Thanks a lot for pinging the list, Howlin. Smart idea to hold your fire on the other article I posted, too -- after using search (yeah, I sometimes use search (!) LOL) -- I saw that different articles essentially on the same topic had already been posted today.

Trial Date Set for Nifong Ethics Complaint

Posted: Today at 7:26 p.m.
Durham — A trial date is now set for the ethics complaint filed against Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong.

The State Bar filed the complaint last month saying Nifong might have engaged in deceptive behavior in the way he has handled a sexual assault case involving members of Duke Unviersity's lacrosse team.

The bar takes issue with comments Nifong made early-on in the case.

Nifong's trial is set for May 11.

He hired an attorney from Winston-Salem to defend him.

A three-member panel will decide guilt or innocence, and then, depending on the outcome, impose a sentence.

Looking at the NC Bar schedule it will probably be postponed.

IMO, the state of South Carolina ought to be liable for ALL defense costs. ALL

I googled the name of the alleged victim and discovered she has a wikipedia entry:

A quick view suggests it is reasonably accurate, but woefully incomplete
