RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Attorneys for the three players falsely accused in the Duke University lacrosse rape case are seeking a settlement of about $30 million and several changes to the state’s legal process, a person close to the case said early Friday.If the terms aren’t met, the players’ attorneys will file a civil rights lawsuit against the city of Durham early next month, said the source, who requested anonymity because not all of the details of the proposed settlement had been worked out.

Ok, hmm … let’s see. On one hand I would say $30 million is a bit much but on the other hand this is a case of government gone amok so is $30 million enough? But on the other other hand, it will be the taxpayers that foot the bill. Maybe only those people that voted for Mike Nifong should foot the bill?
