As for Ms. Sheehan, give her the credit she is due. Her June 19, 2006 article is titled "DA ought to hand off case" and strongly suggests that she has learned something.
Ms. Sheehan's article:"There are two ways for Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong to get out of the mess otherwise known as the Duke lacrosse case.

"Great choices, eh?
"Every time I think this case can't get any messier, it reaches new lows.
