There seems to be two trials going on. One in the courtroom that just got going and the one the media has been conducting ever since the act of self-defense.

Your very wording here indicates that you have yourself prejudged his innocence. You may very well be right, but don't get all self-righteous about someone doing the same on the other side.

As our legal system does, until proven guilty in a court of law...

We’ve pretty much had access to the information for months. I don’t think it’s that big of a stretch by this point to think he’s innocent.

We know Zimmerman’s head was being pounded into the sidewalk. What more do we need to know, to realize he was defending himself?

I couldn’t convict the guy on that alone.

There would be no justifiable act for Martin using what could easily have been lethal force. End of story.

Ans you write like someone who hasn’t been watching the trial, following the evidence and the recordings of the investigations and police interviews. Those who have heard the tapes of the interviews, saw for themselves the behavior and probity of the witnesses and are in the process of making up their minds. As one who has watched, listened and thought about what I have seen its a very straightforward case.

The evidence couldn't have anything to do with it right Sherm? Watch the trial here get it unfiltered.
Bumper to bumper coverage. No Comments, no commercials

You don't think the media is judging these people?

Don't need to look very far as to why lawyers spend a good bit of time looking for jurors who have not been influenced by the media's portrayal of the defendant.
