  5. Paul's home for wayward prosecutors. Desperate DA seeks new hires, no experience necessary, qualifications or recommendations necessary. Must be willing to trade income for beauty - scratch that, you can rocket to the top of the pay scale, just ask. Interviews take place at the local foo-foo bar. Bring your wetsuit.

  7. Nifong is bad, really really bad - but I can't make that leap. Stoen is the worst. He should have been disbarred permanently long long ago.
