Crystal Gail Mangum, former Duke lacrosse accuser, arrested for allegedly stabbing boyfriend

[The Northerner]

Crystal Mangum, the woman who famously claimed she was raped by a group of Duke lacrosse players in 2006, has now been accused of stabbing her boyfriend.

The 32-year-old was arrested on Sunday morning after reportedly seriously injuring her 46-year-old lover, and was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury.

It's the latest in a long run of legal troubles for the North Carolina resident who was once at the center of one of college sport's biggest scandals.

In 2006, Mangum claimed three Duke Lacrosse players sexually assaulted her at a party for the team where she was working as a stripper.

2. Oh, come on. The dude probably stabbed himself and called the cops.

Good ol' Crystal Gail...

from link:

"Since then, Mangum has been convicted of a series of misdemeanors, including charges of child abuse and resisting arrest in December.

Those charges stemmed from a February 2010 incident involving a different boyfriend, in which she was charged with slashing the tires of his car, smashing his windshield and setting a pile of his clothes on fire in his apartment while her children were in the home. The police were also present, having already arrived on the scene.

Mangum's latest legal battle began on Sunday morning, when officers responded to reports of a stabbing and found a man with knife wounds his torso, according to the Raleigh News-Observer.

Police have not yet released the name of the victim, but said the stabbing occurred during an argument between the two."


The poor chick just cannot catch a break.
