Durham DA under scrutiny for withholding information in court

In this 3-part series titled “Twisted Truth,” The News & Observer reporter J. Andrew Curliss investigates the questionable practices of Durham District Attorney Tracey Cline. This report reveals that Cline has purposefully withheld important information and evidence from the court.

“Cline’s conduct is under scrutiny for similar behavior in at least five cases …”

“In her quest to convict those accused of serious crimes, Cline has misstated facts to judges in other cases, a News & Observer investigation shows. She has not provided evidence favorable to defendants, as is required under the U.S. Constitution, state law and ethics rules that govern lawyers.”
