Has anyone watched Nancy Grace lately? Maybe she's on vacation now, but I wonder what she will say when she gets back. I've watched her a couple times and every time the Duke "thing" comes up she blasts the players and basically says that she knows they are guilty.

Quote :

" Also Friday, a group of Durham citizens reportedly filed a civil rights complaint with the U.S. Justice Department asking for an investigation of the lacrosse case. The complaint contends the alleged victim had her civil rights violated by lacrosse players' use of racial epithets and alleges that Duke has failed to respond properly to half a dozen campus rapes "over the past several years." It also calls for hate crime charges to be lodged against Finnerty for his recent conviction in Washington, D.C., on charges stemming from a confrontation with a gay man. Activist Victoria Peterson issued a press release announcing the complaint and said she faxed and mailed copies to the Justice Department on Friday. No one at the Justice Department's press office or civil rights office was available Friday to confirm that the complaint had been filed. Peterson would not disclose the other members of the group."

getting more against NiFong

Quote :

"Dec. 29, 2006 — In yet another moral blow to Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong, the North Carolina Conference of District Attorneys called for the prosecutor to step down from the Duke lacrosse case. The group, which represents district attorneys from across North Carolina, said in a statement that "it is in the interest of justice and the effective administration of criminal justice that Mr. Nifong immediately withdraw and recuse himself from the prosecution." "It's extraordinarily unusual and it means a great deal," said Joshua Marquis, a district attorney in Clatsop County, Ore. The district attorney group also called for the case to be reassigned and handed over to "another prosecutorial authority." The statement was prompted by charges of ethics violations against Nifong filed Thursday by the North Carolina bar. Those allegations accuse Nifong of making inappropriate comments about the case in a series of press interviews early in the proceedings. "As prosecutors, we do not try our cases in the media. We do not file charges frivolously," Marquis, who is active in the National District Attorneys Association, told ABC News. "I do not know what the merit of the charges are, but Mr. Nifong has not brought respect to our profession," Marquis said. "Some of his actions have brought great disrepute on the profession of prosecution." Under North Carolina state law, there is no rule requiring Nifong to recuse himself from the case, even though he has been charged with ethics violations. But Nifong's critics — including defense attorneys for the three indicted Duke lacrosse players — say Nifong should step down because the ethics charges create a glaring and unavoidable conflict of interest. A prosecutor, they argue, cannot make fair and independent decisions when he himself is in legal hot water. "My opinion is that this crystallizes the conflict of interest," Thomas Metzloff, a member of the North Carolina bar and professor at Duke Law School, told ABC News. No sooner than three months from now, Nifong will stand trial before a panel drawn from the bar's disciplinary hearing commission. If that panel finds Nifong guilty of misconduct, he would be subject to punishment ranging from private admonishment to disbarment. "

12/30/2006 8:38:41 AM

Now Nifuck says he'll drop all the charges if the accuser cannot identify those charged when they appear in court. WTF?! Their faces have been all over TV, for Christ's sake! Nifuck is such a godamned cod sack.

1/1/2007 1:52:20 AM

those duke boys certainly got their money's worth with those lawyers. i gotta hand it to them.

1/1/2007 5:25:32 AM

well its not like nifong hasn't done everything short of dropping the case to help the duke boys, too.

pretty sure that even a public defender could've made mincemeat out of this one

I dunno. Nifong did textbook fuckups that would make this case relatively easy for ANY lawyer. I wouldn't be surprised if they could make a 100 level college course in law about all of the fuckups in this case.

1/1/2007 12:57:14 PM

Would a public defender have the time to pursue the exculpatory DNA results for nearly 6 months?

Do you have the money to pay a lawyer to work on getting exculpatory DNA results for nearly 6 months?

1/1/2007 1:37:53 PM

^Even with the DNA results "up in the air" any public defender could see that Nifong didn't have a case.

1/1/2007 3:48:51 PM

^^^ A public defender would never have the balls to try to get Nifong disbarred.

^^^^^ Makes sense. Nifong is as honest as Boss Hogg and as smart as Roscoe.

1/1/2007 3:52:20 PM

this is why prosecutorial immunity is bad

"The 17-page [State Bar] complaint accuses him of breaking four rules of professional conduct when speaking to reporters about the high-profile case. The complaint lists more than 100 examples of public statements Nifong made to the media [emphasis added], including WRAL, since March (wral.com)."

