What evidence do you have that is all that he was doing?
What is the evidence that he was not simply walking home when GZ targeted him?

That's why there are so many f***ed-up kids. Kicking out creates a bigger problem and passes it on to someone else.

I don't know that this is what happened here. Probably no one does. I am just posing the question.

If you prefer to say "sending" that is fine, I can accept that terminology.

The question is why did she send him to live with his father.

I was sent to stay with my Uncle on his farm for a few weeks, but was allowed to come home when ever I wanted. Alas I liked the farm.

Really? Do you really believe that? Sure, TM is dead and that is tragic. Only time will tell if Zimmerman GZ "won." I would venture to say his life is all but over.

Why not? And he was just visiting. He had to return to Miami after his expulsion finished.

He was on drugs. His liver showed damage from doing them.

According to the autopsy report, Martin’s liver showed damage consistent with DXM abuse.

But, but, but....how can this be? The media said Trayvon was an innocent little angel....a saint.

He wasn't a saint and there is absolute NO evidence of this drug in his system. Read the autopsy report.

Again how much of this "Lean" stuff was found in his system? Zero.
You've got other people on other threads howling about how it's Jolly Ranchers, tea and codeine, or "Drank" that TM was imbibing, yet autopsy reports there was nothing in his system except for a trace of pot. A trace, that he could have done weeks ago prior to the incident.
