Now that it has been found out that the Duke Lacrosse players were innocent and the woman manufactured the entire story, should the 3 wrongly prosecuted players sue the overzealous Durham DA Nifong?
The students themselves said they never knew this kind of injustice and railroading existed until it happened to them. They are rich, connected white kids. Imagine if they were not, and imagine how many others don't have the same resources they do if this were to happen to them? It does happen to others.
I feel that these students, now with the knowledge that this sort of injustice happens, have a duty to pursue a case against both the woman accusing them, and more importantly against the DA that wrongly prosecuted them. If they do not do this, they are basically letting the injustice pass, and well as any similar injustice in the future. Once exposed, this sort of thing needs to be remedied and a lawsuit would be a big first step.
