^^ They were no angels, that’s for sure, but partying and drinking and goofing off wasn’t what they were accused of. Duke lacrosse is in the elite groups, the best players in the country. But just like the best orchestra musicians, the best robotics team, the best science fair winners, they worked for that status. They were enjoying their college years and it was all gone overnight.

Also caught up in the situation were the kids of the coach (they stayed in NC for a while while their father moved to RI), the employees of the team, the assistant coaches and their families. Duke was the top of the mountain, and now they were begging for jobs at small programs. Pressler, the head coach, wrote a book about it: It’s Not About the Truth: The Untold Story of the Duke Lacrosse Case and the Lives It Shattered
