Strange, Nifong said that one would wonder why if one is innocent and has not been charged with anything, why one would need a lawyer. So why does he need a lawyer? Are the feds up to something?

Yeah, what would he need a lawyer? Well I Jezebelle and I have been debating some all day whether Mangum changed her statement or whether Nifong shaped her statement to fit the evidence. I still think this is a Nifong ploy.

So that is one reason he needs the evidence. And there will be no trial in this case. The NC Bar will disbar him if he has not dropped these charges by his trial date.

I sort of hope if Nifong takes it to the hearing on 5 February that Judge Smith conducts the hearing on the motion, schedules the next hearing for May 15 and then just sits his ruling until after the Bar has disposed of Nifong. Then after that has happened he could toss the ID and bar a tainted in court ID.

Nifong has retained counsel. According to WRAL, he is represented by Winston-Salem attorney David Freedman.

That name may sound familiar to folks here who posted during the Abrams Report last spring when Susan Filan suggested that the two defendants (Evans had yet to win the Crystal lottery) were wearing rape jackets. Freedman was also on that panel.

Oh, how far we have come!
