That is not beyond anything else I have seen from little bammy's crew of communists, so your theory has merit.
The prosecutor my be maxing out the charge in order to get GZ to plea deal to a lesser charge.
It will take a pretty crafty lawyer to defend him on this one as there are so many factions involved. I listened to the prosecutor's speech (live) yesterday and it sounded like she was introducing all the stars at Oscar night. I did not believe the crap she spouted about proceeding with the case according to the strictest letter of the law for ONE SECOND.
NO.
The entire thing is dripping with political theater.

I found her comment that she was ‘seeking justice for Trayvon’ rather than seeking justice, period, interesting.
That's standard for prosecutors, especially when they have a middle-class defendant who's family would be financially ruined by legal fees if the case went to trial, and whose life would be effectively over if convicted. They go for murder-2 and say they will allow a plea of manslaughter with under a year in jail.
