Zimmerman Prosecutor Affidavit contains NOTHING NEW!
Orlando Sentinel ^ | 04/12/12 | affadavit

Posted on 04/12/2012 2:23:35 PM PDT by gopcharger

The prosecutor affidavit contains all kinds of conjecture that certainly isn't based on the only eyewitness to certain events: Zimmerman.

Affadavit says "Trayvon Martin's mother" said the cries were Trayvon's. THAT is evidence? Zimmerman's father and brother, and LOGIC say they were Zimmerman's!

"Zimmerman confronted Martin" Doesn't the girlfriend say it was MARTIN who she heard speak first?

The fact that there is NO other evidence presented for "probable cause" than unsupported conjecture we've all heard from the race hustlers is astonishing.

Zimmerman will walk.

I have two words for the prosecutor:

Mike Nifong.

The DUmmies are treating this as absolute proof that refutes Zimmerman’s whole story, and that his goose is cooked. They don’t understand that the prosecution has to PROVE all this to a jury, beyond a reasonable doubt.

But in walking, the riots are defered to a more useful, predictable time. That he was charged only adds to the outrage to come. This is political theater.

Zimmerman Prosecutor Affidavit contains NOTHING NEW!...Zimmerman will walk.

I could think of a billion ways to win this case for Zimmerman. I'd put on trial the media Sharpton, Jackson, the state of Florida, and the hostile witness list would be more than the hash marks on the oldest soldier's sleeve.

I predict the charges will be dismissed at the evidence hearing. According to FL law no further charges can be brought and no civil trial can occur if it is dismissed.

With a carefully picked jury who have been educated about the personal consequences to them if they vote to acquit, will Zimmerman walk?

Zimmerman will walk.

Zimmerman should walk, but he will be up against the biggest railroad job and kangaroo court show trial in the history of the US.

The only thing the affidavit is meant to show is probable cause to charge him. It is not a full listing of evidence, and it isn’t supposed to contain enough evidence to convict. Having said that, it still sounds pretty weak to me.

So now we’ve now have an apparently “conservative Republican” prosecutor issuing an affidavit that might as well have been written by Sharpton?

What a circus!

It’d be comical were it not for the fact that a man who appears very unlikely to be actually guilty of murder is being put through this at the behest of a bunch of left-wing goons and race pimps.

Coming from where it did I expected the affidavit to present some “game changer” piece of evidence.. a cell phone cam or something.. that justified the charge.

As the case stands now, we have the most reliable eyewitness, one who saw and heard the events immediately prior to the shot, saying Martin was beating Zimmerman and Z. was calling for help, while on the other end we’ve got theories, speculations, character assassination (the profiling garbage), and now prosecution “theories” built on witness who’ve crawled out of the woodwork, changed their stories, or been exposed to weeks of propaganda and pressure.

What a travesty.

If you don’t have the consensus of the police that initially arrived at the scene, finding guilt beyond a reasonable doubt is going to be VERY difficult (with an unbiased jury).

I agree. This is by no means all the prosecution has, but even on it’s own, it’s a weak document.

The most damning claim is that Z followed M after being “instructed” by a dispatcher not to do that. That’s been dealt with numerous times, the dispatcher has no legal authority to command Z. It doesn’t address the actual fight beyond “A struggle ensued”, a phrase that could be used to describe what happened after Germany invaded Poland.

This is pretty lame stuff.

Meanwhile I just received a CNN breaking news alert text which says: Florida investigators say in an affidavit that George Zimmerman profiled, confronted, then fatally shot Trayvon Martin.

I hope George Zimmerman ends up OWNING CNN!!!

“Affadavit says “Trayvon Martin’s mother” said the cries were Trayvon’s. THAT is evidence? Zimmerman’s father and brother, and LOGIC say they were Zimmerman’s! “

I wonder why everyone ignores the witness “John” who SAW Trayvon on top of Zimmerman beating him and SAW Zimmerman screaming for help. Everyone ignores this witness. CNN even had an online piece on all the witnesses and left this man out. Who cares what a relative thinks they heard on a recording or what some 3rd party sound company says...WE HAVE A WITNESS!!!

“The guy on the bottom who I believe had a red sweater on was yelling to me help, help, and I told him to stop and I was calling 911. I got upstairs and looked down, the person that was on top beating up the other guy was the one laying in the grass, and I believe he was dead at that point.”
