Trayvon Martin

[Locutus]

Did the investigators / medical examiner do nail scrapings? The assumption is yes, and no Zimmerman DNA!

They did do nail scrapings and found no DNA.  Ex posted a link to that report somewhere on this thread, but it's back several pages now.

Not looking good for Zimmerman.

^^ There's the article we're talking about and in case you don't like Daily Kos as a source, here's a link to the complete report by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

FDLE Report

So one has to really wonder why the prosecution did not use this in order to show things did not happen the way Zimmy said. . .

As you have said before, had I been sitting on that jury I likely would have found him not guilty as well. The prosecution, IMHO, did a horrible job of putting together its case and presenting it. It was the OJ trial all over again. . .

Sure is a lot of energy being spent on this topic instead of the economy and Benghazi.  Strange how that works isn't it?

Trolling.  Don't you have some widespread rioting to report back to us about?

Show me where I said "wide spread".  I mentioned 2 places period and posted links. 

Wonder if the media, Sharpton, and Jackson will get in on this one.  http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2013/07/13/Man-beaten-by-bored-teens-dies-1-year-later.html  They're all about equality ya know.

They completely missed several points that seemed obvious to me.  It was almost as if they were deliberately trying to throw it.

Look who finally rolled out of bed at noon and started in with her racist diatribe again!

Yeah, I had the same thought at a few points. It's almost as if they decided, "hey, we're being forced to prosecute so let's make sure to touch all the bases but we aren't going to cover them."

It appeared to me as if they just went through the motions and that was it.

And you keep squalling about civil rights leaders and the POTUS trying to avoid commentary or incite riots. Yet everything I have read and heard from them is calling for peaceful acts and reflection; from ALL of them. . .

Prove that shite or stop spreading lies!

I spent 40yrs getting up at 4:00 and 5:00am so if I choose to sleep 'til noon now that's my right.  Just FYI I was up at 6:30am.  Now worry about what you do and not so much about me.  If you're lucky one of these days you can retire and sleep whatever hours you want too.

Like I said, I didn't watch the trial.  I just followed summaries that came out daily regarding the courtroom proceedings.  To me, if someone is on top of someone else "pounding their head" then one would have to assume that their knees would be on the ground and that their pants would show some evidence of that.  There is no evidence of damage to his pants around the knees.  No tears; no stains; no dirt.

I would like to see what was presented to the jury in the form of oral arguments when that picture was introduced.

Okay, this picture CLEARLY shows soaked knee's and shins.....

Clearly?  That's just a more distorted version of the same picture that doesn't show those things.

That's the problem with you people: no objectivity.  You want tobelieve so badly that the "little thug-ass n****r" had it coming that you'll manufacture whatever narrative you need to to support that, no matter how absurd.

[Henry Hawk]

Bullshit, it is the liberals who are pissed because NO Evidence supports Zimmerman of being guilty.  Evidence DOES support Martin making a mistake of attacking.... PERIOD.  He HIT Zimmerman.  He WAS on top.  He DID cause wounds to Zimmerman.  He COULD have went home.
Those are FACTS.

I find this so sad, how so many of you act like you CARE about a black kid, but since the time Trayvon was shot...nearly 500 kids in Chicago has been murdered.  Not ONE out cry by anybody on here.  THAT is where the real tragedy is.

Just because a "white" hispanic (that still cracks me up) was involved in this one........and Obama told the world that looked like his son.....it became news.... and you people act like you gave a shit.

Again, I agree that the pants look more wet there than in the one I posted, but where are the stains and dirt?  If he's pounding someone's head into the ground, his knees should be grinding on the grass which would cause stains and dirt marks especially if the ground is wet.   I'm still not seeing why there are no stains or dirt given Zimmerman's version of the events.
