That makes me wonder if Nifong is a member of the crowd that believes, "the woman said she was raped, thus she was raped" and that is why he did not want to see the evidence and why he thinks no other evidence matters.

I don't mean to butt into your very interesting discussion, but in my opinion, all one has to do is look at his work history and the position of his wife and you have a huge chunk of your question answered.

I keep going back and forth on this. Originally, I saw it as just the sleaziest kind of election ploy. But then as you say his employement history and his wife's position makes you wonder. Only time will tell.
