If she was truly victimized, then let the justice system do its job. Watching it on the news will not make the trial come any faster than next year.

True....but watching it on the news can also get her paid off by deep pockets to have the charges dropped...Stripping is one thing, being raped is another who knows where the lines were crossed and who is telling the truth...DNA and a rape kit wont lie (I have been watching way too much Law & Order )...but if it turns out to be a hoax...then it wont mean shit cause that other lady who pretended to be abducted, and was found in Mexico I believe only got community service...the media dropped that story like it was yesterday news and it only came back cause the dumb schmuck of a fiancee was still willing to marry her when she was running away from Marriage to begin with....

It's only in the news cause it's Duke....

This case seems to be more defensive than offensive at this point because if the prosecution's wrong the police and the town are looking at huge lawsuits from the wealthy parents of these students...to be continuted.
