All Charges Dropped in Duke Lacrosse Case: Overreaching by DA Nifong Cited

AP story here.  The state attorney general is quoted as saying the athletes were innocent victims of a “tragic rush to accuse” by an overreaching district attorney.  The AP adds:  “Portraying Nifong as a ‘rogue prosecutor,’ [AG Roy] Cooper called for the passage of a law that would allow the North Carolina Supreme Court to remove a district attorney in the interest of justice.”  [Alan Childress]
