You sorry piece of crap Nifong you have ruined their lives. They will have to have letters from the state every time they apply for a job or loan as their background investigation will state that they were arrested and indicted for rape. That cannot be erased from the federal crime computer and will show up again and again.
You of course cannot be sued for your actions as a PERSECUTOR because like a judge anything you do in office as it concerns a case is totally outside any legal civil courts jurisdiction in other words you as a judge are immune.
Oh I would think they can have their record completely expunged....(criminally)
..but how do you expunge it from people's minds.
