"Sorry. There was a lull in the rain. I reached the library dry and intact. I will post the blog in a few minutes. Enjoy."

But the water running off your carcass has seriously polluted Ealeigh.

Your comment lacks logic. First and foremost, I am DRY. I made it to the library, and therefore the computer dry. Therefore, how can water be running off my body (or as you put it, carcass)? Doesn't make sense.

Anyway, look at the sharlog and try to address the important issues posed by the sharlog: namely, do you agree with the probation sentence? do you believe that Sharad Amtey died due to natural causes, strangulation, or "complications of an assault"?; August 9, 2014 at 10:02 AM

Finally, the media’s best kept secret from the public. Find out the real link between the Carpetbagger families of the Duke Lacrosse defendants and the media. Visit the following link. I welcome your response.

Tin-Foil Hat said...: As I have so frequently stated, the Grievance Commission of the North Carolina State Bar used all of the creative juices it could muster to come up with an excuse for disbarring former Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong. They are so elaborate and nonsensical that not even Nifong bashers can make sense of them. The problem stems from the fact that no one can explain why Mike Nifong was disbarred… the only prosecutor to be disbarred by the North Carolina State Bar since its inception in 1933. He certainly did not withhold discovery from defense attorneys of the Duke Lacrosse defendants. He had his staff deliver more than a thousand pages of discovery in three sets to attorneys for the defendants within 24 hours of the defense’s motion. What the media doesn’t want the public to know is that defense attorneys did not reciprocate when prosecutors sought discovery held by defense.; August 9, 2014 at 10:14 AM

Probably because you went into a restroom, towelled of, then wrung the towel out some where in the stacks.

What does not make sense is why the library authorities would allow you to drip corruption in the library.

Anonymous said...: It's the same crap Sid has been spewing. He ignores that the autopsy was reviewed by Dr. Roberts - and errors were found, but the conclusion was confirmed, so she wasn't exculpatory. DT's were ruled out.

He's doing his same whining that he disagrees with the conclusion, and therefore the conclusion must be wrong. He doesn't want an investigation, he wants someone to agree with him - because he's never wrong (even when he is - though he's refused to admit it).

I really hope Sid understands everyone but Tin-Foil considers him a joke, and is just having fun with this, and doesn't think anyone really takes him seriously.

He refuses to engage in an honest discussion about anything, so how could he be taken seriously? Either you agree with him, despite evidence, or you are wrong.; August 9, 2014 at 1:12 PM

Anonymous said...: Dr. Harr,

I think it was complications of an assualt, which the strangulation itself may not have caused the death, but the health condition that the victim suffered was exacerbated by the strangulation event - causing death. Of course, I have only the news coverage to go on to make that judgement. Sad case.

How can Dr. Radissh (sp?) say that Dr. Nichols' autopsy report was appropriate and 'correct', when even Dr. Nichols himself testified that the report was erroneous on some issues - and the second exceedingly tardy M.E. report stated on record that Dr. Nichols report was seriously deficient of the truth and professionalism and 'correctness'?

This state seriously has major issues. Who is in charge of the M.E. system? Ms. Woos and then the governor right? Looks like you have some more letters to write and document here to see what they have to say about these issues and her written reply. Remembering, of course, that if they do not respond or deal with the issues, (since they are responsible for doing just that), it then becomes professional neglect and contributing to potential harm and even death, and continued errors in all future M.E. reports, for ALL NC citizens and visitors to this state.

This places all under undue threat of harm,(like for example the case of the six year old dying of the carbon monoxide poisoning mentioned in the news).

If you send a copy of any letters you may write to Ms. Woos and the governor to the news outlets as well, you can also document their responses here - or lack thereof on these serious M.E. issues that have potential to negatively affect all.; August 9, 2014 at 4:20 PM

This seems like a serious legal issue involving the case, since now the head of the M.E. system is in essence saying that Dr. Nichols lied on the stand that his own report is wrong, and that the second M.E. from Va. doesn't know what the heck she is talking about in her report that contradicts Dr. Nichol's report but is more in-line with Duke's medical reports.

