In North Carolina, a third member of the Duke University lacrosse team has been indicted on rape charges. The team’s co-captain, David Evans, is accused of first-degree forcible rape, sexual offense and kidnapping. In March a black female student from North Carolina Central University accused three white members of the Duke lacrosse team of rape. The woman was hired as a dancer for a lacrosse team party held in a house rented from Duke University. There she says she was beaten, raped and choked by three white lacrosse team members who also called her racial epithets. All three players have said they are innocent of the charges.
