211. Guess what? Nifong says there is NO toxicology test!
Edited on Sat Jun-10-06 11:32 AM by Karmakaze
Read it and wonder whatever happened to justice:

DURHAM, N.C. -- Lawyers representing one of three Duke University lacrosse players charged with rape want details about any toxicology tests performed on the accuser, asking in a motion filed Monday whether such evidence even exists.

"No such toxicology report, if it exists, was provided to the defense," wrote attorneys Kirk Osborn and Ernest Conner, referring to nearly 1,300 pages of evidence prosecutors provided to defense attorneys last week.

<SNIP>

"If there was a toxicology report available, it would've been included in the discovery I handed over to the defense," Nifong told WRAL on Monday.

Nifong told WRAL he had turned over all the evidence he has to-date and that when any new reports or documents come in, they too, would be handed over to the defense

So TorchTheWitch got it TOTALLY WRONG. Unless TorchTheWitch is saying Nifong is lying AND refusing to hand over evidence as required by law.

Leaving that aside for the moment, can anyone believe that a toxicology report was NOT done? I mean seriously! She was heavily intoxicated - and Nifong hinted that it was due to a date-rape drug, but NO toxicology report was done to PROVE it? I call shananigans!

On edit: Oh and by the way - for all those who believe that there is some secret evidence that the prosecution hasn't handed over, read that statment from Nifong again. He claims he has handed over ALL the evidence he has.
