Why would they sue her? She doesn't have deep pockets? She was wrong in what you did, but civil court is almost always about recouping losses, not assigning blame.
There's going to be a case against Nifong, which will be defended by either the county or the state (depending on the set up). That will only happen after the disciplinary action. If I remember correctly, NC does not claim immunity for wrongful prosecution, but I could be wrong about that. I do know that they're on the low end of the "immunity spectrum" as far as insurance goes.
