abb, you are correct. Joe Cheshire is very well known in NC. He is not your ordinary, run of the mill defense attorney. There has been a Joe Cheshire practicing law in NC for many decades. That is why I laughed out loud when I read Nifong's statement about the defense attorneys not wanting to face him in court. Joe Cheshire V might be afraid of something or someone, but it sure isn't Durham DA Mike Nifong.