Tin-Foil Hat said...: I am not alone in my view that the prosecution and persecution of Crystal Gail Mangum is nothing more than a vendetta by the state and the mainstream media because of her role as a victim and accuser in the Duke Lacrosse case of March 2006.

Anonymous said...: How could Dr. Nichols even justify that the death was a casualty of the knife wound, when in essense he is claiming that Duke did not treat the lung infection or any of the other wounds as noted by the discrepancies between the Duke medical reports and his autopsy report at all. So therefore Duke is quilty of serious medical negligence and malpractice by not even providing Mr. Daye with basic life saving medical services that Dr. Nichols claims would be necessary in order for Mr. Daye to survive the defensive knife wounds as noted on his autopsy report and in direct contridiction to Duke's medical reports.

Rather than realize they were likely done, and the answers weren't helpful to Crystal, he assumes they just weren't done.

Dr. Harr,

"I know that you are a doctor"

No, he is a minimally trained, minimally experienced ddderson with MD appended, inappropriately, to his name

"and do not want to harm another doctor:

ARE YOU SERIOUS???!!!

"noted by you're excusing Dr. Nichols of his fraud"

Impossible since Dr. Nichols committed no fraud.

"and wrongfully accusing and contributing to the wrongful imprisonment of Ms. Mangum,"

Also impossible. Crystal committrd murder

"but this is not the first and only case that is documented that he has made errors that have caused major legal issues with other murder cases."

It is not even the first. It is not even the first. It is not the first instance in which Sidney tries to claim he s brilliant after showing what an idiot he is.

"Dr. Harr,"

You mean SIDNEY the minimally trained,minimally experienced person with MD inappropriately to his name.

"By stating that Dr. Nichols' autopsy report is 'correct', the head of the N.C. Medical Examiner system has in essense now stated that Duke is lying about what they did to Mr. Daye to cause his brain death,"

No, SIDNEY the minimally trained,minimally experienced person with MD inappropriately to his name is fantasizing about what caused Mr. Daye's death. His death was a direct result of the stab wound inflicted by Crystal.

"(if they did), and his ultimate death by their placement and removal of their life support machines."

The need to institute life support would never have arisen had Crystal not stabbed Mr. Daye.

"I wonder if she realizes that and what she plans to do about the serious issues with Duke's malpractice and/or lying about it that she is in essence claiming in her response to you."

Judging from how she behaved at the end of the duke rape hoax, she is not capable of that kind of planning.

Or is she planning to deal with the way dealt with the rape hoax, continue to lie about it

Tin-Foil Hat said...: Many people keep their feelings about this case bundled up inside because they lack the will to do anything to rectify the failings of the state’s justice system. Others remain quiet because they lack the courage to take a righteous stand against an unpopular position. This is understandable after witnessing the brutalization of former Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong by the state and the media for his actions in doing the right thing in prosecuting the Duke Lacrosse case. Courageously prosecuting the Duke case in the true sense as a “minister of justice,” he butted heads with the Powers-That-Be who demanded that the charges against the student/athlete/partygoers be dropped. As a result, the state went through extraordinary means to make an example of Mr. Nifong… something which they did very well, as is evidenced by the fact that there is little if any movement to go against the Powers’ will by offering support to Ms. Mangum.; August 10, 2014 at 7:35 AM

So, do you believe that she acted in self-defense, in which case the cause of death and medical treatment was/is totally irrelevant (though on this blog you and others once said she should not argue self-defense because then she would be admitting to first-degree murder, something that is completely and totally legally incorrect - she'd just be admitting to stabbing).

If she was not acting in self-defense, then the medical treatment would only be relevant for manslaughter v. murder.

