Martin’s parents meet with Feds in Miami (Could charge Zimmerman with Federal hate-crime)

The parents of Trayvon Martin and their lawyer met with Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents at the U.S. attorney’s office in Miami Wednesday to discuss the status of a criminal civil-rights investigation into the fatal shooting of their teen-age son last year.

The federal investigation, which was opened while George Zimmerman faced prosecution for the death of the 17-year-old, gained renewed interest last month after Zimmerman was acquitted in state court of Martin’s killing in a Sanford gated community.

Prosecutors with the Justice Department’s criminal civil-rights section and FBI agents from Central Florida met with the late teen’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, and their attorney, Benjamin Crump, to bring the family up to speed, according to sources familiar with the meeting

Ok let me get this straight. Zimmerman took a black gal to the prom, tutored black kids, kept a black man from going to jail, and there is not one shred of evidence that he hates blacks or anyone else, but Holder's thugs could end up charging him with a HATE-CRIME!! I guess he does hate drug-crazed thugs that break into houses, but then again, he hates them no matter what color they might be. Holder is almost as sorry and crooked as his worthless POS boss. Gots to make dem black folks happen, so let's make up a "hate-crime" and destroy Zimmerman's life. Then make Al Sharpton Asst AG.

Shoot, shovel & shut up.

That should be the motto of every law-abiding non-protected minority from here on out, otherwise you wind up being Eric Holder/Nancy Grace fodder FOR-EV-VER.

Let’s not forget that they will also shop for a biased judge.

It’s rather chilling how the power of the state can be used to trample an individual.

Zimmerman faces legal jeopardy from a state trial that was borne out of political pressure and very little to do with legal merit.

Now, Zimmerman, despite a complete and full acquittal, may face the Feds. Everyone from Dershowitz on down say there’s no grounds for a Federal CR trial, but it may just happen anyway.

And let’s not forget the press, who are making it their business to give updates on Zimmerman’s whereabouts whenever he does so much as fail to wipe his now. They may as well be agents for the state with their endless unfair reporting.

Good grief!

IF the feds go forward with this I hope GZ casts a wide net and sues anyone and everyone involved. Malicious and political prosecutions must meet serious and expensive blow-back.

Martin calls Zimmerman a “crazy ass cracka”, jumps him, pummels him, pounds his head into the cement - FBI/Obama verdict: a hate crime by Zimmerman.

Sooner or later he will be charged. Will it be legal? no, but neither were the State Charges and besides, who will stop them?

On November 6, 2012, we[The United States of America] officially became a [with apologies to Banana Republics] a Banana Republic. George should be using this time to see if he can get to Peru. But since he is a decent individual [in my opinion, unlike those who want his scalp, both on and off this forum] and his wife still has to deal with the trumped up perjury charge against her, he won't. He will remain here to support her, thus sealing his own doom.

I think it will forever take down the image of “Saint” Trayvon.

Now I think we can safely call Martin’s parents black garbage.

I think the Martin family is getting the same line we all get from this regime with the status of the investigation into Fast and Furious, IRS and Benghazi. Don’t get me wrong, no case here, but they will put off the family until the clock runs out.

And black on white violence is not a hate crime. Got it.

Bad news for all those folks who voted for Obama to prove they weren’t racist. Apparent you can take a black girl to the prom, tutor black kids, keep a black man from going to jail, have to be asked what color criminals are when identifying them and vote for Obama but still be a racist. Being white (or Hispanic) makes you a racist and you can’t redeem yourself by any means.

This is vile Black Ku Klux Klan Racism to even consider charging Zimmerman....when Trayvon Martin was attacking Zimmerman based on his race and alleged sexual make-up

Absolute Evil
