Neighborhood watch responsibilities?

1. Know your neighborhood and encourage communication within the neighborhood.

2. Report suspicious behavior.

He went 'above and beyond' when he got out of his car with a gun. I don't think he is a racist but I do think he was looking to play cop for whatever reason, and I for one am happy that we have laws against this.

Manslaughter on the one charge buy for 2 units!

Admittedly I have not been following this case nearly as much as most of you and I really don't give a shit if he is convicted or freed on the original charge. Having said that, it is complete bullshit at this point to allow the jury to consider manslaughter or possibly 3rd degree murder as I read today. If this is allowed, why would a prosecutor ever go with lessor charges even if they don't think they can win the more serious one. Why wouldn't they just throw shit against the wall and see what sticks for the more serious charge knowing you have lessor charges to fall back on:shrug: Maybe I just do not understand and/or read wrong, but this seems like complete bullshit to me.

If Obama had a son he would be exactly like Trayvon is all you need to know. The Justice Department is behind the new charges today in my opinion

Zimmerman went looking for trouble. Looks like he just found it.

I can't speak for Florida law, but I assume it is similar to Arizona law, and here that is not uncommon. It is actually most often the defense that requests lesser-included offenses rather than the prosecution (no idea what the situation was in the Zimmerman case). The State generally DOES charge the most serious count it has probable cause for (i.e. an indictment).

So the prosecutor in the Zimmerman case is indicted for falsifying his arrest warrant which led to him being charged with murder, and now that prosecutor wants him convicted on lessor charges:facepalm: The more I look at this the bigger fuckfest it looks like.

According to Florida Law the lesser charges are a given in a murder case and are on the table from the beginning. The prosecutor does not have to ask for it. This according to several Jax Lawyers on the news tonight.

Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Indicted for Allegedly Falsifying Arrest Warrant

The George Zimmerman defense has recently gotten a lucky break. Angela Corey, Florida?s state attorney and the prosecutor against Zimmerman, has been indicted by a citizens? grand jury for allegedly falsifying an arrest warrant and the complaint that led to Zimmerman being charged with the second-degree murder of Trayvon Martin.

The indictment accuses Corey of allegedly withholding photographs of Zimmerman?s head after the incident. Also, Corey allegedly falsely signed an arrest warrant under oath without including the pictures as evidence. Critics claim that Corey rushed the arrest warrant through because activists were rallying around the Trayvon Martin shooting, demanding that Zimmerman be charged with murder. Critics argue that Corey was attempting to secure a reelection with the support of the activists.

Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz stated that Corey?s actions were unethical and illegal.

The outcome of this indictment could fundamentally affect the outcome of the George Zimmerman trial. At the very least, the indictment makes the prosecution look week and overly ambitious. At worst, the state could lose its prosecutor. Also, it could lead to the court throwing out Zimmerman?s case completely. Criminal charges that were filed under a falsified, illegal arrest warrant will have a hard time standing up in court.

As if that was not already bad enough for the prosecution, the early stages of the trial have been favorable for the defense. Witnesses have vindicated Zimmerman?s version of the story. In fact, the state even had to attempt to discredit one of its own witnesses after the individual gave unexpected testimony in favor of Zimmerman.

The Zimmerman case has been highly politicized ever since the beginning. The indictment demonstrates just how easily politics can weasel into court rooms to encourage government employees to make unethical decisions. Based on these surprising change of events, there is a fairly good chance that Zimmerman will soon be able to walk out of the courtroom as a free man.

First time i've heard about it, our News Media is CORRUPT.
