NAACP Urges Fair Probe of Duke Case

Now that the case has unraveled, leave it to the NAACP to come out for fairness. After three young men have been railroaded, they want fairness.

DURHAM, N.C. - The state chapter of the NAACP on Thursday called on those involved with the Duke lacrosse sexual assault case — from defense attorneys to state bar officials — to stop talking publicly while the state attorney general's office begins its review.

Now that we look bad, let's not discuss the matter any longer.

"Nobody knows the totality of the facts," Barber said. "We do not expect, nor should North Carolina citizens condone, a resolution of this case based on biased and political or public pressure from the public or any overzealous supporters on either side. What we must do is insist that we follow the facts wherever they lead and face the facts when they are all in."

They're not interested in the facts.
