UPDATE: Duke Univ. and Durham Legal Woes

Those who thought that the Duke lacrosse rape hoax scandal was over when the state Attorney-General declared the 3 falsely accused students innocent are discovering just how thoroughly the scandal reached into the halls of power in Durham County and Duke University.

Duke and Durham continue to be up to their necks in legal woes resulting from the inexcusable manner in which the case was handled.

If you ever want the perfect case study for the miscarriage of justice, look at Durham and Duke.

If you ever want an example of how a university system and a entire county's law enforcement and justice system were complicit in the railroading of innocent citizens by a corrupt District Attorney, look at Durham and Duke.

If you ever need a perfect example of a university and a city/county held in the grip of corrupt officials and politicians, look at Durham and Duke.

If you ever need evidence that the top universities in the country are held in the grip of Leftwing demagogues, look at Durham and Duke.

And to this very day, as far as I know, neither Durham nor Duke have done very much to clean up their act.

Democrats in Durham: Felony Satanic Sex Crimes

The investigation into the Duke University Lacrosse Rape Scandal/Hoax revealed multi-level corruption in Durham, North Carolina politics, from the District Attorney's office to Duke University, from the Durham Police Department to the Durham County Democratic Party, and beyond.

Mike Nifong, the Durham District Attorney who essentially destroyed the lives and reputations of three innocent Duke students in order to win an election, was shown by the N.C. Bar Association to be one of the most corrupt public officials in the nation.

But he had plenty of help from those complicit in his scheme.

Duke University, the Durham police, and the local Democratic Party were all willing, unindicted co-conspirators in Nifong's false use of the race card to win the support of Durham voters, the majority of whom are either African-American or Caucasian liberal Democrats who work in the halls of academia.

Their rush to proclaim the three innocent lacrosse players guilty even before any of them had been charged with a crime only highlighted the lynch-mob mentality of a town seething with racism and corruption.

And now the news comes that a top Democratic Party official in the Durham County Democratic Party has been charged and arrested for engaging in Satanic sex rituals.

Joy Johnson, age 30, vice-chair of Young Democrats and 3rd vice-chair of the Durham County Democratic Party, has been charged with two counts of aiding and abetting.

Johnson's husband, Joseph Scott Craig, age 25, was charged with second-degree rape, second-degree kidnapping, and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon.

Law enforcement officials allege that the couple lured people into their home where they engaged in Satanic rituals of a sexual nature, locked them in cages, chained them to beds, and deprived them of food and water.

Further, it is alleged that Craig sexually assaulted women with a cane and then raped them.

WRAL-TV in Raleigh is reporting that Craig's bond has been set at 1 million dollars while Johnson's is at $368,000. The two are being held in the Durham County Detention Center.

More information can be found on this story HERE and HERE.

It goes without saying that the two are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

However, the emerging scenario is simply more fodder for those who are convinced that the Durham Democratic Party and their cohorts in the Durham D.A.'s office, the Durham Police Department, and Duke University are oozing with cankered corruption that would gag a maggot.

More Shame in Durham--Circling the Wagons

Durham, NC (TLS). And the shame of Durham continues as the co-conspirators in the Nifong-Mangum Hoax circle the wagons, denying any culpability, not even as much as acknowledging mistakes in the entire fiasco.

The Durham Police Department had ample opportunity to cleanse itself in its own internal investigation into the affair, only to return with a statement of denials and the insistence that it had done absolutely nothing wrong.

Can't you just see the halos?

The Department's failure to confess and repent, and thus salvage what little integrity may remain within its dens of corruption, has led to calls for totally independent examinations and a much more candid assessment of what went wrong. The Liberty Sphere believes that such an independent investigation is long overdue.

Our concern, however, runs much deeper than just with the Durham Police Department, for we are convinced that Durham is but a microcosm of a much broader culture of corruption that exists in North Carolina state government. We have sounded the alarm many times about such corruption, for example, within the North Carolina Department of Social Services and its heavy-handed, gestapo-like tactics with innocent citizens.

We will leave that matter to our ongoing investigations into DSS. For now, the focus is on Durham. Perhaps if a concerted effort is made to clean up the police department, city government, the judiciary, and the local Democratic Party, then this would be one gigantic first step toward further reform in other areas.

We can only hope.

Liestoppers has a detailed examination of the nature of the corruption within the Durham Police Department with regard to the Nifong-Mangum Hoax. In spite of a scathing assessment from the North Carolina Attorney-General and others who have observed this scandal from afar, the local co-conspirators are indeed circling the wagons, fabricating stories, and outright lying to the public concerning their conduct in the affair.

Thus, the shame of Durham only deepens.
