He isn’t the only DA or former DA from Durham that needs to be in jail. Tracey Cline and Jim Hardin tried to do exactly what Nifong did but to a black man. He sat in jail over a year and was found innocent. The jury foreman in the case called the case “a waste of time”. Hardin is now a judge and Cline is now the DA of Durham.
In this regard, I'm completely color blind. Any DA, Prosecutor, or Judge that knowingly allows an innocent man to be railroaded deserves the same treatment that they attempted to give to him.
They deserve to spend several years in prison and possibly become someone's 'girlfriend' - since that's exactly what they tried to do (or in this case, apparently, succeeded in doing) to an innocent man. There should be hard consequences for 'officers of the court' who are willfully negligent in checking their facts.
