There was no eye witnesses to the shooting, and Zimmerman declared it self defense. There needs to be a grand jury convened and if there is enough evidence then put him on trial in front of a jury. If I was ever in his shoes and it was a legitimate shooting I sure as heck would hope the state would not listen to mobs of angry people hell bent on it being a race crime and investigate it.
If he is charged then he has the right to a speedy trial, perhaps the DA is just waiting to get all the evidence/facts in order before he issues those charges. I have heard of many crimes not being prosecuted right away so the state has time to do a thorough investigation, perhaps that is all that is going on.
He is innocent until proven guilty, personally I think when it all ends he will find his ass under the jail where it belongs, but that is just IMHO.

Good luck with that.....
