Nifong denies having knowingly lied or purposely hid evidence in the Duke case. And even after everything that has happened, he does not regret filing charges against three Duke lacrosse players.

I certainly hope that in coming weeks, Freedman continues digging Nifong's grave in like manner. While "I'd do it all over again" might have worked in the Gell case, it will not work in this one, because as Jezebelle has pointed out, Nifong basically has only his lack of a prior negative disciplinary history to fall back on, and will eventually be forced to grovel for mercy. If anyone is interested, I can list all the various specific aggravating and mitigating factors prescribed by North Carolina law in attorney discipline cases. They are very grim evening reading for Nifong and Freedman.

I would be VERY interested in reading the aggravating and mitigating factors re attorney discipline. Thanks.

:) I'm guessing Nifong can recite those mitigating factors by heart now, lol! :>
