"There were many points in the case where caution would have served justice better than bravado," North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper said.

He described the situation as a "'tragic rush to accuse' by an overreaching district attorney."

"I think a lot of people owe a lot of apologies to a lot of people,"

"Based on the significant inconsistencies between the evidence and the various accounts given by the accusing witness, we believe these three individuals are innocent of these charges,"

"This case shows the enormous consequences of overreaching by a prosecutor,"

So ends the Duke Lacrosse case brought by (soon-to-be-disbarred-and-sued-for-civil-rights-violations) District Attorney Mike Nifong.  Note that the AG found the players "innocent."  Usually a prosecutor will dismiss with a statement that they "could not prove someone did it."  Not being able to prove someone did it, beyond a reasonable doubt, is worlds different than a prosecutor saying someone is innocent.  This is damning to Nifong.  And it demonstrates the exact reasons the Constitution's Framers were so fearful of government power.
