Seems to me that somebody is going to be writing these kids some very large checks.

You know, this is truly amazing. The first rule in politics is to end the controversy quickly. NiFong is dragging this out. He is giving himself the Chinese Water Torture.

Unreal.

Personally, I think Drudge should put up your CNN/Clinton story up with 10 sirens... but that's me.

Fox new did not tease it going into a thread about the case.

ABC News LAw & Justice Unit

Jan. 12, 2007— District Attorney Mike Nifong has requested that he have himself removed from prosecuting the Duke Lacrosse rape investigation, ABC News has learned.

A source close to the investigation said Nifong sent a letter to North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper asking his office to assume responsibility of the case.

Three Duke Lacrosse players, Reade Seligmann, Collin Finnerty, and David Evans were indicted in 2006 on charges of rape, sexual assault, and kidnapping.

The rape charges were dropped in December after the accuser could not recall key details of the alleged attack.

Sounds like February 5 is do or die for this case- I bet she won't show up to testify, and that will be the end of it.

Right. She'll fold under the stress.

Was his own DNA also found on the 'vic'?

As many different stories as she has told, if Nifong slipped his pic into the stack, she would probably pick him out as one of her attackers.

Heck even Lis Whiel [sp?] is dumping on him. No mention of recusal yet. Whiel says if she had done what Nifong did with the DNA evidence she would have been fired.

Doesn't mean his request will be granted.

I do think there is something severely mentally wrong with Nifong.

At a certain point even he had to see where this was going yet he continued to drive full speed toward the cliff.
