I find it interesting that many people are even thinking for a minute that Martin provoked Zimmerman. Zimmerman was told in the 911 call..NOT not to follow the suspicious individual, Interference with a Police Investigation & probable cause right there. In the 911 call he stated that the officer could call him to get his location when PD arrives on scene. Why? He was following Martin and did not know at the time where he would be further proof he was following Martin.....

Also, Neighborhood watch is a "watch & report" program, The federal and state level criminal justice code specfically prohibits a neighborhood watch "volunteer" to carry or use a firearm. That moron of a police chief had his probable cause for arrest, on that single fact alone.

I love the misguided fools who actually believe the self-defense claims of Zimmerman, The law specifically states you must be protecting "your" home, person or vehicle from a forcible felony. Even if Trevon Martin and Zimmerman were engaged in a fist fight that was more than likely instigated by Zimmerman, that is no reason for the use of deadly force. The fact that two women had attempted to give their statement to Sanford PD, the detectives told at least one witness it was Zimmerman crying for help, that is leading a witness which is very odd for a PD to do. Although I have never heard of a single case where the man with the gun is the one doing the begging and pleading. And in every case it's is always the person at the shooting end of the gun that "IS" begging and pleading.

To shoot an unarmed man or teen in self defense in a backyard that wasn't even your property is certainly illegal since there is no forcible felony in that scenario. I'm sure once the FDLE reviews this case Zimmerman will be arrested, there are several instances of probable cause that were blatently overlooked. Zimmerman is a loose cannon and did wrongfully murder a teen.
