I don’t know what happened, but from the fact that the kid came from an intact family, my guess is that he was not doing anything too serious at the time of the incident. He may honestly was walking alone the street.

That isn’t to say that he was an angel, but I don’t think he was a hard-core gang member either.

I’d appreciate it if anybody has information on the kid as to his personal situation.

My understanding is that the family is not intact. What I read previously is that the kid did not live in the gated community where the shooting occurred. He was staying there temporarily with his father because he was suspended from school. He regularly lived elsewhere with his mother who was divorced from the father.

Parents were divorced - he was visiting his father in a Florida gated community. Usually, gated communities require visitors have guest passes for security. Maybe not in this case.

He was not a gang member and had a good school record in sports and academics. His mother and father appear to have been very involved in his life and maintained a good relationship.

The police should have held Zimmerman for questioning and forensics to support his claim that he shot the teen in self defense. Just because he was some sort of sponsored vigilante is not a defense.

His daddy’s girlfriend is his mom? Where was this guy living to be visiting them?

Trayvon was visiting his father and his father’s girlfriend

the fact that the kid came from an intact family, my guess

Where do you get "intact family"? My guess is that you are an idiot. Learn to read.

That's what really bothers me about this whole incident. Not one single person in the MSM has bothered to obtain a copy of the investigative report which determined that Mr. Zimmerman was not guilty of any wrong doing.

And the MSM has also neglected to investigate whether or not Trayvon Martin has a history of infractions with the local police department. Of course, if it was discovered that Mr. Martin did have ties to any gang related activities then that could possibly throw a wrench into the whole "hang Zimmerman" agenda........
