This was not run by a Grand Jury in the first place because they were afraid they would get a no bill.
I think they were angling on railroading him into a plea. You can see the drill, 10 prosecutors, all on state pay verses a relatively poor defendant with either a court appointed attorney or the public defender. It would be like the lions verses the christians and the lions were undefeated. But alas, an attorney stepped forward and the steam engine of injustice is now on the siding.
The state’s attorney has too much invested here to now drop the case so I guess we move on to the prelim and hopefully the judge does his job and dismisses the charges with prejudice. When that day approaches, go to personal DEFCON 2 because the junior citizens will be whipped up into a frenzy and all hell might break loose.
I hope this does not go to a jury, the trial will be a circus and no way the jurors need that kind of personal grief for doing the right thing: a not guilty verdict.
The parents made some big bucks and are happy and Zimmerman and family will be forever scarred by the dumb little skittle dealing punk.
