It is ironic that he is vilified for alleged political motives and
refusing to deal out the Duke lacrosse case with defense attorneys.


Just another Durham smear attempt in bold there. Tom Eagen is trying to taint the jury pool by suggesting falsely that the defense team would want to deal out this case. How pathetic and transparent.

From LaShawn Barber's site :

A vidoe of the Syracuse Univ. panel about the media and the lacrosse case is now available --

http://jpm.syr.edu/events_archives.html

"The panel was “Lacrosse Justice: Gender, Race, and Fairness in the Duke Lacrosse Legal Saga.” Questions presented:

"Did politics and publicity railroad the Duke lacrosse defendants? Or were their accusers treated unfairly? In America, who fares better when a criminal trial becomes a media circus?

"Featured speaker was Dahlia Lithwick, Senior Editor and Chief Legal Correspondent, Slate.com. Panelists were Linda Alcoff, Professor of Philosophy and Political Science; Sanjay Chhablani, Assistant Professor of Law; and Tom Maroney, Professor of Law. Mark Obbie moderated."

If anybody sees it, can they post highlights for those of us with dial-ups?
