Remember this police department and prosecutor the next time you are sitting in the jury box and the defendant's family doesn't have a million bucks and six high-powered lawyers on his side.

He wants his son to be proud of him but he wasn't concern about someones elses son or sons. He is a bum and a liar!!! He did what he did on purpose and for political gain. He deserves the maximum punishment. If he doesn't get it the N.C. Bar needs to be barred. Period!!!!!!!!!!

hang him- make him suffer as much as these boys, their families and the city of durham and its citizens nifong made a ;felony warrant' against an escort/hooker that has stolen my dog and refuses to return- funny how good ol Mike has a penchant for letting hookers/whores and 'escorts' skate away from justice...maybe he has good reason...like he`s a customer!

When you are as dense as a log and as dimwitted as the town idiot, you can get yourself an "education" in America and proceed to terrorize the populace with bad judgment, uncritical thinking, and immorality.  It seems government is attracting all the worst candidates for leadership and oversight these days--people who want to act on their own prejudices and narrow minds, doing as little work as possible and punching out at 5 pm, no matter how much havoc lies in their wakes.

needs some jail time......this was considerably worse than "just making some mistakes"....

Just caught Mikey Boy's sob-fest on the news. What a scumbag and what a loser. There was a panel discussion on the news show featuring high-profile defense attorneys and prosecutors from around the country. All of them agreed that Nifong should be disbarred. Surprisingly, all of them also agreed that he should be criminally prosecuted and do time in prison. I wholeheartedly agree. The state of NC has an obligation and duty to prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law for his unconscionable behavior. I wonder, though, whether  it has the gumption to do so. A federal probe examining whether the civil rights of the three players were violated by Nifong's race-baiting tactics also is a possibility.

At least the state of NC is taking SOME steps to rectifiy the situation. That's more than can be said for Duke University. Its limp-wrist president, who has been backpedaling on the case for months, has done nothing but mutter vague rubbish about "healing." Yes, healing indeed needs to take place and it's all because of the wounds inflicted in the days after the Duke story broke by his Marxist faculty and the nut-case "pot bangers" in the Duke student body who behaved like an ignorant lynch mob. A good first step would be the immediate firing of the '60s burnouts, miserable misfits and embittered social engineers who make up the  Gang of 88 on the Duke faculty.

And as long as we're on the subject of rectifying things. Perhaps the News & Observer should conduct a thorough in-house investigation of its own bigoted, biased and out-of-control reporting in the early days of the Duke case. Call Ruth Sheehan as your star witness. It's time for you -- and most newspapers in the U.S. -- to stop viewing every story you cover through prisms of race, gender and class. Newspapers' tendency to do so is the unfortunate result of their obsession with "diversity," which kicked into high gear in the late '80s and '90s. Since then, newspaper editors have filled their newsroom  with reporters and editors whose leftist views put them increasingly at odds with the communities they serve.  The result? Newspapers with rapidly  declining circulations that are staffed by people whom readers -- and potential readers -- are reluctant to trust.

How can you rectify things? Make your next 15 or 20 newsroom hires heterosexual white men who go to church, have military service records and vote Republican. That's the kind of "diversity" newsrooms need right now to restore their credibility and clean up the sad mess they've made of themselves.
