KC Johnson's entry this AM - Volokh on Nifong

Here are some Gaynor comments about C Destine's MySpace page - http://www.renewamerica.us/columns/gaynor/060722

Of all the comments from Volokh on Johnson's site this one cut to the nub:

Face it. This guy [Nifong] sees the need to defend his own actions in the future. He’s in better shape if he, personally, can say “she told me this, she never changed her story to me, and that’s the information I went to trial with.” If he had been speaking to her for months, and her story had changed and contradictory information had come out (as it has), and then he simply decided to use the “best” (for him) story at trial, he’d have a much more uncomfortable afternoon or two before the bar authorities.

Granted, he still faces that burden through the police interviews, but I think he’s more personally insulated if there’s no prior Nifong interview.
