The prosecution could not afford a hung jury. Remember. The IT guy blew the whistle on the first day of jury selection back in June and the defense got Trayvon’s phone content. They were able to keep all that out of the trial because the defense didn’t have time to verify all that damning material. Any subsequent retrial would have brought all of that in and thoroughly washed little child Trayvon away with the vicious gangsta “No_Limit_Nigga”.
The prosecution knew they only had one shot.
That makes sense.
