I don't see the connection to the Duke case only that some officers are involved in same two incidents

I disagree. This is big. First of all, Gottlieb is in charge of the whole lot - he has like 6 investigators under him. Gottlieb's the BOSS.
Some reports have these two men (Clayton and Gottlieb) involved in the Cab-Driver fiasco, where a 3 year old misdemeanor warrant was served on a critical witness in the Duke case - when someone has already pled guilty to the crime and been sentenced. The Cab-driver, who is poor, sat in jail until a neighbor came forward and offered to bail him out. There is confusion as to which investigators were involved - wonder why it's so hard to get the truth in this investigation, is it because the people where the facts originate are lying and deceiving?
MOST IMPORTANTLY THOUGH - is that these guys are the ones that did the investigation and collected all the evidence. That signed affadavits that swayed Judges, etc.
Clayton - and others - were involved in the illegal questioning of the players at their dorms without their legal counsel.
Gottlieb - executed the only thing that ties these men to the ghost crime - the LINEUP! That was Sgt Mark Gottlieb!
Gottlieb secretly called NBC and tried to get photos from the party through the backdoor, when the Defense Lawyers were desparately trying to get Nifong to look at them.
Prior to this Gottlieb has come under fire by the Defense team for misleading Judges in order to show probable cause and obtain search warrants - and possibly the Grand Jury
These guys will be on trial now - if you throw out evidence collected and produced by them - there is absolutely no way to proceed.
Yes he was the one I just read over 26 May Motion by Cheshire
Mar 21 Clayton signature on the Evans ID no match
4 April Clayton was at the 3rd Photo ID where she picks Reade & Collinn
May 3 Himan had Inv Soucie & Clayton goes over the Power Point Presentation
May 8 Det Himan meet with Nifong and Inv Clayton on how they wanted to pursue this investigation
May 10 Inv Claton particpated in the arrest of Cab Driver
Cheshire was making on point one the lack of notes of this meetings. Clayton has his dirty hands in this!
also I think Gottlieb & Clayton served the warrant on Kim they she talks to Himan & leaves out the It's a Crock Remark in her written statement
