Has anyone heard anything from the detectives? Has anyone contacted them recently? I think maybe contacting the PD will get more action than contacting the DA office. I am SO tired of Durham politics overshadowing the important things. I just do not know what to do, and I live here. :banghead:terminatrixator said:Well perhaps with Detective Vaughn and Sergeant Cates and the others working this case they are above that and are working hard on the case and are not involved in anything but working their tails off to solve this murder. I am keeping them in my prayers that they get this beast soon.
I'm actually praying that the murderer finds God and decides to do the right thing, but I am pretty sure that won't happen, I think he doesn't have that capability of having faith, feeling remorse, doing the right thing, and growing the b*lls to face what he did like a man.
He doesn't want to give up his private practice.terminatrixator said:DA hopeful: SNIPPED

Why would he not served if elected? Why would he have his name on the ballot? Does that mean that the Governor would have to elect someone else then if Cheek wins? If that's the case, why couldn't the Governor re-elect Nifong?
This is very confusing to me.
Hmm, isn't THAT interesting...If I lived there, I'm not sure that I wouldn't like to "shake it up" and vote for Cheek just to see what would happen.caffeinatd said:He doesn't want to give up his private practice.
His name will be on the ballot whether he campaigns or not b/c he met the signature requirement
If Cheek wins, he will quit the post, and the Gov. will appoint a DA
It is popular local opinion that if he reappointed Nifong, it would be political suicide.
MOO
Isn't the Governor done though and not up for reelection? I heard a rumor that the Attorney General Cooper may be running for Governor in the next election.caffeinatd said:He doesn't want to give up his private practice.

He is not up for reelection as governor, but is still fairly young and I doubt ready to retire. I have heard others for gov., inclding Cooper...haven't heard Nifong or Cheek yet!!!terminatrixator said:Isn't the Governor done though and not up for reelection?

LOL - I'm highly doubting District Attorney Nifong would be running for Governor, or would win if he attempted it. I did indeed hear rumors that Attorney General Roy Cooper will most likely run, and he was out and about quite a bit for a while.caffeinatd said:He is not up for reelection as governor, but is still fairly young and I doubt ready to retire.

Agreed that the focus is way off here...I am thinking Lewis may win...in May, no republicans could vote...so combine those withthe irritated democrats, and we may have a change.terminatrixator said:LOL - I'm highly doubting District Attorney Nifong would be running for Governor, or would win if he attempted it.

Well, this will really be something if Cheek wins, but I'm thinking if Freda Black didn't beat Nifong, it would take something huge for Cheek to win, since he stated publicly he wouldn't run, though I think he may have had a chance if he publicly stated he would run.
Either way the whole political scene in Durham is very irritating to me. I think more focus has to be put on the victims and their rights and fighting for the victims as opposed to all this political stuff. It's really downright depressing to me that this crime has not been solved yet, and that no arrests have been made.
My heart goes out to Kaiden and the Christiansens and all those that loved Janet.
