The Fix Was In!
Does ANYONE actually think the authorities in Sanford, FL., WANTED to prosecute George Zimmerman for murdering Trayvon Martin? Or, that having indicted him, they WANTED to convict him?
They released him the night of the killing.
They only indicted him when national outrage rose to a crescendo-pitch of outrage.
They undermined their own prosecution at virtually every turn.
The Judge was hand-selected, a political hack.
The prosecution's summary sounded like they were prosecuting a jay-walking offense.
The jury was packed, and apparently voir dire and/or "jury supervision" was a fuukin joke, since at least one juror was CLEARLY sympathetic with the killer from the start, was planning a book-deal, and was sharing her insights with her husband DURING sequestration.
Almost all of which--except the jury stuff--was technically "legal."
Another example of "American Injustice."

Meanwhile, Zimmerman Jurors Under Scrutiny As Sheriff's Office Admits To Unsupervised Visits - News One ‎ 

In a disturbing interview on AC360, during which Zimmerman juror B37 referred to killer George Zimmerman, 29, as “George,” admitted to  writing a book with her lawyer husband — a deal that has disappeared due to the social activism of Twitter user @MoreandAgain — and basically said that she believed “George’s” version of events.

Though 4 other Zimmerman jurors issued a statement distanced themselves from the insensitive and problematic statements made during the interview, Florida’s WFTV has discovered that jurors spent hours of alone time with family that could have impacted the verdict.
WFTV reports:

Channel 9′s Kathi Belich confirmed the jurors were left unsupervised with guests at times, which WFTV legal analyst Bill Sheaffer said is more than enough time for a member to have said something that could have influenced a juror and possibly impacted the verdict.
The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office said Judge Debra Nelson allowed jurors generally no more than two hours of alone time with visitors once a week.
Nelson didn’t decide until three days into the trial to sequester the jury after potential jurors voiced concerns about their privacy and safety.
Channel 9 obtained the agreement the judge had all of the jurors’ visitors sign in which they agreed “the case or anything even remotely related to the case must not be talked about.”
Sheaffer said allowing sequestered jurors to have unsupervised visits invites criticism and questions over the integrity of the verdict.
“It only takes two seconds for an inappropriate comment to be made to a juror by a family member inadvertently or otherwise to possibly affect the verdict, how they look at the case,” Sheaffer said.
