why isn't the justice system kicking in here?........
District Attorney Mike Nifong has told defense lawyers during discovery hearings that no notes were made at the center, that only a log existed from there. (N&O)
"...but District Attorney Mike Nifong has said there are no records of her time at the facility other than a simple log-in sheet. (H-S/AP)

To understand this issue one must understand Durham.
Where else must a black police chief back officers who were so blatently out of control in order to protect his daughter from being held responsible for the felony charges on crimes she committed?
Where else would the local paper and TV station be so culpable in protecting DPD sources that have leaked information in the past that they can look past obvious violations of the constitution and due process?
Where else would the city managers struggle to maintain the status quo where city employees can not safely work on the streets without being accosted by criminals yet the streetwalkers and gang-bangers can ply their trade with impunity?
Where else can one go and be brutally carjacked in a major shopping center while students have to worry about being abused by fat balding policemen with an ego as large as their belly because it is DPD policy?
Why is it that many of the headlines in other cities contain stories of individuals from Durham that commit crimes in these other cities? Is it because the only commodity that Durh has to export is criminals?
Durham is, has been and will continue to be a cess pit until the moral individuals within the town decide to demand better. Many of these moral people (including my mother and all of her family) have decided to leave Durham since the culture of corruption is so well ingrained. There are many upstanding members of the community in Durham whose voice holds little sway in matters. Durham - the "City of Medicine" should be the "Capital of Corruption."
