They decided not to charge him
because they did not have
enough evidence that he did not
act in self defence.
If there was going to be a trial
it should of been done already
without the injustice that the mob rule
is impossing by the MSM lying, spinning,
and putting him on trial now, I will say it again
is not JUSTICE.. What happen here happens everyday
you just do not hear about them. Didn't hear about this
until a month later, and the martin family lawer
were trying to make a wrongful death suit
you know a $$$$ maker. Not any justice for treyvon.
So treyvon was only wearing a hoodie to case apartments looking
for trouble.>>?

Wrong. The lead investigator wanted to charge him....so don't say 'they' didn't want to charge him.....someone with power didn't want to charge him....but don't say 'they'....that is not true. People in the SPD absolutely wanted to charge him, and had they been allowed we wouldn't be here now.
Tell me why the State Attorney got involved in this case within hours? Give me another example of when the State Attorney overrules a lead investigator the very night of the crime?

I am not being emotional. And I'm getting really tired of that accusation. I have also not used the race issue.
I have stuck with the exact same position from the beginning.
Zimmerman's Vigilante actions of taking the law into his own hands created the situation that caused the death of a teenager. THIS IS FACT.
A teenager was pursued by a strange man - - in the dark - - in the rain - - with a gun - - with a van type vehicle - - for no reason other then walking. He told his girlfriend he was being followed by a strange man and that he was scared.
FEAR = ADRENALINE
Who created that Fear? Zimmerman. Who is responsible for that Fear? Zimmerman. Who is responsible for any action taken? Zimmerman.
This needs to go to trial.

Can I come shoot you in the chest while you sit on top of me with the same type of gun zimmerman used so we can see how much blood to expect? I have jacket almost identical to Zimmermans.......would you be up for that experiment?

Why Gunshot wounds may not bleed profusely.
Remember gunshot wounds are serious. Just because they may not bleed profusely it doesn't mean you are out of the woods yet.
- Entry and exit wounds are often small.
- Bullets rarely transect or sever major arteries and blood vessels
- Surrounding tissue acts as a barrier to blood loss
- As blood pressure falls, bleeding slows.
Not an expert but just because zimmerman did not have
blood all over him like a movie doesn not mean thing.
gun shot wounds may not bleed alot

The Grand Jury convenes sometime soon, this month I believe. The whole reason it's going before a Grand Jury now is because it was just blown off in the first place.
The GJ will decide whether there's enough evidence to proceed with charges. Hopefully, unlike the majority of the public following this case (regardless of who's side they're on), they'll put emotions aside and vote by the evidence.

The PD likes to charge anything and everything
the investigators wants to charge anything and everything
How do you know the lead did not GO to the state attornet?
Oh they did, so when the lead took the evidence they had
which is what they do, try to find evidence of a crime, then take there report
up the chain, it got looked over by the state attorney they decided it was not
enough evidence. If the state attorney overruled it just means there was not
enough evidence to charge...
Zimmerman was questioned and in the police department
for hours, HE DID GET arrested, to be tech he was held,
quetioned for 5 hours while the story was checked out.

Again, I never said video couldn't be used a evidence in the Supreme Court
but in a previous post you stated this
Example. Video tape is reliable but it is not allowed to used in the Supreme Court.
edit on 2-4-2012 by yeti101 because: (no reason given)
Where in that statement did I say it was not allowed to be used as EVIDENCE in the SC?
Video cameras are not allowed in the SC when it is in session....why do you think all we are getting from the healthcare debate is audio?
If you had read, and comprehended all the conversation up until that point you would realize I was making the point that video is reliable but is not allowed to be used in the SC ... i never said anything about being used as evidence in a case in front of the SC....it went to show just because something is not used in courts does not mean it isn't reliable.
Would you like to try again?

I'm 65 and I live in a hoodie. I have about 10 of them.
I'm near the ocean. Anyone who lives near the ocean or water knows how the weather changes. I never go anywhere without a hoodie.
Throw a tank and shorts on - - tie a hoodie around your waist.
If I was walking down the street at 7pm in the rain - - I would be wearing a hoodie.

I don't know where the bullet exactly entered...but if it did so from the back it's pretty much over for Zimmerman.
