Crump was first contacted by a cousin of Trayvon Martin's father.... The cousin, a Miami attorney,.... was familiar with Crump's civil rights work in Florida.
Crump and his law partner, Daryl Parks, are Tallahassee-based.. 'personal injury attorneys..' who primarily handle wrongful death and negligence cases..... But their everyday work..'often involves civil rights issues'.
"While there may be a wrongful death issue,....' it involves in their eyes more than anything a civil rights cause' ... .......(Crump) has a passion for issues that have something to do with civil rights violations."........said James Messer, a Tallahassee attorney who serves on the board of the Tallahassee Bar Association with Crump.
' Attorney Crump's strategy' ..'for making the case international news' :
....began with a series of heart-wrenching news conferences in which Martin's parents spoke about their loss. ....Florida media outlets began to notice.
Then, ....'he enlisted'... U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown to help convince authorities to release 911 tapes,.... recordings that brought the case to the attention of national media.......
... He's further ratcheted pressure on authorities by organizing a series of rallies'.... and working with national civil rights figures such as 'Al Sharpton.'
Crump, who was in Washington for several days of meeting with members of Congress and appearing on national news shows. ....."We've been pushing relentlessly day and night." http://www.thegrio.com/specials/trayvon-martin/benjamin-crump-martin-family-lawyer-known-for-civil-rights-cases.php
