The judge in the Trayvon Martin case officially recused herself today. The next judge also passed on the case as Zimmerman's attorney is his child's godfather. So the case fell to Judge Kenneth Lester, Jr..
Quote:
Lester, 58, who has a reputation for keeping things moving and doling out tough sentences, will preside over Zimmerman’s bond hearing slated for Friday.
Also, Zimmerman's friend claims Zimmerman has graphic photos of his face showing his injuries:
Quote:
“He was beaten to a bloody pulp that night, and he’s lucky to be alive. There’s proof of that,” the friend of Zimmerman said.
“He took the pictures himself...to protect himself. He knew they would come back for him. He had a good idea this wasn’t over. He’s not a dumb man.” . .
“You (the media) are going to feel pretty stupid when you see them,” he said. “Soon enough everyone will see the damage this kid did to his head. A lot of people are going to have egg on their faces.
“Once the judge gets a look at these pictures he will dismiss this case and all you can crawl back into your holes,” he told a News reporter.
If the part about the pictures is true, it will be yet another twist in this tragic case. I took a media ethics class in college that covered some real life events and the media coverage. I have a feeling this case will make it into the future text books for examination.
It would be great if everyone would let the legal process unfold and let the system determine if Zimmerman is guilty or not guilty based only on the available evidence. This has become a media circus with so called experts on both sides already having convicted or set him free. The evidence and the judge/jury are the only things that should truly matter.
It will not matter if Zimmerman is proven to be innocent of murder when this is over. Someone in the black community will kill him anyway to make a name for themselves.

Yes, just like those cops who beat Rodney King were hunted down and killed by revenge-seeking blacks.
I haven't seen anything about "elites" in any articles I've read about the whole fiasco.

Truth is often stranger than fiction. Otherwise, we wouldn't get so many kicks out of weird news stories.
