Double Jeopardy Again?

Remember the policemen who beat Rodney King and were found Not Guilty? Well, then the Feds came right back and tried them for Civil Rights violations.

Zims life will never be the same.


ABC News -The NAACP was "outraged" over the not-guilty verdict in the George Zimmerman murder trial and called on the Department of Justice to prosecute Zimmerman for shooting Trayvon Martin.

"We are outraged and heartbroken over today's verdict," NAACP President Benjamin Jealous said in a statement.

"We will pursue civil rights charges with the Department of Justice, we will continue to fight for the removal of Stand Your Ground laws in every state, and we will not rest until racial profiling in all its forms is outlawed," Jealous said.

A civil rights probe had previously been opened by the Department of Justice and a spokeswoman said the department would continue to "evaluate the evidence generated during the federal investigation, as well as the evidence and testimony from the state trial."

Zimmerman shot and killed Martin in Sanford on Feb. 26, 2012. Zimmerman, 29, maintains he shot Martin, 17, in self-defense, while the state argued that Zimmerman "profiled" Martin and concluded he was a criminal.

The case took on racial overtones after police declined to charge Zimmerman, who is white and Hispanic. Martin was black.

The lawyers that were talking about this maybe happening after the verdict was announced last night, figured there were no grounds for the Feds to step in as it was proven that Zimmerman was not a racist when it came to the shooting. MSNBC edited a tape to make it sound like he was but the evidence presented in court proved he did not profile Trayvon as a BLACK as he could not see what color he was due to lighting of a very dark night and the hoodie he was wearing up over his head. If the DOJ get involved now after they paid to encourage the racist feelings in Florida Obama and Holder should be held accountable for ANY VIOLENCE. They stuck their noses in where they were not needed and fed the racism to push THEIR AGENDA. The Rabid Cowboy hat wearing dog Fredrica Wilson, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson also need to be held accountable for their public remarks that were not supported by the EVIDENCE. It is time to stop the RACE BAITING and heal a country that they have tore apart with their MEDIA GRABBING LIBERAL CRAP. :mad:

I only wish the Police Chief that lost his job because he didn't press charges on Zimmerman could sue those that stepped in and over ruled him and made this story into a POLITICAL CIRCUS. I hope the Prosecutor's office has to cover all the costs and cover Zimmerman's expenses for having to go into hiding as they did not have a case and that was proven by the fact that all their witnesses were proving the defenses of Zimmerman. :roll:

I also think they need to look into any case that resulted in a guilty charge that that Medical Examiner testified in. :shock: FGS he testified he changed his mind to how long Trayvon could have survived AFTER he first ruled it was 1 to 3 minutes. If he changed his mind several months later, after he did another autopcy in another case, that he could have lived as long as 10 minutes, with a bullet in his heart and that he bled out when there was very little blood showing in the picture, one has to wonder what else he testified to that he would have CHANGED HIS MIND ON THAT WOULD HAVE CHANGED A GUILTY VERDICT TO INNOCENT. :? :roll:
And the fact he did not see fit to take pictures of the WHOLE body or protect the condition of ALL PARTS OF THE BODY INCLUDING THE HANDS leads me to believe he was doing some pretty questionable work as a SO CALLED EXPERT. :roll:
