Nifong leaves jail after day sentence Former Durham County prosecutor Mike Nifong walked out of jail Saturday after completing a 24-hour contempt sentence imposed by a judge for lying to the court about critical DNA evidence in the Duke lacrosse rape case.
Nifong left the county jail and was greeted with cheers and applause by a crowd of about 20 supporters. As they did Friday when Nifong reported to jail, they surrounded the disgraced and disbarred prosecutor as he moved through a crowd of reporters to a waiting car. "I just want to go home and spend some time with my family," he said.
