Comments Policy
(1) Comments are moderated, but with the lightest of touches, to exclude only off-topic comments or obviously racist or similar remarks.
(2) My clearing a comment implies neither that I agree nor that I disagree with the comment. My opinion is expressed in my words and my words only. Since this blog has more than 1500 posts, and since I at least occasionally comment myself, the blog provides more than enough material for readers to discern my opinions.
(3) If a reader finds an offensive comment, I urge the reader to e-mail me; if the comment is offensive, I will gladly delete it.
(4) Commenters who either misrepresent their identity or who engage in obvious troll behavior will not have their comments cleared. Troll-like behavior includes, but is not limited to: repeatedly linking to off-topic sites; repeatedly asking questions that already have been answered; offering unsubstantiated remarks whose sole purpose appears to be inflaming other commenters.
- "From the Scottsboro Boys to Clarence Gideon, some of the most memorable legal narratives have been tales of the wrongly accused. Now “Until Proven Innocent,” a new book about the false allegations of rape against three Duke lacrosse players, can join these galvanizing cautionary tales . . , Taylor and Johnson have made a gripping contribution to the literature of the wrongly accused. They remind us of the importance of constitutional checks on prosecutorial abuse. And they emphasize the lesson that Duke callously advised its own students to ignore: if you’re unjustly suspected of any crime, immediately call the best lawyer you can afford."--Jeffrey Rosen, New York Times Book Review

I saw the playoff game that he mentioned. He had three goals, and the Duke fans cheered each one. Other defendants and their families could learn a thing or two about how to conduct themselves during a public ordeal by paying attention to how the Finnerty family dealt with it.
THANK YOU, K.C. for posting this article about Colin. I am happy that he is doing well. When will the suits be heard?
Curious about how the article omits: 1) Crystal Mangum's name; 2) the egregious behavior of Duke University in this whole matter; and 3) the lawsuits in progress against Duke.

The hatred and head in the sand mentality are still with us. Just look at the second comment to the story by pseudonymous "George." Only hatred could make a person be so wrong and so nasty at the same time.
Collin Finnerty is doing really well. On the other hand, as of May 4, 2010, Crystal Mangum has been in jail for 76 days.
Collin Finnerty was awarded the John R. Moller
award for excellence in athletics, scholarship, and character at a recent Loyola awards banquet.
