Cooper's record there is not shining well.<BR/><BR/>I anticipate they (the AG's office) are trying to figure out what is the LEAST they can do in this investigation and still keep the fed's out of North Carolina.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-87849989847534662032007-09-10T12:36:00.000-04:002007-09-10T12:36:00.000-04:00If even a half-serious attempt is made to prosecut...If even a half-serious attempt is made to prosecute Nifong he will wind up behind bars.<BR/><BR/>I remain unsure as to whether the political will to so exists at either the state or federal level.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-29760232181851270722007-09-09T17:49:00.000-04:002007-09-09T17:49:00.000-04:00John,Good post.

Nifong and the police made no real effort to cover up what they were doing. They figured they were invulnerable, and a Durham jury would do the rest.<BR/><BR/>Second, the pressure on the authorities to act will be great precisely because everyone else can see these crimes, so it is hard for the authorities to whitewash something when it is obvious what has happened.<BR/><BR/>Third, I believe there are some people in authority who are genuinely angered by what they have seen. <BR/><BR/>Fourth, Nifong's continued arrogance has not helped his cause one bit. By telling the state bar that the hearing was a "travesty," he condemns himself. He basically has given the system itself the middle finger, and I can assure you he will pay for that attitude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-56982388628564096142007-09-09T15:33:00.000-04:002007-09-09T15:33:00.000-04:00Thanks!
