Prosecutors dropped a rape investigation against Chicago Blackhawks star Patrick Kane on Thursday, citing a lack of credible evidence in a case ''rife with reasonable doubt'' and said the accuser no longer wanted to cooperate. Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita said a three-month investigation found that physical and forensic evidence ''tend to contradict'' the accuser's claim that she was raped last Aug. 2 at Kane's offseason home outside Buffalo. ''I have repeatedly said that I did nothing wrong,'' Kane said in a statement issued by the Blackhawks.
