I don't think he will be acquitted. One of three things is more likely IMO. One, he will plead to a lesser charge because of the threat of pretrial jail and jail for his wife; or two, he will be killed in jail, or three, he will be convicted because it will be made plain to the jurors that their own safety and any normal lives will depend on a guilty verdict.
Good point. In high profile cases, particularly involving the federal government, DOJ seems to come up with charges aimed at family members to soften up their target. I wouldn't be surprised if the DOJ guys have been sharing their advice with the Florida prosecutors.
Always avoid having family members make any statements at all unless they are thoroughly vetted by counsel, and absolutely essential.
He’s a non-white Democrat. I SERIOUSLY doubt he’s going to do any time.
I have faith, albeit limited, in our criminal justice system. Zimmerman is NOT a criminal, and I believe the evidence bears that out.
OJ was a disappointment because he was guilty. The blacks cheered. Zimmerman will be a success because he’s innocent. The blacks will riot.
