The media must have had a field day!

It was a few years prior, but the NYT wrote about the story during the election. Unfortunately the challenger lost, but he got 49% to the 16 year incumbent's 51%, and I have to believe that reviving these stories was a big part of it.

Another incident involved his white assistant state's attorney telling a black woman that they wouldn't prosecute her assault because they once had a case where the entire jury was convinced that all black women lie. She was promoted to head his sexual assault division.
