Durham DA disbarred!

In case any of y'all are interested, the DA who screwed up the Duke Lacrosse rape case can't practice law in NC anymore!  ;D
Sweet justice if you ask me.

It was on the news this morning that the boys attorneys will seek criminal charges against Nifong.
Civil actions to follow also I'm quite sure.

You know that you've stepped into something bad when even the lawyers run from you.

He will face several civil law suits from the formerly accused players.  There is also a question about criminal charges against him because he lied in court.

My wife was an attorney, a DA and is now a judge.  She said that she saw this coming months ago with the DA trying to fabricate evidence and the "story".  Total loser.  His punishment should be a good beating with lacrosse sticks.

Ok...for the readers of this forum can someone in the know give a summery of wtf is going on?

Quick summary:


A black stripper accused some white members of the Duke LaCrosse team of raping her.  The news came out as 'privileged white kids think they can rape black women and get away with it'.  The DA in the state made several public statements to the effect that he was mad as hell and wasn't going to take it.

Lots of publicity - all the right liberals (including Jesse Jackson)  making statements about evil whitey.

Turns out:  The other stripper claimed form the start that it didn't happen, the accuser had a history of accusing men of assaulting her.  The kicker though is that the DNA evidence showed several men had sex with the woman, but none of those men were members of the LaCrosse team - and the DA had that DNA evidence even as he made speeches about prosecuting the boys.  And he made efforts to hide it from the defense.




We all await breathlessly Jesse Jackson's official apology.  Any minute now, I'm sure.

 That's pretty normal behavior, a good case can build someone's career, in this instance it all came out on the right side of the balance.
 can you imagine what would have happened if one of the boy had actually had consentual sex with the girl?


  If we did hear an apology from jackson I'd have to stop riding, I rode under a flock of gulls once, and was pretty much buried in gull crap, I sure don't want to ride under a flock of pigs.

He abused his power to further his political aspirations, and now he is disgraced and disbarred. Sometimes the bad guy actually loses.
