I have to think that the Defense is utilizing the motions to get the information out to the public.

I agree.

"The victim was examined at Duke University Medical Center by a nurse who was specially trained in sexual assault cases," Nifong said. "And the investigation at that time was certainly consistent with a sexual assault having taken place, as was the victim's demeanor at the time of the examination."

The motion also states that the nurse who did the examination was not technically certified as a sexual-assault nurse, but that she was still "in training."

I think that's a by-product - frosting on the cake. The defense attorneys are serious about this motion. It's quite damaging. If Nifong doesn't answer it, he's really going to be in deep dung.
