumed guilty.

"When realization that most likely Police would soon be descending on the house the mob suddenly cleared out and the place fell into silent darkness?"

There was no such realization. There had been no crime and the Lacrosse players knew that.

Again, champion of justice NOT believes the accused shoud have been presumed guilty. Krnnyhas provided zero evidence that te crime of which he presumes the Lacrosse players guilty, ever happened. Very Trumpian, Kenny.

This is what your drivel means.

After Crystal was arrested after she stabbed Reginald Daye, she was advised of her right to remain silent. According to you, if the DA went to court to get a court order, that Crystal had to talk to the police, she should have been cited for contempt if she still refused to do so.

Our Constitution, our supreme law, says Crystal can not be forced to talk to the police. That you think that people you dislike and resent, if charged with a crime, should be compelled to talk to the police does not trump the Constitution.

Kennhyderal:

You have said, actually, if the Lacrosse players did not admit guilt prior to any trial or arraignment or or trial, then they should have been cited for contempt or charged with perjury. How is that compatible with the presumption of innocence, which applies also in Canadian Law? It doesn't.

Again I remind you, everything you cite as evidence has not been established by you as evidence. Guilt is not established by presenting only incriminating evidence and ignoring exculpatory evidence, something of which you choose to remain ignorant.

Jeremiah 5:21(NIV) applies to you: "Hear this, you foolish and senseless people, who have eyes but do not see, who have ears but do not hear".

More for Kenhyderal:

An example of why we in the US have the 5th Amendment:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostile_witness:

"During direct examination, if the examining attorney who called the witness finds that their testimony is antagonistic or contrary to the legal position of their client, the attorney may request that the judge declare the witness hostile. If the request is granted, the attorney may proceed to ask the witness LEADING QUESTIONS(emphasis added). Leading questions either suggest the answer...or challenge (impeach) the witness' testimony."

The defendant in a criminal trial is not required to take the stand.

During Crystal's murder trial, could the prosecution have called Crystal to the stand? Obviously no, one reason being that the prosecution could have had her declared a hostile witness and then have asked her leading questions, forced her to testify against herself in other words.

Under your misinterpretation of the 5th Amendment, if Crystal refused to take the stand if called by the Prosecutor, she should have been cited for contempt.

But then, you seem to think people you dislike or resent should not be protected against forced self incrimination.

Kenny,

I am having a hard time understanding how many mystery rapists you believe raped Magnum at the lacrosse party. I asked this question last month, but you must have missed the comment and did not respond.


Kenny stated: Five other samples, two explained by Crystal's consensual sexual history, and three not explained by her week long minute by minute accounting of her time.

I believe that you are mistaken about the number of unexplained male DNA samples found on and in Magnum.

Wikipedia observes: At Nifong's subsequent ethics trial on June 14, 2007, the complete DNA findings were revealed during defense attorney Brad Bannon's testimony. According to conservative estimates, the lab had discovered at least two unidentified males' DNA in Mangum's pubic region; at least two unidentified males' DNA in her rectum; at least four to five unidentified males' DNA on her underpants; and at least one identified male's DNA in her vagina.

January 20, 2017 at 7:49 AM


I assume you believe the number of mystery rapists is at least equal to the number of unmatched DNA samples found in and on Magnum. Otherwise, we are left with the conclusion that, in addition to being raped by three mystery rapists, Magnum also misstated her consensual sexual history. I understand you adopted the mystery rapist theory to explain unmatched DNA without needing to concede that Magnum was not accurate. As a result, we are left with the conclusion that Magnum was raped at the lacrosse party by at least nine or ten mystery rapists. Is that correct?

Given the small size of the bathroom, I assume the mystery rapists entered and left the bathroom during the rape. Cynics have argued the bathroom was too small for three rapists and a victim. I assume you would agree that the bathroom was too small for ten rapists and a victim at the same time.

In her written statement, Roberts claims she was with Magnum for all but five minutes after the dance ended. Is five minutes enough time for mystery rapists to grab Magnum, drag her into the bathroom, have at least nine of ten mystery rapists rape her as they enter and leave the bathroom, dress her, with time to stagger around the backyard where Roberts retrieved her?

