"He's got some other things in the hopper. I've heard he's looking at teaching jobs. It wouldn't surprise me if he wrote a book."

The only book he writes should be from prison.

[TommyDale]

Let the games begin.

[Always Right]

Even Nifong's friends expect the punishment to be severe -- anything from suspended his law license to permanent disbarment. Either way, Nifong would lose his seat as district attorney.

Not severe enough.

[Kenton]

"He's definitely worried about what's going to happen," Nauseef told ABC News. "There's that feeling that he'll be made an example of."

I bet the Duke Lacrosse players can relate to that...

[RexBeach]

Pride goeth before the fall.

[Moose4]

He’ll probably get a job on the Duke faculty. They’ll give him immediate and irrevocable tenure.

"He's got some other things in the hopper. I've heard he's looking at teaching jobs.

At Duke University, perhaps?

[Always Right]

Everyone was on the bandwagon at first, criticizing the lacrosse team.

Not everyone.

[Raycpa]

I’m wondering if we discover that Nifong was being blackmailed by the accuser.

[jeddavis]

There’s still one poor sorry SOB (Frank Fuster) rotting in a Flori-duh prison for imaginary crimes from one of Janet Reno’s witchcraft “ritual abuse” trials of the 80s. The job of DA is a magnet for psychopaths like Nifong, Reno, Ronnie Earle and this clown Fitzgerald, and needs to be abolished. NOBODY should have any sort of a career or money incentive to put people in prison, ever. It’s past time to bag the entire “adversarial” system of justice and either adopt something like the French inquisitorial system or, equivalently, put the jury in charge of the proceedings.

It scares me to think that one case can mar you for the rest of your life.

But I will bet that Stormy was quite happy to see Scooter Libby railroaded for one memory lapse - and thereby marked for life. That's okay, huh, Stormy?

I think a good start would be having him play goalie during a Duke Lacrosse game practice.

Without pads or helmet or protection of any sort, of course.

[Mr. K]

If he loses the trial the civil lawsuits will bankrut him.

He deserves it for ruining their lives. All his old convictions now need to be looked at.

If these lacrosse players could not have afforded bail they would have been sitting IN JAIL this whole time!!! And if they could not affor dlawyers they would have probably been railroaded all the way through a trial, and possibly convicted by a racist jury (think: O.J.)

[caver]

“friends expect the punishment to be severe — anything from suspended his law license to permanent disbarment.”

I can’t imagine that all the punishment Nifong would get is losing his job. His crime is akin to any other white collar crime. He didn’t do any physical harm to people other that ruining their lives.

It scares me to think that one case can mar you for the rest of your life.

With just one case that bastard wanted to destroy the lives of 3 innocent students.

[umgud]

"I'm shocked that he has been tainted as a 'rogue prosecutor.' It scares me to think that one case can mar you for the rest of your life."

Not as shocked as the accused as to what one 'rogue prosecutor' could do to the rest of their lives.

[freekitty]

What about that Sutton guy who put those Border Agents in jail?

[PackerBronco]

"He's got some other things in the hopper ... It wouldn't surprise me if he wrote a book made license plates ..."

[NittanyLion]

Nauseef saw the attorney general's comments as overly harsh -- a move to curry political support and popularity.

There's a certain irony to that...lol.

"I'm shocked that he has been tainted as a 'rogue prosecutor.' It scares me to think that one case can mar you for the rest of your life."

That's the funny thing about breaking trust. It's hard to know whether the event was actually an aberration or whether it's just the first time one was caught. In this case, my bet is on the latter.

[chesley]

"I'm shocked that he has been tainted as a 'rogue prosecutor.' It scares me to think that one case can mar you for the rest of your life." So you would let a murderer go free because he is well-respected? That's what this person is saying. I'm not Jewish, but I read an article once by a rabbi that said destroying a person's character is, in some ways, worse than just killing them. They have to live and suffer with what was done to them. I tend to agree, and think hanging is too good for Nifong, Mangum, and the police officers involved. Now Nifong has to live with it, and whatever he gets, it won't be undeserved.

[advertising guy]

what this fool does not know is he will be made an example of lieing,stealing and cheating in the guise of an officer of the court. He damaged all of that. He damaged Duke.
He damaged the rape shield law. He damaged Nancy Grace et al.

This fool will roast because he humiliated a liberal
not cheated law.
