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. 650 0 $a Rape $z Durham. $z Durham. 650 0 $a Malicious accusation $z Durham. $z Durham. 650 0 $a Rape $x Investigation $z Durham. $z Durham. 650 0 $a Trials (Rape) $z Durham. $z Durham. 650 0 $a Lacrosse players $z Durham. $z Durham. 650 0 $a Prosecution $x Corrupt practices $z Durham. $z Durham. 600 10 $a Seligmann, Reade. 600 10 $a Finnerty, Collin. 600 10 $a Evans, David Forker, $d 1983- 600 10 $a Nifong, Michael Byron. 700 1 $a Johnson, Robert David, $d 1967- 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0730/2007020856-b.html 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0743/2007020856-s.html 856 41 $3 Table of contents only $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0718/2007020856.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0740/2007020856-d.html 941 $a 14 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230704012236.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722020441.0 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926091232.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20190814024021.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006042244.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171230020217.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418061616.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20151001015102.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l N3AX771 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l N5UX522 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UDAX314 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FA02FFA22B0F11DEAA7E7608A8D7520A 994 $a 03 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
