Yeah, that second letter was written only AFTER it became clear that Nifong’s case had fallen apart completely. The idiot professors looked around and decided to cover their stupid behinds by hustling out a letter that harumphed that the first letter was “misinterpreted”.
Too little, too late. The damage has already been done. The university should fire every one of the original letter signers for bringing shame to the university and unprofessional conduct.
Is this letter the one that they wrote last year? I think the paper made it sound like the Duke 88 (now 87 - to be fair, one apologized) wrote a new one but I do not think they have.
