The Duke lacrosse case is known around to the country as a dark time for lacrosse. Players from one of the best teams in the nation were accused of raping a stripper. The facts of this story are crazy and the city of Durham rushed too quick into the case. The city had some sort of grudge against this team and decided to try and bring the heaviest punishment they could. In the end this backfired. A US judge is now letting the players file a civil rights violations case.The judge said about the police "singled out as especially serious the players' charge that authorities may have rigged or fabricated evidence to support stripper Crystal Mangum's false report that she'd been raped at a team party." This gave people a bad view of lacrosse and these players do deserve something.
