Not Mr. Zimmerman. . .
I realize she was left with an impossible task. With Jessie & Al, the Black KKK and the minions that lapped up every lie they heard.
She was left with very little choice.
She could have asked for a grand jury. If they came back with no bill the agitators would have demanded to know who the grand jury was and put bounties on their heads. Grand juries are secret and their identities are kept secret. Somebody would have leaked their ID's.
So she choose not to use a grand jury.
In my humble opinion she did Mr. Zimmerman a favor charging him with 2nd degree (1st Degree requires a grand jury) murder.
Since he was probably acting in self defense it should be easy to either get a complete not guilty or a hung jury.
If she had charged him with manslaughter it would be easier to convict him, but if what I have heard is true he should get off.
Of course I wasn't there and have said all along I want people testifying to be under oath. Not on a TV camera. Under oath doesn't keep someone from lying but most don't lie under oath.

This is exactly what I posted on another FR thread. Zimm’s brother was saying she may have charged with 2nd * murder so he could plead down to say manslaughter. But remember this is the chick that tried a 12-year old as an adult for murder. Seems like she is swinging for the fences.

Baloney. Mob rule is not a choice, it's a coward's way out.

The truth will come out to the dismay of the very people who tried to hang this man. They will not be happy until his head is on a pike, and even if he is found innocent, the damage will already have been done; even after the riots are over. Zimmerman ought better think about moving to Israel-—safer there than the USA will ever be-—after Holder and his NBPampersParty terrorists get through with him and anyone who knew him-—even the ones Spike Lee got wrong.
