Duke Lacrosse Players
-
Sources said one defendant was captured on video at a cash machine and the other has receipts from a restaurant during the relevant time period, several news outlets reported.
Evidence in the case has been murky from the start.
On the one hand, authorities have the word of the 27-year-old woman, a single mother who joined the Navy for opportunity and turned to stripping to support two kids after her marriage foundered.
She attends a predominantly black university in her working-class hometown, where the average income is less than the $40,000 in tuition and fees that Duke students shell out a year.
There is a hospital report that says her injuries were "consistent" with rape.
On the other hand, there are defense photos that show her smiling as she left the house, and the report of a cop who found her "passed out drunk" at a grocery store later.
DNA samples were taken from all of the white lacrosse players and none of their genetic material was found on the dancer, lawyers have said.
Instead, it appears Seligmann and Finnerty were arrested after being identified from photographs.

Both of those guys were bailed out after posting $400,000 bail! Wow! Who comes up with that much money that fast?
I think that we'll have to hear the WHOLE story and hear/see all the evidence to see what the outcome will be. There's way too much missing so far.

400k bail wouldn't be that hard to get. Parents just posted their houses as collateral to a bondsman. If they don't show, the bondsman takes possession of the houses or $400k if the families have that much in cash to give. Could be done in under 2 hours.
I think they are not guilty as well.

I hope I don't eat my words here but, I've been watching this on news channels for a few days now and I honestly believe that she wanted to party with a guy or two and she got more than she bargained for. She was too drunk to know much more than she got fucked real good. Too drunk in fact, to even be able to remember who she got it from and took her chances and id'd people that had nothing to do with it. I also have a feeling that there's more motive like $$$ here as well. Now don't flame me. It's just my take on this. I know I said before that it was hard to tell but I've since changed my mind.
