Nifong pressed Duke lacrosse despite its troubles</A><BR/><BR/>Nifong's attorney, David Freedman, said his client told police that if they believed the accuser's allegations against Finnerty, "then you have to believe her on Seligmann."<BR/><BR/>"Mr. Nifong did not — did not — generate a warrant on his own," Freedman said. "He had the investigators go in to present their case to a grand jury. There will be no evidence of any kind that they were instructed how to present the case to the grand jury." <BR/><BR/>For the other person that suggested that Freedman was going to ask Himan on cross today about what went on in the Grand Jury - I think that there would be a problem with that as he shouldn't be able to talk about it unless there's some kind of exemption in Bar hearings.<BR/><BR/>As far as the Grand Jury goes, I think that Orlando Hudson needs to start an investigation as to what happened so that this thing doesn't happen again.

He didn't care about guilt or innocence. He just didn't care, and he was willing to harm these three young men. I don't think, at the end of the day, anything else matters.

He looked like someone who realized that lying under oath would be a far bigger problem for him - and easier to prove - than any of his conduct during the investigation. What I do question is how forthcoming he was. What did he omit? I expect that will come out under cross examination. I would think Freedman will try to establish that 1) Himan was working on his own and not at Nifong's direction, and 2) that Nifong's decisions were based on information provided by Himan and others.<BR/><BR/>While Nifong/DPD/enablers claimed a blue wall of silence amongst team members, and urged someone to have the courage to come forth and tell what really happened, the real blue wall of silence cracked yesterday as Himan came forth and began to tell what really happened during the investigation. "You know we're f***ed." What did Nifong know and when did he know it? He knew on March 27, 2006 that he didn't have a case, yet he doggedly pursued indictments in spite of evidence to the contrary.
