TOOL & BAD BOYS



Short, Short Ebooks

Just when you think it can't get any sicker...

Smokinggun.com reveals the contents of a search warrant that reveals a sick email written by one of the team members shortly after the attack. I'm so sure some apologist/misogynist/racist fuck is going to turn this around and say that the sick fuck who wrote this email is being framed. ('Scuse my French/Spanish/Polish/Greek...but I'm pissed.)

Here is the pic of the sick mutha, Ryan McFayden. Below is the content of the email:

"To whom it may concern:

tommrow (sic) night, after tonights show, ive decided to have some strippers over to edens 2c. all are welcome.. however there will be no nudity. i plan on killing the bitches as soon as they walk in and proceeding to cut their skin off while cumming in my duke issue spandex.. all in besides arch and tack please respond 41"

41 is McFadyen's jersey number.

So, who wants to claim that this was just a sick joke, and an extreme case of "boys being boys?" This email almost points to premeditation in the attack on the stripper. These "boys" were jonesing for some violence. They also used phony names and told her they were baseball/track players.

And then there's the question I asked before: why did they specifically hire two black strippers? I earlier surmised that they weren't looking to get a freak-on, otherwise they would have hired strippers who would "turn them on." The only thing that turned them on about the victim was that here was a vulnerable black woman they could beat down and debase. I am certain that was the whole motivation for the black dancers being hired in the first place. Obviously the cretin above got a little too turned on, wanted some more action.

The News & Observer provides the attorney's pathetic attempt to spin this into a defense:

Joe Cheshire, a lawyer representing one of the team captains, said the e-mail helps support the team's story. Team members told police, according to Cheshire, that they hired women to dance and those women left the party early.

"This e-mail, while the wording of it is, at best, unfortunate, if you read this e-mail and you also are aware of other e-mails that exist contemporaneous with these events, it's quite clear that no rape happened in that house," Cheshire said. "These boys were frustrated because they, as is already been reported, they thought these women had come and taken a bunch of money and started dancing and just decided to leave."

Cheshire and other defense lawyers involved in the case have been critical of Nifong's public statements. He said the unsealing of the warrant today shows desperation on the part of investigators.

"If you see this case with things the police have not released, you see this case in a different light than the prosecutor going out there and saying, ‘they're guilty,'" Cheshire said. "Is it a horrible e-mail? Yes. Does it make the writer look good as a human being? Are there all kinds of moral and social issues that can be discussed about what went on that night? This e-mail does not in any way shape or form show that there was a violent sexual act that went on in that house. I would tell you that it in fact shows the opposite."

One bit of good news did happen today though: the Duke lacrosse coach resigned today.
