Two things stuck out here to me:
1] We preserved the memory of Trayvon Martin
[I hope it wasn’t at the expense of his client. Nonetheless the saintly memory was only protected from these 6 jurors until their verdict — then they will know what everyone else and their dog knows. So what really was preserved??]
2] Manslaughter should be off the table because this was an intentional act. He intended to pull the trigger to save his life.
BTW one of the last pieces of information entered into evidence by the defense was the picture of Martin at the 7 Eleven.
It is amazing how the state spent the entire last two months including the trial excluding evidence from consideration rather than presenting it.
