Just because that's all they were given, doesn't justify arriving at a verdict supporting them.

The prosecution in this case acted to let the lies lie on the jury.

The jury obeyed.

Kind of a Pontius Pilate kind of thing.
The prosecution went with what the police believed to be true.

Your speculation as to what happened that night is meaningless, because it is just conjecture, no one actually knows what happened and The People have a higher bar to reach then just speculation.
No speculation is needed.

There's no law requiring a jury to acquit a killer who lied to the police about the killing.

Get real!

That would be Obama using Holder to further "investigate" an acquitted GZ to further try him till a more desirable outcome is achieved.

He says what he's told to say.

He's a government employee.

Lol

He was found not guilt because the people were not able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he killed TM while not acting in self defense.

There's no law that requires the jury to find someone guilty when they believe s/he is guilty either.

It's flawed because the jurors allowed a man who killed a teenager to walk free and now he's afraid of "vigilantes that will be out to get him". If that isn't flawed, I don't know what is and I'd REALLY hate to see what you considered a flaw.

You really don't have a clue as to the particulars of this case - that's apparent.
No, I do. The only thing that needs to be apparent is the fact that a killer gets to walk free and a teenager is still dead, but by all means continue supporting the murderer.

But by all means, continue to be ignorant.

Dat true.

It is the 4th branch of our Constitution's check and balance system.

Maybe you have some evidence that the police were not able to provide the prosecution to be presented at trial that caused you to form that conclusion?

Because the jurors who weighed the evidence found him not guilty. I trust the decision made by 6 people who weighed the evidence then your gut.
