Summary
Crystal Mangum, who accused three Duke lacrosse players of rape in 2006, admitted for the first time on a podcast that her claims were fabricated.
She said she lied for validation and apologized to Reade Seligmann, Collin Finnerty, and David Evans, acknowledging they “didn’t deserve” the accusations.
The case, which drew national attention, collapsed after evidence disproved her story, leading to the disbarment of Durham DA Mike Nifong for misconduct.
Mangum is currently in prison for a 2011 murder conviction.
That’s fucking awful but also not a reason to ignore future victims of sexual assault.
Absolutely. It’s also a reason to wait for somone to be convicted before crucifying them in public.
I think I’m gonna keep badmouthing CEOs, thank you very much.
Well, the alived ones anyway.
It actually is a reason to be more sceptic and evidence focused. And she should be jailed for her perjury and crime.
You two are in agreement.
