Because of the election, the trial of George Zimmerman for the killing of Trayvon Martin, has been out of our focus. But not for long, as the trial is scheduled for June 10, and there will be pre-trial evidentiary hearings in April.
Here are some recent and not so recent headlines:
- Judge denies gag order in George Zimmerman murder case
- Judge: Zimmerman defense can go after Trayvon records, social media accounts
- Detective in George Zimmerman case turns to Jose Baez for legal help
- George Zimmerman to argue self-defense at hearing slated in April
- Zimmerman gets FBI files on Trayvon, more phone records

I wonder who George voted for.
According to brother Junior, George is a Dem and said he voted for Obama and convinced the rest of the family to vote Dem. I don’t believe a word of it. http://www.dothprotesttoomuch.com
“Prosecutorial over-reach” is the modus operandi of the American justice system it would seem.
Interesting interview with Conrad Black on this subject:

Doesn’t bode well for Mr Zimmerman.
This should be called the Zimmerman shooting case, not the “Zimmerman Murder Case.”
Maybe it should be called the big Zimmerman wonder. The mysterious metamorphosis of a burglary suspect into a “MMA-style” killer machine. The hunter as victim.
Not everyone has forgotten. I know we haven’t. http://www.dothprotesttoomuch.com The Truth DOES Have An Agenda and George Zimmerman is a lying murderer!
Isn’t Jose Baez a folk singer?
Troll alert.
Obama used his social justice system to punish Boeing for going to a right to work state. He uses Holder to attack states in defense of his non-enforcement on immigration, again tossing the race card. Obama was campaigning, using Trayvon to fire up his base.
Zimmerman was not charged till Obama made a national case of the issue. National media was again complicit, showing the innocent child picture of the Trayvon, not a tall football player, who texted about drugs and sex and assault on a bus driver, and had been expelled and found with burglary tools. Zimmerman was called white but was Hispanic, Spanish being his first language. Media clipped his comments and lied about inaudible words, transforming him into a racist.
A black congresswoman told the world that child Trayvon was hunted down like a rabid dog. Obama said if he had a son, he would look like Trayvon. The narrative was set … white man murders black child. It is axiomatic that the white is the villain that attacks blacks like Trayvon or Susan Rice. For two weeks the video caused Benghazi, and for weeks Trayvon was a 12 year old innocent child with Skittles. Objecting meant one was a racist.
Obama used Zimmerman as a campaign tool, dragging bin Laden and Trayvon bodies around on his campaign trail. His messaging trumps justice every time. Zimmerman sounds innocent, Obama sounds guilty, but really wants to MoveOn Forward. Perhaps Zimmerman and video guy will end up sharing a dungeon.
George Zimmerman was Palinized by Democrats & their Media to score anti-conservative political points…
- Gun Control
– Race Division (George was turned into a white man who has a Jewish name)
– Anti-Christian
– Victimology
– Race Division (George was turned into a white man who has a Jewish name)
Sorry, but I have to disappoint you.
Bob Dylan’s name once was Robert Zimmerman, but that doesn’t mean Zimmerman is a Jewish name.
It is a simple German name and means carpenter.
Rev’rund Tawana Sharpton cannot wait for June,’Yo. All his Brainless Ranting Lefty Twit Colleagues at PMSNBC can’t wait either,’Yo. Fast Eddie Schultz is frothing… Lil’Cwissy Matthews is lickin’ his loser chops…Wretched Madcow has her testosterone all in an uproar…Loser Larry’O is all sweaty under his hideous ‘toop…’Yo,’Yo,’Yo!
Why don’t the investigators have the cell phone data? Mr. Martin is not co-operating with investigators for some reason. It isn’t the the phone passcode that is needed but the entire account pin. Why haven’t the prosecutors gotten it?
