Disgraced former prosecutor Mike Nifong acknowledged Thursday there is "no credible evidence" that three Duke lacrosse players committed any of the crimes he accused them of

That does not jive with the title, because that bimbo sure commited acrime of falsely filing a police report, and the ensuing Nifonging was criminal as well.

Call this an apology? To me it’s an admission of guilt.

If those Duke students who were wrongly accused had not had the advantage of families who were able to provide a top notch defense, but instead had been assigned a county public pretender (err, ‘defender’) for their case, they would already have been urged to take the plea deal which most likely would have been a combination of prison time, many years of probation during which they could be violated for any reason at all, and of course the obligatory inclusion in the states sex offender database for the rest of their natural lives.

And Nifong would have pointed to those prosecutions as a demonstration of his ‘dedication to seeing justice done’.

It is an unfortunate but true saying that when it comes to being charged with a serious crime, if you have money (and make no mistake I am not criticizing the Duke players or their families one iota), you get justice. But if you don’t have money, you get “just ice”.

The system is irrevocably broken when stuff like this happens. We need an oversight board that watches and monitors prosecutors at the county, state and federal level for just this kind of abuse.

Hello Patrick Fitzfong? Hello Johnny ‘Dear Friend’ Sutton?

This means you.

Nifong, the Narcissistic Nut, has been very busy transferring the ownership of his property (house, vacation home, luxury car, stock investments) to friends and family. The media isn't bothering to stay on this angle, neither.

Why?

I thinks it's because Nife the Nut-Nong and those within the judicial system and the media know he's getting ready to get his butt sued big time in civil court.

I hope the players and their families are able to recover all their legal fees and associated costs, and if Snake-Fong is left penniless, so be it. If they can garnish a person's paycheck for back taxes and back child support, then the courts should allow garnishment of his income even Social Security, etc. until his death if that is what it takes to repay the damage to those families of the wrongfully accused.

Maybe I missed it.

Where did he offer an apology here?

I see an admission of the facts, and other lawyers calling that admission an apology, but where did he actually apologize?

Say... maybe there’s a good reason for Nifong not giving a real apology or admission of guilt. Maybe he knows that when criminals confessed to him it never did them a bit of good, no matter what he had promised.

"We all need to heal," Nifong said. "It is my hope we can start this process today."

By saying "we," he erases the difference between himself, a villain, and his victims.

Scum to the end.

He’ll need to “heal” after his stint in prison.

Two things must happen to satisfy my Freeper mind:

1) He loses all his assets now and for the rest of his miserable life to the Duke 3 and
2) He serves 5 years in the county lock up

I agree.

The healing process can begin immediately after letting those three Duke kids beat the living shit out of him.

I will be satisfied when he is impoverished by civil lawsuits and is living on the street or in Section 8 housing. And to be honest, I really don’t care a whit about his family.

Nifong should go to jail.

"For many months, we have sought a real and meaningful apology from Mr. Nifong, for the pain he has caused these families and these young men, the entire Duke lacrosse team, the state of North Carolina and others," said attorney Joseph Cheshire. "We are very appreciative that Mr. Nifong decided to do that today," he said.

I didn't see an apology, did you?

My (regrettably delayed) healing offering for Mr. Nifong:
