Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey plans to announce as early as Wednesday afternoon that she is charging neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, according to a law enforcement official close to the investigation.

Find out the charges which will be stiff. Obama is clearly playing the race card again. Holder singing the praises of Al Sharpton? they should both be cell mates.
The witness that saw Martin on top of Zimmerman better go into hiding. The blacks won’t rest until Zimmerman is either dead or put away for a long time. Will whites riot? hell no. IF Zimmerman walked the blacks would riot all over the US.

"Now the Martins can sue the HOA and the city of Sanford based on Florida law."

Maybe the city, but that'll be quite a stretch.

The HOA, I don't know, but it seems there would need to be some paper trail showing Zimmerman acting as an official agent. But since he's "self appointed" and all.....

“They need to have an “All Asian” jury, methinks.”

Yep, then the Asians, Hispanics, and Holder’s people can all go at it when he’s aquitted.

Yeah right.. You’re carrying a gun and a thug makes the mistake of blindsiding you with a punch. He then jumps on you and thumps your skull on the sidewalk. A struggle for your gun ensues.. You scream for someone to intervene but decide to let the thug KILL YOU with your own gun because you fear being charged by a prosecutor. /sarc.

Refraining comment until I hear the actual charges.

Good. I would respectfully suggest everyone resist the urge to comment until you find out if this story is actually true.

"This is what a lynch mob looks like!"

Inspector Kemp: A riot is an ungly thing... undt, I tink, that it is chust about time ve had vun.

The Latino community doesn’t even know this guy is Latino..they think he’s White..the media reports that he is white, the photos they show of Zimmerman are made lighter to make him look more white. He’s half hispanic yet hispanics don’t even know that

Look for gun sales to go through the roof.

Wait a second! I need to hurry up and buy more Smith & Wesson stock (SWHC)!

>>>She has to have a grand jury for a murder/manslaughter indictment.<<<

I read that only 1st degree murder requires a grand jury in Florida.

Verdict first, trial later.

I hope that the prosecutor is fully aware what damages an arrest will have on Zimmerman’s future employment opportunities. The publicly known facts cast substantial doubt on criminal liability in this case. A man’s livelihood and reputation will be severely damaged for political reasons.

[JimSEA]

You’re right. This is why Holder came out and indicated there would be no federal charges. It gives Holder the appearance of impartiality.

[Meet the New Boss]

She has to have a grand jury for a murder/manslaughter indictment.

Only for first degree murder. All first degree murder charges must be based on a grand jury indictment. All other homicide charges may be brought merely on the authority of a state attorney.

[MNDude]

why they didn’t want the grand jury. The fix is in.

[FedsRStealingOurCountryFromUs]

Wouldn’t that be funny if Washington Post is wrong? Hahaha.. The media’s remaining .001% credibility goes to NONE.

Unfortunately, this thing will be dragged out for years before the riots

Not that I have any insight into this, or anyone asked me, but.....

I think that the independent prosecutor skipped the Grand Jury because she knew that Zimmerman would get a No Bill, immediately, and that would touch off the riots. The media has worked everyone right into a froth, and CURRENTLY anything less than an immediate firing squad for this schlub will result in riots.

So, she's drawing things out. American Culture, particularly POP culture, has about a 5 minute attention span. So, she'll draw this case out until it's forgotten about. Look for the charges to quietly get dropped, or pleaded down to misdemeanor assault, or something.....then this whole thing goes away.

Until the next time.

Who tipped off the tipped off the WaPo, Sharpton or the JustUs Department?

As long as it’s pending the black pampers don’t have anything.

Sure they do. They always have something-the very existence of whites, and their resentment of white achievement as a whole.
