So who’s next? What’s next? And where?

In 2006 the nation was stood on its head prompted by a knee-jerk media working off a claim by a young, maladjusted woman with a story that reporters, columnists, TV essayists, The New York Times, politicians, black and social activists and racial fire alarm-pullers chose to believe, facts be damned.

And so Crystal Mangum, a young, self-employed black stripper accused three white Duke lacrosse players — all immediately condemned as “sons of white privilege” — were indicted and simultaneously sentenced to revulsion and expulsion, pariahs on their own campus.

Her original claim, according to police reports, was that she was raped by 20 Duke players, before reducing the number to three. Her co-stripper denied that there was a single rape.
