Posted on | July 12, 2010 | 19 Comments

Thanks to Bob Owens for this update on Crystal Mangum:

A Durham woman who falsely accused three Duke University athletes of rape four years ago will be in court Monday on a separate case in which she faces multiple charges, including attempted first-degree murder. . . .
Police said she assaulted her boyfriend, Milton Walker, set his clothes on fire in a bathtub and threatened to stab him.

University faculty to scream “raaaaacism” in 3, 2, 1 . . .

    This young lady has been a source of unending disappointment. First, she shocked the world into realizing that strippers sometime LIE, and now this.

    Our gentle, innocent view of the world will just never be the same.

    She seems like Sarah Palin, but more sympathetic.

    Shocker. Why is it that she was never charged with filing false police reports again?

    just a conservative girl @ #6: The municipality is Democrat-controlled with a heavy black population, for one thing. Local elected officials don’t want to make the blacks mad at them, but even more they don’t want to tick off the strippers.

    Also, I heard she went around with an Obama sticker on her rear bumper. She may also have had one on her car.

    Good question. And what’s Michael Nifong up to these days?
