The defense has a video of 4 unpolihed nails that were left behind.....after the search warrant. I wonder if during the search, they just relied on the guys to give them any evidence? What kind of investigation is that?

An attorney friend of ours told us that anyone can accuse you of anything and it's up to you to then prove your innocence. Sure, the authorities have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you're guilty but you are put on the defensive at the accusation.

I'm starting to see that this is so. I must have been terribly naive. Before this case, that is.

Yet the warrant says 5 fingernails were seized....not 4.

By evening, I've pretty much had it with television in general and rarely watch anybody on any channel. Now, if she was on earlier in the afternoon, maybe I'd subject myself to her show. LOL

But I've read the comments you and other freepers have made about Nancy on this case; Rape Nazi is the only term that comes to mind.

True, but I'm sure Chesire would like to see it.

Crystal, pardon me for a moment while I put on my raping jacket."

Susan Filan of the rape hoodie, is now tiptoeing away from her earlier blind devotion to the prosecutor.
BTW-It's pretty telling when those still left defending Nifong cause us to burst out laughing with their outlandish theories.
But, not so funny for the young men and their families.

And how many women (and pimps) working for escort services give false names? 90%? 100%?

ROTFLMAO!!! Koblinsky just said that it's possible that Evans may have been wearing a fake mustache.

"Congratulations Nifong. Your case has now officially 'Jumped the Shark.'"

That's what it sounded like from the news conference. It was like the police asked for certain items and the roommates said, "Oh, here it is."

Nifong doesn't want to see any facts because if he did then he would be ethically bound to report it to the gj.

This is the traditional, and accurate, complaint of the black community, cops haul them in and the prosecutors just overcharge them and force a plea bargain. That is what makes the attack mode so galling. I agree that minority defendants have often been the victim of this conduct. The real beef is that these defendants have the ability to exposre it.

Maybe they should indict her boyfriend, since his seamen seems to be the only seamen they found in her.

Yikes! She slept with the navy?!

I didn't see it, but if she's calling for a gag order, that means the defense is making headway.

there is another motive for Nifong continuing this charade.

Anything is possible in Durham and another motive is highly likely. When the full story comes out it will not be pretty. I think we are seeing the tip of a very dirty iceberg.

All too often, police do not pursue real offenders, but rather innocent citizens...

I've been gagging about this for two months. No one has to order me to gag.

Once you've been accused you ride a slippery slope that goes on ,seemingly, forever.
These young men and their families are in for a long nightmare with unknown consequences. Very scary.
Not to mention the financial hurt.
