Have you ever listened to Love Line with Dr. Drew and Adam Corolla?
They did this piece where they would read about a crime and you had to guess where the crime took place, but you could only choose between Germany and Florida. Florida is just whacky!!
I really blame the prosecutor. They didn't do their job well, and I cannot help thinking it was a result of them not wanting to bring the case to begin with. It's too bad Zimmerman has no money and a civil suit would be pointless.

Can the family still file a civil suit against Zimmerman? Didn't he get lots of $$$ from donors? The donated money could have been earmarked for his defense, though. I don't know.
I'm shocked it came back as fast as it did, but I can't say I am shocked he wasn't found guilty. There were just too many holes and it was uphill battle for prosecutors.

Probably free. One, they could do it contingency, but two, lawyers wold,line up to do it for free. I would.

Nope. They already brought and dropped their civil suit.

I hope the Martin family comes forward and pleads for people to behave. They've just had the carpet jerked out from underneath them and I don't know if it would help but I hope they ask for peace.
I think that the murder charge was a stretch legally, but it seemed manslaughter was a real possibility. I mean, I don't understand how you can provoke a confrontation against direct police advisement and then claim self defense for shooting an unarmed teenager. I'm starting to think that this country is going backwards.
I can't even comprehend this. He shot a young man dead, who was not even armed. Like another poster said, legal system failure. I'm actually worried about riots now.

Yep. It amazes me they didn't find him guilty of manslaughter.
People are so polarized over this. My FB is awful right now.
