"Depraved mind." She's charging him with a Florida Statutes 782.04(2) Second Degree Murder, what some states call 'depraved indifference.' It's not the 782.04(3) that some people are trying to pin on 'aggravated stalking' (which doesn't apply to Zimmerman, because there was never a restraining order, etc.).

My guess is that she's going to say he was obsessed with intruders, as evidenced by all of his calls, and his statement about how all of these guys 'get away,' when Martin was running away. She'll try to play that into Zimmerman being indifferent to Martin's safety because he was so obsessed - and that he somehow wasn't justified taking a gun with him simply because a lot of property crimes had occurred.

just my guess as to where she's going.

“obsessed by intruders”? that was his volunteer job, to be watchful for the neighborhood.

I don’t understand how Corey can overcome her burden if Zimmerman lost Martin, and then Martin initiated the confrontation as the evidence seems to indicate.

That was his job or duty though as watchman. All those calls were scattered over what? Tem or eleven years?
It wasn’t THAT many. And he never chased or shot at anyone before did he? He’s trained in security as well. idk..sounds like a far fetched charge to me.

[[and that he somehow wasn’t justified taking a gun with him simply because a lot of property crimes had occurred.]]

He had a conceal permit an d was justified carrying it anywhere he liked- Zimmerman also wasn’t ‘indifferent to martin’s safety’ because he didn’t have his gun out wavign it at martin, and also because he didn’t initiate contact wityh martin- martin criminally assaulted zimmerman first, so it was martin who was indifferent to zimmerman’s safety- I hoep she does go that route- it WILL backfire on her
