Trayvon Martins friend Rachel Jeantel, revealed last night that she had a feeling that the largely white-female jury would find George Zimmerman not guilty because of their race.
'If Trayvon was white and he had a hoodie on, would that have happened?' said Miss Jeantel, who was the last person to speak to the teen.
Meanwhile protests continued throughout the U.S. as thousands of people gathered in Atlanta, Georgia, and Birmingham, Alabama, as well as smaller crowds in New York City and Washington D.C.
The slain teenagers friend, who was one of the prosecutions star witnesses said after the verdict she felt disappointed, angry, upset, question, and mad.
During the trial, defence lawyer Don West repeatedly asked Miss Jeantel to speak up and the jury said that they could not hear her, so she used an interview on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight to explain that an untreated overbite has caused her speech issues for much of her life.
I had to have surgery to push it back and right now I dont want to do it because it would take a year to heal, she said. Words I can say - it cant come out right.
She took shots at Mr West, saying he's lucky I'm a Christian - as that is the only thing that has prevented her from cussing him out.

Just why in the Hank Hill can’t a 19 year old read cursive?
Someone push her back into the sea..... She’s lost her inner compass.....
Bell curve drop out is my first guess !
People who can read?
People who can read cursive?
"they old, that's old school people.
We in a new school, our generation, my generation."
That book would be thinner than an average church newsletter.
If TM were white, it would never have gone to court.
“they old, that’s old school people.
We in a new school, our generation, my generation.”
Well it looks like I’m old school. I can read and write cursive. I also know my grammar. As in “They are old, that’s old school people. We are in the new school, our generation, my generation”.
It would appear her generations needs a dunce cap.
All this Hispanic bashing makes me sick.
Dems are such racists.
Doesn't surprise me nor does it trouble me. This person is not a dangerous lunatic, prone to violence; at least not personally.
This poor soul has no grasp of what is a rational discussion, never mind an honest and calm non-confrontational debate. What was one of the remarks she made when asked a question by a defense attorney?
Wasn't it "That's retarded!"?
Rachel Jeantel is one of the most ignorant people in America. We should give her a prize.
Jeantel is about as credible as dog poop o sidewalk
our country will not long survive this kind of disrespect - and amnesty will hasten the fall of the civilized
After seeing a chart of the times when Martin was on the phone with her, I started thinking. SHE instigated this. She said something to Martin that made him mad and willing to go pick a fight with Zimmerman.
Now that we’ve heard her talk about Zimmerman perhaps being a gay rapist, I think SHE put that idea in Martin’s head.
I have read that she testified that Martin went home. He was supposed to be babysitting. If this is true, why did he leave in the 1st place and why did he not stay at home after returning.
Long story short: she is the inspiration for all that took place later.
Because she is a weak reader and writer in the first place.
If Trayvon were white with a hoodie on and doing everything Trayvon did, my guess is he would have been one of them, how you say Wigger.
I would guess you are probably right about that.
