It was the state attorney's office, not local authorities

so should you, so should I, and so should jon benet ramsey, but that doesn't always happen, so who's falling down on the job? that is why the framers made the 2nd Amendment. for you to protect your own life. So go tell the nearest gang banger that they don't have the right to threaten or take your life.

He won't be, there will be a trial most likely and the courts will decide what happened. Zimmerman will get to plead his case, but Trayvon won't.

not quite. the courts won't decide unless zimmerman requests a bench trial. Otherwise the people will decide what happened. Personally, if I was zimmerman right now i'd be asking for a bench trial since all the racist anti gun liberals have already convicted him.

Shouldn't someone who shot another at close range, while they were on top of them, in fact, according to Zimmerman, have more blood splatter on them?

not with a 9 mm. the round usually ends up what we call a 'through and through', because the weight and shape of the round tends to end up going right through the body. very little blood splatter. the larger and heavier rounds that tend to mushroom and/or break up are what leaves splatter.[/QUOTE]

So he says. But as you and the others keep saying, we don't have all the facts.

then why do you and the other racists on here continue claiming he's guilty?

Do you believe a person must answer someone who follows them and asks them a question, yes or no?

no, I don't. but I also don't believe that someone following me and asking me questions gives me the right to punch said asker. they might need it, mind you, but it doesn't give me the right to do it.

STY - the audio at minimum shows that he sought & provoked the confrontation, and also has plenty in the way of motive. It may not be murder 1, but he's guilty of a crime.

and again, onceler, anyone can walk up to anyone else and ask a question, ask who they are, ask why they are there. that person doesn't have to answer, but confronting someone to ask a question is not a crime. now, if you have some SOLID proof that zimmerman provoked martin in to punching him, i'd be happy to see it.

At minimum, there should be a charge of manslaughter. At minimum.

You've heard the audio, I assume.

that is not enough to convict him of manslaughter. the audio did not play during the altercation. how do you exactly what occurred right before and during the altercation? don't forget...it is beyond a reasonable doubt and the audio alone is not enough.

the audio is irrelevant, however, a charge of manslaughter MIGHT be warranted if the authorities can piece the evidence together to warrant it. here is the definition of manslaughter in florida....

Definition of Manslaughter

The crime of Manslaughter can be committed in one of three ways, either by:

Manslaughter by Act: Committing an act that was neither excusable, nor justified that resulted in the death of another person.
Manslaughter by Procurement: Persuading, inducing, or encouraging another person to commit an act that resulted in the death of another person.
Manslaughter by Culpable Negligence: Engaging in “Culpably Negligent” conduct that resulted in the death of another person.

that might be the only way to charge him, but right now i'm with the prosecutor in thinking that there isn't enough evidence to convict.

Your opinion, I was on the band wagon fr an investigation and in my opinion it seems Zimmerman should have a trial, the self defense angle doesn't seem to apply.

And what proof do you have that it wouldn't apply, or is it just a FEELING?

And you promote another lie.
The audio shows that he saw Martin and reported it. Martin left the area and Zimmerman tried to follow him. Martin eluded Zimmerman, so Zimmerman was returning to his car. Martin CONFRONTED Zimmerman and according to the witness, provoked the confrontation.
