Nifong tries the modified limited hangout
Posted by: Billy Hollis on Friday, June 15, 2007

Just out from the New York Times, via Instapundit, Mike Nifong, the DA in the Duke non-rape case, has resigned.
Durham County district attorney Michael B. Nifong said today he plans to resign his job, after admitting that he had “crossed the line” of ethical standards in some of the public statements he made about the Duke University lacrosse players he charged with rape.

Corey Lowenstein, The News & Observer via Associated Press
Reade W. Seligmann, left, testified at a hearing on whether Michael B. Nifong violated ethics standards in pursuing the case against the three Duke students.

An emotional Mr. Nifong made his announcement on the stand at the end of several hours of testimony in a state bar association hearing on whether he had violated ethical standards for prosecutors.

Nifong is in the middle of his ethics trial, which has not gone well for him. "I question the timing", as the old saw goes. I'm not the only one:
Joe Cheshire, a lawyer for one of the Duke defendants, said afterward “I believe it’s a cynical, political attempt to save his law license. His apology is far too late.”
I agree. He'll be very lucky if all he loses is his license.

Nope, just led us into a trap and we are too stupid to see it.

Don, according to some (well, one anyway), we must be absolute imbeciles not to see how smart and capable Nifong is.

On that note, my predictions on the case (in the comments here) are looking pretty good. Not bad for an imbecile, anyway.

Nifong should be tarred and feathered, run out of town on a rail, debarred, and sued in a civil case by the three lacrosse players from Duke for about $100 MM just to keep him from trying his hand in some other profession——like the rest of his life!

I watched some of it and what jumped out at me was he kept saying that he pushed the prosecution so hard because "We are very diverse here in Durham" and "We have a very large African-American population." He basically admitted on the stand that the charges were pushed because of the defendants race. That sounds like Durham could be sued big time for a government enforced hate crime and his testimony used against them.

My own peeve for years has been the lack of good information on the bad people such as extremists, deviants, bigots and terrorists in our communities.

I created the website www.religiousfreedomwatch.org

It has been out there for some time but given the sorry state of the world and the ever growing number of terrorists the time had come.

Hardly a day goes by that it is not voted either the most useful or the most ethical site on the internet.

If you wonder if the new girl at your office is a Jihad extremist, this site will tell you.

You know that guy, you always see at the market? Is it possible he is a child molestor? Well, this site will tell you. Why not look just to be sure?

Don’t be surprised if I tell you this site is the one used by the FBI and CIA to check things. Major airlines express thanks daily that we are there to keep the next group of 9-11 Muslims off flights. Even though I think religious freedom is important this is where I draw the line.

Just look at the Duke case. A quick look at www.religiousfreedomwatch.org would of told Nifong that those lacrosse players were not sexual deviants. Now look where he is.

My company is American Coast Title and it is very profitable. We pay all of the fees for this site and keep it up to date. Not long ago the site helped a special task force capture wanted terrorist and fugitive bomb maker Keith Henson!

Did you know that some of these terrorists are also depraved sexually? Just look at Carnegie Mellon professor Dave Touretzky. The site will give you the details of orders he places using the University’s own letterhead for sex toys! He works with Patricia Greenway who makes hate films. Pamela Lichtenwalner is involved. She is a girl’s gym coach in San Diego, teaches sexual education classes using their materials.

It is a matter of public record that Extreme Jihadist Islam promotes perversion. A successful terrorist is guaranteed a house in Islamic heaven with 172 virgins. IIt wsa through www.religiousfreedomwatch.org the FBI learned about the 9-11 suicide Muslims getting prostitutes the night before.

I do need your help but I will pay for it.

A bunch of Indonesians are after me. I am offering a substantial reward, paid once again by the company, for your help in finding and stopping these zealots.

You can see the details on the reward section of the site. You can also email me at jphillips@actfortitle.com or also mlundgren@actfortitle.com or also dhatchett@actfortitle.com or also fberriz@actfortitle.com or also cbryant@actfortitle.com or also or also nvong@actfortitle.com or also the actual reward email itself reward5000@earthlink.net

Help us stop these guys and put some clean cash in your pocket!
