<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">RALEIGH, N.C., April 11 ? North Carolina?s attorney general declared three former Duke University lacrosse players accused of sexually assaulting a stripper innocent of all charges on Wednesday, ending a prosecution that provoked bitter debate over race, class and the tactics of the Durham County district attorney. The attorney general, Roy A. Cooper, said the players ? Reade W. Seligmann, David F. Evans, and Collin Finnerty ? had been wrongly accused by an ?unchecked? and ?overreaching? district attorney who had ignored contradictory evidence and instead relied on the stripper?s ?faulty and unreliable? accusations. ?We believe that these cases were the result of a tragic rush to accuse and a failure to verify serious allegations,? Mr. Cooper said at a news conference. ?We have no credible evidence that an attack occurred,? he added. Mr. Cooper said he had considered but ultimately rejected the possibility of bringing criminal charges against the accuser, who continues to insist she was attacked at a team party on March 13, 2006, and asked him to go forward with the case. Mr. Cooper said his investigators had told him that the woman ?may actually believe the many different stories that she has been telling.? He said his decision not to charge her with making false accusations was also based on a review of sealed court files, which include records of the woman?s mental health history. </div> Source: NY Times Kind of late, but this is pretty big news too. These dudes were basically crucified from the start, before the trial even began. I hope they sue that douchebag D.A.
I hope they sue as well - targeted because they're rich, white, and smart. It's reverse racism at it's clearest.
