EXCERPTS

In Trayvon’s case, (Parks & Crump) alerted the news media more quickly. They phoned the Rev. Al Sharpton almost instantly, and organized marches with local civil rights activists. They also started pressing for federal involvement and alleging a cover-up from the get-go.

“In court, you have the jury,” Crump says. “Our job is to get the case to a jury. We need to fight first in the court of public opinion. The jury is the American people.

Wow. The Parks and Crump lawyer team have the ear of the White House? I’m surprised they admitted it.

The lawyers want a special prosecutor (especially a friendly to their cause) because they want an arrest. They realize the chance of an arrest with a grand jury is far less given the evidence that’s coming out.

Once they get an arrest, then a civil suit is possible. That’s where the money is.

Always follow the money.
