Nah, that would be the scumbag lawyer who did any paying off that may have been done. This charade is all about the mopney - - it's always about the money - - and if Zimmerman walks, the chance of a civil case (in search of some of that "jackpot justice") succeeding drops significantly.
The attorney can’t pay her. That would be unethical. But Tray’s mamma and poppa can....just being charitable.
How's that work? They've already settled with the homeowners' association.
Aside from perhaps the City of Sandord, who I think they would have difficulty suing since Trayvon was already dead when they arrived, who (with money) is there left to sue?
I realize it's a very common meme, so this isn't really aimed at you specifically, but I get very tired of the notion that "It's always about the money."
Well, no it's not. The idea is actually a variant of vulgar Marxism, in which all human actions have at root a financial motivation.
Individual folks like reporters, and institutions like media outlets do have a financial incentive to play this story up, since it brings in viewers.
But most people who get their panties all bunched about the issue have no financial incentive.
It's NOT all about money. It's about tribalism, and feeling self-righteous, and power, and reinforcing one's worldview and hating the evil pussy-ass cracker. Even, perhaps especially, if you am one.
