First and foremost, this is not in any way meant to dilute criticism or condemnation directed at the Durham County, North Carolina District Attorney Mike Nifong of the infamous "2006 Duke University lacrosse case."
I would simply ask in witnessing the outrage over the prosecutorial misconduct in that case, where is the outrage over the now more than 200 cases of wrongful prosecution overturned by post-conviction DNA testing that the Innocence Project has uncovered? And why are there so many faces of men of color found in these cases?
Please listen to the Bill Moyers Journal interview with Jerry Miller, the 200th person exonerated by post-conviction DNA testing, "Jerry Miller and the Innocence Project."
Shouldn't we be ashamed of our lack of outrage in Jerry Miller's case?
