Mike Nifong of the Duke lacrosse case has been disbarred and Durham in Wonderland gets it about right:
Had a prosecutor who was faced with a very unusual situation: confluence of his self-interest collided with a very volatile mix of race, sex, and class. If it were a plot of a John Grisham novel, would be considered too contrived. Facing a primary--yes, he was politically naive.The chair of the disciplinary committee called the ordeal: "fiasco."
But can draw no other conclusions but that the initial statements he made were to further his political ambitions.
Gee, an illegal "fiasco" whose political architect was exposed and fired. Can they DO that anymore?
