"In all criminal prosecutions," reads the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, "the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial." In its dangling of George Zimmerman over the pit of judicial hell for the last three years, the Obama Department of Justice (DOJ) violated the spirit of that amendment for no better reason than to pacify the Democrats' increasingly bloodthirsty base.
Finally, on Tuesday of this week, the DOJ announced that it had found insufficient evidence to pursue federal criminal civil rights charges against Zimmerman. A White House so seemingly appalled by torture had no qualms about torturing Zimmerman needlessly for nearly three years. Indeed, within months of the February 26, 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, the DOJ knew it had no criminal case against Zimmerman, but it kept dangling him nonetheless.
On March 19, 2012, ABC reported that the FBI, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida would all investigate Martin's death. By Monday, April 2, 2012, FBI agents were already in Florida questioning individuals in an Orwellian "parallel investigation" that focused less on Zimmerman's actions that fateful night than on his thoughts, past and present.
Did Zimmerman really say "coon" on his call to the dispatcher? Had he ever told a racial joke? Were the suspicious persons he reported to the police disproportionately black? In contemporary America, words often mattered more than actions.
By day two of the FBI investigation, FBI agents were grilling the Sanford PD's lead investigator, Chris Serino. What the agents failed to understand was that if the civil rights of anyone had been abused, that person was Zimmerman.

Actually, Zimmerman would be smart to just keep a low profile and fade away. Getting out of Florida would be a good idea also.
big time...along with ABC NBC CBS and CNN
And Obama and his re-election campaign.
George should sue for millions and millions of monopoly money dollars.
His character has been besmirched and thanks to the parasite that runs the Department of Injustice he has indeed fallen on bad times thanks to these cretins.
Sue, sue and then sue some more. Bleed the nation dry....it’s your turn, George.
Can’t sue the Feds without their permission, and even then there’s administrative arbitration first. Good luck.
The Department of ‘justice’ hounded an innocent man for what street blacks do every day of the week...
Street blacks who are NOT innocent.
The prosecution of Zimmerman was a race act... DOJ thugs went after him because of his skin color... (alleged skin color)
Damn right he should sue.
This White House is appalled by torture only when the victim is Muslim (I’m appalled at that too - terrorists should be killed quickly). When a “white Hispanic” is suffering, this White House is far more interested in the political calculus than in anything else.
How different his life would have been since that night, if he’d just listened to the 911 operator
Zimmerman needs to stop acting stupidly and carve out a quiet life.

So many lives ruined by all those racebaiters. They all deserve to be sued.
Smart? Fade away?
Can you see how that encourages this type of behavior on the race hustlers behalf? On the DOJ? What if you’re next?
Those that altered audio tapes, and video and pictures to harm George’s defense should be sued.
Sharpton who pushed for prosecution like he did for the Duke Lacrosse team should be sued.
The Florida state prosecutor above all should be sued, she had no case, yet bowed down to Sharpton. This was Prosecutorial abuse. She should lose her law license or sent to Jail like Mike Nifong from the Duke case was
Then I wouldn't continue to expose myself by getting continually arrested and otherwise feeding the media's and government's bloodlust.
If his lawyers haven’t filed suit by now, they probably don’t have a case.
I’m sure the networks learned from the Jewell case on how to craft their stories well enough that they cant be sued.
“Those that altered audio tapes, and video and pictures to harm Georges defense should be sued.”
Absolutely, NBC should be sued for the altered 911 tapes. Too bad he can’t sue Eric Holder for a race crime.
...[Judge] Nelson said that Zimmerman failed to show the network acted with malice, according to The Associated Press.
She said the malice standard was appropriate because Zimmerman became a public figure after he shot and killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black 17-year-old, inside a gated community in Sanford, Fla., in 2012
Zimmerman “voluntarily injected his views into the public controversy surrounding race relations and public safety in Sanford...
Is that the passive, submissive life that you live?
