Can Zimmerman survive in jail until after the election? One option the authorities have is to look the other way when Zimmerman is in the company of other prisoners. If another prisoner takes care of Zimmerman, the race baiters will be delighted and the politicians will be off the hook. I’m not sure it is really in Zimmerman’s best interest to delay the trial.
I expect he’ll be bonded out at some point, but not immediately. Right now jail is the safest place for him as long as he’s segregated.
Before they bond him out they need to find a place safe for him to stay but where his legal team can have reasonable access to him.
Having a Son of Barack kill Zimmerman, either inside or outside of jail, might be the ideal solution for Obama. The only thing better for pleasing his base would be if the person who killed Zimmerman then got off, O.J. style., but there would not be time for a trial before the election.
