Burness does not deserve to share a stage with J. Coleman.
Also prior to your last duke talk someone jokingly wondered why you were not live blogging your own talk... well it seems like this is pretty close. Keep up the great work.
Well, say what you want, but that's an impressive and diverse line up. Duke Law deserves credit for putting this together.
Ethics and law seem to be popular topic nowadays. It would be interesting to hear opinions about this conference on law & ethics:
"A disbarred lawyer convicted of aiding terrorists will be teaching at an upcoming law school ethics conference.
Lynne Stewart, who was found guilty of conspiring with terrorist Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, will be speaking October 16 at Hofstra Law School’s “Legal Ethics: Lawyering on the Edge,” in Hempstead, New York.

This should be interesting.
KC will be among many characters we see as commenters on all the cable news shows.
Mark Geragos
Laurie Levenson
Hodding Carter...having seen him in ages.
Jack Ford...who grosses me out.
...etc....
I hope they engage in a candid discussion and not some obligatory exercise between the media and academia.
Nice that KC will be there live-blogging!
Our very best to Ms Kimel. Guilfoil is one evil woman.
KC,
Goodness. You do keep good company.
I am most appreciative that you will be giving us the opportunity to learn right along with you.
If time permits, would you let us know if undergraduates are in attendance and if they have observations about the process and content of the proceedings?
Thank You

It would have been fun to have Nancy Grace on one of the panels. Oh, well, maybe next time.
Nancy Grace couldn't make it to the affair? She could have enlightened the gathering on the evidence that Nifong never revealed!!
What??????
No Mark Anthony Neal, no Wendy Murphy, no Bob Ashley, no Irving Joyner?
Won't the group that can charitably be called "the buffoons" be offended that they are so underrepresented?
I imagine how the members of the group of 88 must feel. They are watching people make career making credentials out of the Duke Hoax. While the group of 88 will forever be saddled with their flawed performance in this affair.
They had front row seats to the greatest modern case of prosecution misconduct and railroading in America and they actual went out of their way to help support the railroading.
Many of these people claim to be interested in just causes, but they had no problems throwing the lax players under the bus for their personal goals.
Any statement made by the 88 will be met with "well weren't one of the group of 88?"
Imagine if they had publicly stood up and say something is wrong here lets wait for due process?
They will have a lifetime to consider what might have been.
Guest Speakers: CGM, MN, TL, RB?
But seriously, it looks like an impressive cast - except for the appearance of lots of Dukies from the Duke Pantomime and Law School. (It theoretically became a School of Pantomime when justice was treated like a discarded french fry on the men's room floor at Wendy's.)
Note:
Someone from the school forgot that Pantomime is not the same thing as Mime, as they were officially silent on the Hoax (except for Professor Coleman.)
At least there are others there.
Glad KC is, especially, except that KC ought to be a keynote speaker.
Panel member Ari Shapiro, Legal Correspondent, NPR News
NPR has produced dozens of stories related to the Duke lacrosse hoax. As far as I can tell Ari Shapiro has never touched this story.
So why now? Why not bring on NPR's Adam Hochberg, who rebuked the defense attorneys for their unseemly behavior after NC Attorney Roy Cooper "dropped all charges" Why not bring on any of the other NPR contributors to this failed frame?
If they wanted someone uncompromised by the case, why not bring on Terry Gross, who at least would be entertaining?
to 3:22
It would be nice if an alum would place an ad each year in the Chronicle on April 6 ... a simple ad that reads something like this:
"The Group of '88 ...
... faculty at Duke who thought they listened for a disaster, but in fact help cause one."
A copy of the listening statement and a listing of their names.
Each year, until the last one dies.
With a url so that google forever picks it up. So there would be no hiding.
That would surely have a chilling effect on other idealougues who care more for their agenda than they do their students.
And it would be just retribution for a group that surely deserves retribution.
In the dictionary, success comes between shit and sympathy. Professor Coleman is listed between one of the administrative jokes, John Burn-mess and Ray Pierce, the Dean of the NCCU law school.
Truly amazing that Burn-mess is listed as the senior VP for Public Affairs (we all know that he made the Duke HOAX public) and Government Relations (Government relations--aka the DPD and DDA's office------------but soon to be the Federal government)
Great idea - 9:36
KC: Going to Israel in the middle of this is like missing the Revolutionary War. Man, we NEED you! Where else will we get this perspective and feed our insatiable addiction to this saga?
I went on vacation and didn't get to the blog for a week and thought I was going to have the DTs.
I would like to hear Marsha Goodenow. She was impressive at the bar hearing and that was formal testimony. I can imagine her really getting going in an open discussion.
