The rogue prosecutor cashiered for his misconduct.
No surprise here…
In light of Nifong’s disbarment, will the Duke faculty issue an apology for their inexcusable rush to judgment? Don’t hold your breath…
Another target-rich environment will be the infamous “Duke 88” faculty members who issued a scurrilous and libelous open letter to the Duke community which was printed in the local newspaper and disseminated nationwide. At first blush, it seems clear that the actions of these clowns were outside the scope of their employment as professors. As such, they may not be insulated from liability.
Even if they are found to be not liable to the innocent lacrosse players for libel, and malicious injury to their reputations, the spectacle of these proselytizers of “victimization”, “oppression” and “institutionalized racism” squirming and being hoisted on their own petards of injustice is simply too delicious to contemplate.
