If I were Trayvon Martins parents or his familys attorneys, I would be very nervous. And if I were the media who covered this case I would prepare to be mortified. The coverage of this case was a disgrace from day one.
To uncover this staggering fraud, Gilbert did what reporters used to do. He immersed himself in the milieu that produced Trayvon Martin. He reviewed the thousands of text messages, tweets, Facebook and Instagram postings sent and received by Martin and his friends. He interviewed George Zimmerman, the only person who knew, Martins final words that revealed the cause of Martins tragic downward spiral.
At the end of his research, Gilbert knew Trayvon Martin better than his parents did, literally. As their depositions revealed, they had no idea how Martins life descended into a violent mix of street fighting, guns, drugs, burglary, and sex. Although both parents made good incomes, their separate lives created an abyss where a home should have been, and their once promising son fell straight to the bottom of it.
Unwilling to accept their own responsibility for his demise, they took the bait promised by attorneys and the media and projected their guilt on to George Zimmerman. Although an Obama supporter and civil rights activist, the half-Hispanic Zimmerman proved to be just white enough to play the racist killer role in the unholy melodrama that followed.
In the documentary and book of the same name, the Trayvon Hoax, Gilbert shows how politicians are you listening Andrew Gillum and Barack Obama? -- exploited the ensuing racial divisions to further their political goals. The gratuitous anger the media and political class stoked led to the creation of Black Lives Matter, the parallel Ferguson hoax, and a crime wave that that has devastated black America.

Not busting your chops. Just linking.
If I remember correctly, part of the aftermath was part of the family coming to fisticuffs with another group of the family over selling memorial T-shirts, cashing in on the whole fraudulent enterprise.
Or maybe that was the fraudulent Michael Brown episode. So many fake media stories, it’s hard to keep them straight.
The election of Obama was supposed to help heal the racial divisions.
Instead as president, Obama used his position to divide America along racial lines.
I had thought many if not most felt racial hate had subsided, but as president, Obama stoked the hate.
After this America hating ass clown I no longer look at a black in a position of power without thinking, quota boy?
Unwilling to accept their own responsibility for his demise.
Remember Hillary said it takes a village.
In most cases the parents leave it up to society to deal with their unruly offspring and then cry foul when it comes to an end and they lawyer up to make some money.
tawana Brawley comes to mind, Michael brown, Freddy grey, Jesse Smollett. An avenue to make some money and notoriety with the fake media running along side them for support and encouragement. The truth eventually comes out. Those who knew from the onset are vindicated and those who supported followed and were uphauled are not interested they already made up their minds when it happened and their sticking to it.
Thank you Joel Gilbert for doing the research, writing a book, and filming a documentary.
Unfortunately, die hard Conservatives are the only people who will read it, watch it, or talk about it.
Obama could have been sold and light for all the young black man in America. Instead he was a millstone around their necks.
Hands up!
Truth is irrelevant in this story and others like it. THE narrative is what matters.
Good article although Zimmerman was NOT the first guy to get it as bad as the Scottsboro Boys. That prize must surely go to Bernie Goetz. Maybe the author is too young to remember that one?
Obama set back race relations 20 years. Minimum.
Nobody cares. The narrative has been set. Low infos will not get the news. The more informed will reject the news as it will stimulate their cognitive dissonance. Black lives matter will continue to be a thing.
TWENTY FIVE TOP QUOTES FROM THE DOJS REPORT ON THE MICHAEL BROWN SHOOTING

Yeah, the Gentle Giant’s Mom and a cousin thug went down to the scene with pipes to beat up grandma for selling T shirts at her street side make shift shirt shack.
Classy episode that was.
Obama could have been sold as a light for all the young black man in America. Instead he was a millstone around their necks.
Nonetheless, Goetz was convicted only of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree. He walked on the murder and other serious charges.
Salt and light ??
