"To get warrants, police made statements that weren't supported by information in their files."

And from a post a few days ago:

“Medical records and interviews that were obtained by a subpoena revealed the victim had signs, symptoms and injuries consistent with being raped and sexually assaulted vaginally and anally,” Himan wrote.

Himan did not obtain “medical records and interviews” until April 5, and no medical personnel were legally allowed to release details to him prior because of the federal Heath Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.

Defense attorneys add that contrary to Himan’s March 27 affidavit, none of the medical records obtained confirm the alleged victim’s condition as the investigator described.

My questions mirror those of the other posters, but does this not qualify for Federal Criminal and Civil investigatioms for "Violations of Civil Rights Under Color of Authority?"

One can always explain a mistake or misunderstanding, but to obtain arrest/or search warrants by means of false information or perjury certainly must be viewed by any reasonable person as being "beyond the scope" of an officer's duties!

"Need to nail down what victim did on the day before arriving at 610 N. Buchanan so we can show that she did not receive trauma prior to the incident -- with witnesses."

Well, that ought to be interesting, huh?

I wonder if Nifong will call any of the three couples she "performed" for that weekend, or just the couple she used the vibrator with?

If the cops were willing to lie to get someone else a life prison term, they should get life terms themselves.
