Comments on: Duke Rape Suspects Speak Out

60 Minutes' Ed Bradley Talks To The Accused Lacrosse Players, Who Have Never Before Been Interviewed

[sunkist01]

Sunkist-

I can see that--in addition to being completely brain-dead--you have also donated your sense of humor to science. I guess if you have no supporting evidence for an opinion you're holding, the last line of defense is to simply go on an ad hominem rant. Have fun with that.

I must have hit a nerve of the truth, because it has been only you who have name called everyone else and now you are whining because I must have struck the real deal with you.

Okay, I sorry you are a very im-po-tent man, who was unjustly accused. I mean how could you really anyway?

[riskfree69]

She's a lying *** looking to make a buck.

And the DA is the pimp who's willing to give it to her.

[truth28-2009]

In your world, no one did anything. Are you getting paid off to spread these falsehoods? Does one of the fathers have some secret of yours that they're hiding? Go to a strip bar, have a beer, and calm down.

[sunkist01]

Sunkist-

McFayden has never been charged. The story was about the three that were. Seriously, you guys need some mental evaluation. What would Bradley have asked? I can see it now, "Why did your teammate write a disgusting, despicable e-mail?" Answer, "I don't know." What would have been the point?

I believe you are the one in need of theraphy obvious you have a complex about your "manhood", that fact is whether he was charged or not, he knew about and its intend that is the point.

Ed Bradley, should have asked them their knowledge of the email, how come your team mate wanted another party and why is he planning to murder females and you feel there no need to say or do anything? Is that what you all are doing now covering for each other?

Especially since you stand indictment for a act of hatred and violence which is rape.

Personally you have been whining all day about your own inabilities and I doubt if anyone would accuse you of rape, perhaps assault with a dead weapon of course!

[sayfud-deen]

does this story really surprise anyone? people get railroaded to prison everyday in the u.s.. it has been happening to minorities for some time now. but these days everyone is fair game. i don't know if these guys did or not. I'd have to really know all of the facts. but think of this,we have the largest prison population in the free world and it is about to get a lot bigger. if all of you enlightened citizens don't believe it,just read the military commissions act of 2006 that was passed by the house and senate last week. then be afraid be very afraid!

CBS/AP) A lacrosse player's e-mail rant about killing strippers and cutting their skin off in his Duke University dorm room has started a chain reaction resulting in his coach's resignation, the season's cancellation and an internal probe into the university's response to alleged violence by athletes.





On Wednesday, authorities unsealed documents from a search warrant for McFadyen's residence, stating that less than two hours after the alleged rape, McFadyen sent an e-mail saying he was planning an encore to "tonights (sic) show." The message, addressed "To whom it may concern," said, "however there will be no nudity."

"I plan on killing the *** as soon as the(y) walk in and proceeding to cut their skin off," wrote McFadyen, a 6-foot-6, 225-pound Atlantic Coast Conference honor roll player who was one of five Duke players from the exclusive Delbarton School in Morristown, N.J., adding in vulgar terms that he would find the act sexually satisfying. The e-mail was signed with McFadyen's jersey number, 41.


I wonder why Ed Bradley failed to mention the email that CBS reported on last year.

[truth28-2009]

Yeah, fess up, or go to jail, simple as that. If you didn't do it, point out which of the lacrosse players actually did it, and you won't become someone's girlfriend in jail. Easy as pie.

[tuths]

When your raped it's something you will never forget, including details. It stays with you forever. Years will go by and you will still remember every details.

[sunkist01]

Funny how this convicted criminal "stripper" has so much creditability over the other stripper now, although they did not know each other before that day.

Who to say she is not being paid to testify against the other stripper?

Please, I did not know convicted criminals could testify in court. And she still facing legal issues, yea what a character witness of the truth!

