The three male Duke Lacrosse players, accused of sexual assault, have been vindicated – if that’s possible. The charges were dropped today. Now they can get back to normal - yeah, right! It took long enough: over a year. What took the North Carolina Attorney General so long? I could have done it in a week. What is wrong with our system? (That was a rhetorical question. I already know what’s wrong with it.)
The first clue should have been when it was revealed that the line-up was rigged. There was no one in it except Duke Lacrosse members. Duh! What kind of protocol is that? (Rhetorical again.)
CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said earlier in the day that the players should just move on and not sue. I say, sue ‘em (whoever ‘em is) and make that local district attorney Mike Nifong pay for his unjust ways. The only way people change is by holding them accountable for their deeds.
