In reply to the discussion: The Most Important Question in the Trayvon Martin Case is Being Ignored... [View all]nadeltanz
(4 posts)9. Wolfinger and Lee
The trick is Wolfinger and his office said they had nothing to do with the decision and claim it's not standard operating procedure for the Police to even ask their permission. The Sanford Police tell the Martin family Wolfinger made the decision. It looks this is the way the 2 Offices work to keep the Public in the dark as to who made the decision. Corey may decide not to reveal what happened. These folk protect their own for the most part. However, some in the Public realize that the Judicial System in this Country and all across it is broken as in corrupt. It takes the Public to correct this corruption, and that is why the Media covering this from all angles extensively, is most important.

Exactly. The earlier cases didn't involve Zimmerman or his family (that we know of)

Good . . . I hope that they did a competent job collecting the rest of the evidence

I still think that second degree is going to be difficult to prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
