In the new movie, A Mothers Worst Nightmare, TV One will explore the murder of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman.
The network announced a new slate of 26 original movies at their Upfront presentation in New York City.
Expectations for the movie will be high as the story explores one of Americas most controversial murders and trials.
TV One says:
A Mothers Worst Nightmare is an urban true crime drama chronicling one of Americas most polarizing murder cases in recent history: the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, a 17-year-old African-American high school junior. The film centers on Sybrina Fulton, Martins mother, as she diligently raises her son in the predominantly African-American community of Miami Gardens, Florida. Much of the story covers the months leading up to Martins death and the events that steer him to get involved with the wrong crowd. After a string of school suspensions, Fulton sends her son to spend time with his father, but this only leads to trouble in the name of George Zimmerman.
The movie will premiere in 2017.
Will you be watching?
They had to restart the web server.
I imagine it’s going to be a #blackliesmatter production.
How many American boys of color gave their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan? Surely there are better stories than a rehash of inner city social failure. Had Travon had the right parenting early on, he might have made it. He wasn’t a hero, he was a delinquent turning criminal. Then again, in the last great depression, the criminals were also heroes. Nothing really changes?
Thanks—I thought I was the only one that never heard of TV One.
Should be a big hit. /s

“Murder”. Sounded to me like urban upgrading.
Yea! Like I’m going to waste my time on that s#!t!!!!
Can’t wait for some scenes to be edited to add a laugh track. Should be a big hit on YouTube.
"My son is a thug!"

Factual errors really frustrate me.
Error # 1 — Trayvon was not murdered. Zimmerman was acquitted, so legally speaking, there was no crime. It was a tragic but accidental killing.
Error # 2 - Sybrina Fulton DID NOT RAISE HER SON full time past the age of two. Trayvon was raised in various ad hoc circumstances, which is part of why he grew up morphing into a gang banger. They want us to believe she was some sort of caring doting mother???? Really?????
Get ready for a propaganda movie, which likely will take major liberties with the truth, such as this brief description did.
By saying murder they have given it away that they are presuming rather than exploring.
“Trayvon was on his way home from choir practice to cook his family a meal using money he earned working the night shift after school. All of a sudden, a white man appeared and accosted him and tried take his lunch money. Trayvon pleaded Bible verse after Bible verse at this privileged and hateful white racist, but the racist pulled out a gun and shot him in the fact at point black range for no good reason.”
There, no need to watch the crap they’ll produce.
“And who’ll play the main characters?”
Trayvon will be played by Erkle.

Weird. I had to kind of go ‘’in the back door’’ I went to The Drudge Report and got in that way.Even that took some little bit of doing.
Wonder what the problems was? DU hackers maybe?
