She’s grasping at straws....he was defending himself...how is THAT manslaughter? But, I’m no lawyer.
Actually, this week a lawyer chimed in. He said what you and I said. He was defending himself against potential great bodily harm. The best the state can hope for is a hung jury even on manslaughter. I suspect most, if not all of the jurors think that Zimmerman is a completely innocent man that found himself up against a young thug with too much hubris. To send him to prison to satiat a bit** judge makes no sense. That would be the opposite of compassion - and a total lack of respect for the law.
