A crime is an offense that’s either statutory or prohibited under common law and recognized. Nifong’s conduct, as reprehensible as it was, is not a crime. He can be sued if he doesn’t have prosecutorial immunity, which I think he probably does but there is no crime in the facts I’ve seen and I’ve followed this closely from a professional interest. Whether one can profit from a ‘’crime’’ is not even in the picture here nor is it on the horizon.

Yes, I am sorry to say I believe he is judgment-proof. That must have been something he weighed before he jumped into the fray. I hear home and all assets were in wife’s name on the off-chance he “figured” wrong. He just had to make it long enough and it didn’t matter who he had to take down to get there.

If he had run an honest election, Freda would have beaten him and he would have been out. This was a calculated (very calculated) risk and he’s going to make it by the skin of his teeth.

Really? Not a crime, you say? How about obstruction of justice? Seems to me that he delayed the delivery of justice to the accused by suppressing evidence that would've exonerated them.

Are you really saying that it is not a crime to frame an innocent man for a crime he did not commit?

One of the charges the panel said he was guilty of was to use deceit and fraud in his prosecution. That isn’t a crime???
