Another lesson from the Duke Lacrosse case is that Elections make politicians do dumb things.
Nifong wasn't a skilled politician, but he recognized the political pressure not to tell the truth. At some point, he just got in too deep and found himself in a trap. I see this a lot in woke politicians-it's just another reason to not elect them.
You’re absolutely right that Duke circa 2005 was woke avant la lettre. I was a student there at the time and some of the things that happened around the lacrosse case scarred me for life.