So, did the jury get self-defense wrong, you believe she is totally innocent, and all your blathering about the treatment is irrelevant, or do you think she was not acting in self defense?; August 10, 2014 at 8:30 AM

Anonymous said...: Ten-gallon hat said,

Dr. Nichols conveniently omitted the events that contributed to Daye’s death that included delirium tremens, an esophageal intubation that precipitated cardiac arrest and brain death, a weeklong comatose state, and the elective removal from life support by the medical staff at Duke University Hospital that resulted in Daye’s demise.

The autopsy report can be compared with other medical records and documents in order to support the premise that the true cause of Daye’s death had nothing to do with the stab wound, but rather the errantly placed endotracheal tube.

That the North Carolina justice system has been hijacked is realized by the fact that the mainstream media, politicians, civil rights organization, and community leaders, despite having full knowledge of the significant problems with the autopsy report and prosecution’s case against Mangum, have elected to remain mute and idle… acting as enablers or conspirators after the fact. No one has Nifongian courage to challenge the blatant and disparate legal mistreatment of Crystal Mangum by the state.; August 10, 2014 at 4:11 PM

Except, as has been noted - the autopsy was reviewed by an expert, who discussed each of those issues, and addressed the discrepancies between the autopsy and the medical records, and discussed the injury and course of treatment, and concluded that while the report was sloppy, the cause of death was correct - Complications from the stab wound.

You can scream all you want in disagreement with the investigation, but please stop pretending one wasn't done. It was done, it just didn't agree with Sid's paranoid worldview, so he disregards it.; August 10, 2014 at 4:21 PM

The governor is not accessible to anyone except his big donors, cronies, and GOP mucky-mucks. McCrory turns a blind eye and a deaf ear towards ordinary Tar Heelians with serious concerns. It's very sad.

I do not ignore that Mangum stabbed Daye... she did. However, the stab wound was not life-threatening. It was successfully treated by Duke trauma surgeons and Daye had a post-operative prognosis for a full recovery. It was the esophageal intubation that precipitated a cascade of events that resulted in Daye's death.

As far as stabbing Daye, I believe she did so in self-defense... after all prior to the stabbing Daye had busted down the locked bathroom door and dragged her out by her hair. Keep in mind that Daye was never charged with assault and battery for that. Instead, the prosecution painted him as a saint... something which Mangum's turncoat attorney Meier didn't challenge.; August 11, 2014 at 7:21 AM

Can you recognize that if Crystal hadn't stabbed him, he wouldn't have been in the hospital for the Duke University Hospital Staff to intubate him in the first place?

Had Crystal not stabbed him, Duke wouldn't have been treating him, and he wouldn't have died.

Anonymous said...: Remember - the only real dispute in this case (despite Sid's claims - but certainly as far as self-defense)is what happened after Daye pulled Crystal out of the bathroom.

Did he let her go, and she ran into the kitchen to get a knife and come back at him as he says (which means no self-defense, and is what happened with Milton Walker, which is why that testimony hurt so bad); or

Was he holding her down and choking her when she grabbed a knife to stab him and get him off of her, as she says (which means self-defense).

The jury believed him, hence no self-defense. There was no dispute there was a fight, no dispute he kicked in the door and drug her out. It all comes down to what happened next, and the jury believed Daye's version, not Crystal's.

Basically, no matter what happened earlier, she ceased being the aggressor when she she went into the bathroom. But, if he did let her go and went to leave, then he ceased being the aggressor after the bathroom.

It's all who the jury believed about where the stabbing took place - and they believed Daye, not Crystal. It wouldn't matter if Daye had hit her before, or not (she said not, though she is changing that story), or anything else. If he let her go, and she ran to get a knife and came back at him - no self-defense.; August 11, 2014 at 8:12 AM
guiowen said...: The problem, as I see it, is that, after the run-in with Milton Walker, her "friends", such as Sidney and Kenhyderal, could have explained to her that she had just dodged a bullet, and encouraged her to seek some sort of psychological help. Instead, they told her, essentially, that she could get away with just about anything because she had their help, since Sidney, the physician, and Kenny, the master debater, would prove she was always innocent. Thus the next time one of her boyfriends disrespected her, she lost her temper and decided to show him who was boss.

