Duking It Out

Prosecutors are worried. According to this article, they "believe that the Duke case is tarnishing their image, and could potentially hurt future cases." It's true. Defense attorney's are only too happy to remind juries of Nifong's prosecutorial misconduct. But is this is a bad thing?

Bringing up Duke may be a cheap shot, but too many jurors believe you don't get tried unless you're guilty, and it's the defendant's job to prove his innocence. Wherever this is happening, introducing a little skepticism is probably helpful.
