The lawyer for Trayvon Martin’s parents harshly criticized efforts by George Zimmerman’s attorneys to obtain the school records and Facebook information for the deceased 17-year-old high school student, saying they were irrelevant to the case.

“Zimmerman’s lawyers are attempting to assassinate Trayvon Martin’s character,” said Benjamin Crump, in an interview with BET.com. “Whatever Trayvon had on his Facebook page or whatever was in his school records have nothing to do with why Zimmerman shot him.”

I notice the MSM is not following this case, now that the polls are showing it a loser for the Obama campaign.

This is kinda like a urinalysis, if you don't have anything to hide, why not be forthcoming with the info?

Then why do you care if they are obtained or not?

Not only does Saint Trayvon look like Obama's, nonexistent son.
They want to lock his records away from public access just like Obama's.

“Zimmerman’s lawyers are attempting to assassinate Trayvon Martin’s character,”...“Whatever Trayvon had on his Facebook page or whatever was in his school records have nothing to do with why Zimmerman shot him.”

If the prosecution is going to going with the line that Treyvon was a good little boy like the AP pictures depict him as their case, then it's fair game for the defense to counter that with the truth that whatever this little boy was as a 5 year old, he evolved into a monster willing to bash a head against a sidewalk at 18.

Hey Ben, they have everything to do with why Trayvon Martin assaulted George Zimmerman that night and continued the assault relentlessly and mercilessly and would not stop until he was shot.

?? I thought it was already established that Martin was a violent drop-out who had been suspended repeatedly for criminal behavior.

Complaining about it is one thing, stopping it is another. Problem is even if these requests are granted you know who will not cover or advertise it, it'll be almost a complete media blackout........ No pun intended

But when civil rights leaders said they wanted equality, they really meant preferential treatment.

If the records show he was a ruthless little thug it has everything to do with the case. As far as I know defense lawyers still try to make rape victims out to be whores and all these liberals think it is just fine.

Yes, his "white guy problem" suddenly got a lot worse when it was in hot rotation.

” “Zimmerman’s lawyers are attempting to assassinate Trayvon Martin’s character,” “

Oh, you mean like the black leaders and the entire MSM tried to paint Zimmerman as a drooling, gun-toting fanatic? Like that ?

You better believe it that info helped their side, it would have been released immediately.

mama trey-von must really be concerned that the civil suit is going to be junk...

all the more reason for Zim to use the stand-your-ground and shield himself from further 'law'suits...