Anonymous said...: Yes and THAT issue did not get resolved with sufficient evidence - so therefore there was not sufficient evidence but there was sufficent reasonable doubt to preclude determining the case on that issue alone.

In addition - apparently the jury was highly questionable in its selection orchestrated by Mr. Meire and the Duke/Durham justice system to be considered fair, reasonable, or free from bias, undue influence and conflict of interests, as well as possible prejudice and discrimination which no one would agree to unless they held the same bias, conflict-of-interest, prejudice and discrimination, and/or were seriously uninformed about the Duke lacrosse case and the hatred that Duke and many of its supporters visibly demonstrate and hold toward Ms. Mangum.

Perhaps if you write a letter of reply to Dr. Radish with the facts of the discrepancies between ALL the medical records and How, Why, When, etc. they were or were not presented into the case - and the consequences of those actions or non-actions, AND copy Dr. Wos and Govenor McCory, AND ask for IMMEDIATE EXPLANATION and relief for the false imprisonment of Ms. Mangum - basing it all on Dr. Radish's highly questionable, unprofessional and negligent reply to you so far, AND document it here for public record so they can not just continue to ignore the issues ... perhaps that might 'work'?

p.s. do not use adjetives to describe what happened - use legally recognized adverbs like professional negligence, fraud, conflict of interest, bias, etc. Also write like the clique - 'just the facts maam'. Try that instead.

p.s.s. like actually show what duke lied about if Dr. Nichols record IS correct as Dr. Radish states, what they lied about if Dr. Nichols admission that his own report contained errors, and then what they lied about if Dr. Roberts version is to be believed. Like that.; August 11, 2014 at 11:00 AM

There is nothing on Young's website about a civil suit that Meier is handling, and in fact, Mr. Young seems awfully upset with Meier for limiting his representation only to the criminal charges.

You are the one asserting a conflict, you'd have to prove a conflict exists - legally the presumption is no conflict - but the law has never been something you paid attention to.

I can't prove a negative - there is zero evidence that Meier represents Young in a civil suit, so that's proof. If you can find proof that there is such a civil suit - it still wouldn't rise to a conflict, but there is no evidence of a civil suit.; August 11, 2014 at 2:41 PM

Who is going to make him? You? Of course you don't have to prove anything, you have no evidence - you just spout off like Sid. The only person who could complain about the representation is Mangum, and so far as I have seen (though I doubt it would be public) she hasn't formally filed any complaints or issues.

And, ask Walt and A Lawyer - the presumption is no conflict - Meier doesn't have to prove anything. Someone who wants to accuse him of a conflict would have to present evidence of a conflict, and he would have to explain that. But, absent proof/evidence - again, it's impossible to prove a negative, so he has nothing to prove.; August 11, 2014 at 2:50 PM

Had Crystal not stabbed him, Duke wouldn't have been treating him, and he wouldn't have died.

no - he said that Mr. Daye busted down the door and dragged her out by the hair which is obvious by the evidence and by his own admission

why don't YOU understand that?

Meier brought all of that up - he repeated it frequently throughout the trial and in his closing. So, that's obviously not what Sid is referring to. Why can't you understand that?

Prosecutors repeatedly stated how kind and gentle Daye was... what a good and decent person... non-violent, etc.

