Nifong appears likely to face more troubles

RALEIGH (AP) - His law license lost and his reputation in tatters, Mike Nifong, it seems, can fall no further. But the disbarred prosecutor who committed “intentional prosecutorial misconduct” in his pursuit of the Duke lacrosse rape case faces an uncertain - and probably troubled - future.

The falsely accused players and their families, having racked up millions of dollars in legal bills, are likely to file civil lawsuits against Nifong. Their attorneys want a judge to consider holding Nifong in criminal contempt for lying to the court.
