She works for a Distric Attorney
or she did.
The other thing she was REALLY wrong about was when she sneered that NC certainly DOES have a right to a speedy trial.
i can get this at CourtTv
i'll take a break
I want to see if she presents sworn testimony under oath. Until then, I really want to keep an open mind.
I want to believe in the ideal that truth and justice really mean something.
Maybe I'm naive.
I hope we can revive these threads when the trial is over.
I may find I'm eating crow for holding to those beliefs, but I really feel I'm not.
Can you understand why?
Oh, I want to see it play out now; believe me, I want it to go all the way now; I don't want the charges dropped.
They must be proved INNOCENT beyond a reasonable doubt now.
And this girl is going to be destroyed and, if there is any justice in the world, so will Nifong.
But the biggest loser is going to be the next girl -- the one who is really raped -- because nobody is going to believe her.
You people with some kind of agenda in this story can be real proud of yourselves.
That's what I mean. She's sounding unhinged. One would think she'd check her facts first. But we'd have expected that of Nifong too!
Leading police on a 30 mile chase, while driving drunk with a revoked license on the wrong side of the road with lights off, and then smiling as she almost mowed down a cop can't happen everyday.
That's why I think Nifong was already familiar with the accuser when this case arose, as he would have negotiated her 2002 sweetheart deal, since that was his job at traffic court.
I can't imagine what took him to make a third indictment. 90%, mustache, and partial DNA on a fingernail from a bathroom garbage pail. He must really be sure the good folks of Durham will come through for him.
He entered a diversion program. A judge felt his charges should be upheld because of the new stuff. The law is the law.
Maybe he should have fought the assault charge outright instead of entering into a diversion program.
That was his decision.
Someone used the word TROLL, in Marajade s other postings tonight, she is arguing we should take care of all the illegal immigrants. Why come to a conservative forum
if you do not have Conservative ideas?
I am a Doctor, Marajade do you like confrontation?

They may not be, but we do have education laws to the contrary do we not?
Either we are a nation of laws or we are not.

Ahem, she's already given sworn testimony under oath. Twice.
And both times what she had testified to is impossible to have occurred or to be true.
I want to believe in the ideal that truth and justice really mean something.
You call this justice? I saw a young man from a good family who had his whole world in front of him indicted today because a woman said he had a moustache and he didn't and never has.
Of course, you do realize, don't you, that because Nifong refused to even LOOK at those pictures that Cheshire tried to show him that this entire indictment can be thrown out, right?
That's UNETHICAL, as was the lineup, as was sending detectives over to the dorms to surprise the players when he KNEW that they had lawyers, as was arresting a cab drive after he didn't change his story about the Duke race case, as is calling the accuser a "victim," as is putting out pamphlets that say a rape DID OCCUR, et al.
What the HELL kind of justice do you believe in?
Well the defense is the one who leaked the DNA tests. I don't seem to recall a judge in this case saying they were sealed?
Material? Nancy Grace was calling it "human flesh" tonight.
I'm glad you brought this up. I haven't seen much speculation on here about the first player who was indentified.
Why didn't the investigator follow up the identification with a question about how certain she was? He did with the three players who have been indicted.
We do not drag arguments from thread to thread.
Thanks troll.

"They are bringing down the education of our citizens and are eating up costs of $14,000 a child a year."
Where? And what do you propose? We change education laws to not include ILLegals? Isn't education a benefit to all?

He entered a diversion program because that's what ALL first time offenders do. So he wouldn't have a record.
I'm surprised at you; I know you have worked in the law; why are you being deliberately dishonest about this boy?
"But the biggest loser is going to be the next girl -- the one who is really raped -- because nobody is going to believe her."
I would hope without a doubt that that is not true.
LOL I caught a few minutes of NG tonight with Wendy Murphy!
That was mindboggling! Dumb and Dumber
well the problem is a lot of people make their decisions based upon what they hear on Nancy Grace and Kimberly Gilfoil.
Marajay repeated the exact same statement Wendy Murphy said tonight on Nancy Grace.
