FBI records: agents found no evidence that Zimmerman was racist (One Year Ago)
McClatchy ^ | July 12, 2012 | Frances Robles and Scott Hiaason

After interviewing nearly three dozen people in the George Zimmerman murder case, the FBI found no evidence that racial bias was a motivating factor in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, records released Thursday show.

Even the lead detective in the case, Sanford Det. Chris Serino, told agents that he thought Zimmerman profiled Trayvon because of his attire and the circumstances — but not his race.

Serino saw Zimmerman as “having little hero complex, but not as a racist.”

The Duval County State Attorney released another collection of evidence in the Zimmerman murder case Thursday, including reports from FBI agents who investigated whether any racial bias was involved in Trayvon’s Feb. 26 killing.

The evidence includes bank surveillance videos from the day of the killing, crime scene photos and memos from prosecutors.

Among the documents is a note from the prosecutor who said one of the witnesses said her son, a minor, had felt pressured by investigators to say the injured man he saw was wearing a red top. The boy’s testimony had been considered key, because it backed up Zimmerman’s allegation that he — wearing red — was being pummeled.

Federal agents interviewed Zimmerman’s neighbors and co-workers, but none said Zimmerman had expressed racial animus at any time prior to the Feb. 26 shooting of Martin . . .

Looks like the only racists here are those in the Obama White House, Holder Justice Department, and their allies in the main stream media who played the race card since Day One.

George Zimmerman is a minority.

Why are we letting them persecute Hispanics?

Could you please fix the date? It should read 2012 - not 2013. My mistake. Thanks.

The DOJ should investigate the Florida DA and if anyone had their civil rights violated that be George.

I didn’t know that being a racist was against the law. If that were true, Zer0 and Eric Holder would be in jail for life.

FBI investigators were racist, so they covered for Zimmerman. Watch, as the first investigation is discredited and thrown out by Holder.

The hand of God is busy here in work that is focused on showing humanity where foolishness takes them. This saga, this drama, is bigger than Barack Obama and his compadres. For wickedness, thy name is human (and demonic). Getting rid of the Barack Obama cabal would gain nothing without a new grip on saving grace, and that can only be done through individual human hearts. And I don’t mean a religiose society either. That can be quite wicked.

“Why are we letting them persecute Hispanics?”

What an opportunity for Republicans to inform Hispanics that the Rats are going to use them just like they used the blacks.

The media would be apoplectic.

If the justice department was thinking of eventually prosecuting Zimmerman on Federal charges, it is logical that they would do an investigation and contact witnesses and document what evidence was available at the first possible opportunity. They did that, and said that racism wasn't a factor with Zimmerman.

That being said, this was still a tactical mistake. They should have waited until after the trial, and then tried to lynch him, because there would not be a prior investigation which cut them off at the knees with a racism allegation. The race pimps are going to have to repudiate their own investigation, and that is going to infuriate a lot of people in the FBI.

If they want to come after Zimmerman in a civil lawsuit, they know that all the evidence which was suppressed by Judge Nelson will be allowed at a civil trial. And THAT works heavily in favor of Zimmerman. Further, many people who might have only paid cursory attention to the criminal trial, might tune in to watch the civil lawsuit, and I can guarantee that the race pimps DO NOT WANT THAT either! It will fully reveal the thuggishness of Martin, and people will know that the whole criminal prosecution was a fraud.

“...having little hero complex...”

There is an overarching chorus in the media and among the bootlickers and neo-slave class that Zimmerman was EVILE and the service of strange gods for being a MAN.

Taking care of your neighbors, neighborhood, and as John Wayne’s fictional character JT Booker says....

“I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people and I expect the same from them.”

This was Zimmerman’s home and community and Zimmerman had every right to drive, walk, watch, and talk to anyone he darn well pleased. And the minute that little thugee knocked him down, sat on him, and started banging his head into concrete.....Martin crossed the line and death found him there.

Justice WAS served that night. George Zimmerman was but it’s instrument.

The system failed in bending to mob screams and bringing charges against an innocent man. The system worked in a a jury of WOMEN setting him free.

Would the FBI be called in on any other shooting? No. Didn’t think so.

This is the kind of report the White House hands off to its media allies when it finds itself stuck between two racial identity groups and doesn’t want to offend either. The White House wants nothing to do with going after an Hispanic who was just found “not guilty”. So the White House wants to set the stage in preparation for having to tell the blacks, “(shrug) There’s nothing we can do.”

The Hispanic vote has the capacity for a little more fluctuation than the black vote. I mean, the black vote isn’t going anywhere, and the Democrats know it. They’ve been dumping on blacks and taking their monolithic vote for granted for decades. What’s to worry? No, it’s definitely more important to NOT offend Hispanics at this point.

Don’t be distracted. The Federal government is going to use sleight of hand, to keep our attention focussed on riots and demonstrations like the ones in Oakland, San Francisco and elsewhere, to try and give Boehner and Cantor breathing room to force amnesty for illegal aliens down our throats. DON’T LET THEM DO THIS!!

this might explain why he is pro prosecution and why the Vet was like a dad to him:

“• Zimmerman arrived at one of his police interviews with a friend who works as an air marshal. That friend told police Zimmerman was physically abused by his mother and had been estranged from his family.”

Suppose Zimmerman were a “racist”?

What difference does that make to his case? Is “being a racist” a crime in Florida?
