That's a whole lotta opinion masquerading as absolutes there, Master Conkling. You do understand verdicts themselves are opinions, subject to a host of personal biases, beliefs and experiences as all opinions are, yes? Hence the $10,000 per day jury consultant, paid to ferret out those most likely to glom onto a rigid God/Guns/Dudley Do Right/White Privilege/Scary Black worldview and least likely to care that it's all defense-driven smoke and mirrors.

Fact is,haters,Zimmerman walked free and has never been convicted of any criminal offence.
Ever.
Although there have been plenty of complaints that have been dropped when the people making them suddenly realised they'd have to stand up to scrutiny in court - and tell the truth.
Bleeding heart liberals can whine as much as they want but as of this day Zimmerman remains a free man.
And rightly so considering the pathetic prosecution case and outrageous intervention from that jerk Obama, who has managed the impossible and become even more unpopular than Dubya.

You didn't like the verdict because it didn't fit with your preconceptions about the case.
Luckily the jury considered the evidence and dealt in facts.
You don't like that ? Tough.
I'd rather have criminal justice than idiots on internet forums waving their pitchforks.

Sanford detective wanted manslaughter charge for George Zimmerman (+video) - CSMonitor.com
Serino told the FBI he was pressured by members of the Sanford Police Department to file charges despite his own belief that there wasn't enough evidence.

Maybe the Lake Mary PD is being pressured by the invisible hands of the Z family and their powerful allies to charge Apperson

Unless one considers his 2005 assault on a campus officer.

The other arrests post trial, they all should've followed through and had him see the inside of another courtroom as the defendant again.

GZ isn't done, he will offend again with more gusto than ever. He now owns an AK47 will he go ballistic?

Quite possibly.

“Serino did not believe he had enough evidence at the time to file charges,” the FBI report continues.



LiveLeak.com - FBI: Investigator Pressured to File Charges Against Zimmerman

Serino believed that “when Zimmerman saw Martin in a hoody, Zimmerman took it upon himself to view Martin as acting suspicious [sic].” The homicide investigator described Zimmerman to the FBI investigators as “overzealous” and as “having a little hero complex,”


Serino told the FBI agents that he felt he knew Zimmerman “fairly well,” and that the 28-year-old neighborhood watch volunteer didn’t want to be a cop, “because cops have a bad reputation and are bullies, but he wants to be a judge.” He described Zimmerman as a “soft guy,” but added that his story about the shooting seemed “scripted,” as if he knew “the right things to say to the police” — including claiming self-defense, and telling officers he feared for his life in the confrontation with Martin.

If you're going to play guessing games and make it sound as truth, then, maybe most of the victims were further victimized by him, by him telling them if they didn't drop the charges they would regret it. Since they knew how he is [in real life] they probably dropped their complaints out of fear.
App never filed a complaint based on the advice from a cop.
