Justice!

Finally, justice prevails in the Duke Rape Case...
Mike Nifong was disbarred and resigned from his position as DA. This means he can no longer practice law and his career ends fittingly in disgrace. His troubles are far from over because the three young men that he tried to destroy are going to take legal action against him. Now if only the gang of 88 would face a similar fate.

This case was never about justice, it was about politics and race baiting. Those three men should never have been charged. Was the team guilty of bad judgment by holding that party etc...? Yes, should the coach have lost his job and the season cancelled? Yes, stupid behavior like that should never go unpunished. But those three should never have been subjected to the hell they went through nor should they have to pay for the millions in legal fees they racked up.
