A Laughable Double Standard
The Duke University-Rape Case Nobody Knows About
Oliver Sykes
GUEST COLUMNIST
When the Duke University-lacrosse-rape story broke in the spring
of 2006, it sparked massive media coverage nationwide for more
than two years and endless liberal posturing about white
privilege vs. a disadvantaged black woman three Duke lacrosse
players were charged with raping and kidnapping a black
stripper. It all turned out to be a lie, as we now know, and the
politically correct house of cards collapsed. The liberal media
quickly moved on with few regrets about a rush to judgment.
Now there is another Duke University-rape story with a strong
evidence trail of e-mails, photos, and videos, as well as
investigative work by the FBI, an Internet Crimes Against
Children task force, the State Bureau of Investigation, and
police forces in Washington, D.C. and in Durham, N.C. But this
time, the liberal media arent saying much.
Thats because this case involves a homosexual Duke University
official who does AIDS research; who lives with his partner in a
sexually liberated and eco-friendly housing community; who
adopted two black boys; who allegedly drugged and sodomized one
of the boys; who allegedly broadcast the sodomy online; and who
reportedly offered the 5-year-old boy up to other gay abusers on
the Internet.
This is not a politically correct storyline: Gay White Duke
Official Rapes Adopted Black Boy. It doesnt fit the liberal
worldview. Angry White Male Rapes Black Girl does but thats
not the story here. Thus the meager media coverage. Lets look
at whats known so far.
Frank Lombard, 42, is the associate director of the Center for
Health Policy at Duke University where he does a lot of patients-
with-HIV/AIDS research and brings in grant money: for example,
$4 million in 2007. He also teaches undergraduate courses, as
listed for 2009, including Introduction to the United States
Health Care System and Health Policy Analysis.
Lombard lives at the Eno Commons with his partner Ken Shipp, a
pharmacist who also works at Duke doing HIV/AIDS research. Eno
Commons is a cohousing neighborhood in Durham, which was
developed by lesbian activist Sherri Zann Rosenthal, also the
assistant city attorney for Durham.
Enos Commons describes itself as embracing diversity and
welcoming to residents of all ages, races, religious beliefs,
and affectional preferences. It says it is open to lesbian,
gay, bisexual and/or transgender members and has no restrictions
on romantic relations between consenting adults. It also
describes itself as a Paradise for Children who learn what
they live.
The FBI, the police, and U.S. attorneys first learned about
Lombard through a confidential source, as explained in a sworn
statement by Detective Timothy Palchak, who works for the D.C.
Metropolitan Police Department, assigned to the Northern
Virginia Regional Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
The confidential source, or CS, was facing child pornography
charges and decided to cooperate with investigators about other
people involved in the sexual abuse and molestation of
children.
CS stated that he used the Internet-based video chat program
ICUii (I See You Too) to talk with a person with the user name
cooper2 and cooperse. According to Palchaks statement, the
following was determined:
- Officials with ICUii, under subpoena, provided information
that the ICUii account of cooper2 belongs to Frank Lombard.
ICUii listed Frank Lombards email address and his telephone
number, and also indicated that Frank Lombards profile
description stated he was interested in perv fam fun, a
reference to incestuous child molestation.
- ICUii also disclosed to the FBI that a customer had
complained back in January 2007 that, in chatting with Lombard
on ICUii, Lombard told the complainant that he was into
incest and that he had adopted two African-American children.
- The complainant also explained that Frank Lombard described
himself, in his profile, as being a perv dad for fun.
- CS said he met cooper2 about four years ago through ICUii
and they corresponded every few weeks, and CS had seen cooper2
over webcam as many as one hundred times.
- CS witnessed cooper2 perform oral sex on an African-American
child who appeared to be under the age of ten, and [too graphic
to print], all of which activity was displayed to CS using the
individuals webcam.
- Cooper 2 also, according to CS, advised that he lived in the
Raleigh/Durham area of North Carolina; that the child was an
adopted child, one of two adopted African-American children;
that he had a live-in gay male partner who did not participate
in the sexual abuse; and that he had allowed other individuals
to sexually molest the child.
As the statement continues, Palchak says that he engaged in an
undercover operation using the online chat program Yahoo!
Instant Messenger and chatted with a person using the display
name F L. Sections of Palchaks statement read:
- FL used the photo share feature of Yahoo! Instant Messenger
and sent to the detective nude photos of himself, which
pictures match the North Carolina drivers license photograph of
Frank Mccorkle Lombard.
