    Bill- I think this will turn out to be a sham of a trial. I wonder if jurors will be offered the same rhetoric as voters in '08. If you don't vote to convict, you're racist.

      I have a high opinion of jurors. It's hard to change the mind of the average person with which you have differing opinions. Same with jurors, until they are sworn in, and then their opinion can be changed. A prime example is the Casey Anthony trial. Jurors openly wept because they felt that Casey was somehow involved in Caley's death, but the state didn't prove it to them. Reasonable doubt is powerful.

      I don't know if this will actually make it to trial. Apparently the prosecutor had access to the pictures of Zimmerman with blood on his head and face, but didn't include that with the probable cause statement (I forget what they call PC statement in FL). That would be a serious ethics violation.

      I'm surprised I haven't heard any outrage from the antis about the low bail. I was sure they'd be crying foul and conspiracy after a new judge was seated and $150k bail set.

    Bill- I'm not sure, don't quote this as fact, but I think it's because of final compensation. What I mean by that is this, In Illinois, if your bond is $150k, you only have to pay $15k for your freedom....10% here. I was told that Florida is 100% bail amount.

    I did not research this, and I do not sign my name to the validity. That's just what I HEARD from 1 statey, and 1 CPD officer.

      oops, gotta watch where that pointer is when I hit the mouse pad.

      It's 10% in Florida, plus jail fees. I'm sure his attorney already has the bond paid.

    My guess is that the prosecutor was in a catch 22 position whereas if she didn't indict then Sanford would burn. Best to let the jury decide and let them burn. By then passions might be less and the Sharpton's of the world would have moved onto another victim.

      I agree. Although the prosecutor said that any decision to prosecute or not wouldn't come by political pressure, clearly there was pressure. While it's not right for Zimmerman to have to face trial if the state doesn't have enough evidence to convict him, his life was already altered. Going to trial, or be acquitted by a judge, may be the best thing for Zimmerman. At least then, some of the racial hatred might be neutered.
