"The scary thing is that the guys could have been less clean cut - with a few more black marks in their backgrounds and a few less connected parents - and it would have been easier for Nifong to get them railroaded. The real issue here is how easy it is for a DA to corrupt our entire LE process for his/her own nefarious purposes. Let's hope some good will come of exposing the fragility of the system. It is episodes like this that makes me anxious about my support for capital punishment."I have to believe that most of our nation's CJS has built in checks for abuse such as Nifong's. Unfortunately, parents have no way of knowing when they send their son or daughter off to school that their greatest danger could be from a college town DA.
