George Zimmerman's defense team wants educational and disciplinary records for Trayvon Martin, the Miami Gardens teen Zimmerman shot Feb. 26 in Sanford, according to a new post on the defense's blog.
Zimmerman's team posted this morning that it has begun its discovery process, issuing several subpoenas aimed at gathering records on Trayvon's school history dating back to middle school.

Like father, like son.
If they are going to push the story that he shot a poor innocent boy on his way home from choir proctice I think they MUST be forced to give out this info
Trayvon was a budding young THUG and his records would prove it.
Zimmerman served up some justice. I am glad poor choirboy realized his ass was SHOT before he keeled over (no I do NOT have any sympathy for him or his loser family)
The prosecution got Zimmerman's, and released them to the press.
Ahhhh, the plot thickens, as it usually does, after the official story has already been told.
They probably can’t get his school records. School records are now wrapped up in layer upon layer of “student privacy” laws (I think written to prevent embarrassing revelations about the college years of the Clintons).
how will they get his school records?? we can’t even get obamas records
The prosecution got Zimmerman’s, and released them to the press.
Only fair that his be released then, and that Saint Trayvon be subject to the same scrutiny George has been.
With a subpoena. Schools can't assert privilege. Executive or otherwise.
And I'll bet the kid has been arrested. Doesn't mommy have a government job?
Show the street fight gang video where Tray is applauding. Than the video of Tray with his gold tooth giving hand signals.
Where's Della and Paul?
The courts are disgusting on this one.
I’d like to see St. Skittles’ blood toxicology report.
I wonder if that indication, from a tweet response to him, that he had assaulted a bus driver, will ever prove to have been accurate.
Nonsense. It means "Win The Future" - Trayvon was evidently a big Obama supporter.
I can’t see how academic records (grades and test scores) would be relevant, but disciplinary records certainly are.
The only redeeming thing about Travon’s untimely demise is the people he might have killed are still alive and the children he would have sired have not been conceived.
George Zimmerman did more of a public service than one sees at the surface.
Flame suit on...
Maybe that same prosecution team should be assigned to get Barry’s records!!!
No no! The poor lad was writing "Win the Future!" he was obviously planning to volunteer for the Obama 2012 campaign!
Heh! Great minds think alike! :-)
It's like the article said -- an acronym for an obscenity.
Good. I hope the defense goes full OJ on this ridiculous prosecution.
The prosecution is doing what Johnnie Cochran insisted the OJ prosecutors were doing: trying to railroad a black man.
Judge will have to release records to defense team. If not, any conviction will be overturned on appeal because they denied discovery
The Black Racists will whine about this, but this is not an unusual type of request, especially when there is already credible evidence that Martin had disciplinary issues at school
Of course they are. By simply being there. So far it appears the forensics will prove whom the true aggressor is. And then there's the 911 recording telling GZ to report back on what TM was doing. Tough to do if you leave the scene.
"The courts are disgusting on this one."
Agreed.
Naturally. after all, he could have been hussein’s son.
The good news:
Trayvon Martin’school records have been subpoenaed by the defense:

The bad news:
“In the case of Trayvon Martins school records, they are protected and will NOT be part of the public record, without appropriate court order.”
But I’m sure the crack journalists at the OS will make sure that we all get to see them.
Here are a couple of photos of recent photos of Trayvon Martin . . . taken 9 days before his death.


Trayvon was 511 and weighed 158#. George was 58 and weighed 204#. Who was the big guy?
Trayvon had two tattoos, none were on his face. One tattoo, on his wrist, was his mothers name.
George has two tattoos. One tattoo, on his chest, is the name of his cousin who has accused him of sexual assault: CHRISTINA. Some here will argue that he really meant to have his grandmothers name there but he is a poor speller and has ADHD, thus he got it wrong.
thanks for the reply, not even close to picture I was sent
Did ya hear that Alicia Martin’s nickname is “Cat”? There goes the ‘dad was a gang member’ theory ....

Only Zimmerman's grades were released - and they were far from impressive. I'd like to see all his records. Why was he shipped off to Florida as soon as he got out of high school?
And I'd like to see Zimmerman's . . . but ooops, they didn't do one. He's on a heavy-duty drug cocktail of uppers and downers . . . was he abusing his meds?
And you know that was taken 9 days before his death how???
Who was the big guy?
The ME measured TM at 5'11" LONG not tall. There is shrinkage post mortem which means that he was taller than 5'11" when he was puttin the "whupaz" on his victim, probably closer to 6'2".
Zimmerman was an out of shape guy - I’m 5’8”, and I’m overweight at 175. At 200+...I’d be heavy, but not in a good way.
Interesting posting history you got there... Nothing from October 2005 until you re-appeared in April 2012 to play apologist for the late unlamented Trayvon.
Maybe the ME stated he was 5'11" long because he was on a slab, not standing?
Are you implying his bones shrank after he died???
. . . Give me a break . . .Be sure to watch Dr. Phil on Monday. Zimmerman's good buddy Mark Osternman will be on.
Did you also work as a bouncer?
How convenient.
That "CaT" tattoo on his neck looked quite old and faded. Take another look at it. It is/was older than their relationship.
If they equate, then why not use "tall"??? Why write "long"???
Are you implying his bones shrank after he died???
Bones don't -- but muscles do contract post mortem.
And that's the long and short of it.
Well, then, post the picture you have of the big-guy covered in tats, even on his face.
The long and short of it is that Georgie should have kept his a$$ in his truck instead of trying to prevent another a$$hole from getting away!
Come on.....you photo-shopped the tattoos and needle marks out and added that cute little girl in place of his AK.
then Benjamin Crump and his associates would not have had the opportunity for another notorious scam or be facing obstruction of justice charges for their tampering with evidence in this case.
So we know that Trayvon was into "Knockouts." "Extreme Fighting," "Gang-Banging," had drugs in his system, was tattooed, had gold grillwork, has a long Twitter history as "No Limits Nigga," etc. etc. None of which may effect the jury, which may be an OJ-type jury.
My bet? This goes away after the election. The Mombasa MF wins, Zimmerman goes up on Federal Civil Rights charges. Milquetoast Mitt takes the match, (for which the none-too-swift democrat Zimmerman had better be praying) it could just all go away.
“how will they get his school records?? we can’t even get obamas records”
Obama said that Travon could have been his son, so maybe the discovery state can ask for the records of both Barry and Travon.
Do the Black Panthers do Cat Tats?

Is that a gang sign?
