Will Nifong go after bloggers?
November 8, 2006

Posted on 11/08/2006 2:41:16 PM PST by CondorFlight

Now that the election is over and this can't be considered just an election ploy :

Rumors are said to have been circulating in Durham to the effect that Nifong might consider (legally) going after a couple of bloggers; that if he deals with a couple of them the rest will be intimidated and fade away.

This is just a heads up; so that if anything untoward happens, everyone will know about it in advance and be able to make the connection. The rumors are well-sourced.

It shields their sexual history right?

We ARE a little paranoid, aren't we.

Someone linked a photo that was hosted on the DHS website (a photo of Bush and Rumsfeld). For some reason, the link was a secure link.

The certificate pop-up came up because the link was to

www.something-something.dhs.gov while the certificate was for

something-something.dhs.gov (The browser noticed the lack of "www" and popped up a dialog.

Nothing sinister here.

OJ has finally been stripped of his title. LOL.

Johnnie Cochran's death did not avenge the death of Nicole and Ron, nor did it satisfy the judgment the Browns have against OJ.

Justice delayed is justice denied. It did not prevail. An ignorant, racist jury saw to that.

Not in the criminal court room. I can't wait for the Duke 3 and Ashley Cannon to sue Durham.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That would be great! Perhaps malicious prosecution, which would make a good case given how the case was central to Nifong's election campaign.

Black Durhamites are on record stating that it doesn't matter if the guys are guilty because it's about getting even with whites. That is a fact, not a stereotype, and THAT is racist!

Rape shield laws protect the identity of the accuser. I'm wrong about this? Or do you mean, that the average Joe cannot be prosecuted for revealing the accuser's name?

I thought the rape shield laws protected both the identity of the accuser AND their past sexual history. Guess I'm wrong.

(repost from another board)

I think the idea with Nifong may be [i]also[/i] that he might go after a couple of local bloggers, so that if they have anything at all amiss, like traffic tickets, they'll get the Elmostafa treatment.

Wow! For corruption like that, I thought you had to go to Philly or Chicago.

"...Most of the evidence is circumstantial, and the DNA evidence, so called, has a very low provenance in terms of admiussability into evidence."

Whoa, there! There is NO evidence, including basic circumstantial evidence. There is NO DNA evidence. The DA has not even talked to the accuser. What planet have you been on?

Like the way Democrats use the IRS to punish "enemies" through targeting their filings?

I know of one on record. You have more?

Black Durhamites are on record stating that it doesn't matter if the guys are guilty because it's about getting even with whites.

Didn't C. Destine want some exposure? He had those picks posted until he threw in the towel. ;)

Nifong is a legend in his own mind.

I think C. Destine and his towel picture with the "BIG shadow" is a classic FR Hall of Fame event.

Of course what all this means is we are having a real effect on the Fonger. And he may just be stupid enough to try to threaten a blogger. It would be close to the worst mistake of his miserable life...

Who'd represent Nifong and pay the legal fees?

Durham taxpayers are going to have their hands full with lawsuits coming from the players.

Oh, then there's that pesky sexual harrassment suit recently filed by a former ADA against a "co-worker."
