You actually said the Martins have no reason to lie?You are naive arent you. Most of the stuff released to the public was through them and the media had to apologize for being wrong!!!!! There main goal was to mislead the press in order to gain public support. Come on really??????
Because the zimmerman camp has an incentive to lie and mislead. The Martins don't have that incentive. They have already lost even if Zimmerman is convicted. He and his people have much more reason to lie and mislead.

The parents of slain teen Trayvon Martin took their quest for justice to Capitol Hill today, attending a forum on racial profiling and hate crimes and drawing attention to their son’s killing that occurred more than a month ago.
Trayvon's family and their supporters maintain that Zimmerman deemed Trayvon "suspicious" because the teen was black and wearing a hoodie.
Sponsored by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the rally focused on the need to change racial profiling and crime. Residents said it's clear the fight is far from over.
(AP) WASHINGTON - Trayvon Martin’s parents expressed relief Wednesday over a special prosecutor’s decision to charge the man responsible for the 17-year-old’s death. Martin’s mother said if she could speak directly to George Zimmerman, she would allow him a chance to say he is sorry for what happened.
Sybrina Fulton, Trayvon Martin's mother, told the Today show Thursday morning that she believes her son's murder was an "accident," but later retracted her statement on MSNBC this afternoon.
In an interview with the Today show's Ann Curry, Fulton had said, "I believe it was an accident. I believe that it just got out of control and (Zimmerman) couldn’t turn the clock back."
Attorneys for Martin's family said it wasn't until weeks later, when Tracy Martin, Trayvon's father, was looking through the teen's cell phone bill that he noticed the timing of the last call. The family and their attorneys then contacted Trayvon's girlfriend and heard her account of the night. Lawyer Benjamin Crump, who represents the family, recorded an interview with the girl and provided it with Martin's cell phone records to federal authorities, who by then had joined the investigation.
Though early on in the investigation police asked for anyone with information related to the shooting to come forward, Martin's friend did not — because she was highly emotional, Martin's mother told TODAY Wednesday.
TODAY
Trayvon Martin, 17, was killed while visiting a family friend in a Florida gated community.
“She was distraught because of the situation that happened with Trayvon and the fact that she was on the phone with him right before the incident occurred,’’ Sybrina Fulton, told Matt Lauer. “She was hospitalized. She also mentioned to us that she had feelings for Trayvon, so it hurt her dearly to know that he had passed away.’’
Family attorney Ben Crump argued that though the call was not recorded, the girl's account is not hearsay.
“(Zimmerman) was reacting to the color of his skin,’’ Martin’s mother, Sybrina Fulton, told Matt Lauer on Monday. “He committed no crime. My son wasn’t doing anything but walking on the sidewalk, and I just don’t understand why this situation got out of control.’’

Why did you dismiss the neighbors comments about how he basically had every right to be suspicious of Trayvon because young black males have committed crimes in the neighborhood. Why did you dismiss her comments. It seems if you were a black male in that neighborhood you were profiled, even by the nice lady who made the comments to rueters, who was black. Yet you seem to dismiss her claims about the neighborhoods attitude toward young black males. HMMMMM.

It told you my connection, I answered your question. My background has been stated in this post in the past. You should have kept up. Like I did. You know, like I know how you claim to be a police officer. I know that becuase I kept up with conversation. I don't have to justify my credentials to you to comment on an internet discussion board, Officer. But like I stated, Ive said my 'background' before. You just didn't care enough about me to retain that info

He was gunned down. The bullet hole in his chest is the proof of that. Sorry, I know how you like to ignore evidence. Bullet in the chest from Zimmermans gun means Zimmerman gunned him down. Sorry if you don't like the wording, sometimes the truth is unpleasant.

No i have not tried and convicted Martin, I am trying and convicting Zimmerman as the evidence comes out. Did you mean Zimmerman? another typo I see.

Ive never 'demanded' your background. Ive only attacked your own words with your own words to show your false statements. That is not attacking you.

I answered you question, officer, how was I to know you wanted different information? Say what you mean not what you are implying.

(CNN) -- George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer accused of wrongly killing Trayvon Martin, will not immediately have to turn over donations to his website, a Florida judge said Friday.
Zimmerman collected about $204,000 in donations through the website, but did not disclose the contributions during his bond hearing last week, according to Zimmerman's attorney, Mark O'Mara.
Assistant State Attorney Bernie de la Rionda asked Judge Kenneth Lester Jr. to increase Zimmerman's $150,000 bond. But the judge said he would delay ruling on the request, in part because he does not know if he has the authority to do so.

I doubt if they will increase the bail but I wouldn't be surprised if he was fined or tagged with some other minor offense for, what amounts to, perjury. His attorneys should be held accountable for the undisclosed funds.
