DURHAM, N.C. — Disgraced prosecutor Mike Nifong submitted a new letter of resignation yesterday, agreeing to leave office immediately. The letter is a formality. Mr. Nifong has already been disbarred, suspended from office, and replaced by his old boss as Durham County district attorney for his handling of the discredited Duke lacrosse rape case. He had also submitted a resignation letter last month that was to take effect July 13.
