Pro-Criminal, Anti-Freedom

This is just disgusting:

Lawyers defending the neighborhood watch volunteer charged in the fatal shooting of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin have launched a “witch hunt” by seeking Martin’s school and social media records, the family’s lawyer said on Monday.

“I think certainly it is a witch hunt to try to find something to attack the character of a dead child and it’s completely irrelevant because his school records had nothing to do with him (George Zimmerman) shooting Trayvon Martin in the heart on February 26,” said Martin family attorney Ben Crump.

Zimmerman lawyer Mark O’Mara announced on his website last week that he had subpoenaed Martin’s entire school file from the Miami-Dade public school district, including test scores, any disciplinary actions and attendance records.

Since day one the Martin Family has been depicting Trayvon Martin as an angelic little boy who was just out for a walk to get some candy and a soda, who was gunned down in cold blood by George Zimmerman, who they have attempted to depict as a racist loose cannon.

Of course the facts of the case point that this is false. Zimmerman doesn’t even have a speeding ticket to his name, is from an amazingly diverse family and community, and was severely injured before he fired a single shot into Martin’s heart while Martin was beating his head into the concrete sidewalk.

We know Martin had drugs in his system at the time of the attack, he of course was not the small boy shown in the various stock photos and marketing items, and he was shot on a school night miles from his school district because he was under suspension.

The evidence points one way, but hard evidence is needed for a trial, and of course the Martin side has been on an over-zealous lynch mob since the start. Now two wrongs don’t make a right, so I hope the Zimmerman defense team uses discretion in the information acquired. I don’t think its very relevant if Martin was a bad student, or even if he was cutting class, as that doesn’t mean much in this case.

But if Martin had troubles with drugs, violence, and other serious crimes that points to a certain character and helps us see what his motivations might have been, and could GREATLY support George Zimmerman’s consistent and supported story.

This is not a witch hunt, this is keeping an innocent man out of prison by showing all the facts!

    The ‘lawyer’ for the family certainly doesn’t mind pointing out Zimmerman’s past; including his domestic issues that resulted in no charges being filed.

    So isn’t it a little hypocritical to say Martin’s recent past; including a possible assault on another person shouldn’t be brought up?

    Complicit in all this is the majority of the media. The ones who love to dig up the past and spread the information far and wide. They aren’t doing it this time because it doesn’t fit their anti-gun narrative.

  2. If you read the GZLegalCase.com blog, Zimmerman’s lawyer addressed the issue of what would be released.

    “In the case of Trayvon Martin’s school records, they are protected and will NOT be part of the public record, without appropriate court order.”

      Well I think that exposes the lies and dirty pool on its face.

      They know that Martin was not a saint, and very likely was assaulting Zimmerman that night, and they don’t want to lose their case.

      Still might as “Witch Hunt” and “attacking the character of a dead child” are being presented for the exact reason they protest.

      To make Zimmerman appear crass and hateful with no evidence to support it.

    This whole case is going to collapse. Even the State Judiciary said that the Judge in the case needs to recuse himself because of his prejudice against Zimmerman. So if this even makes it to Trial, there are going to be so many grounds for Appeal that Zimmerman will be let go.

    That is, if he survives being put into the State Pen while his Appeal goes through the Court System.

  4. Bill Baldwin says:

    Keep in mind that if the prosecutor paints the deceased as an angelic, spotless, choir boy just walking home while saying his prayers, the defense will have to show otherwise. It’s unfortunate for the deceased family, but the prosecutor has to be kept honest in front of the jury, and if she’s shown to be lying to the jury on one aspect of the case, how can she be believed on anything else.
