After a marginally successful afternoon in court, I spent an abysmal evening in Wendy Wiest's company via MSNBC. I finally got a chance to see the other Nifong colleague from Durham. I went to bed wondering how those two individuals were picked for their commentary. It couldn't be their integrity or appealing persona. I don't think it could be their understanding of the law or their fair and balanced approach. I'm clueless and depressed.

I was also watching that last night. Worse than Wendy (who wants the defense to turn over all of the discovered documents to her) is that John Bourlon -- the wire-haired Nifong mouthpiece. I couldn't believe it when he said that if the players were innocent, their attorneys would be demanding a speedy trial. This is from a NC defense attorney!

In all credit to the host (I can't remember who it was), she pointed out that Reade's attorney DID ask that the trial be fast tracked during the first hearing. Bourlon dismissed that as only oral! (Does he not know that oral motions are quite common?) He then said that the players' attorneys should be filing a bill of particulars. What the h3ll does a bill of particulars have to do with a speedy trial???

This ignorant buffoon was driving me nuts. He doesn't know what he's talking about and he just talks -- shouts -- non-stop. Lord help our legal profession. He is so sleezy!
