Disbarment may not be end for Nifong - USA Today
Excerpt:
"The legal troubles of Mike Nifong, the prosecutor in the Duke lacrosse rape case, are far from over.
Days after his disbarment for dishonesty and fraud, Nifong faces possible sanctions for lying in court and a potential criminal investigation.
Attorneys for the three accused athletes say they plan to ask Durham County Superior Court Judge Osmond Smith to issue sanctions against Nifong for lying in court about DNA evidence that later cleared the players.
The attorneys have also called for an independent agency to investigate what went wrong in the case. State Attorney General Roy Cooper has said he would decide whether to pursue a criminal probe after the state bar proceeding concluded."
