Disbarment for Nifong would ensure he won't be in the position to do any harm with such obvious poor judgment in the future. He also needs to be named in the civil suit, but it sounds like he's judgment proof.
The AV should receive the maximum fine/penalty under the law and a civil suit for a judgment to ensure she thinks long and hard before she tries it again or encourages like-minded individuals from trying the same thing. A bankruptcy will void any judgment, but it will also keep her busy for seven years or so.
The State of North Carolina is solely responsible for the financial damages (in my humble opinion) as Nifong was their appointed representative. Sorry folks, but someone is going to have to take it on the chin for North Carolina -- looks like it's going to be the tax payers.
There's nothing anyone but alumni can do about Duke. The students are powerless, the funds and money need to dry up until changes are made and that's sad.
There's plenty of blame to go around, but from what I can tell, there are only so many laws and judgments that will stick.
No prob then. Strategically speaking, it would make much more sense to delay any civil action against the ho until AFTER she inks the book deal. Am I missing something?
Duke and the city of Durham are facing legal liabilities gigantic enough to shut both of them down and the other shoe which has yet to fall is what happens when the kids who have time to think about it choose between Duke and Brand X. Early admissions are down over 20% and those are the kids who had to make an immediate decision. Duke has to clean its own house and then move; no parent in his right mind would send a kid to ANY school within 30 miles of Durham NC at this point. The biggest villians in this entire story are the city of Durham, the racist idiots who live and vote there, the NC chapter of NAACP, and the activist racists at NCCU. Those people clearly view the voting franchise the same way Hitler viewed the V2 rocket, i.e. as a revenge weapon.
