"We don’t know enough about what happened to rush to judgment yet, whether that judgment is justified self-defense, murder, or manslaughter. The police have made it clear that there is evidence that has not yet been made public, and may not be put forth until the Grand Jury examines the evidence"

Thank you. That is what I have been saying all along. We have only gotten one side and things just don't add up.
We don't need the LSM as judge and jury. Sure it could be murder and if that is proven beyond a doubt, then Zimmerman should be punished approately.
So many things just don't make any sense at all. I do live near Sanford and yes the Sanford police department may not be the best, but I really don't think they would cover up a shooting just because the victim was black. Also the friend of the victim said he sent Travon out for the skittles and did not find out until the next day he was dead. That makes no sense at all. Many more things that we just don't know. One TV station here has it in for the Sanford Policed department over an incident several months ago with the old police chief. They played this up from the beginning.
All I want is to get the complete facts in a court of law so that so called witnesses will be under oath.
Now that REV AL & chief Race batter Jessie have gotten involved there is no way they will accept anything but Zimmerman in jail for life.
We may never know the truth. Last night here on the local news they stated that the police wanted to charge Zimmerman but the prosecutors office said they didn't have enough evidence. The police won't criticize the DA and that makes sense they have to work together all the time.

The key legal question is did Zimmerman’s actions set off a key of events that lead to Martin’s death. This is where the jury, DA and defense lawyer must fight over. When Zimmerman decided to follow Martin after he reported it to 911, he entered the legal hot zone. The jury must determine if Zimmerman broke the chain of events when he shot Martin. Example, Zimmerman claims he was returning to his SUV when Martin attacked him. That breaks the chain of events for Zimmerman and shifts the responsibility on Martin for his death. This also depends on what was said before Zimmerman headed for his SUV. Example if he told Martin that the cops were coming and he hopes they haul is nigger ass to jail and heads back to his SUV and Martin is infuriated by the insult and attacks, Martin has not broken the chain of events. If Zimmerman on the other hand told Martin the cops are coming and he is letting them handle the situation and he is going to his SUV to wait. He has broken the chain of events that lead to Martin’s death. If Martin is infuriated and attacks, then he has started a chain of events that will lead to his death. Zimmerman would no longer be responsible. This is going to be another Rodney King trial. A good defense lawyer will make sure Zimmerman jury will have a strong contingent of white/Hispanics to counter the black members. If the local DA cannot prosecute due to lack of evidence, a good defense lawyer has a very good chance of getting one jury member to vote not guilty and Zimmerman walks free. Problem the blacks will head to the streets and riot. If you are hispanic or white commuting in your car pray you are not in the wrong neighborhood at that moment.
