The Railroad Continues

Check this one out, from ABC News:

As she drove the accuser from the March 2006 Duke lacrosse party, Roberts told ABC News the woman was clearly impaired and “talking crazy.”

Roberts said she tried several different times to get the accuser out of her car.

“The trip in that car from the house … went from happy to crazy,” Roberts told Cuomo. “I tried all different ways to get through to her.”

“I tried to be funny and nice,” she said. “Then I tried to, you know, be stern with her. … We’re kind of circling around, and as we’re doing that, my last-ditch attempt to get her out of the car, I start to kind of, you know, push and prod her, you know.”

Roberts said she told the woman, “Get out of my car. Get out of my car.”

“I … push on her leg. I kind of push on her arm,” Roberts said. “And clear as a bell, it’s the only thing I heard clear as a bell out of her was, she said — she pretty much had her head down, but she said plain as day — ‘Go ahead, put marks on me. That’s what I want. Go ahead.’”

Roberts said the comments “chilled me to the bone, and I decided right then and there to go to the authorities.”

She contacted authorities. Odd that even after those kind of accusations, Nifong still never saw fit to speak to the alleged victim. Why is it that the more evidence comes out, the less credible the “victim” seems to be? And why is everyone trying so damned hard not to say it? Kudos to ABC and CBS for actually doing what the Prosecutor isn’t doing.

Investigating.
