This story has changed so many times...

[Mr. Brightside]

Depends on the meaning of what "raped" is.

Depends on the meaning of what "minutes" is.

"When something happens to you that is really awful, it can seem like it takes place longer than it actually takes," District Attorney Mike Nifong said.

I feel this way every time I listen to Mike Nifong speak :O)

Superior Court Judge W. Osmond Smith III denied a defense request that prosecutors provide a detailed accounting of the alleged assault, including the exact time, place and type of sexual act the accuser said each defendant committed.

Is it just me, or does this sound nuts to you, too? "You're accused of ... doing something ... but we won't tell you what!"

[Sue Perkick]

Just when you thought the case couldn't get stupider. Nifongery strikes again.

Bump

Pinocchio Nifong speaks again.

I'm not a lawyer and I don't play one on tv..but I don't see where nifong is going with this..he can't go to trial..the defense would rip the "victim" apart with her holes in her story and past accusations..is the da hoping the players will accept a plea bargain??..maybe someone with a law degree can splain this to me..

5-10minutes by three guys loaded to the gill on alcoholic beverage? It couldn't have happened that fast with one woman and one drunk man, under perfect circumstances, with the Lady involved being the love of his life and cooperating with all her might.

If the DA had ever once in his life been drunk and amorous at the same time, he would know he's talking pure BS.

Why hasn't this jackass been disbarred yet?

"When something happens to you that is really awful, it can seem like it takes place longer than it actually takes," District Attorney Mike Nifong said.

Wait, so the run-up to this trial only seems to be taking months? Phew, I feel better.

What an absolute joke.

Mike Ding Dong is now manufacturing witness facts and testimony so it can fit the prosecutions house of tissue paper?

Unbelievable.

Howlin - Greta Van Susteren had four lawyers on her show last night. It appeared three were pro-prosecution, and one was pro-defense.

The whole interview came apart at the seams. The African-American lawyer started making up law and legal ethical rules on camera in order to try to smear the Duke player's defense team. He claimed that polling the community was an attempt to "poison the jury pool" and made numerous nefarious charges that had no merit whatsoever.

In what must have been a feat never to be seen again on a Greta Van Susteren show, she and the other three lawyers started coming unglued at the black lawyer, saying he was nuts.

The other lawyers pointed out that polling a community in order to prepare your defense is perfectly legal, acceptable, and is practiced everyday in legal circles. They are used to gage the communities reaction to a case so the defense can build its legal arguments.

It turns out that Mike NiFong's wife, who has a different last name from him (weird?), received one of these polling phone calls and hit the roof! She passed this information on to her husband, Mike Ding Dong, who alerted the MSM and his Democratic allies so they can spin up a phony PR "outraged!" fest.

On Greta's show, even the lawyers could not take this black activist lawyer's overheated rhetoric that the defense team was "breaking the law" and had "crossed the line."

He was embarrassed at having been called on his antics. But, he tried again and again to score some soundbite points for NiFong. So at the end of the show, he broke into hysterical laughter while they all cringed.

This trial is going to be a bloody mess.

>Kirk Osborn, who represents Seligmann, said the defense needed the "bill of particulars"

Failure to provide a BOP in a timely manner can easily be reversible error, because it prevents D from investigating matter until long after events occurred, memories fades, outside influences brought, etc., as opposed to cops who had them on tape and in sworn statements from day one.

This is a POS case!

[Lazamataz]

Is this guy still beating this non-existant dead horse?

Regarding the title: Isn't that sort of *ahem* impossible? I mean, there were four of them... Maybe ten minutes each, but that long all together? Nifong is grasping.
