Trayvon's mother: Latest juror statement "devastating"
CBS ^ | 7/26/13

Posted on 07/26/2013 6:21:00 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The second juror to speak publicly said in an interview made available Thursday she feels George Zimmerman "got away with murder" for fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, but that there wasn't enough evidence at trial to convict him under Florida law.

Martin's mother, Sybrina Fulton, released a statement saying, "It is devastating for my family to hear the comments from juror B29, comments which we already knew in our hearts to be true. That George Zimmerman literally got away with murder.

"This new information challenges our nation once again to do everything we can to make sure...

I presume so. It was published by CNN in their coverage of the sixth day of the trial. It seems factual on its face, but you never know.

-- and he told his victim "You're gonna die tonight...." --

In at least one recounting, Zimmerman said that this "threat" was uttered as Martin noticed Zimmerman was armed, and started to reach for Zimmerman's pistol.

That was Zimmerman’s side of the story. I thought it would have been on the cell phone when someone was screaming.

It didn't catch John Guy saying that he was going to call 911 either.

Did you want that too???

-- We did not hear that on the tape where the screaming occurred. --

Lots of sounds don't appear on that recording. That doesn't mean the sounds didn't exist. The screams were loud, the phone was distant from the beatdown.

Sure. That would help to calm this story down. I mean here we are close to two weeks later and we are still talking about this story. Even Casey Anthony who went through the same thing was starting to dwindle down by now.

Sounds like the Chicago Way got to her - money and praise if she says the right things, opprobrium and being hunted if she doesn't.

“Wouldn’t it be cheaper just to pay for land lines for poor people, making local calls free?”

That’s how the program started. But then, someone had the idea that being hooked to a landline just wasn’t “fair” when the “producers” in the country had cellphones.

Exactly! I would love to ask juror B29 what it must have felt like for GZ to have his head being bashed on the sidewalk by punk criminal 17 yr old teen TM, knowing that TM was doing all he can to kill GZ. This was a clear cut case of self-defense, which we are all entitled to protect ourselves...well, maybe no longer in the race-baiting eyes of 0dumb0sh_t & Holder.

Juror B29 is now just cowardly pandering to the race baiters, hoping to avoid death threats by the great unwashed stupid masses, especially the 98% of the black community who are calling for GZ's head.

“Juror B-29 is an obviously confused and unintelligent lady”

And we won’t feel badly when her or one of her EIGHT kids is attacked with no way to defend themselves, because, if they did defend themselves and the attacker died, the faily member would be guilty of murder.(According to her line of “thinking”)

The press could have calmed the story down from the start, "Man shoots while suspected prowler is beating him." Now that the press has invested so heavily in a false narrative, it isn't about to reverse course.

The press could calm this down now, if it wanted to. Summer of the shark, the public impression is based on lies and misinformation.

I wish the media would dig up more crap and regurgitate it all over again until their race baiting partners can gin up some violent protest that proves whitey is the reason Saint Treyvon is now a dead thug.

This is not getting old or anything. The media is as bad as our racist president and his attorney general.

This is just the shot across Zimmerman’s bow by the opposition warning him not to go forward with his civil suit. This juror and the others which follow her have been bought. If George Zimmerman committed murder, he would have been convicted, i.e.found guilty. The law, not their feelings, would have been the determing reason. In my opinion, she has been paid and paid well and also coached in both the choice and phraising of her words. Al designed to undermine George’s case.

None of this is new. It has all been public information for over a year.

Something tells me these jurors are terrified of being outed.

NO, THIS is devastating. Thirty-three year old mother of four, Kelly Hunnewell, was working in a hot bakery. At 3:30 in the morning three black TRAYVON WANNABES in HOODIES broke into the bakery, chased her down like a defensless animal and shot her to death. THIS IS THE DEFINTION OF DEVASTATING. Sabrina, it only made local news in Columbia SC, the AP didnt think her death was newsworthy. So take your race baiting BS and go F$&! yourself.

I don’t think 98% of blacks feel that way. The “crowds” for these “Justice for St. Skittles” marches are hilariously low.

Most people realize, I think, GZ was a victim who fought back.

Someone in the state of Fla. ought to explain to these people that evidence (or in SOME cases, the lack of it), is the reason a we have a judge and jury who meet to determine innocence or guilt of the accused...instead of following the ‘judgement’ of public opinion.

I'm going to go ahead and say it. For a segment of the population that thinks it is wrong to stereo type, based on the actions "of a few", the raw ignorance and stupidity on display for the is defeating their position. And the media is not helping the cause by repeatedly showing how stupid the stereo typed portion of the population apparently is.

Every time I see another story of a person that does not understand the most basic and fundamental of our "rule of law", I think I "stereo" type just a little more.
