Well like to ask questions here. So here is my question of the day. Why was Evans treated differently?

1. Why was Evans not indicted until after he graduated, ie not interupting his education unlike Seligmann and Finnerty who if Duke does not make some adjustment lost an entire term.

2. Why was Evans allowed to surrender rather than be arrested and put through the perp walk as was the case with Seligmann and Finnerty.

Was it because the election was over? Was it because Nifong realizes this case is falling apart on him? Was it because of fear of the power of Evans' parents?

I doubt it was because the ID was only 90% missing facial hair. It would be silly of a prosecutor to admit more doubt about one defendant than other prior to trial.

So why was Evans treated differently and marginally better?

I don't think he was treated better at all but everyone's perspective is different. In fact, I think he was treated worse. He was made to "submit" to a frog march and be ridiculed by a nasty crowd...or else.

So why keep the arrests separate? Simple..NiFong needed more time to "rearrange" his case and to put certain elements of the case in public view.....no doubt with the intent of influencing potential jurors and his political base. It certainly wasn't very difficult for the media to do "runaways", the nail being a good example.

I'd sure like to see the chain of custody on the nail. Only an idiot would use it as evidence to favor Crystal. It says Crystal was in the bathroom doing "something" with her nails not that she was raped and it's like so totally contaminated.
