He absolutely should not be retried. He has already been tried and found not guilty. What would you do if you were in fear for your life? In the dark, on a rainy night, would you have known this was a 17 year old boy inside that hoodie? He was not very 'visible' inside a hoodie, and was a big person...........bigger than George. Would you have taken the chance you wouldn't have been hurt? I wouldn't. I think George did what anyone would have done if they were in the very same circumstances.
The trial is over. I believe the Federal Government will not prosecute because they do not have the evidence to prove their case. I also believe Mr. Zimmerman's actions were morally wrong and stupid but according to our FLORIDA LAW, his actions were justified. The death of an innocent teen is a terrible loss. I can only hope this tragedy is never repeated.
I essentially agree with you, Olga. I just wrote a friend the following: "Despite the fact the Zimmerman news has been in our media for so long, I just don't know enough about the details to be able to form a judgment. It sounded as though the jury felt the same and felt without more proof of Z. culpability they had to acquit. What I don't like is that Z. did not heed what the 911 operator told him (to get away from the scene). It looks as if he wanted to take T. M. on. If so, just what outcome did he want? He may not have wanted to kill him. If so, who got physical first? Etc., etc. Too many unknowns."

ReplyDeleteI don't think he should be tried twice. Once by the state, and once by the federal government.
ReplyDeleteI think he should be tried again by the Feds. If they don't get him then there always is the world court. Unless ...
