Special prosecutor Angela Corey has announced that she will not use a grand jury to decide whether or not indict
George Zimmerman, the man who fatally shot
Trayvon Martin, ABC News reports. She says a grand jury will not be necessary in making the decision and assures the public, "The decision should not be considered a factor in the final determination of the case."
Analysts are calling Corey's decision "bold" and "shocking" because grand juries can be used as political cover in controversial cases. Prosecutors can shift the burden of the decision (in this case, whether or not to indict Zimmerman) onto the jury to avoid public scrutiny. Some suspect the reason she bypassed a grand jury in the George Zimmerman / Trayvon Martin case was to block racial agendas that have developed around the case in either direction. But was it the right move?
You want to know what REAL CRIMINAL CHARGES that present a threat look like?
-Felony assault of a police officer
-Domestic abuse charges
-Providing ILLEGAL SECURITY for ILLEGAL PARTIES, that provided drugs & alcohol to minors
-Contributing to the delenqucy of a minor by providing alcohol to a minor
While not criminal here is what a violent past that presents a threat looks like:
-Fired from job as security job because the person is unstable, aggressive and a liability to the business
-Throwing a woman across the room and spraining her ankle in a fit of unwarranted rage
-Court ordered anger management classes
Who is this criminally violent person you ask with all of this in their background????
Why one Mr. G. Zimmerman aka JEYKLL & HYDE!!!!

Hey the black Panthers are just soliciting to "stand their ground." If murdering black people is OK in Florida, shouldn't they all feel threatened?
You know damn well if Zimmerman were black and that kid were white he'd be in jail, you wouldn't be calling for a "fair" anything for him, Fox News wouldn't be raising a fund for him --instead they'd be calling for the death penalty. Anyone who doesn't see this as racist... is racist.
Try sharing your espouse defensive with this family. I guess your case we all must be racist.

GET A CLUE, one prejudice one! Trayvon could have legally joined the US MILITARY w/o any waivers!!! GET A CLUE!!!
It was a smart and ballsy decision to diffuse some of the unwarranted tension before she announces that Zimmerman acted fully within his rights, Florida law and no charges will be filed.
2) He was not a member of any neighborhood watch program and was not bound to any set of rules.
3) He was perfectly within his rights to follow and maintain visual contact with the person he was reporting as suspicious to law enforcement.
Grab a clue and try again.
2. oh so he does not have to follow rules why? he self appointed watch captin which means yes he would have to follow rules so me where it state he does not need to.
3. martin had a right to defend himself and walk in the area.
get common sense.
If he had simply obeyed those guidelines, Zimmerman would be as anonymous today as he was before the night of Feb. 26, when he shot Martin dead. An attorney for Martin's family has questioned whether the teenager even knew that Zimmerman was a neighborhood watch member.
Zimmerman was NOT a part of any sanctioned neighborhood watch, had never taken any courses, classes, signed up for any formal instruction and was NOT bound to any manual or set of rules no matter how many times you spew the lie.
He was operating under the same rights afforded everyone under the Constitution of the USA, Federal, State and local laws.
NOWHERE in the USA does a person have the right to attack and beat someone, unprovoked, merely because they were making a phone call, reporting your suspicious behavior to police.
A second 911 caller backs this up by saying the attacker is on top wearing white.
At no time was Zimmerman hunting anyone and the dispatcher never tells him to stop, merely tells him that "We don't need you to do that".
If little Tray was so terrified, he had 3 minutes to run 100 yards between when Zimmerman looses sight of him and the gunshot is heard on the 911 call. He had enough time to run the entire perimeter of the complex.
No, he was pissed that Zimmerman dropped the dime on him, waited until he got off the phone with police and made the mistake of attacking someone who was packing heat. End of story.
It's all captured on his 4 minute call.
