Eighteen years ago, stripper Crystal Mangnum was hired to perform at a party organized by the Duke lacrosse team. She went on to accuse three of the players of raping her. What followed was a media circus of a trial that ended with then-Attorney General Roy Cooper dropping all charges and prosecutor Mike Nifong being disbarred.
Two days ago, Magnum said she made it all up.
What a peach.
And she'll face zero consequences for it.
At the time, when the media was out for scalps and Nifong seeking to boost his political clout with this prosecution, there weren't many allies for the Duke lacrosse players. The narrative was set: they were guilty because they were three privileged men and Mangnum was their victim.
But a familiar face went on Nancy Grace to defend the lacrosse players. Trump's incoming Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.
WATCH:
18 years ago, only one Duke student went on mainstream media to defend the Duke lacrosse players

He's been a big player in Trump administration.
You can tell a lot about how a person reacts when the heat is on

Stephen Miller passes that test every time
Nancy Grace was so incredulous at the thought the allegations were false.
We'd love to hear her comments now.
Whenever someone asks me "what celebrity would you most like to fight?" I say Nancy Grace

This makes us chuckle.
One of the accusers is now in jail for killing her boyfriend. https://t.co/GCId0FeSdQ

Oh, lovely.
Disgusting how Nancy Grace tried to blame words after the whole scheme starts to unwind.

Very disgusting.
Stephen Miller is an American GOAT. Dislike him at your own peril, my man has principles which none of you fake conservatives and libtards have https://t.co/O3iyusFZxA

We weren't going to point out the hair, but we have to point out the hair.
Wow, seriously wow. Watching Stephen Miller 18 years ago trounce the media for perpetuating the now totally debunked Duke allegations is truly impressive for someone so young. I’m glad he’s on our side! https://t.co/T8JvoEQ9Xf

Everyone who bought Mangnum's story should apologize.
