Since this blog has more than 1500 posts, and since I at least occasionally comment myself, the blog provides more than enough material for readers to discern my opinions.

(4) Commenters who either misrepresent their identity or who engage in obvious troll behavior will not have their comments cleared. Troll-like behavior includes, but is not limited to: repeatedly linking to off-topic sites; repeatedly asking questions that already have been answered; offering unsubstantiated remarks whose sole purpose appears to be inflaming other commenters.

KC, quit stonewalling!
Praise the Lord. Easley is putting Jim Hardin back in as DA.
I've been away a bit ... WHAT is it you think KC is stonewalling us on?
I can't even bring myself to view these clips, as the intro from KC is enough to make me cringe at watching Nifong just self distruct under the questioning of a professional. Shameful that Durham had a bozo like this for so long.
How many cases to reopen in the County?
Isn't it interesting how defiant he is in these clips?
I didn't get tuned into the video until late so I didn't see these before. The transformation from this Nifong to the weepy Nifong I saw in the later clips is pretty dramatic. I think his lawyers took him aside and gave him the bad news sometime Friday.
Think the bar panel told them what was coming?
After all, the man in these clips is pretty righteous in his assertions that he was honest even if he made a "mistake" here and there.
I think he believes in these clips that he's going to get through this intact.
Perhaps, KC is holding the late evidence to protect Jim Hardin. After all, he endorsed Nifong to the governor in the first place.
4:49 - Whatever the heck it is you keep demanding KC post for you ... could you just post a link already?
Or if it's not online but you have the text, post the text in a comment.
KC's done an awful lot of work and dug up an awful lot of stuff. If you think he missed something, quit bellyaching, pitch in show it to us already!
"Perhaps, KC is holding the late evidence to protect Jim Hardin. After all, he endorsed Nifong to the governor in the first place."
What is the "late" evidence and why is Hardin now implicated in Nifong's mess? He recommended a career prosecutor to fill the post on an interim basis, is he now somehow responsible for Nifong's ridiculous actions?
Re: Stonewaller
This a-hole is fragging everybody and everywhere. Ignore him.
JLS says....,
Professor Johnson, What you are missing is that Mr. Nifong only suspected the the Duke lacrosse players were suspects. The NTO was needed because Mr. Nifong also suspected that the suspected suppects had left suspect DNA on Ms. Mangum. To check out this suspicion the suspected suspects suspected DNA was needed. Thus the Duke lacrosse players were not suspects, but rather suspected of being suspects in a crime that Mr. Nifong suspected had taken place. Thus Mr. Nifong viewed it as perfectly ok to use suspected suspects filler as long as he did not use confirmed suspects as fillers.
The NTO order itself for all 46 lacrosse players was extraordinary. Nifong himself said he had never seen such an order for more than a single individual. Also, Nifong's story that he saw the order just sitting on the copy machine does not pass the smell test. Does ADA Saacks who sought the order or Judge Stephens who granted the order have any culpability?
I find it hard to believe that Nifong is the only one in the D.A.'s office with dirty hands.

Thanks for clearing up what Nifong 'suspected."
Hardin would have been smart enough not to put Meehan available for questioning in December.

There sure was a lot of suspects to be suspected of being suspect. I suspect you are right about the whole idea of being suspected of something because something was suspectedly suspected of happening. I may have to had meant to say suspeciously, no maybe suspecious, had been suspected of happening, but I'm not sure or I ain't a DA. Crap! Whatever! They're guilty, right? (What in the hell was Nifong thinking?)
