David A. Moran, an assistant law professor at Wayne State Law School, was quoted on the NBA brawl between the Indiana Pacers and Detroit Pistons. Moran believes that the entire case has put police and prosecutors under a microscope. \"Because this was seen on national TV, and because this involves national sports figures, it\'s a very high-profile case, one that police and prosecutors don\'t want to screw up,\" Moran said. \"There\'s definitely another reason for the authorities to take it very seriously. They want to send a message.\"
