So now it's up to the media driven court to decide the outcome and I am still betting that Zimmerman will walk on a reduced charge. Just a hunch from the legal proceedings since it has not been proven that Zimmerman did not fire his gun in self defense. If this is a civil case, Zimmerman will lose by a mile since he did pursue an unarmed kid with a concealed loaded gun.
BeamOn, I agree. The prosecution did a terrible job in my opinion. They should have focused on the fact that Zimmerman followed the kid after being told not to by authorities.
