Although Nifong has never heard the woman tell her story, he believes her.
He's never talked to her?
Even before the case made it to trial, Nifong taunted the defense attorneys.
"Poultry," Nifong said when a defense attorney asked a judge to delay the trial date.
"They're a bunch of chickens," he told the Herald-Sun of Durham to explain his comment. "I have the impression sometimes they are afraid to try cases."
agreed... Just another fantastic lie from a well documented fantastic liar..
That is the money quote. It substantiates the allegation that this hoax was for political gain. Nifong gave himself plausible deniability when the story fell apart. I would be interested in hearing from prosecutors on whether Nifong committed malpractice by not assessing the FA's credibility first hand. In the civil world, my license to practice is at risk if I do not personally interview a key witness before trial.
This article portrays Nifong as having significant emotional maturity problems, anger control issues and professional deficiencies, among other things. If this goes to trial, it will be a zoo.
What!?! He has never heard her tell her story? All this crap about Nifong listening to her story and looking in her eyes and believing her is revealed as.......crap!
What kind of DA wouldn't want to hear the accuser tell her story? It's the most important info in the entire prosecution case. You should always interview your primary witness - especially before you decide to file charges!!
Nifong seems to be operating under the "ignorance is bliss" theory. He's totally ignorant of his own "evidence". No wonder he doesn't want to respond to the Bill of Particulars - he hasn't decided what happened yet.
This is such blatant misconduct and yet no one will stop it. If Nifong isn't brought up on charges I will lose all faith in the criminal justice system.
