The 2012 Florida Statutes

Title XLVI CRIMES Chapter 776 JUSTIFIABLE USE OF FORCE

776.032 Immunity from criminal prosecution and civil action for justifiable use of force.— (1) A person who uses force as permitted in s. 776.012, s. 776.013, or s. 776.031 is justified in using such force and is immune from criminal prosecution and civil action for the use of such force, unless the person against whom force was used is a law enforcement officer, as defined in s. 943.10(14), who was acting in the performance of his or her official duties and the officer identified himself or herself in accordance with any applicable law or the person using force knew or reasonably should have known that the person was a law enforcement officer. As used in this subsection, the term “criminal prosecution” includes arresting, detaining in custody, and charging or prosecuting the defendant. (2) A law enforcement agency may use standard procedures for investigating the use of force as described in subsection (1), but the agency may not arrest the person for using force unless it determines that there is probable cause that the force that was used was unlawful. (3) The court shall award reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs, compensation for loss of income, and all expenses incurred by the defendant in defense of any civil action brought by a plaintiff if the court finds that the defendant is immune from prosecution as provided in subsection (1). History.—s. 4, ch. 2005-27.

They said this morning that the DOJ did an investigation into this case already to see if there was a RACIST element that would make it a hate crime and the investigation already ruled they was no racist element. No racist element on Zimmerman's part that is. The racist element came from the Politicians including Obama and the DOJ that saw fit to use this case to PUSH THEIR RACIST AGENDA. I would hope there is enough egg on Obama's racist face to stop him from pushing this any further but I fear he will see it as in for a penny in for a dime and he will push forward to prove he was right. US LAW MEANS NOTHING TO HIM AND HIS AGENDA :roll: :mad:

"Creepy Ass Cracka" is definitely racist. Maybe Zim could sue the "Martin" estate and take back the $Millions$ that the Retreat View Homeowners Assoc. settled with them for?

Now is the time for Zim to avenge all the BS he's had to endure in the name of racism and race baiting.

I don't understand how the court allowed that Homeowners case to be filed before they knew who was responsible for Trayvon's death. The Zimmerman NOT GUILTY verdict proved the law says Trayvon was responsible for his own death when he did not walk to the safety of his dad's home but turned around and attacked the Neighborhood Watch guy that was doing his job to protect his neighborhood from somebody he thought might be up to no good. I would think the court would wait to see who was responsible for what before making anyone write a million dollar check to comfort someone's feelings. What is the sense in having a CRIMINAL Case prove someone is not guilty if that innocent person can still be hauled up in front of God only knows how many more civil courts to prove what the Criminal Court already proved. ANd in every case that has been filed against Obama and his Birth Certificate the courts have ruled the person filing did not have standing to file the case so how does the Al Sharpton's and the NAACP have standing to file a case.

Oh and so much for the family claiming they would accept the verdict as their lawyers are already out in the media supporting a civil case against a guy that was according the law and jury, protecting his life from THEIR SON'S ACTIONS. So much for take personal responsible. :roll: They are going to sue to get even more money for something that would not have happened if their son had taken 4 minutes and WALKED HOME. :x

They probably had a time-frame time limitation to file,.. and would have possibly lost that ability if they waited... and that time frame expired..

it is my guess that the insurance company settled to avoid a trial and bad publicity..

add in that crump knew the truth would destroy his chances at a huge paycheck... and he didn't want to waste any time...

How can it be a white racist deal. Zimmermans mother looked pretty Hispanic to me he's no more white than Obama himself 1/2.

had they actually realized what their son was involved in they would not have dropped him off at a girlfriends house several hours away from their care...

Defense attorney O Mara.. made it clear at the press conference.. his tone was a bit more measured and sent a message...

Zimmerman attorney: We will get civil suit immunity

Mark O'Mara, George Zimmerman's defense attorney, said that they will 'seek and we will get' immunity from civil suits if any are 'spawned from this fiasco.'

after reading the law it looks like Out of town Corey persecution team has not left poor Sanford in a position where they may have to pay up to all parties... :mad:

because it fit the lawyer crump and the media's narrative.. even when they knew it was false...

