It looks like Nifong was ahead of the curve on this one. |

Didn't the prosecutors try in 2007 to weaken the law? The Duke case put a stop to that, but I suspect they are counting on fading memories. Maybe Crystal realized that and decided she needed to get the case back into the spotlight. Likewise with Judge Beaty.

It sends a very bad message to local DAs after the Bar dealt with Nifong. It looks like the state wants to protect rogue DAs instead of concerning themselves with the integrity of the judicial system. I hope people like Cheshire, Smith, et al., are lobbying heavily against this. |

Of course open discovery is fine if you actually get your DNA lab to turn over the results and not hide them under weird definitions of probative. And another biggie is you actually have to "READ THE FILES" if you are the PD or Police. I would just be happy if the Grand Jury System in NC would keep a transcript. IMHO RCD would not have been indicted if Gottlieb or Himan knew what they said in the Grand Jury would be able to be viewed by the defense attorneys once it went to trial. In california all indicted get a copy of the Grand Jury Transacript within 20 days after the court recorder was given notice. 2011 California Rules of Court Rule 8.613. Preparing and certifying the record of preliminary proceedings http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/rules/index.cfm?title=eight&linkid=rule8_613 |
