Ok...for the readers of this forum can someone in the know give a summery of wtf is going on?
Quick summary:A black stripper accused some white members of the Duke LaCrosse team of raping her. The news came out as 'privileged white kids think they can rape black women and get away with it'. The DA in the state made several public statements to the effect that he was mad as hell and wasn't going to take it.
Lots of publicity - all the right liberals (including Jesse Jackson) making statements about evil whitey.
Turns out: The other stripper claimed form the start that it didn't happen, the accuser had a history of accusing men of assaulting her. The kicker though is that the DNA evidence showed several men had sex with the woman, but none of those men were members of the LaCrosse team - and the DA had that DNA evidence even as he made speeches about prosecuting the boys. And he made efforts to hide it from the defense.
We all await breathlessly Jesse Jackson's official apology. Any minute now, I'm sure.