Yeah, those "Duke boys" control the State Bar and they forced Nifuck to blab his mouth continually to the media. Since being white and going to Duke apparently makes one omnipotent, I'm transferring.

1/1/2007 8:34:56 PM

Mind of Mencia took a stab at the Duke Lacrosse kids on his Christmas airing briefly dressing in a lacrosse uniform during his medley, "Dee Dee Dee." Just thought it was worth mentioning. I find it interesting how this has become a media fascination. Anybody have a stillshot of Mencia in the Duke uniform holding a lacrosse stick?

1/1/2007 9:46:08 PM

Nifong knew what he was doing all along.

"Maybe, but NY is a willful employment state (just like NC), which means you can be terminated for anything."

Apparently not though, because a lady I worked with got fired/quit (depends on who you ask--it was actually kind of both) and then sued for unemployment (I was a witness in the hearing) and she won.

I think the father would have a good case regardless because he was being discriminated against for something his son did, not something he himself was involved in. That's like firing somebody because their brother was a drug dealer.

Duke to 2 players, welcome back!

Quote :

"Two lacrosse players allowed back at Duke Duke University will allow two former lacrosse players accused of sexual assault to return to campus as students in good standing. The university informed Reade Seligmann and Collin Finnerty in letters dated Jan. 2 that they were welcome to come back to Duke for the coming semester. They they had been placed on interim suspension and then administrative leave of absence. The third accused player, David Evans, graduated from Duke last year. It's unclear whether Seligmann and Finnerty will accept Duke's offer to return this semester. The next court hearing in the case is scheduled for Feb. 5. The gesture reflects the university's new stance toward the three former players. After rape charges were dropped in December, Duke President Richard Brodhead issued a statement calling into question Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong's handling of the case and the fact that kidnapping and sexual assault charges remain against the three men. In a letter to Seligmann, Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs, wrote: "As circumstances have evolved in this extraordinary case, we have attempted to balance recognition of the gravity of legal charges with the presumption of your innocence. Now with the approach of a new term, we believe that circumstances warrant that we strike this balance differently." The letter was released by Seligmann's lawyers. Duke officials offered the former players academic advising and help with making arrangements for housing, either on or off campus. "Reade, it is my sincere hope that you will choose to return for the spring semester," Moneta wrote. "Please let me know how I may support you during this time." The Seligmann family issued a statement thanking Brodhead for his recent comments about the case. "We are also glad that Duke University has now made it clear that Reade is welcome to return to the University and look forward to the day that he can return to living a normal life and continuing his education as a full-time student," the statement said. "By now it should be plain to any person who has any objectivity that the charges against Reade are transparently false," the statement continued. "Reade is absolutely innocent and we will continue to fight this injustice. We are not going to rest until Reade's good name has been cleared and those who have been responsible for this injustice have been held fully accountable.""

1/3/2007 1:53:13 PM

I thought from the beginning that the even temporary suspension of the accused and especially of the lacrosse player who wrote that *private* email was ridiculous.

I think Duke has realized that not only were they wrong to jump on the guilty bandwagon, but that it could also incur legal consequences? - correct me if I am wrong.

If I were those guys, I would only be interested in going back to be seen on campus - as proud as I could be to rub it into the face of all the immature speculators and idiotic students that protested against me.

Do the 2 students have any legal right to sue the university??

1/3/2007 2:48:21 PM

I think it's common practice for universities to drop you like a bad habit if you're charged with a crime. Seems to me it would be better to wait for a conviction, but the world ain't perfect.

1/3/2007 2:53:49 PM

^ Judging by some of today's TV discussions, it is in fact quite uncommon without a conviction.

^^duke has a policy of suspending anyone who is involved in felony trials until they are concluded.

well those emails did show at least some of them to be bigots. so i don't know how proud they shoudl be. (not to mention other accounts of how they are racist)

^ah ok, i didn't know that. where did you hear that?

bigotry in a personal email that is not purposely directed towards anyone else (in the same type of manner as communicating threats) falls along the lines of freedom of speech.

what are the "other accounts of them being racists"?

1/3/2007 7:04:49 PM

^^ Calling it your policy sure doesn't make it right (kind of like "free speech zones"). To hell with innocent until proven guilty, right?

^^its a private university

1/3/2007 8:23:06 PM

^^^^ You do realize that the remaining "sexual offense and kidnapping" charges are felonies, yes? Yet, the "suspects" were invited to return to Duke. Is the university violating its own policy?
