I agree 100% with your comments.. There were many of us who were naive to think that Kim's statement was an anomaly...
Now we know there are many who think "hey If they aren't guilty then they have nothing to worry about, they can just brush it off there shoulders"...
Unbelievable...
I think he feels they aren't guilty but he is very cavalier about what they are going through. As you say, you can't just brush this off. I have a feeling there are going to be some serious scars left over no matter how this ends up.
A lot of people have mdae similar remarks. Even Brodhead made similar remarks about "if they are innocent, how unfortunate," and giving them an opportunity to "prove their innocence," like it is no big deal to them or their families. And who can forget Nifong's statement about "their daddies" will get them off. Arrogant and childish, and not one of them has learned a thing.
It is unbelievable, and we can only hope that these folks will be held accountable at the end of the day. Absent such accountability, they will believe in their bones that they did not do a thing wrong.