Turncoat Meier didn't challenge this portrayal by bringing up his past criminal record, his drug abuse record and alcoholism, the fact that he was intoxicated. Turncoat Meier never conducted an investigation to interview other girlfriends of Daye's who were alleged to have been abused. Plus Turncoat never mentioned the prior incident of physical abuse by Daye which sent Mangum to the urgent care center... about a week before the stabbing. Meier was content to let prosecution paint Daye as a saint instead of a drunk, jealous, alcoholic abuser the night of the stabbing.; August 12, 2014 at 10:06 AM

I also believe that man's health was going to drag both of them into a formidable hell where he was going to die anyway and she was going to get even more overstressed from his illness. Instead she lost it and sent herself into a formidable hell and saved her husband the trouble. She admitted to attacking him, and indeed thought she killed him when she did, so she plead quilty to voluntary manslaughter which seems reasonable given the circumstances described in the news.

Is there a specific method of writing to a judge for his opinions and insights into a case he presided over in relation to another pending case with similar issues? What is it?

If nothing else, perhaps he can give you advice in how to get the M.E. issues resolved for Ms. Mangum's case especially, and perhaps for both and for all.

Perhaps he will be kind enough to extend his wisdom and support to the rights of all NC citizens on these issues.

Ms. Mangum needs a lawyer with no conflicts to duke, the M.E. system, political aspirations, etc.

Perhaps you can ask him how to resolve the conflict of interest issues with duke for all in NC as well or give advice on how to do so.

Your suggestions are valid, but I have no faith in the judges that have been assigned to Mangum's case or Judge Fox.

I believe that neither the prosecutor nor the judge wanted to impose a jail sentence on Dottie Amtey.

Don't completely understand the question, but the State Bar case against me really had nothing directly to do with my case. The Amtey medical examiner issue had to do with two very different conclusions as cause of death... the first being natural causes, and the second which was presented five weeks later was "complications of an assault."

Are you lying now, or were you lying then?

Neither. That is what I believed then... thinking that Durham prosecutors had some common sense. I had no proof of my own account that they offered Mangum a plea deal and never expressed such.

Furthermore, even if I may have gotten facts incorrect, for it to be a lie there must be an intent to deceive... something which I have never intended.; August 14, 2014 at 8:46 AM

Sorry, Sidney, but I just don't know enough about the details. I'm trying to explain how the judge/prosecutor came to this conclusion, because you specifically asked for comments.

gui, mon ami,

I certainly didn't mean to ridicule and I appreciate your explanation. However, I am of the belief that the prosecutor and judge both felt sympathy for Dottie Amtey... why, I'm not sure. But it seems like they went out of their way to get her off with the lightest sentence possible.

Dr. Harr,

He (the judge) holds professional responsibility in his knowledge of the issues, and would be considered complicite in continued M.E. system dysfunctions that are similar that are not immediately corrected by his own professional actions to insure that the issues are corrected for all. Do you agree? Would that be a correct assumption to make?

Not being a lawyer, I can't really give you a reliable answer. Maybe Walt or A Lawyer might be able to weigh in on your question.

I agree with you that the judge is in a way complicit with the misdeeds and malfeasances of the medical examiner by allowing false and fraudulent statements to be introduced into testimony and considered by the jurors.

Nichols' tongue didn't slip twice. He stated twice during direct exam that the spleen was removed during surgery previously. That is not a slip.

We can parse what it means when you state as fact things that are not true.

Yes, I would and did advise Mangum of accepting a plea deal even though one was apparently not offered to her. Why should she plead guilty to a crime she didn't commit?

If the Appeals Court orders a new trial, Ms. Mangum will still be in need of non-conflicted, non duke biased lawyer to assist in her defense.

Speaking of Perry Mason, seems the NC Medical Examiner Systems saga has just got more a bit more complex. There is an article today in the News and Observer outlining a new case filed by the whistle blower in the M.E. office who discovered the bullet fragment that got Dr. Nichols and apparently himself fired. Well, he resigned and retired, but nevertheless, he is suing for being forced to resign and retire as a victim of a whistle blower vendetta (he alleges) against him after he testified to the SBI in that case about the bullet fragment. Per the M.E. office, he actually documented the bullet incorrectly which is why Dr. Nichols did not turn it over to the SBI (even though Dr. Nichols was fired for it before Ms. Mangum's trial). ???