Thanks for your help in clarifying these details.

It would seem that Mangum should have heeded the advice of her attorney. He warned her of the dangers of testifying. She chose to disregard his advice. The train wreck that her testimony became was entirely of her own doing.

If Mangum was going to testify she should have told the truth or, at the very least, been careful to shape her testimony so that it comported with the evidence in her case. Instead she got caught telling a few whoppers and she was rightly eviscerated by the prosecution. That is the risk that a defendant takes when the testify on their own behalf: the jury is going to disregard their lies and probably a good portion of everything lese they testify about.

It's funny that you were talking about the 5th amendment the other day. The lacrosse players and everyone at the party was willing and anxious to speak to and cooperate with the police and disgraced, disbarred and bankrupted former DA Nifong, but the police and prosecution didn't want to listen to them or consider their evidence. You know who did take the 5th? Mangum, after she stabbed Mr. Daye. She fled and when she was later arrested she refused to give a statement. As a Canadian, what does it say to you when someone flees from a crime scene and then refuses to talk to the police when they are later apprehended? That they must be guilty as hell, right?

Check out http://criminal.findlaw.com/criminal-rights/miranda-rights-and-the-fifth-amendment.html

"What are the "Miranda Rights"?

In 1966, the U.S. Supreme Court decided the historic case of Miranda v. Arizona, declaring that whenever a person is taken into police custody, before being questioned he or she must be told of the Fifth Amendment right not to make any self-incriminating statements. As a result of Miranda, anyone in police custody must be told four things before being questioned:

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you."

Niranda Eights stem directly from rights guaranteed by the Constitution to any accused, including rights guaranteed by the 5th Amendment..

While we are n the subjectof Constitutional Rights, another right guaranteed by the Constitution is the right to be representedby counsel. When it comes tto Constitutional rights and who is entittlrd to them, Nifong, your crusader for justice, made public statements which undermined the rightto counsel, e.g. why would anyone need alawyer if they had domne nothing and had not been charged(the context of that stattement was Nifong's public statements that members of the Lacrosse team had done something criminal and that he would be charging them).

And your statementsabout the defendants and their lawyersindicate you believe that the defendants should not have availed themselves oftheir right to counsel, even ifyou would deny that.

You are a guilt presuming rraist from Canada who would deny the right of US citizens charge with a crime under US laaw.

Whatever JSwift is saying, you are trying to duck a fact, you have provided zero factual evidence that the DNA was deposited on Crystal at the party.

And you continue to duck this issue, if you really do believe the DNA came from rapists, then explain why Nifong concealed the evidence rather than trace it back to its sources, why Nifong had indicted, for first degree rape, three men who were not the sources.

On the same subject, recall your comments from February 4, 2017 at 8:23 AM, and your comments about Reade Seligman's alibi being contrived. You believe Reade Seligman was guilty of rape, even though his DNA did not match the DNA found on Crystal. You will probably go back to "sexual assault" again. And again I will remind you, the "sexual assault" alleged by Ceystal was a semen depositing Rape, and Nifong had Reade Seligman indicted for Rape.

As Walt and others explained, you are wrong yet again on a very basic and simple point. The Miranda case deals with the 5th amendment rights of criminal suspect in police custody. More specifically, it requires the police to inform suspects in police custody of their 5th amendment rights before questioning them. The Miranda case creates no new right; it simply instructs the police that they must tell suspects they take into custody of their already existing 5th amendment rights before interrogating them.

You have repeatedly and falsely claimed that the Duke lacrosse players refused to speak to and cooperate with the police, even though it would have been their right to do so, and that their supposed refusal to speak with the police (as well as their decision to hire lawyers to represent them) is indicative of guilt.

Kenny,

I cannot find the original source. Sorry.

My recollection is that the DNA samples were from separate, distinct donors. That would suggest a large number of mystery rapists. However, even assuming duplication between locations, you should modify your narrative to include at least four or five mystery rapists. Otherwise, you are forced to admit that Mangum's admitted consensual sexual history was incomplete. I thought the point of your mystery rapist narrative was to avoid that admission.

