Perhaps all this has been known to both Nifong and the defense for some time and Nifong simply needed the private lab to call it a "match" when the SBI wouldn't?

Do you recall when the first DNA results were known? Was it before or after the photo lineup?

April 4: Photo lineup.

April 10: Final SBI (non) DNA results received.

April 11: Nifong says at NCCU case is not going away.

So the lineup occurred before the final results were released. It is said that the SBI sent out preliminary results prior to the final results. It is thought that the arrival of the preliminary results was what caused Nifong to shut up. Anybody remember when Nifong started keeping his mouth shut?
