George Zimmerman to Be Charged in Trayvon Martin Shooting, Law Enforcement Official Says
The Washington Post ^ | Wednesday April 11, 2012

Wednesday, April 11, 1:56 PM

Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey plans to announce as early as this afternoon that she is charging neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, according to a law enforcement official close to the investigation.

It was not immediately clear what charge Zimmerman will face.

Martin, 17 and unarmed, was shot and killed Feb. 26 by Zimmerman, who said he was acting in self defense. Police in Sanford, Fla., where the shooting took place, did not charge Zimmerman, citing the state’s “stand your ground” law.

Corey told reporters Tuesday night that she would hold a news conference about the case within 72 hours. A news release from her office said the event will be held in Sanford or Jacksonville, Fla.

Benjamin Crump, who is representing the Martin family, said earlier this week that Corey’s office had asked where Trayvon’s parents would be each day this week. They arrived Wednesday in Washington for a civil rights conference organized by the Rev. Al Sharpton, where they are scheduled to speak.

The Revrunds Al and Jesse, the Panthers, the MSM and all their ilk are very definitely doing the high fives and knuckle bumps as we speak.

Let the hanging begin.

Looks like the race pimps and the Lynch Mob Media are going to get their way on this. Thank you, 0baMao, for re-igniting racism in America!
