Police chief fired over Trayvon Martin shooting

There’s a huge difference between saying that “a struggle ensued” (passive voice) and demonstrating that a man intentionally committed a felony while expecting the imminent arrival of the police.

You make a good point.

If Trayvon was fearful that night, why didn't he call 911??? and if his girlfriend was fearful for him as she claims, why didn't she call 911 for him??? Someone who has already called 911 and knows the police are on the way is not going to instigate a fight.

Let's look at the connections here.

The Trayvon parents, undoubtedly under the coaching of their slime-ball attorney, publicly call for the firing of the police chief. Why?

To taint any jury during trial. It MUST look like the cops bungled the investigation and failed to gather any forensic evidence in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. Therefore, there was lots of goods to be heaped on Mr. Z. but the "incompetent" police force under the now-fired chief failed to implicate Z in the follow-up. So the chief has to go.

Then, in Step Two, the napoleonic Mayor, marching in lockstep with the parents and their slime-ball attorney plus Obama and the ever-lurking Rev-runds Jackson and Sharpton, fires the police chief. This sets up a trial scenario like the OJ case where LA detectives and other investigators, law enforcement principals and laboratory employees became the perps and Simpson became the victim during the full course of the trial.

The now-fired Sanford police chief, Bill Lee, will become the Mark Fuhrman of the Zimmerman trial....you can bet on it. And since he was fired, his resume and testimony will look much less sterling and believable to a jury.

This firing demonstrates that Mr. Zimmerman's stalkers are devious, evil.....and thinking and acting incrementally with a plan in hand.

Leni

Nope. The man won't apologize, he wont' get his job back. And last but not least, Zimmerman will not walk.

If youdo not know what it is like to be a pawn in a political game, talk to some of our Service men who are doing time, not for deeds they committed on the field of battle, but to appease the muslims.

I do not think that we should, but who is going to stand up to them?

Go back and review the inital threads on the Zimmerman story and look at the members of this forum that were leading the lynch Zimmerman mob. the public officials and politicians see this also and say to themselves, "Why risk my ass?". It iseasier to just go with the flow.

Statement from former Chief Bill Lee:

"It is disappointing that, in spite of his steadfast commitment to fairness and waiting for the results of a review of the Sanford Police Department and its investigation of the Trayvon Martin case, City Manager Bonaparte has chosen to exercise his rights under the employment contract to terminate my employment without cause.

"I continue to stand by the work performed by the Sanford Police Department in this tragic shooting, which has been plagued by misrepresentations and false statements for interests other than justice. As the case progresses through the justice system, the evidence will show that our investigation was a proper effort to find the truth and follow the law. This has already been validated by evidence that has since become public as well as by comments from the special prosecutor.

"I appreciate the opportunity I have had to serve all the people of the City of Sanford, the City Employees and especially the men and women of the Sanford Police Department."
