Duke Lacrosse Case To Move Forward?

At least one of the attorneys for the defense of a Duke Lacrosse player is stating that he will not be considering any type of plea agreement and that he will either wait for the D.A. to dismiss charges or take the case to trial. Is this a bold gamble or does the attorney in question truly believe that his client is innocent of the rape allegations?

Another interesting fact is that the D.A. assigned to the case, Mike Nifong has stated that he will be making no comments outside of the courtroom. Again, is this indicative of the D.A.'s confidence in being able to win a conviction or is he laying low just in case evidence shows that no crime was committed?

It will be another interesting and entertaining media circus and hopefully in the end justice will be served. Regardless of the outcome. I have not seen enough evidence on either side to justify an opinion at this point in time other to say that anything is possible at the moment.
