Nifong "Apologizes"... "To The Extent" He Made An Error In Judgment
And I'm sure the Duke families will accept his apology, "to the extent" they can seize every goddamn coin in his pocket.
Good news for Nifong though! That pension he was concerned with increasing? Usually not attachable by judgment in a civil suit.
So it all works out for him.
Pretty soon he'll be signing books and jerseys with OJ.
You Know They Want To Say It... but they can't.
What they'd like to say about the most corrupt prosecutor in the past decade, a good liberal Democrat with all his white-guilt papers in order?
"If he's guilty of anything, it's of caring too much."
They want to say it. It's on the tip of their tongues. It's in the forefront of their brains.
But they can't quite say that. It would give the game away, a bit too transparently for dishonest scumbags used to working in darkness and misdirection.
So they'll just have to resort to a bit of subtext.
The way they... surround a story.
