The woman who falsely accused three Duke University lacrosse players of raping her is coming out with a memoir in early October, according to a news release on Thursday.

"'The Last Dance for Grace: The Crystal Mangum Story' is the only definitive account of the life and struggles of the woman at the center of the Duke Lacrosse case, the alleged accuser," says a release from Fire! Products Inc., the film studio that is representing her.

Hope she gets sued for every penny of her profits, she doesn't deserve to make money out of her shameful behaviour.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I don't see how anyone would think this would make a good book.  Who's the publisher?  BET?

Probably lots of large print and filler space between line breaks.

I can't read ebonics. Oh well, I don't suppose I'll miss much.

The only reason they haven't civil sued her already is because she has no assets.  With the book deal they should get all the profits. 


Stupid women falsely claiming rape are a detriment to all women that are raped.

I highly agree with that!  I know women that were raped and someone to falsely accuse rape is horrible.  Falsely accusing rape, well I don't know if I could forgive someone for that, even if the girl was my friend.

People who are falsely accused of rape are screwed for life. It ruins them forever. I feel for anyone who gets falsely accused of rape. That really pisses me off when it happens.

I agree.  And in this life of the 24 hr news cycle those Duke guys, their names were all over the news.  I somewhat feel in a sexual battery (or even a student accusing a teacher) the name of the accused should remain nameless as well. I've read about teachers accused of impropriety when they actually did nothing wrong, but their name has been all in the media.

She writes a book, and the world yawns.  This one won't even make it to press, folks.
