Martin had been suspended for tardiness, but that is not what he was last suspended for. I can easily see the confusion.
The confusion
was sewn by his daddy, Tracy Martin, who lied early on as to the reason for Trayvon's suspension.
Remember the 'tardiness' statement apparently came from Martin's parents, did it not? His parents also said the suspension for possession of drug-related paraphernalia came because he was in an unauthorized area. I'm not denying tardiness was the reason for a prior suspension, but I'd like to get that information from an original source, not a spokesperson for Martin.
Both sides in this case are fluffing the information they are presenting, wouldn't you agree?