Perhaps Nichols is right and Duke is horribly wrong in what happened to Mr. Daye in their hospital to cause his death? ???

Anyway, isn't that what the M.E. office is stating by saying there was nothing wrong with Dr. Nichols autopsy report in the Mangum case.

Hope this answers your questions.

Dr. Harr, presumably you failed to read section 17-4 (even though it comes before 17-5). Section 17-4 says:

"§ 17-4. When application denied.
Application to prosecute the writ shall be denied in the following cases:
****
(2) Where persons are committed or detained by virtue of the final order, judgment or decree of a competent tribunal of civil or criminal jurisdiction, or by virtue of an execution issued upon such final order, judgment or decree."

As Walt previously pointed out, this statute means that no court can even consider a habeas petition for Mangum until and unless her conviction is reversed on appeal.

On the series I mentioned previously currently running on the "The Real News" network, the quest speaker is actually a history professor who occassionally works at Chapel Hill (persumably UNC). He is, or was, if I heard what was said correctly, the president of a Black Association of Lawyers. It is an interesting conversation.; August 19, 2014 at 3:24 PM

So does this mean:

1. That the Habeous corpus could have been filed in the two month period that Mr. Meier was acting as a lawyer appointed by the Public Defenders office, but before the final judgement of the actual trial?

1a. Where does it actually state that it has to be submitted after the Appeals Court process, but only AFTER they issue their judgement on the appeal, and only if that judgement orders a news trial?

2. Does execution in the final sentence mean an actual execution, or does it simply mean that some action was executed based upon a final judgement?

It is certainly easy to misinterpret what is written in the statute on this issue.; August 20, 2014 at 2:55 AM

See, this all goes back to further proof that Sid's efforts are all about him, not Crystal. He takes steps that he claims are to help him (his letters, this Writ, many others), and his gullible followers on this board think it's great that he's trying to help Crystal, and ignore that it's all really self-promotion.

Sid knows these efforts will fail - in fact, he counts on it. Because he wants a martyr - that's why he is upset she didn't get LWOP - she will actually get out, and likely in Sid's lifetime - and he loses a cause, so he needs to keep hurting her.

But, in the interim, he will continue to file things he knows will fail, because he wants to pretend he's helping, while really getting his name out, and when they do fail, he blames Duke and the conspiracy, not the law, even though everyone has told him from the beginning he would fail becuse of the law, not Duke.

This whole exercise is Sid's big ego lovefest and it's sad how many of you are sucked in and actually think he is doing anything other than playing you for fools and feeding his narcissistic ego.; August 20, 2014 at 3:08 AM

Anonymous said...: Yeah actually it does - it shows how Sid knew the Habeas was wrong ... Oh, and you couldn't file it before the trial after she was released - she wasn't in custody. The purpose of a Habeas Petition is to have the person brought before a court to challenge their illegal detention - say the folks in Gitmo being held without charges - she was not in custody, so Habeas relief was inapplicable to her.

I know, I'm pointing out why you and Sid are wrong, therefore I'm a troll because you are as scared of the truth and seeing Sid for what he is as you are of little men hiding under bridges.

If pointing out why Habeas was denied is off topic you've managed to lower my already infinitesimal opinion of your intelligence.; August 20, 2014 at 4:12 AM

Anonymous said...: Okay - make this clear on the law:

1. A Writ of Habeas Corpus cannot be granted after someone is being held/incarcerated based on a Conviction/Judgment - that's what appeals and MARs are for. So, Sid can file all the Writs he wants, they will never be granted, because they are the wrong pleading, not because of a conspiracy.

2. A Writ could not have been filed before the trial while Mangum was out on bond, because she was not being held - and a Writ is used to have someone brought before a court to justify their further detention - no detention, no Writ.

