Thanks for this update. No condoms, no broomstick so how is Nifong going to explain no DNA?
It seems clear now the whole case will hinge on the credibility of the accuser. What I fear is that the woman who testifies won't be anything like the woman who gave her statement to police on March 16.
Ever since I read that Nifong had plaeed the accuser in a "safe location", I've worried about what that might mean. Has his wife, the victim advocate, taken her in hand. Is she hard at work "rehabilitatng" the accuser's appearance, speech, "attitude", substance abuse problem, parenting skills, etc.
Will the woman who finally takes the stand bear any resemblance to the original complainant? With so much of Nifong's reputation riding on his belief in her and her story, he and his wife have every motivation to provide her with special attention/treatment not available to other rape victims in Durham. If they've done so, I hope that becomes known.
