Disbarred Duke prosecutor’s future dim

His law license lost and reputation in tatters, Mike Nifong seemingly can fall no further. But the disgraced prosecutor who committed “intentional prosecutorial misconduct” in his pursuit of the Duke lacrosse rape case faces an uncertain — and likely troubled — future.

The falsely accused players and their families, having racked up millions of dollars in legal bills, appear likely to file civil lawsuits against the disbarred prosecutor. Their attorneys want a judge to consider holding Nifong in criminal contempt for lying to the court.

So, Mike Nifong’s future is “dim.” Yeah, getting disbarred, and being the object of national ridicule and multi-million dollar lawsuits tends to ‘dim’ one’s future.

    Yup. He deserves everything he gets and then some.

    Now the questions is, when are they going to fire the faculty members who berated the boys, and took out the full page ad against them labeling the entire team as rapists?

    What code of professional ethics did they violate?
