"We haven't made any arrests or anything yet," said Maj. L.A. Russ of the Durham Police Department. "He would not get involved this early."
"But in the lacrosse case," Blythe correctly notes, "Nifong assumed control of the investigation, according to police reports, before any charges were filed."

An informative story in today's N&O from Anne Blythe explores the question of whether the current allegation, which offers no political benefit to Mike Nifong, will be handled the same way as the lacrosse case.
The answer? No.

This is hardly a "mirror image" of the Duke case. This rape appears quite likely to have actually occurred whereas by contrast there was never any reason to believe that a rape had occurred at the Duke lacrosse party.
Leave it to the MSM to do what's PC - black on white rape is no reportable - fake white on black rape is.
Right, it's not a mirror image. The police chief actually made an appearance and a statement!
I wonder if the Crazy 88 professors are going to hang wanted posters all over campus with a picture of a black man in a do rag.
the MSM is F*****G outrageous.
We agree.
The false accuser is believed and promoted by the DA and the media because of her race.
In this second case, a real accuser is not promoted by the media and the DA because of her ( different ) race.
Only the hard left still believe the false charges against the LaCrosse players now.
Obviously the media are deliberately and intentionally trying to hide and protect one part of the population. The media don't want that part of the population to be held to the same standards as the rest.
It's because that part of the population commits more crime per person than the other! Can't let us know it or we might try to hold them to the same standard as us!
the msm is really awful.
really...
I bet Nifong will let this one go. It's already been established that black men never rape white women and where's the political benefit.
I don't care if the victim is black, white, pink, purple, or polka-dotted. If a woman was raped, the rapist should be castrated. Race shouldn't have anything to do with a rape case, except insofar as it helps the police find the rapist.
The accuser is white. The suspect is black.
Heard anything about that? Yeah, I didn't think so."
So it is clear that the editors at the N&O purposefully edited out that it was a black man.
To treat this frat like they did the LAX players:
Suspect should be followed by media
And his friends should have members of the KKK following him and anyone he knows and threatening them
The frat should be punished and have their behavior looked at under a microscope.
His past should be looked into and reported on
Numerous stories about black men raping white women should be written
The DA should be giving speeches and whipping up racial tensions
Guy should be convicted before stepping into a court room
Nifong has urged Duke to cancel the rest of the Lacrosse season and to fire the new coach. The victim will be asked to pick out her rapist from a photo lineup of lacrosse players.
Nifong will pander to his voters.
That he still is a member of the bar is awful.
it is clear that the editors at the N&O purposefully edited out that it was a black man.
I heard that Nifong is probably going to be the DA on that case, can you believe that??
