In law there is a concept called case law. In case law judges and others can affect the rights of citizens and how citizens are treated by the police and others. Hence the attention on such cases.

Obviously, your racial biases preclude you from seeing facts and truth

You know how the legal system in the US works right?

George Zimmerman: Zimmerman's lawyer to get first look at Trayvon Martin evidence today - Orlando Sentinel

Most names were redacted from the document, but six civilian witnesses were listed: Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin— parents of the alleged victim, Trayvon Martin — as well as Trayvon's brother, Jahvarius Fulton; Zimmerman's neighbor, Frank Taaffe; his friend, Joe Oliver; and his father, Robert Zimmerman.
What's wrong with Jahvarius? How is Henry better?

Huh?

kill: Cause the death of (a person, animal, or other living thing).

So Trayvon Martin's dead body with a bullet in it from Zimmerman's gun is not evidence that Zimmerman killed him? How else did the boy die? Skittle poisoning?

Why would Zimmerman try to apologize to Martin's family?

Really? What race am I? What racial biases do I show?

And what is the "truth" in your view?

All too well, which is why I am glad they finally arrested George Zimmerman.

I didn't say he was convicted of anything yet - just that he killed Trayvon. Do you dispute this?

I read your views on this case in other threads.... you clearly have a huge bias and aversion to facts

He apologized to the family for their loss, not for killing him

You are quite right, I heard that Martin was going go in the first round of the NFL draft after he got finished competing in the Olympics.

As for Zimmerman being middle-aged. God help me because if 28 is middle-aged, at 60 I am practically Methuselah!

It is clear that Martin was the attacker and Zimmerman was only defending himself.
Perhaps you should explain your clarity to the state's attorney.

There has also been several attacks on innocent white people by gangs of blacks.

What was their punishment? Or do you close you eyes because they are black?
Well, if they have been arrested I would suspect that it is a bit early to know what their punishment would be if they are convicted of the charges. But if or when they are arrested, charged, and tried their punishment should be whatever specific charge calls for.

Anything else?