Therefore - Sid can file all the Writs he wants, and say whatever he wants in them, they are useless to helping Crystal. The only things that can help Crystal are her appeal (which is underway), and if that is unsuccessful, a further appeal, or a MAR (Motion for Appropriate Relief).

Because - as has been pointed out - once there has been a trial, and a conviction (Judgment), as there was in this case - a Writ is improper - the case gets resolved via appeal. That was noted a few comments ago.

So, what's wrong with it is that a Writ is used pre-conviction, an appeal is used post-conviction.

That's the law, so what's wrong with it is that he is ignoring the proper legal procedure, and then wondering why it's not working. It's not working because legally the courts cannot grant a Writ under the circumstances Mangum is in - they will address her case/issues in the appeal which is ongoing.; August 20, 2014 at 5:04 AM

Anonymous said...: Mr. Meier's legal strategy was to tell his client, Ms. Mangum, that he intended to ask the judge for sufficient time to present his case for her defense professionally, which he did but his request was denied by the judge, and which is what Mr. Meier based his application for appeal for Ms. Mangum. So there was no time for a Habeous Corpus to be written either based upon his client's understanding of his intentions in his request for more time to assist in her defense and the quickness of the trial itself, coupled with receiving the second autopsy report just hours before the end of the trial.

No, a writ of habeas corpus is not a substitute for an appeal. In re Burton, 257 N.C. 534, 126 S.E.2d 581 (1962). In habeas corpus proceedings, the court is not permitted to act as one of errors and appeals, but the right to afford relief, on such hearings, arises only when the petitioner is held unlawfully or on a sentence manifestly entered by the court without power to impose it. See Burton, Supra. In this case, Mangum was tried by Superior Court, a court that has the power to impose a sentence. Thus, until she has exhausted her appeal and motion for appropriate relief, she has no claim under habeas corpus.

In theory, she might have had the claim prior to conviction, but as has been pointed out correctly when she was on bail, she was not being held and thus no habeas issue. Further, before she made bail, there was no habeas issue as a court had set bail. So in this case, there is no present or past habeas issue. One might arise in the future, but only after appeals are exhausted.

You can write it, but it would be properly denied. Habeas corpus goes to lawful detention, not conflict of interest. Detention is the only issue the court can consider on habeas.

I would add, that habeas would be available if her conviction is affirmed and she has exhausted all her appeals and motion for appropriate relief. Although, habeas petitions in those situations are almost never granted unless there is an intervening change in sentencing law.

Dr. Harr,

If the Appeals Court orders a new trial, Ms. Mangum will still be in need of non-conflicted, non duke biased lawyer to assist in her defense. What would you suggest be done to insure that the Duke / Durham Public Defenders office has no conflict of interest with duke and is thus capable of providing a lawyer to assist Ms. Mangum in a new trial? The first thing would be to get her out of jail, and back on bond release, so that is another thing to consider in insuring the same bias and fraud with the conflicted Public Defenders office does not occur again in her case. What are your thoughts on these issues?

I believe that Crystal should do what I'm doing in my lawsuit against Duke. Represent herself! She's intelligent enough and the State's case is weak to the point of being non-existent. She could've fared much better in the November 2013 trial if she would've represented herself... but she placed her faith in Turncoat Dan Meier. That's why she ended up losing big-time.

I tried to get Mangum to study and prepare to represent herself before, but she lacked confidence and I think she lacked the energy required to seriously prepare her case. Also, I think she thought that even with lousy representation that she would never be convicted of second degree murder or manslaughter. She shouldn't've, but the conspiratorial deck was really stacked against her.

