I am thinking he is waiting for a judge to be assigned. Then he will petition for a gag order. That way when the discovery is given, the defense will not be able to make it public.
Nifong does not care that the defense knows they are innocent, he just doesn't want everyone else to know.
Excellent point. We are the marks he is trying to cool, not the defense.
More like "picking" the judge. A lot of attorneys play the calendar to get the judge they want.
Bingo!
Nifong will try to shut them up, but he may not be successful in a getting a gag order, and there are ways around gag orders anyway.
I think he's hiding the medical report. I think Mangum lied about when she last had consensual sex, that the injuries aren't as extensive as he has implied, and that she refused to take a tox or BAC test.
