KC Johnson has done a brilliant job examining the issues surrounding the lacrosse case, and this time he takes a close look at Mike Nifong and Victoria Peterson, who publicly suggested that Duke University Medical Center personnel conspired to defeat the DNA evidence (apparently they also got to the towel found in the house as well), and who stood side by side with the New Black Panthers when they came to Durham long enough for one of their members to issue a death threat against Reade Seligmann. She is now working with Nifong's campaign, and KC asks the logical question: why would he associate with someone who publicly associates with a hate group?