Had I hired an attorney to represent me against Duke, not only would he/she have charged me up the kazoo, but would've sold me out as well. My chances against Duke are much better with me controlling my destiny.; August 20, 2014 at 8:47 AM

Dr. Harr,

Speaking of Perry Mason, seems the NC Medical Examiner Systems saga has just got more a bit more complex. There is an article today in the News and Observer outlining a new case filed by the whistle blower in the M.E. office who discovered the bullet fragment that got Dr. Nichols and apparently himself fired. Well, he resigned and retired, but nevertheless, he is suing for being forced to resign and retire as a victim of a whistle blower vendetta (he alleges) against him after he testified to the SBI in that case about the bullet fragment. Per the M.E. office, he actually documented the bullet incorrectly which is why Dr. Nichols did not turn it over to the SBI (even though Dr. Nichols was fired for it before Ms. Mangum's trial). ???

Perhaps Nichols is right and Duke is horribly wrong in what happened to Mr. Daye in their hospital to cause his death? ???

Anyway, isn't that what the M.E. office is stating by saying there was nothing wrong with Dr. Nichols autopsy report in the Mangum case.

???

Yes, the Medical Examiner's Office is carefully wording its statement by saying the "findings" were accurate and appropriate. This statement by Chief Medical Examiner Radisch is wrong, however as there are too many significant discrepancies with the Nichols autopsy report and other medical records... especially the operative report. I believe the operative report is correct when it states that the only lesions on Daye were a minor one to the spleen and a laceration to the splenic flexure of the colon. It stated that the stomach was normal... not that there was a sutured wound in that organ's fundus. Also, no mention was made in the operative report of a laceration to the left kidney, left lung, or diaphragm... all of which are reported in the autopsy report. Then Nichols contradicts himself with perjured testimony at trial that the spleen was removed at surgery (not according to the operative report)... and then Nichols goes on to describe the spleen in his autopsy report which he stated at trial was missing because it had been removed by surgeons. Not to mention Nichols' observation of multiple "defensive" injuries to the left upper extremity which were contradicted by other reports.

Daye's autopsy report is totally bogus and unreliable not only in its findings but in its conclusion... and everyone is trying to cover this up.; August 20, 2014 at 8:57 AM

Just a few days ago you said you hadn't heard from her in several weeks, and she wasn't responding to you despite you providing her self-addressed stamped envelopes. Was that a lie, or has she since started communicating again? And you explicitly said you had mentioned the Writ and she had not responded - so if you are sure she appreciates it, why isn't she saying so?

What I said was accurate. It had been some time since I heard from her despite enclosing a self-addressed/stamped-envelope the last time I wrote to her. Since I posted that comment, Crystal did telephone me and she later sent some information that I had requested. I told her on the phone that I had filed two habeas corpi on her behalf and she seemed to be pleased that I did.

Hope that untangles any confusion.; August 20, 2014 at 9:01 AM

Sid said:

"Had I represented Mangum, I would've gotten an acquittal... hung jury at worst. The prosecution had no case... period."

That's big talk coming from a man with no legal training who has never won a case.

What you fail to realize is that I would win not because I would be a fantastic court advocate, but because the case against Mangum is so weak. I believe Mangum could've won her case had she represented herself. The only reason she lost is because her turncoat attorney Meier prevented the introduction of any of Dr. Roberts' report or any other medical opinions to contradict Nichols.

So, I'm not bragging or talking big when I say I could've gotten Mangum off had I represented her. Anybody could... even you. It took skill and talent on the part of Meier to lose the case for Mangum while at the same time appearing to put up a hardy defense.; August 20, 2014 at 9:06 AM

SideNote:

Option 1:

cop drives by and figures person will get out of the middle of street as soon as he finishes crossing it in the next minute

Option 2:

cop stops and ends up killing the middle of the street lolligagger, so the street is now blocked off and everyone and their brother and sister and the national guard and news reporters from around the world with tear gas and stun grenades flying about are waiting for Obama and Holder to stand in the middle of the street to make an announcement about the virtues of taking the high road (or at least the middle of the road)

hmmmmm ... so many choices

I definitely would've opted for Option One.; August 20, 2014 at 9:08 AM
