Not guilty on either 2nd degree or manslaughter

Now time to see if all the social media hype about the NBPP taking the violence and rioting to "Whitey's neighborhood" is true

Still deliberating on the manslaughter charge...

I found the following post on another forum:

Mark O'Mara handed it to the media: "Two systems failed George Zimmerman. One - the media. You - the media - failed George Zimmerman. You took a story, a story that was fed to you, and you ran with it."

O'Mara then went on to say the Prosecution failed - they brought a charge they could never find guilty on to court.

The prosecution had no choice. Remember, no charges were even filed on Zimmerman for 46 days; until political pressure from high places made a political show trial mandatory.

True, but sometime you just have to say, "No."

OTOH, the evil conspiracy idea cloud above my head says,

Yeah, they prosecuted him, but did a half job so he could get off.

Zimmerman is not guilty on all counts based upon the trial evidence. Hopefully, the jury will follow proper procedure and vote based upon the evidence presented and nothing more.

I hope he's acquitted.

If he's not, I think an appeal will be granted based upon the judges egregious blunders. Zimm will be out on bail and disappear from the spotlight. The appeal wont be heard for a long time, and be held somewhere 5 miles from the Canadian border, where he will legally win back his life. The finding will be announced during some future econo/socio/politico distraction disguised as actual news VIA fast-scrolling information ticker so as not to cause any unrest amongst the natives (read FL natives - of the state, mind you).

Kinda like the "retirement" of Big Sis has gone down...nothing to see here, move along...

Zimmerman will still have to face civil court for wrongful death. Apparently just because a court of law finds you innocent, it doesn't mean you don't have to pay.
Zimmerman's life is over as he knew it.

Now the NAACP is exploring pressing Federal charges. I guess they don't hunt down, kill, and prosecute their own.

So, have the riots in Oakland started yet?

That is usually where the bottom feeders of our society start destroying stuff.

Is it not true that some states that have implemented Castle Doctrine and Stand Your Ground laws also have provisions to hold the person found innocent in criminal court immune from civil lawsuits filed on behalf of the assailant?

If that is provided for in Florida's law, I'm wondering if that could automatically protect Zimmerman from further prosecution by the Justice Department.

Looks right, but one would need to read the annotated cases to get a better idea legally. Also, I think there would have to be a specific finding in the case at hand, not elsewhere in another case. The standard would be "more likely than not as opposed to "beyond a reasonable doubt". Good post!
