blog post by John Hoff
In two previous blog posts, I wrote about Rick Clark Briggs.
Briggs was charged with rape by the Hennepin County Attorney. And then the charges were abruptly dropped. This blogger dutifully reported the surprising--even shocking--"about face" by the County Attorney's office. This rarely if ever happens. I can't think of a single other example, at least not when it comes to stories I have reported.
Now, incredibly, a conversation is taking place in the comments of this blog between a commenter purporting to be the alleged victim, and another commenter purporting to be Rick Clark Briggs. Some others have jumped in, too, but there appear to be two main "voices" having this conversation.
It is an interesting and amazing discussion. If you'd like to read it, click here.
