I know a lawyer that is the State's Attorney in my back yard over that was in charge during a murder case that were a conviction was over turned and the police and the lawyers were accused of some misconduct. Then this lawyer even ran for Governor and is still in his State's Attorney role today. I guess if you change the "players" then our outrage drastically changes.

It wouldn't have mattered if the Duke players were poor and black, because, now understand this--
there was no evidence to support the charges brought by a rogue prosecutor who was hell bent on winning re-election. The whole thing was trumped up from the beginning.
And as far as race-baiting Sharpton, I've got two words for that: "Tawana Brawley."
