Duke lax charges dropped by N.C. Attorney General
(U-WIRE) RALEIGH, N.C. - North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper proclaimed the innocence of the three indicted members of the Duke University men's lacrosse team and harshly criticized the behavior of Durham DA Mike Nifong Wednesday.
Facing a crowd of national and local media, Cooper announced the remaining charges against David Evans, Trinity '06, Collin Finnerty and Reade Seligmann are being dismissed.
"The result of our review and investigation shows clearly that there is insufficient evidence to proceed on any of the charges," Cooper said. "These cases are over, and no more criminal proceedings will occur."
Evans, Finnerty and Seligmann faced charges of sexual assault and kidnapping. Rape charges were dropped in January.
Cooper's announcement came more than one year after initial allegations against the players were brought forth.
