New evidence: Photo of Trayvon Martin's body, Zimmerman's school records released
The Orlando Sentinel ^ | August 9, 2012 | Weiner and Stutzman

Posted on 08/09/2012 12:06:54 PM PDT by VeniVidiVici

Special Prosecutor Angela Corey's office today released 76 new pages of evidence in the George Zimmerman second-degree murder case, including dozens of pages of records the state did not intend to make public.

The new documents included a grainy photo depicting 17-year-old Trayvon Martin's body, George Zimmerman's school records, from high school and Seminole State College, and his application for the Seminole County sheriff's Citizens Law Enforcement Academy.

School records why? Is Zimmerman running for POTUS?

Angela can't come up with any relevant evidence so it's ad hominem time.`

Usually reliable sources have stated that as a zygote Zimmerman exhibited unusually erratic behavior.

It's not if this statement is true or not - it is the seriousness of the charge.

Are we going to be able to wrap up this Trayvon debacle by September so we have a month to stew before the elections?

Three observations:

(1) They definitely should discuss Zimmerman's school transcripts - the public has a right to inspect the transcripts of a person of such public importance as George Zimmerman, right Sentinel?

(2) Everything "accidentally" leaked by the prosecution just happens to taint the jury pool against Zimmerman. None of Martin's criminal records or (I'm sure exemplary) educational records were leaked, were they?

(3) "Zimmerman shot Trayvon" - interesting phrasing. Not "George shot Trayvon" or "Zimmerman shot Martin."

Formal distance for George Zimmerman, easy familiarity for Trayvon Martin.

If they released a crime scene photo of the body they just blew their case, IMO.

Zimmerman . . . failed an astronomy class in the fall of 2011 . . . placed on academic probation the summer of 2011 because his grade-point average dropped below 2.0, a C average . . . In the fall of 2009, he got a C in "Evil Minds – Violent Predators." He also earned a D in "Intro To Criminal Justice."

Oh dear, he was not a strong student! Well, that bombshell completely reverses my opinion on whether Zimmerman had a right to shoot the thug who was beating him to death.

We know more about George Zimmerman than we do about Obama.

You left out a word:

Deliberately shabby work by the prosecutor’s office.

Prosecutors did not intend to distribute the photo of Trayvon's body, nor Zimmerman educational records, a spokeswoman for Corey said.

The Orlando Sentinel is not publishing the photo of the teen's body.

But you couldn't resist releasing his educational records, could you???

So we can now expect the school records of George Zimmerman’s attacker to be released, too, right?
