Duke University case - little good news in this story

by Jeff OBryant

USA Today reports that prosecutor Mike Nifong, who charged the Duke
University lacrosse players with rape, has apologized.

They may be innocent of the charges but the Duke University lacrosse
players are not heroes. Let’s remember that they did hire strippers and,
while not an illegal action, it is not exactly admirable behavior, either.

Sure, prosecutor Mike Nifong went way out of line and should never work
as an attorney again. But there are no winners in this story. Not the
students, not the prosecutor, and not those who wanted to see the students twitch in the wind whether truly guilty or not (and now we know they are not).

It’s ugly all the way around.
