Because it is a simple case under Florida Law, there is no cause for an arrest, which is why the Police(even thought one Detective wanted to arrest him) did not arrest him, they followed the LAW not their feelings.The SAO did not arrest him for the same reason.Now, after the ignorant ones got involved, screamed for a month etc A "special prosecutor" ignores the law and charges Zimmerman with second degree murder?? This lady did not take the case to the Grand Jury because she knew they would not indict him based on the evidence, because it supports Zimmerman.
Facts that have come to light supported by evidence:
Zimmerman was on the phone with the police, they told him to no longer follow Trayvon.Zimmerman says he turned around, and his behavior on the phone matches this story, as he talked to the dispatcher for over another minute and said he wanted to meet with the Police.This is consistent with Zimmerman walking back to his car as said, not pursuing Trayvon. Zimmerman did nothing that could be considered provocation.Moments after hanging up the phone, Zimmerman says Trayvon confronted him and attacked him.A witness saw this, called 911 and that is when the gunshot was heard during this call.The witness stated that Trayvon was on top of Zimmerman beating him.There are screams that are most likely Zimmerman as it is doubtful Trayvon was screaming for help while he is on top beating someone and slamming their head into the pavement.Trayvon was shot while on top of Zimmerman, one time.
Zimmerman suffered a broken nose and head injuries to the back of his head.Police report stated he had grass stains on his clothing.Between the physical evidence, and witness statement, Zimmerman's version is the truth of what happened.Make much more sense than the spin the media tried and some are still trying to put on this.
Now, no one being honest could say Zimmerman was not covered under stand your ground, clear cut case of self defense.This special prosecutor however is your typical self righteous prosecutor who thinks she is on some moral crusade, she forgets her job is to find the truth and uphold the law.I say this because she has a reputation in Florida not as a great lawyer, but more as a zealot.I read a statement of hers in some article where she says she only cares about the "victims", meaning to hell with the law and the rights of others, just those labeled the "victims", reminds me of Janet Reno in some ways as it turns out she put quite a few innocent people in jail who were later cleared.
The law protects Zimmerman but now this "SP" has allowed politics to enter into her decision and is abusing her power.Kind of like the casey anthony case, they sensed an easy win and went right for the throat with a 1st degree murder charge based on crappy evidence, politics influencing their decisions instead of rationality and the law.I believe it will work out for Zimmerman, but the travesty is he should not even have been arrested.Really a shame the ignorant masses can spur the government into action when its not needed.
