How much of this thread did you read before posting your response?

The whole thing. You're the one who asked the question and I provided a non-speculative answer based on media reports. I didn't expect you to answer your own question even though it appears you did.

BTW - I don't buy the reverse-racism agrument as to why the black player wasn't tested. Why should the authorities waste time, resources and taxpayer money when she claimed her attackers were white.

As it stands now she cannot positively identify her alleged white attackers so the case sounds very weak. Or do all white people look alike?

Wait until the criminal defense attorneys have their field day with her in court.

As far as I am concerned the accused are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law not in the court of public opinion.

I asked a rhetorical question, I didn't expect anyone to take it literally.

The reverse racism charge would work against the 'victim', nobody else. She would have no credibility left for them to take any part of this farce of a case to court.

Let's put some things together that really make her lack any credibility:
-she's single mom
-she's a single mom and stripper
-shes's a single mom and stripper and student
-she was a "Navy person"

Still trying to figure out what that means exactly. A Navy person. My bet is that she was dishonerably discharged from the service.

And how many guys lives have been ruined privately and publicly because they were falsely accused of rape? More than any of us could fathem. What about the guys who have been rapped and were never given media time, or just flat out too scared to come forward.

I had a lady speak in my health class my last semester in college. She made it adamantly clear that guys ARE raped. She blamed a lot of the 'it's only a female thing' on the media. I could go on with a story she told of how this can happen physically and psychologically, but don't have the time right now.

Where the FUCK do you people get off ragging on single moms? How does that aspect blow her credibility??? I'm as pissed about this case as anyone, but this isn't the first post I've seen taking a dig at single moms. I was raised my WHOLE GODDAMN LIFE by my mom, who divorced my father when I was 6-months old. And she's done a pretty damn good job considering she's worked full-time as a magazine editor the whole time.

I dont think he was ragging on single moms. I took it as those first three are all together. Which in my mind isnt the ideal situation for a child to be brought up. As her being a single mom, stripper and student.

BINGO! I'm not bagging on any single moms. I know and have known plenty. But none of them stripped to make a living. Stripping at a club is one thing, but when you allow youself to be an escort more or less performing at homes or wherever that lowers you even more.

It was my fault for starting off the thread the way I did. But as D said, I was refering to the fact that she's a stripping single mom, let alone ANY mom for that matter. There are so many more ways to make money that having dollar bills tossed around.

Sorry man, didn't mean to offend you in the slightest. The MAJORITY of single moms out there do a phenomenal job at raising one, two, three or more kids and bring them up in loving home.

If i would have taken it that you were baggin on single moms i would have said about the same thing he/she did though. I know there are some single moms that do the best they can. I dont see stripping being the "best they can do". I was raised by a single mom and she did everything she could to make sure we got everything we needed(we being my sister and I)

Thanks for the clarification folks. Sorry that I reacted so harshly, but one thing I don't take well is (respectable) single mom bashing.

Don't worry about it man. If I were you or D's situation I'd get offended pretty easy myself. A girl I work with, that taught me what I know now, is a single mom, divorced, with 3 kids (twins are 6, & a 9 yr old I believe). Talk about hands full. The only thing she does on the side is bartends to make extra money. For instance she told me today she's taking the kids shopping tomorrow, so tonight she's working at the bar.

Glad I was able to clarify though.

Remember that credibility I was talking about? Three guys then, three guys now. What are the odds?

The D.A. claims it'll be inadmissible. This DA is only out for his own good, what a crook.

Asked Thursday if she was sexually assaulted, her father said, "I can't remember." In an interview with the Raleigh News and Observer posted Thursday night on the newspaper's Web site, he said the men his daughter accused in 1996 "didn't do anything to her."

You would think a man would remember if his daughter was raped by three men.....unless she never was
