They are public figures only because of the actions of a corrupt District Attorney and his police, media and faculty enablers. North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper has declared them to be “innocent,” and they deserve to return to normal, private life as much as possible.

Extension School students, even if they are not currently enrolled, still have access to the libraries with a valid Harvard ID, according to spokeswoman Linda A. Cross. And the Lowell dining hall, one of Godelia’s favorite haunts, can be entered during the day without swiping an undergraduate ID card...
