Nifong press release and email...

[JLS]

Gee, the writer sort of forgot about MSNBC's Dan Abrams reading the ENTIRE discovery file...

The USAToday editorialist is barely paying attention to this case but Nifong is losing the PR battle so completely that even someone barely paying attention knows that his case is nothing. That means it is time for him to fold his tent or Stephens to fold it for him.

Nifong was talking about a "wall of silence" around the time of this USA Today article (03-29). In his recent email to Newsweek, one of the reasons he cited for his public statements was to get the players to come forward and cooperate.

Damnable liar. The players were fully cooperative from the very beginning.

[Fido969]

Even more lives affected by the lies told by that "exotic dancer".

Maybe "toxic dancer" is more like it.

Hey, you notice how the MSM calls prostitutes "exotic dancers"? Well, I have read columns where rabid lefties have called conservative women writers "prostitutes". They just can't call things what they are.

[Fido969]

Good article. "And he told me he was sorry for everything and it would have been a pleasure to coach me. He told me he was going to resign. But I have total respect for the man -- 100 percent. He built that team from the ground up. He did a great job, and did everything for me and my family. He called me to actually tell me that he was going to resign, and it was because of the incident.

You notice that the person of the most marked honestly and character is the Duke coach - who got thrown under the bus - and the sniveling little cowards like Brodhead, the Duke faculty and Nifong are thriving?

[Mike Nifong]

Norm Early is a first class idiot and has anyone noticed how it's breaking down along racial lines?

Nifong is counting on that jury, in my opinion.

He makes reference to that in his letter to Susana Meadows of Newsweek - he says he only has to to convince the Jury.

Seems like he's not concerned with the Judges at all? Wonder what Nifong knows?

[roaddog727]

The man (and I use that term losely) is nothing but a scumbag.

Nothing more, nothing less.

[Mike Nifong]

USA Today was certainly part of the Lynch Mob.

They played the game of putting any stories remotely favorable to the players in the back of the sports section.

The very next day more allegations against the players were back on the front page.

[Mike Nifong]

The whole media is really acting like Abrams hasn't seen anything.

They seem to be ignoring a powerful fact - because it's convenient, I guess.

The discovery file being reviewed by a reporter - a legal reporter - that's HUGE.

[Ken H]

Greta still has not acknowledged that Abrams of MSNBC... has seen ALL of the discovery that Nifong turned over to the defense.

I guessed the other day that while the defense gave Abrams the scoop, they would soon release the report to other media personnel. Haven't heard from Megyn for a coupe of days, so maybe she's been going over it. We'll see.

Nifong is counting on that jury, in my opinion.

And a favorable judge.

Man gets 7 years in Cannady slaying

EXCERPT

Assistant District Attorney David Saacks said Morris' impaired intellectual functioning, coupled with a meek personality, had made him vulnerable to the recruiting activities of gang members.

"To me, Ricky Morris is the poster child of what gang recruitment is all about," said Saacks.

"What we asked Ricky Morris to do, he did -- completely," Saacks added, referring to Morris' testimony against two co-defendants.

"Do whatever you can for him. Give him the lowest mitigated sentence," the prosecutor urged Superior Court Judge Ron Stephens.

Well it might have been better to get the whole file out sooner. Dan said it took him quite some time to go over it all. Maybe they should see what all the so called experts say they want to see and get that out to them so they would have to shut up.

[pepperhead]

That's nice, kill a 89 year old and get 7 to 10 years.............

[Sacajaweau]

Guess I'm looking forward to tomorrow. The idea that Nifong has NEW discovery seems absurd at this point so my guess is that anything he submits that favors the prosecution is "tainted" in some way.

I'm still questioning the fact that he personally picked up the second set of DNA results. Sounds way out of line. Could it be against the rules of "chain of custody"?

[TommyDale]

"To me, Ricky Morris is the poster child of what gang recruitment is all about," said Saacks.

I guess Durham is all into poster children. They are well represented by Crystal Gail Mangum and Kim Roberts Pittman, two outstanding examples of hard working mothers.

[JLS]

And a favorable judge. And in NC he gets to pick which judge he puts this in front of. Judges who rule against the DA find themselves not getting any felony cases.

" Norm Early is a first class idiot and has anyone noticed how it's breaking down along racial lines? "

Early and Goslee repeatedly make declarative statements that are completely at odds with the known facts.
Which is their perogative , but, pretty scary considering their history as prosecutors.
Ted Williams said last night that Nifong either has some secret evidence that no one has yet heard about- or he has just jumped off a cliff without a parachute.
So, Williams may finally be seeing the light-joining Filan and Guilfoyle.
My favorite quote this past week end was Kimberley Guilfoyle urging Nifong " to be a man and do the right thing."

[maggief]

My heart bleeds for this meek, cooperative, stupid murderer. /sarc.

[TommyDale]

Let me wipe this tear from my eye! :-)
