There is some serious dishonesty in the local government, and the insurance company is afraid that any investigations will only help the discovery process in favor of the Duke lacrosse players and against the City of Durham. If they only have $5 million in liability coverage, the insurance company may as well go ahead and prepare that $5 million check. The Duke players should continue to pursue the case against the County as well.
I watched the local news, and Durham Mayor Bell was being interviewed. It doesn’t take much to figure out what is going on behind the scenes! He had that “deer in the headlight” look.
Wonder what effect this will have on his re-election campaign? Maybe none, Durhamites supported Nifong last Nov. :o/
