I am not a face reader. Believe me, I have made my share of mistakes when it comes to reading people, some of them very gross....mistakes not people.
In an unprecedented move, the Duke University Lacrosse captain who was indicted today gave a stirring speech to the media, proclaiming his innocence. While, it wasn't quite poignant, it did have an air of innocence to it. I don't know if twenty three year old sportsmen can give that amazing a performance if indeed the whole thing was staged but his actions do speak louder than his words. His complete cooperation with the Durham PD from day one, his voluntary polygraph test, the DNA tests which failed to prove his involvement - all point to one of two things - either the rape did not happen OR the police simply got the wrong guys.
Three lives (four including the unidentified victim, if she is indeed a victim) are going to be invariably altered over the course of this trial. Whether this was justified or not, only time will tell.
