Linwood Wilson, an investigator in Nifong's office, said Monday that he discovered the warrant when he ran a routine criminal background check on Elmostafa, the type of check he does for all victims and witnesses the prosecutor's office handles. Wilson said he told Nifong about the warrant, and Nifong told him that the office policy was to serve it.

Wilson said he told two detectives working the lacrosse case about the warrant, and Investigator R.D. Clayton arrested Elmostafa on May 10. He was released from the Durham County jail on $700 bail. According to notes taken by Investigator Benjamin Himan, Wilson said that Nifong wanted to be told when the taxi driver was arrested.

thanks - and there's more even.

Like Nifong was contacted beforehand - and he told them to arrest the Cabbie. And we heard at one point it was 3 cops that showed up to arrest Elmo.

Which goes along with the fact that Gottlieb likes to minimize
his participation - on paper.

Then that's why they were there in court today. They were subpoenaed by the defense.

That is hilarious.
