somedaybitchmore exculpatory dna evidence revealed in the Duke [non]rape case
we get quite a few rape cases per year. i can remember maybe 5, in almost 20 years, that were false reports by victims. we investigate them vigorously and our da's prosecute them the same. i don't know one single cop in my department that doesn't consider the crime a personal affront, and on a par with child molestation. the damage that this woman has done to the legitimacy of future victims is tremendous, and she. Nifong and Meehan should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
After his disastrous performance at the December 15 hearing—when he admitted that he and Mike Nifong had entered into an agreement to intentionally withhold exculpatory DNA evidence—Dr. Brian Meehan filed an amended report, which purported to be the complete results of his findings. That report did little more than confirm what he admitted under oath in questioning from Brad Bannon: that DNA from multiple, unidentified, males was found in the accuser’s rape kit.
Defense attorneys have continued to scrutinize Meehan’s data, however, and today’s motion reveals that they have uncovered even more DNA—from additional unidentified males—that Meehan’s amended report failed to include.
