The case is now officially politicized. The reason she says she won’t need a grand jury is she has little evidence to present to them even though the standards of proof are low. Dead men don’t testify. Grand juries are anonymous and thus are insulated from being castigated by the public if they do not indict. She does not want the embarrassment of a no bill and therefore she will move the prosecution ahead on her own.

This will cost the left big time.

I don’t want Zimmerman tried because he acted in self defense but if he does anything but walk everybody but the lynch mob will be furious

Under Florida law she only needs the GJ if she wants to make it a death penalty case.

You know what would be interesting, would be for someone like Hannity to assemble a GJ of Sanford citizens and see if they would return a due bill...
