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.

Exactly. A good strategy for a prosecutor between a rock and a hard place.

Nothing less than hanging will satisfy blacks and white enablers.

It is going to be a long hot summer. This may light the fuse.

Perfect excuse for martial law when the cities begin to burn.

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.

Which may explain why that is the charge. Politically, the case has already been tried in the Press and the Persecutor was no doubt feeling the political heat as well as the cacophony of the "Race Baiting Poverty Pimps™" Jackscoon and his trusty sidekick Al.
