Left silent on arrest of Duke athletes’ accuser

5:01 p.m., Wednesday, April 20, 2011


Only on the politically correct animal farms that are elite East Coast colleges could one woman's lie lead a university president and 88 faculty members in 2006 to convict in the media three innocent white young men prior to trial - and even prior to the complete collection of evidence ("Where are Crystal Mangum's liberal supporters now?" Web, Water Cooler, Friday).

Ms. Mangum's long series of contacts with the law and Child Protective Services in the intervening years ended Monday when she was indicted for the first-degree murder of her boyfriend, Reginald Daye. Ms. Mangum is accused of murdering Daye by stabbing him in the chest with a kitchen knife.

Perhaps when the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) comes up for reauthorization and Vice President Joseph R. Biden yet again calls it his proudest political achievement and asks Congress to appropriate further billions of taxpayer dollars to it, we should think of Crystal Mangum.

Glover Arrested On Drug Trafficking Charge; Released From Football Team

by Andy Moore on April 20, 2011 · 0 comments


Duke football player Tyree Glover, a sophomore, was arrested Tuesday on charges of trafficking cocaine and is being held in the Durham county jail on a $750,000 bond. He has been dismissed from the team.

According to Durham police records, Glover was charged with trafficking, possession with intent to manufacture, sell or deliver a schedule II substance, as well as possession with intent to manufacture, sell or deliver a schedule VI substance. Glover was also charged with maintaining a vehicle for sale of a controlled substance.

In a press release Wednesday, head coach David Cutcliffe announced that Glover had been dismissed from the football team. His status as a Duke student is still unknown.

Glover has played in a reserve role as a linebacker for the past two seasons, appearing in 23 games, including 11 games this season. He recorded 12 tackles this year, and played primarily on special teams.

UPDATE: Durham police officers arrested Glover on Gregson Street near Bright Leaf Square with 29.6 grams of powder cocaine, Chief John Dailey of the Duke University Police Department said in an interview Wednesday. Durham police officers then obtained a search warrant to search his dorm room, where they found 72.4 grams of marijuana. The case is being handled entirely by the Durham Police Department.

Art Chase, director of sports information, declined to comment.

Matthew Chase contributed reporting.

A Chicago police officer and former member of the department’s now disgraced Special Operations Section pleaded guilty today to a federal misdemeanor civil rights charge that stemmed from his false arrest of a suspect in 2004.

Eric Olsen, 38, pleaded guilty to falsely stating in a report that he saw the suspect drinking alcohol in front of a Chicago tavern and then conducted a search, finding cocaine in the suspect’s waistband, according to court documents.

Olsen’s sentencing was set for Aug. 23 in federal court. He faces up to a year in prison.
