The Right Decision

Mike Nifong, the District Attorney in the Duke University case, has been disbarred. That is absolutely the right decision.

Mr. Nifong forgot one very important aspect of our legal system....innocent until proven guilty. Because he wagged his tongue far too often, he had already tried and convicted these young men before they could have their day in court.

He put them and their families through a horrible experience. He tried to use this situation as a political stepping stone and almost succeeded in ruining the lives of these students.

Shame on you Mr. Nifong.
