I guess what I can't seem to bend my mind around is the obviously mountain of evidence Nifong is overlooking. In our situation, we even had a witness 18" away from the girl and my son who said nothing happened. We had at least three witnesses she blabbed to the week before she pulled her stunt, and the D.A. still pressed charges. I can't even imagine why.

Here, there appears to be voluminous evidence that Seligmann, at the very least, wasn't involved. The fourth I.D. the AV made wasn't even in town. The DNA on the fingernail was due to Evans trying to be helpful, and we've heard rumors that Finnerty's alibi is as tight as Seligmann's. Additionally, she had intercourse with one or more individuals that evening and none of the DNA matched any of those arrested. Yet, nothing, nothing seems vaguely exculpatory to Mr. Nifong. I understand that once charges are filed, it is up to the Prosecutor to fully examine all the evidence as it's the State, not the AV who is prosecuting those charged, but this passes all credibility. Not quite as much as our case, but there were, in fact, 30 or so witnesses to say nothing happened. We only had one.

Basically DA around the country are scared of the Wendy Murphy's of this world and the anger they can gin up if they don't prosecute on a woman's word alone. Only if DAs start taking heat for prosecuting flimsy cases like this one, the one the guy tried to bring against Bryant in Colorado etc. will things change.

This is not unlike the Anita Hill v. Linda Tripp. Hill falsely accused Justice Thomas of something, yet the left sees that she is taken care of forever. Linda Tripp provides the government evidence that President Clintion lied under oath to a Federal Court and she benefits not a fraction that Hill did. The left is relentless. Conservatives unfortunately are too busy living their lives or trying to convince the mush center they are liberal too.
