Too much, too soon

We believe Nifong should quit this case because it's a loser. That's because the defense team has successfully used the media to make public information that will make it impossible to find a jury that will convict the Duke lacrosse players of rape.

In doing so, these lawyers simply followed Nifong's lead.

Nifong should quit the case because the defense team has successfully used the media? And the MSM wonders why their readership is down. No, Nifong should drop this case because he has no DNA, the ho can't keep her story straight and the accused have good alibis. If Nifong was a real man he would have dropped this case a long time ago and went after the lying drug addicted mentally unstable hooker.

Outstanding summary of Nifong deceit:

We all know of high-profile cases in which defense attorneys made early, bold pronouncements of innocence, only to revise their opinions as more facts about the case came to light.

The lacrosse case, however, represents a rare reversal of this pattern: defense statements have been consistent from the start, while the person revising his statements in light of new evidence is the prosecutor. It's almost as if Mike Nifong didn't read any of his case file before proceeding with indictments.