In addition, in her written statement, Magnum also claimed that one of her assailants forced her to provide oral sex and ejaculated in her mouth. She then claimed she spit the semen onto the floor. She repeated the oral sex allegation with the special prosecutors. I believe male DNA (from one or two donors) that did not match any of the players was also found in her mouth. That was not listed by Wikipedia. If I am correct, that may be an additional mystery rapist or two to include in your narrative.

How many mystery rapists raped her anally? I thought she claimed only that she was raped anally once. Were both of the unidentified males' DNA found in her rectum from mystery rapists or was one from "secondary transfer contamination" as you suggested?

Are you suggesting that all of the four or five males' DNA found in her underparts and the two males' DNA found on her pubic region was from "secondary transfer contamination" or did some come from mystery rapists? If only some of it came from mystery rapists, how can the prosecutor tell which donors are mystery rapists and which are not?

"Extracorporeal DNA from secondary transfer contamination."

The most credible explanation of how DNA COMPATIBLE with David Evans' DNA got on Crystal's false fingernail.

The least credible explanation: David Evans assaulted Crystal.

What Kenny does not want to deal with: DNA MATCHING David Evans' DNA was not found on Crystal's person.

What Kenny does not want to deal with: DNA MATCHING David Evans' DNA was not found on Crystal's person, and Crystal had identified him with 90% certainty as one of the men who hao perpetrted a semen depositing gang rape on her.

There is no definitive conclusions that can be drawn from the 1844 pages of material from SBI about the number of unidentified DNA profiles found except that Finnerty, Seligman and Evans contributed none that were found on the submitted samples save on a towel and on Crystal's fingernail which could not exclude Evans.

Yes there can be definitive conclusions drawn, that there is no evidence that the three defendants could have perpetrated the alleged sexual assault described by Crystal, a semen depositing TAPE. And, there had no Semen depositing rape perpetrated at the party. If there had been, DNA from people at the party would have been found on the rape kit materials, Alkaline Phosphatase would have been detected on the rape kit materials.

That no forensic training, no forensic experience Kenhyderal does not know what definitive conclusions are is irrelevant.

Kenhyderal:

The 1844 pages to which you refer came from DNA Security, not SBI.

And you have yet to address the issue, if the DNA came from Rapists, why did Nifong conceal the evidence and make no effort to identify the sources, why he sought indictments for first degree rape against men whose DNA did not match the DNA found by DNA Security.

And why did Nifong have conducted a lineup procedure consisting only of pictures of men whose DNA did not match the DNA found on the Rape kit?

I remind you, the justification for the NTO requiring the Caucasian members of the Lacrosse team to give samples for DNA analysis was, the DNA on the rape kit materials would identify the perpetrators.

Well Sid's great plan to spring Crystal is to ask the Middle District to let her free on bail pending the court's review of her Habeas petition. Sid thinks that because the Attorney General asked for an additional thirty days to respond to Crystal's petition, she should be bonded out. Sid's main theory behind this latest frivolous motion is that he previously wrote to a number of people, including Josh Stein when he was a member of the legislature. As if Sid's letters provide anything like the information needed to respond to Crystal's petition. While I won't do Crystal or Sid's work for them, bail is possible under certain circumstances when an application for Habeas Corpus relief is pending. Suffice, to say, Sid has not favored us with any citation to authority for the court to issue bail, nor has he presented facts which would lead the District Court to admit Crystal to bail. Further, Sid and Crystal don't tell us why the court should reverse its already entered order granting the state time to reply. But, no one has ever successfully accused Sid or Crystal of being effective advocates.

Technically, the filing was a Response to the Respondent's Motion for an Extension to File. Crystal did reasonably request relief to include a transfer to house arrest. She did not request that bail be established... although that is an interesting suggestion.

An untimely response as the court had already granted the extension.

"Crystal did reasonably request relief to include a transfer to house arrest. She did not request that bail be established... although that is an interesting suggestion."

