In this stunning work of investigative journalism, filmmaker Joel Gilbert uncovers the true story of the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, a case that divided America. By examining Trayvon’s 750-page cell phone records, Gilbert discovers that the key witness for the prosecution of George Zimmerman, the plus-sized 18-year-old Rachel Jeantel, was a fraud. It was in fact a different girl who was on the phone with Trayvon just before he was shot. She was the 16-year-old named "Diamond" whose recorded conversation with attorney Benjamin Crump ignited the public, swayed President Obama, and provoked the nation's media to demand Zimmerman's arrest.

The incident that kicked off the endless anti-police, anti-white media campaign, leading to a major spike in lawlessness and ghetto homicides during Obama's second term, the Trayvon hoax probably resulted in more deaths of young black men than any other single event in American history.

The injustice that a good & decent samaritan like George Zimmerman had to suffer through was an absolute outrage. George Z. volunteered his own time to mentor young black men whose own fathers had abandoned them. The guy was a stand up citizen.

It always amazes me what the mainstream media chooses to leave out of their reporting. The MSM in America is a full-fledged propaganda machine and the Trayvon-Zimmerman scandal was a perfect example of that.

Stand up citizen? Maybe I've read fake news but since Zimmerman has been let go & free I've seen several news articles where he's gotten in more trouble.

Now do I think he should be in a prison for life or many years? Based off of what I think happened no. I think this was basically a result of 2 hot heads getting into each others business instead of remaining cool. I think Trayvon probably did attack Zimmerman because Zimmerman was coming after Trayvon in a controlling way when he probably had no business doing so.

He gets in trouble with family members and girlfriends. He's great at helping strangers.

Zimmerman still had no business playing cop when he wasn't one. Also, Zimmerman has been in and out of jail since being acquitted. He needs to go sit his ass down somewhere. Anywhere.

i agree. I wonder if the family sued the residential property for not reprimanding Zimmerman for pretending to be a unauthorized security patrol person. (was he official or not?)

Zimmerman was the stereotypical neighborhood watch that Hollywood makes fun of. O wanna be cop that was rejected. Anger and control issues. He probably would make a good mall cop. LOL. Guys like Zimmerman are why I would never live in a gated community.

He wasn't playing cop, he was fulfilling his duties as a neighborhood watchman, trying to determine the location of a suspicious person he saw, when that person attacked him, breaking his nose and smashing his head on the pavement, forcing him to use lethal force in self-defense.
