Nifong Disbarred
The embarrassed once prosecutor who had filed charges of rape against one time players of the men’s lacrosse team from Duke University was judged guilty in criminal contempt of court and punished to one day in jail.
District Attorney M.Nifong’s choice to keep DNA evidence from defense attorneys that had the potential to have freed the three defendants was an kick in the face to the integrity of the justice system.
The DNA evidence discovered on the female entertainer purchased to do her stuff at a team celebration who accused men of raping her did not match up that of any of the 46 team members. If this proof had been introduced at the proper time as is the law, then it would have been dismissed outright.
Nifong was disbarred in June because of the case.