Again, you failed to do any research to find out what the federal rules are for granting of bail pending a hearing. Bail is the term of art in federal court for any release from incarceration under any terms. As you did not do the work to figure out how that is done, nor did you show opposing counsel the courtesy of filing your motion before the court granted the State's request, I won't help you in figuring out how to do the job. Suffice to say, I doubt that Crystal can meet the requirements for bail pre-hearing.

I find it interesting that Sid is still referencing a plea deal to time served and ten years of probation (which is actually not possible in North Carolina, the limit is 5 absent extraordinary circumstances). He had posted a letter Meier sent to Crystal (Sid pulled it down), and Meier explicitly stated that plea offer was never made. Oddly, Crystal has not claimed Meier lied to her, or filed a Bar Complaint based on that lie - if that plea offer was made, and Meier is directly lying to his client in writing, she'd have a strong claim. Odd that Sid pushes this, but Crystal doesn't.

Doesn't matter when it was filed, when was it served? They have 30 days to respond from the date you serve them - either via sheriff or certified mail. So, you are wondering why you don't have a response - what day was WRAL served with the lawsuit? Even if they were served that day (and they clearly weren't), they still have over 10 days left before their motion to dismiss and request for sanctions is due.

I have asked you about Nifong and the DNA evidence found on Crystal. If you believe the DNA came from Rapists, then explain why DA Nifong concealed the evidence rather than identify the sources. Explain why had a photo lineup conducted which included only pictures of men whose DNA did not match the DNA found on Crystal. Explain why Nifong sought indictments for first degree rape against three men whose DNA did not match the DNA found on Crystal.

Your explanations have been, shall we say bizarre, evasive, and out and out lies: Nifong did not conceal the evidence; Nifong did not have the three defendants indicted for Rape; Nifong was trying to convict the men he had indicted for first degree rape , not for first degree rape but for sexual assault and kidnapping.

So why do you expect anyone to believe you are qualified to say that the US Justice system is "widely acknowledged as being in drastic need of reform."

For that matter, your repeated comments, that Crystal was victimized, because she could not beat the rap for murdering Reginald Daye, is purely delusional.

And that you can not comprehend the injustice of the Duke Rape Hoax, perpetrated on the Lacrosse defendants, establishes you as one who is incapable of recognizing injustice.

gui, mon ami,

Thanks for the compliment. Crystal is cute, and has a nice personality. Many good qualities that would make a good mate. However, I am more than thirty years older than she is... which I think would be the major consideration for me.

As far as getting close to her without supervision, I do not see that as being a problem as I am not a jealous type, I am not an alcoholic or one to lose control of my mental faculties, and cannot envision a situation in which I would attempt to strangle her to death... So, that issue is moot.

No serious plans can be made until she is out of jail... which should be within a matter of weeks or months (at the latest).

Well, Milton Walker was not an alcoholic or violent but Crystal went after him. Reginald Daye, in spite of the opinions of Sidney, was not an alcoholic or a violent man and did not try to strangle Crystal in a jealous rage. FInally, no one at the Lacrosse party ever assaulted or raped Crystl but she went after them. The issue is far from moot.

It has been 43 days since the end of 2016, 226 days since the end of June 2016, 294 days since April 24, 2016, 333 days since the Ides of March 2016, 1,177 days since Mangum was convicted of murdering Reginald Daye and 3,528 days since Mike Nifong was disbarred. Mangum is scheduled to be released from prison in 3,302 days.

"Dr. Harr, of course, is being facetious, unlike several unethical posters here, who qualified or not and in violation of the so-called Goldwater rule of professional ethics, make psychiatric diagnosis, unseen and unknown, about people who hold a different point of view from them on the widely held but erroneous metanarrative about Crystal Mangum."

Irrelevant statement as the metanarrative to which Kenny refers does not exist.

The only metanarrative in the Duke Rape hoax was the metanarrative, that well off Caucasian men raped a poor, black stripper. Kenny documents that Crystal was not raped when he presents zero evidence that she was raped, when he produces speculation as to why there was no evidence, and ducks and evades and out out lies when confronted with glaring inconsistencies in his "different point of view".
