“Trayvon was suspended from school for a week. That is why he was in that development with his father.”

I did not know that. Zimmerman still should have avoided the conflict, though.

His English teacher is on record that it was for tardiness. Nothing violent. No drugs.

Trayvon was under a five-day suspension when he was shot that Sunday night, but Kypriss said it was due to tardiness and not misbehavior.

“Trayvon was not a violent or dangerous child. He was not known for misbehaving,” the teacher said. “He was suspended because he was late too many times.”
