A Durham woman, known for falsely accusing three Duke University lacrosse players of rape in 2006, was arrested on assault charges Sunday, WRAL-TV reports.Speaking of Nifong, it must suck to be him. Same for the Group of 88, except they're all still gainfully employed.
Durham County jail officials said that Crystal Mangum was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury. She is being held without bond.
Details of what led to her arrest were not immediately available.
Mangum was arrested in February 2010 on a charge of attempted first-degree murder, five counts of arson, assault and battery, communicating threats, three counts of misdemeanor child abuse, injury to personal property, identity theft and resisting a public officer.
In that case, Durham police said she assaulted her boyfriend, Milton Walker, but Mangum has claimed that the pair had an argument and that he hit her, prompting one of her three children to call 911.
While a student at North Carolina Central University in March 2006, Mangum worked as a stripper and performed at a party hosted by members of the Duke lacrosse team. She claimed three white players trapped her inside a bathroom at 610 N. Buchanan Blvd. and raped and sexually assaulted her.
Mike Nifong, Durham County's district attorney at the time, had the three players indicted on rape and other charges on the basis of Mangum's allegations, but the case later began to crumble with her wavering in key details of her story.

It sickens me that Joe Alieva is that AD at LSU (he was AD at Duke). He is pond scum.
He made his choice. He chose to bet it all on some drugged up skank and he got what he deserved. Hopefully now the skank will get what she deserves.
Wasn't Jessie Jackson paying for her college? Has he ever followed up with this woman or thrown her to the side now that she is no longer a tool for him to use?
I know...stupid question.
