She’s the new Mike Nifong. Stupid beeyatch could very well have destroyed her career, and for what? So Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson can extort money? Pay us or we’ll incite a riot? How about she get some balls and charge Sharton for causing to incite a riot? The guy is up giving speeches threating the public and WTF is she doing sitting on her ass? It’s incredible to me how many stupid people are in positions of authority in this country. I tell my kid that allll the time: If you think you can’t be successful in this country, just remember there are absolute complete morons who have. Just look at our POTUS. The guy is a foreigner with the IQ of a donut, yet was able to scam a Harvard degree, become POTUS and a millionaire.

Coreys future:

re there background similarities? Nifong was a perfect example of the Peter Principle in action!

Per Wiki: Nifong was born in Wilmington, North Carolina, and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) in 1971 with a degree in political science. He registered as a conscientious objector during the Vietnam War era and participated in anti-war protests. After working as a teacher and social worker, he returned to UNC in 1975 and earned a law degree from the University of North Carolina School of Law in 1978. He was admitted to the NC bar.

Prior to the most intense criticism of his handling of the case (see below), Nifong won the Democratic primary on May 2, 2006. Many critics have argued that Nifong brought the Duke case forward simply to win a tough reelection fight against two opponents in Durham, a city with a sizable black community.

With no Republican Party candidate running for office, Nifong was a shoo-in to win in the November general election. However, growing awareness of the scandal prompted supporters to petition to add Lewis Cheek and Steve Monks to the ballot. Lewis Cheek was successful in his bid but quickly announced that he would not campaign or serve if elected. Monks, a Republican, was not successful in his bid but decided to run as a write-in candidate.

Nifong won the general election in November 2006, receiving 49% of the votes, while Durham lawyer and Democrat Lewis Cheek received 40% even though he said he would not serve if elected, and Republican Party Chairman Steve Monks got 11% as a write-in candidate.

Wow, Nifong was almost was beat in the general election by an opponent in his own party who stated “he would not campaign or serve if elected.” Sounds like Nifong was playing Chicago politics-— and lost!

The criticisms focused on a series of actions taken by Nifong: that he went public with a series of accusations that later turned out to be untrue; that he exaggerated and intensified racial tensions; that he unduly influenced the Durham police investigation; that he tried to manipulate potential witnesses; that he refused to hear exculpatory evidence prior to indictment; that regulations on the conduct of an identification exercise were breached by failure to include “dummy” photographs; that he had never spoken directly to the alleged victim about the accusations; and that he made misleadingly incomplete presentations of various aspects of the evidence in the case (including DNA results).

Nifong stated in a court hearing on October 27, 2006 that, six months after the arrest of the Duke lacrosse players, he had not yet interviewed the alleged victim. “I haven’t talked with her about the facts of that night. ... We’re not at that stage yet.” According to Nifong, none of his assistants had discussed the case with her, either!

Sad thing is, this year Nifong is eligible to get his law license back in NC.

Or saved it by preventing mass riots at the time. From what we've seen there is NO evidence suggesting Zimmerman committed 2nd degree murder! By charging him and NOT having the evidence to back it up this case will just fade into oblivion with little or no damage. Crisis averted, which is what this whole farce is about.

What I want to know is when does this SYG hearing begin?

In Jonestown they drank the koolaid.

Corey drank the I tea and ate the Skillets. This is truly a despicable railroad job on Zimmerman.

Wait till everyone finds out that Martins supposed G/F either does not exist or cannot testify to a damn thing.
