Personally, I think the prosecutors “exaggerate for effect” when making such charges. Having seen it before in other cases, they shoot for the moon to get their point across and hope something will stick. I will be surprised if they win their case.

Yes, but at what expense, the life of someone? Because Zimmerman’s life is now over as he rots in jail awaiting trial for false charges agaisnt him

Yes I know, BUT, the thing is, we’re suppsoed to be protected against having false charges levelled agaisnt us- false imrpisonment- Let’s say I were to rob a store- if the prosecutor doesn’t have any evidence I did it, but wants to arrest me anyways, they can’t just make up a charge of say kidnapping and murder in hopes that somethign will eventually stick- I will have been just arrested for crimes I did NOT commit. George Zimmerman has been arrested for crimes he did NOT commit,and htere is absolutely no evidencve in anythign given to date that indicate he should have been arrested for those crimes- IF they wanted to go for wrongful death, or negligent homicide, or soem such thing, then they would be ontrack for havign him arrested and tried- however, there is nothign in any of hte evidence that suggests he had a depraved mind and that he had a callous indifference to the well being of others- and in my mind the prosecutor had NO right bringing such falsde charges against Zimmerman- The prosecutor woudl have to have REASONABLE suspicion that the person they are arresting is guilty of the crime for which they are beign accused- The fact is, as I said, there is nothign in the evidence to even begin to suggest that Zim was depraved of mind and callously indifferent to the well being of another- infact we see just the oposite, that zim never even took his gun out until AFTER trayvon attempted to get hte gun from george.

The facts of the case show thaqt there was NOTHINGH with which to hold George Zimmerman- He acted within his rights in self defence, and was rightfully allowed to go after being questioned and after the case was investigated and after witnesses corroborated Zims story. Now all of a sudden, BECAUSE OF PRESSURE fro mthe blakc community, the state has stepped in and arrested George for no other reason than the pressure- they are IGNORING the evidnece and investigation that has already been done, and levelling false charges agaiosnt Zimmerman- The charges agaisnt him were invented- made up, simoply in order to have him arrested- you can’t just throw somethign oput there for charges and later hope they stick IF there is absolutely NO evidence that the man or woman committed the acts i nthe charges
