Investigators are still collecting evidence, but Nifong has said in recent days he already believes a crime occurred. Even if the state crime lab’s DNA analysis proves inconclusive or doesn’t provide a match for any of the athletes, Nifong has said he’ll have other evidence.
“If the only thing that we ever have in this case is DNA, then we wouldn’t have a case,” Nifong said Wednesday.

So you combine THAT with this
Quote:
According to the application for a court order seeking DNA samples from the team, a nurse trained to treat rape victims and a physician who treated the woman said they witnessed symptoms consistent with sexual assault. The document also includes details of a search of the house where the woman said she was raped for about a half-hour.
“The victim’s four red polished fingernails were recovered inside the residence consistent to her version of the attack. She claimed she was clawing at one of the suspect’s arms in an attempt to breath (sic) while being strangled. During that time the nails broke off,” the police statement said.
Officers who searched the house also recovered the woman’s makeup bag, cell phone and a stack of $20 bills consistent with the woman’s statement that $400 in cash was taken from her purse after the attack, the police statement said.
Police have also searched a second home occupied by lacrosse team members, but documents describing the location or what investigators found have been sealed by court order, prosecutors and police said.

And combine THAT with that fact these aren't some innocent little school boys here:

Duke lacrosse players in trouble before
20 crimes in past year include underage drinking, public urination, noise
The March 13 off-campus party at which a woman was allegedly beaten and raped wasn't the first legal run-in for members of the Duke University men's lacrosse team, WNCN-TV reported Thursday.
WNCN-TV has uncovered court documents showing 15 members of the lacrosse team have been charged with at least 20 crimes in the past year. The charges include underage drinking, public urination, excessive noise and one instance in which a Duke student's debit card was stolen and used to purchase $100 in food.

Combine that with whatever other evidence the DA has that he's not releasing and I think we are FAR from case over here.
So as I said, we shall see how it goes, I wouldnt be dancing a jig just yet if I were you guys. Slow down, and lets see what happens. |
It's amazing to me how certain people use DNA to get people OUT of jail and say they were wrongly accused and senteced....but not in this case. Because after all, these were white boys and these white boys HAVE to be guilty, right? There's no DNA anywhere......not inside the woman, not on her clothing, not under her fingernails, not ANYWHERE......and yet YOU and this PROSECUTOR insist they are GUILTY?
Whatever happened to "innocent until proven guilty?"
How would you like it, keylolo, if this were YOUR son being accused like this? And the DNA came back that exonnerated him....but yet, people were STILL saying he was guilty? How?
