DA To Press Duke Rape Case Despite DNA Results

HeadlineApr 11, 2006

This update on the Duke rape case–attorneys for the accused Lacrosse team members say DNA testing has failed to link their clients to the alleged rape of a dancer. According to the attorneys, none of their clients’ DNA was found on the woman or any of her possessions. They said the results prove the case should be dismissed. District Attorney Michael Nifong responded: “I believe a sexual assault took place. I’m not saying it’s over. If that’s what they expect, they will be sadly disappointed.”
