Special thanks to Joseph Neff and Benjamin Niolet, Staff Writers at the News and Observer for this article. Excerpt:

'DURHAM - To press forward in the Duke University lacrosse case, District Attorney Mike Nifong must rely on scanty evidence while deflecting serious questions about whether he broke the law or violated the ethics rules governing prosecutors.

Nifong has acknowledged that the case now hangs on what the accuser says from the witness stand in a hearing scheduled for February. Meanwhile, pressure on Nifong continues to build.'

I hope that Nifong maggot gets screwed the way he claims the Duke players did that lying stripper. The parents of these victims of false rape allegations are probably well connected politically and can bring down the wrath of god on Nifong; and more power to them.I hope he loses everything! Career, retirement, wifeypoo, the works!

It is now practically inevitable that the Duke case will not go to trial, because the "victim" is not in any way a credible person who can be sworn in to testify.

Frankly it would be a travesty to put this woman under oathe and allow her to be eviscerated during cross-examination.

Nifong will likely be disbarred, and then sued in tort by the Duke players for millions in personal injury.

He will be in court as a defendant for the next five years, and then probably in prison for a few months.

Then, he will write a book, get a TV movie deal, go on Oprah's show, and make a few million bucks.

American justice ... follow the money!

Nifong would be flipping burgers at McDonald's and living in a f*cking cardboard box when I was done suing his sorry ass.

"Nifong will likely be disbarred, and then sued in tort by the Duke players for millions in personal injury."

What about prosecutorial immunity?

I don't know about North Carolina, but a judge here in Arizona was found to be "acting illegally under color of law" or something like it, stripping his immunity and giving a lawyer the go-ahead to sue that judge for $4 million.

I hope that the same thing happens to Nifong, and more!