- User with the display name F L stated that he had sexually
molested his adopted, male, African-American child who he had
adopted as an infant and is currently five-years old.
- He advised Your affiant [Palchak] in particular that the
child had performed oral sex on him, he had fingered the
child, and that he had [too graphic to print].
- He also advised that he has met other pedophiles on the
program ICUii at times when he was willing to display his
adopted child on that program.
- He further stated that the abuse of the child was easier
when the child was too young to talk or know what was happening,
but that he had drugged the child with Benadryl during the
molestation.
- F L invited your affiant to fly to Durham this week in
order to have sexual contact with his 5-year-old adopted child.
F L stated to Your affiant that there would be no limits on
the sexual activity he could engage in with his 5-year-old
adopted child.
- During this conversation, F L was fully visible over the
webcam, including his face. F L is identical to the North
Carolina drivers license photograph of Frank Mccorkle Lombard.
Lombard was arrested on June 24. He is charged with offering up
his 5-year-old adopted son for sex to other people (U.S. Code
Section 2422(a). The maximum penalty for such a crime is 20
years imprisonment.
One would think that the arrest of a prominent Duke University
official for such a heinous crime would spark a lot of major
media coverage. After all, this is the same Duke University that
the media (and Dukes liberal faculty members) went batty over
with the lacrosse-rape story a story based on one womans
unsubstantiated allegation, which quickly fell apart.
But that story was so politically correct three young white
men allegedly rape a poor, young black woman in the South the
maniacal liberal media would not let it go. It fit all their
stereotypes and their political agenda.
The gay and eco-friendly Frank Lombard who adopts black boys and
then allegedly sodomizes one of them on Web-cam does not fit the
liberal medias stereotypes or their agenda.
Lets look at the numbers. In the 15 days following Lombards
arrest, a search of the Nexis news service database (search term
Frank Lombard and Duke University) shows that 19 news
stories were published. Most of that coverage was in small,
local newspapers and was cursory.
In the 15 days that followed the arrest of two Duke lacrosse
players, on April 18, 2006, there were 1,056 news stories.
(Nexis search for Duke University and lacrosse and rape.)
(The third lacrosse player was not arrested until May 15.)
And in the few weeks prior to those arrests, following the
womans Mar. 14, 2006, claim that she was raped, there were an
additional 1,367 stories. All of that included extensive
coverage on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News Channel,
National Public Radio, NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, and all the
major newspapers and magazines. The coverage was wall-to-wall.
Yet a fairly prominent gay Duke University official is nabbed in
an FBI child-sex sting and there are 19 news stories. Two Duke
lacrosse players get arrested for supposedly raping a stripper
and there are more than 2,400 stories. Theres something wrong
with this picture.
Does anyone doubt that if a prominent straight man at Duke
University had adopted a young black girl and then sexually
abused her and broadcast the abuse over the Internet, it would
not be big news?
The coverage would again be wall-to-wall.
But heres the reality. The liberal media support homosexuality.
Stories that in any way undermine the medias rosy picture of
homosexuality are usually not given wide coverage.
Lombard lives in a sexually progressive commune with his gay
partner. A story that undermines the liberal image of the
committed gay couple in this case, two highly educated Duke
university employees living comfortably in suburbia is not to
be promoted.
Lombard adopted two black boys. A story that in any way taints
the liberal picture of gay adoption is not to be promoted, and
especially not promoted if the story has a race component (white
male father, black sons).
Lombard allegedly drugged one of his sons and then sexually
abused him on more than one occasion, and allegedly allowed
others to abuse the boy. A gay man drugging and sodomizing his
own son does not help advance the gay agenda, so it gets little
coverage.
At the same time, the story is so morally revolting it can only
taint anyone or anything associated with it that includes Duke
University, Eno Commons, the city of Durham, the gay community
in general and the liberal media who rabidly covered the Duke
lacrosse scandal story.
Bottom line for liberal media: White males allegedly rape black
woman in the South equals politically correct story, lots of
coverage. Gay man adopts and then allegedly sodomizes his black
son equals politically incorrect story, very little coverage.
The good news in all this? The two children adopted by Lombard
are now with the North Carolina Department of Social Services.
Hopefully, they will get the counseling they need and, God
willing, a real mother and father to adopt them.

For all you assbags who thought voting for that racist jackoff
