Duke University will be sued by 38 members of the 2006 men's lacrosse team who claim they suffered emotional distress when school officials failed to support them during a rape investigation, a spokesman for the players said.
The lawsuit, to be filed today in U.S. District Court in North Carolina, also will name Duke President Richard Brodhead, Duke's medical center, and the city of Durham, North Carolina, according to a statement posted on a Web site run by players' spokesman Bob Bork. University officials remained silent during the rape probe, even though they had evidence that the players were innocent, according to the statement.
``These young men want acknowledgment that they were wronged by institutions and individuals that they trusted to treat them honestly,'' attorney Chuck Cooper said in the statement. ``They were victimized by a corrupt investigation that ignored or suppressed evidence that would have cleared them. And, all for a crime that never took place.''

Good for them and they should publish the names of those #$@@%% professors who came out against them from the start.

Excellent! Thanks for bringing me this good news. Of course the MSM isn't trying to publicize this.
These evil idiots deserve to be dragged through the justice system, they deserve every bit of it. They are the true racists and haters. They're professors so they'll probably get off lightly. They, along with that pig DA Nifong are human garbage.
They are most representative of what's wrong with this country and the world.