Zimmerman, who is three years older than his 29-year-old brother George, described growing up in a bicultural home. Both grew up as altar boys, spoke English and Spanish, read the liturgy in both languages, and Spanish was the primary language at home

George loves his 88-year-old grandmother and refers to her as"abuelita," Spanish for grandma.

The Zimmermans celebrated Los Reyes Magos, or Three Kings Day, and they recall eating traditional Peruvian dishes like Manjar Blanco. The rule rather than exception at the home was Peruvian meals cooked by their mother Gladys, a Peruvian immigrant.

George especially loved a particular dish called Papa a la Huancaina – boiled potatoes served chilled with a sauce and feta cheese.

"We were very aware that we were two cultures," Zimmerman Jr. said. "It was a badge of honor for us."

Gladys would come home and watch popular Spanish language programming on Univision, like the news show “Primer Impacto,” or “Cristina” and “Sabado Gigante,” a favorite in the house. Television was banned during dinner time in the home except when Walter Mercado, a psychic Spanish- language television personality, would visit.

"We enjoyed it just as much as watching cartoons," he recalled.

Gladys is a devout Catholic who was employed in Peru as a physical education instructor. But Gladys' trip to the United States in 1974 to visit her brother introduced her to Robert Zimmerman, a Baptist and young soldier living in Virginia. They married in 1975.

The Zimmerman family blames the media for not doing its job, for jumping to conclusions and for giving voice to racist allegations before the facts were laid out

had the media checked.. they could easily have found out how Zimmerman was not a racist..

Out of town Corey has her own legal problems with this case as the Defense is filing a case against her office for withholding evidence. And I hope the whistleblower, that was fired for provided the defense with the evidence the Prosecution was hiding, files a lawsuit against her too. It is time department heads are held accountable for the actions of their offices and if they are breaking the law it needs to be fixed and the head removed and a LAW ABIDING person put in charge. :mad:

Then justice needs to work at a speed that fits within that "TIME-FRAME" The Defense team said this case could have gone to trial months earlier if the PROSECUTION had not stonewalled every effort to get the evidence. Evidence that we now know the defense never got all of. And since they didn't get it in time to use it to defend their client I hope all the hours spent delaying the case has to be paid for by the Crooked Prosecutors office that pressed charges that should never been filed.

If I were the Homeowners I would file a civil case against the Martin's and their lawyers to get back that settlement. They need to Stop the crooked lawyers from using the snail pace of the justice system to rip off innocent parties. People wonder why insurance premiums are so friggin high all you have to do is look at the slimy lawyers that make billions off of crazy civil lawsuits that should never have been filed. But as long as these legal crooks get their cut they are more than willing to exploit people AND INSURANCE COMPANIES :roll:

I'm not sure a case was ever filed against the HOA. The Martin lawyers threatened the Homeowners and they might have thought they were getting off cheap.

After all Zim did admit to shooting Trayvon, and the burden of proof is much less in a Civil Case.

If you ask me, it was the HOA that put the cart before the horse and settled too early.

Zimmerman from the first minutes also said it was in self defense so before a check was written that case should have been settled. Insurance Companies will settle for millions as they know they are going to get it back in HIGHER PREMIUMS. Those paying those higher premiums need to see to it law suits are filed only after the FACTS ARE KNOWN. And the SO CALLED Justice system needs to start tossing some of these crazy lawsuits that are filed by ambulance chasing lawyers OUT and hold those filing including the lawyers responsible for ALL COSTS.

Yet another example of : If we didn't HAVE lawyers, we wouldn't NEED lawyers!

This whole situation, from start to finish is such a blatant demonstration of reverse racism and government playing into it to assuage liberals' guilt feelings over their own exploitation of people, it is sickening.

One has to wonder, how much those such as Michael Flager, Al Sharpton, and other race baiters have 'earned' over the years for their efforts.

And, how many acts of crime they have enticed their followers to commit against people of ALL races might be rather shocking.
