There was a lot of circumstantial evidence that the state failed to exploit. That, and the only other eye-witness is dead.
Did the system work? Yes. But for the prosecution, it was a case of garbage in, garbage out. And Stand Your Ground and vigilanteism just got a big-ass endorsement (and I live in a state that just made SYG even more dangerous).

Yes, and there was discovery evidence that was withheld from the Defense until it was too late to confirm so itwas denied.
The Stand Your Ground provision was not accessed just self defense. And there was no vigilanteism just a man concerned with his community .

So? Because the defense decided not to invoke it, it's moot? I don't think so.

Two words, Dave: Bull. Sh¡t!
For a lot of people reflecting the outcome of the trial, they see a white man with a concealed gun, gracious, shooting a young black child being tried with a jury of white women . Found not guilty. It just can't be.

Agreed... if there was no vigilanteism then WHY did MrZ follow and confront TM after told NOT TO ?? The guy is a Dirty Harry wanna-be* !
*complete with the "Do you feel lucky, punk?" attitude !! BTW I think they should change MrZ's concealed weapons permit to permission to carry a concealed grenade launcher..
