IMO, the prosecutor, by charging Zimmerman w/2degree murder, gave the defense a better than 50/50 chance of having the case tossed. The burden of proof will require the State to convince a jury that Zimmerman acted with a depraved mind, *and* that (as per the Castle Doctrine) he didn't feel as though his life was in danger. That is quite a legal hill to climb. Had they went with manslaughter or homicide, their chances of a conviction would have jumped up considerably.

If I lived in FL, I'd be preparing myself for a Rodney King-like response to an acquittal. It appears the fuse is about to be lit.

Had a case here about two years ago where a liquor store guy knew the two black men in his store shoplifted from him before, they did so again, ran, he chased with arms, put a shot into the car they were in hit one in the jaw, bullet continued into buddies leg (couldn't have done too much damage)and he was in jail for about three days or so, then released.

Big to do in the paper, he seemed to be in big trouble - I personally guessed he would get three years, one served or something like that.

Well as it turned out the kids were gang members, and it was all quietly dropped.

I was quite surprised. I thought the owner was cooked.

And the disposition was never, AFAIK, recorded in the paper.

Am sure it cost the owner at least 10,000 in legal fees.

And maybe be a $25000 donation to the kids jaw reconstruction.

Beats the heck out of a couple of years in jail.

I agree, I think he got ass lucky having the case break in his favor like it did.

Thanks for the reply - you have much more color than I do on these matters.

Zimmerman walks, this country will burn coast to coast.

White Americans will make sure he goes to prison.

I'm betting he walks. Had she filed manslaughter instead, I'd bet on a conviction. A typical over the top law enforcer having her strings pulled by the WH & the racial hucksters.

Arm up, load up.

They may be hoping he cops a plea.

Could be, but given the high profile of this thing, I'm not sure the Drivers of this mess would be satisfied with anything less than a few decades. If I were Zimmerman, I'd roll the dice if that was their "deal."
