Beleaguered and disbarred former District Attorney Mike Nifong, who prosecuted the Duke University lacrosse rape case, could wind up in jail if a motion is granted asking that criminal charges be filed against him, FOX News has learned.
The three Duke lacrosse players falsely accused of rape by a stripper plan to file the motion Friday against the ex-Durham County district attorney who built the case against them.
If the motion asking for criminal sanctions against Nifong is granted, the prosecutor could land in prison.
The players, who have been exonerated, are also asking for financial reimbursement.
This has got to be bothersome to prosecutors everywhere. Of course, if they’re innocent of Nifongesque conduct, they have nothing to fear. Right?
