It’s against the legal code of conduct for a DA to make public statements which can affect the impartiality of the jury pool.
Basically, a prosecutor has to keep his/her mouth shut, and save it for the trial.
We learned (or didn’t learn) the damage a DA can do by watching Nifong prep a lynch mob.
Don’t they have rules of conduct in Florida?
Or did Nifong move there and start giving lessons?
