Seriously?? If you had a parent or a relative in a position of influence would you not reach out to them to help you? If you want to get your foot in the door to a certain college, it's done all the time. If you want to get your foot into a certain company, it's done in the corporate world all the time. If you want to get off on charges, it's done in the court rooms all the time. I know if I was in a position and there was someone who could ease the way for me, I would certainly reach out, especially if it was a family member.
That isn't proof, you are claiming his father influenced the judicial system. That isn't a minor accusation and the burden of proof is on you. Granted, it is possible, but there isn't any reason to believe the system was influenced.

I'm saying it is quite POSSIBLE his father influenced the judicial system. It is LIKELY that his father may have influenced the judicial system. And IF he did, it's highly unlikely those involved would admit to it as they would have been involved.
Having police friends over the years, they would take it very personal if someone assaulted them. I guess that police officer was having a "good deed moment" and decided to drop the charges.
He did in fact assault an officer you say, why is he not charged with that crime or have a conviction for that crime? If there is evidence that he assaulted a police officer the DA can file charges at any time.
A coworker's tale of events is hearsay, termination paperwork or a management source is more credible.
You are either being obtuse or purposely oppositional for the sake of being oppositinoal.
In 2005, Zimmerman, then 20, was arrested and charged with “resisting officer with violence” and “battery of law enforcement officer,” both which are third-degree felonies. The charge was reduced to “resisting officer without violence” and then waived when he entered an alcohol education program. Contemporaneous accounts indicate he shoved an officer who was questioning a friend for alleged underage drinking at an Orange County bar.

No one is claiming to know what exctly transpired the night that he killed Martin,
Well, actually some are - but mostly the ones on the FREE ZIMMERMAN side:

It's pure politics and racism, otherwise he would be home with his family.

Seriously, you'd think some of these posters were THERE.

So...you have absolutely nothing aside from wild speculation-the exact same sort of speculation you were decrying just hours ago?
Duly noted.
