All three had excellent lawyers. I’m keeping their names, just in case any member of my family is exposed to a lying shameless prosecutor like Nifong.

New Black Panthers, eh? Surely none of them ever raped a girl.

“Just found this lil tid-bit from Murphy...if you can stand to read it”

LOL! Thanks. In the article, lawyer Michael Gaynor says:

“Ms. Murphy’s unwise words speak volumes about HER. Is she ignorant or stupid?”

I say she’s both.

I like this:

“Shortly after Nifong was disbarred, Seligmann attorney Jim Cooney put it simply: “I don’t think any of us are done with Mr. Nifong yet.”

To: Brytani; All

I’m on a “find more about Wendy Murphy” search. Here’s one...if you read through “Untrue Statements” ...... which are her ridiculous statements and the author’s true explanations on the Duke case, it’s interesting. The article looks lengthy, but it isn’t. Comments follow, which adds to the length.

I just can’t understand how she is allowed to teach at a law school!

'Rita Cosby Live & Direct' for May 18

"..COSBY: All right, Phil Carlo, interesting story. Thanks so much and we‘re going to switch gears a little here.

New details tonight in the Duke rape case. Heated sparks at a North Carolina courthouse where lacrosse player Reade Seligmann made his first court appearance since being indicted for the alleged rape. Hecklers taunted Seligmann as he walked in. NBC‘s Michelle Hofland was inside the courtroom for all of the action. Michelle, what was the big commotion about today?

MICHELLE HOFLAND, MSNBC CORRESPONDENT: Both inside and outside, threats inside the courtroom and tauntings outside the courtroom. First off, about a half hour before court was set to start today, Reade Seligmann walked in front of the courthouse here flanked by his attorneys. Outside waiting for him were a group of the new Black Panther organization. Listen closely to what they had to say to him.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There go the rapist and his protectors.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: How you feeling, Reade?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Justice will be done. Justice will be done. Justice! Justice will be done, rapist (INAUDIBLE) justice will be done. You need to be quiet. You weren‘t quiet that night when you were drunk.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HOFLAND: Inside the courtroom, as the district attorney walked in for the first time, a community activist stood up and began clapping. District attorney Mike Nifong started smiling. The community activist looked over to her shoulder to see if anyone else would join in with her and then she stopped. A couple minutes later, that is when Reade Seligmann walked in and sat down. As soon as the 20-year old sat down, a man sitting in the row behind him, behind the bench or behind in the audience, looked at him and said quote, you‘re a dead man walking and then called the 20-year-old a swear word. A couple of minutes later, the Judge Ron Stevens walked in and took control.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The lawyers will be talking. I will be talking. Nobody else will be talking. So if anybody is disruptive or decides to do that, summarily, you‘ll be held in contempt of this court and I will put you in jail. .."

Thank you. Fox DID cover it right up until the panel was about to deliver it’s decision (before the long break). I got home, son was still there. I watched until they switched to "War Stories". As much as I like Ollie, I could have strangled FOX. Son set up his laptop (our desk top is in the shop), and he said I know you’ll never rest until it’s over, so HERE.

He still won’t look at it (it’s too hard for him), but when the final break came at 5:00 our time, he walked in said, “Did they get him?” I told him, and all he said was, “Wow. That poor guy. I guess he’ll have time to figure out why he did it.” Like Reade, my son was an inspiration to his father and me. He never EVER said one word of hate or anger. He was just stoic and brave. I think this restored his faith in the system. Up to now, it’s been if-y.
