I suspect this will end with a hung jury. Then the judge will likely not retry as it would be futile. He is obviously innocent of 2nd degree and manslaughter. But the jury will not risk a verdict. I also suspect that the prosecution has a ringer on the jury and Zimmerman will not be acquitted. Hung jury.

that would surely bring an ‘ima riot’, whatever that means, in all those tweets threatening us if Zimmerman isn’t drawn and quartered at dawn.

“Then the judge will likely not retry as it would be futile.”

As I recall, normally the decision to retry or not is made by the prosecutors, or those to whom they report. So it’s ultimately up to Sharpton.
