Very astute observation. Plus: My student said there were a "ton of people" around. Could DPD casually talking to a student might have been able to get some info? Would the roommate (who was there) have given up something?

Memo to self: Oh. Wait. That would have to mean that there WAS something to give up. Sorry. Just like Nifong, I was on the wrong track.....

A ton of cops were in the dorm? Or a ton of people - students etc? If it's cops, that sounds odd. Why do you need a ton of cops to execute a warrant on a dorm room? And they aren't supposed to attempt to question people they know are represented by counsel but they tried once before so who knows.

I doubt Collin's roommate gave anything up because there isn't anything to give up. What could he say?

My take is that anything detrimental to Collin Finnerty is already well known. First of all, the other side has already looked into all aspects of this with a fine-tooth comb.

Secondly, the defense is not going to let a potential land mine sit there waiting to go off at the time of Nifong's choosing.

If there were any bombshells, either the prosecution or the defense would have already made them known, IMO.
