Covering all five aspects of the case (personal, legal, academic, political, and media), journalist Taylor and historian Johnson argue that law enforcement, a campaigning prosecutor, biased journalists, and left-leaning academics repeatedly refused to pursue the truth while scapegoats were made of these young men, recklessly tarnishing their lives. The story sheds new light on the dangers of rogue prosecutors and police and a cultural tendency toward media-fueled travesties of justice, and has broad political, racial, and cultural relevance to our times.--From publisher description. 000316016 60010 $$aSeligmann, Reade. 000316016 60010 $$aFinnerty, Collin. 000316016 60010 $$aEvans, David Forker,$$d1983- 000316016 60010 $$aNifong, Michael Byron. 000316016 650_0 $$aRape$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 650_0 $$aMalicious accusation$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 650_0 $$aRape$$xInvestigation$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 650_0 $$aTrials (Rape)$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 650_0 $$aLacrosse players$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 650_0 $$aProsecution$$xCorrupt practices$$zNorth Carolina$$zDurham. 000316016 7001_ $$aJohnson, K.