[truth28-2009]

Blah, blah, blah.....these 3 idiots need to either suffer the consequences for this crime, or fess up on who did it. The poor stripper was clearly assaulted. Not just dismiss it by saying "I'm an innocent choir boy...I didn't deserve this...I'm gonna tell my mommy and daddy to get the most expensive lawyers out there to defend me....I was not even there, I was at the ATM and I thought the party was lame, blah, blah......"

The question no one asks is, why are major universities handing out free rides for kids simply because they're good at an obscure, elitist sport that has little interest outside of its own little sphere? Our priorities are a joke in this country. Perhaps if they were forced to live like normal students instead of being handed a life of privilige, they wouldn't have had the time or resources to worry about hiring strippers or hookers to entertain themselves.

[vacity]

truth, no one deservse to get charged for rape, if they did not do it. Now if your saying they are racist scum and diserve whatever for that, thats seeable, but kiven holds a point that the evidence does not seem to prove that they are rapist, and many people get convicted of rape who did not do it, and no one deserves that no matter how bad of a person they are.

[goldratfink]

As I watch the outstanding investigation report of 60 minutes on the fact of the Duke rape case it was quite obvious to this layman that the prosecutor had violated his ethical and legal responsibility to the public and to the accuse in this case. The point is that the prosecutor knows that he and his team can not win the case but it would appear that he has inflicted the damage to the defendants and has sent a message that he will manipulate the fact of the case with the help of the police. How many case has the prosecutor and the police violated investigative protocol in the pass 5 years? There needs to be a federal and state investigation in to the Duke rape case, to include prosecutor, and police. I have seen these type of tactic by law enforcement in third world country.

[truth28-2009]

kevinsbailey,

Thank god that your opinion that these buffoons are innocent holds no weight whatsoever. So, keep blowing the smoke up everyone's a@#$# here that they are innocent when they are not. Let's just hope that these 3 idiots get jail and become someone's girlfriend. Sure as heck collin finnerty deserves it due to his criminal history.

[sunkist01]

now this young woman being poor and not havin powerful family may suffer all her life unless people who have some power help her and give her a new life and chance-education, a start to a good respectable job, ect. Posted by snflwr4real at 04:15 PM : Oct 16, 2006

A respectable job? You know we would not have so many debatable cases of rape of women if people would not look at a person skin color or profession to determine how guilty or innocent their accused are. For I am sure there are more female whoring themselves for cars, computers, clothes, hair dos, than strippers. Many, Many females marry for money, I would call that turning tricks to, but because they might marry their trick or they do not walk the streets or strips in clubs they are some how of better moral character? Get real

[truth28-2009]

kevinsbailey,


"Your argument there would work, except that the woman specifically said they didn't wear condoms."

The woman was in and out of consciousness, so whether or not they used rubbers is up in the air. Given that, rape can be with an object other than a ***, as the stripper who was on 60 minutes said the players threatened to use a broomstick. There's no DNA evidence from a plastic broom handle.

"No one did anything. The woman is lying. Can't you get that through your thick skull? You not liking someone doesn't mean they are guilty of rape."

Oh really, so you were actually there and know that no one did anything. Maybe it was you instead. The woman is lying just like everyone else is lying who's sticking up for these 3 meat heads who are proclaiming their innocence and choir boy backgrounds.

"A "track record" would seem to need to entail more than one incident. And even if we concede that's a "track record", it has no bearing on this case whatsoever. Just because the kid is stupid and homophobic, doesn't mean he's a racist."

The kid was not just stupid and homophobic, but violent also. Rape is an act of violence. This would be the second stain on his track record, and I'm glad the prosecutor moved forward to convict him of assault.

[vacity]

In the kobe case, she was no victem, jimbo ur crazy, i gotta side with sunkist here, but the girl in NC doesnt seem to be a victem here either. It seems that kobe was the victem and in the NC case i think everyone in the area are victems, and the players are racist pigs, and the stripper is a lying, manipulative, *** looking for the big bucks

[sunkist01]

Would you have felt the same if it had been your daughter that had been raped by Kobe.

Now is that question just about Kobe or someone's daughter being raped?
