This case information was forwarded to me by a prosecutor for the City of Dallas, Texas who highlighted some similarities between this case and George’s situation. It’s a little long but IMO it is interesting.

http://www.tampabay.com/stand-your-grou ... s/case_120

The shooter in his own neighborhood saw a truck speeding through his neighborhood and called 911.

Zimmerman saw Trayvon in his neighborhood who he viewed as suspicious based on Trayvon’s behavior.

The shooter in this cased called 911, who was told by the dispatcher to get the truck’s tag number. The shooter got his gun jumped on his bike and pursued/followed the driver of the truck.

Zimmerman called 911, who was told by the dispatcher to let him know if Trayvon did anything else. Zimmerman also following the guidelines of the NW manual felt that it was important to maintain a visual of the Trayvon in order to give the arriving officer Trayvon’s location. When Trayvon ran Zimmerman exited his truck with his concealed weapon which he had a permit to carry and pursued/followed Trayvon

When the shooter reached the home where the truck was parked one of the passenger got out of the truck and punched the shooter in the face knocking the shooter off of his bike and a one-sided fight occurred which left the shooter in fear of his life who pulled his gun and shot his attacker in the head killing him.

When Zimmerman could no longer see Trayvon Martin and finished his call with the dispatcher he retreated and headed back to his truck where he was confronted by Trayvon Martin who punched him in the face knocking him to the ground breaking his nose. Based on the injuries to Zimmerman’s body and those to Trayvon’s body there was a one-sided fight which left Zimmerman in fear of his life who pulled his gun and shot his attacker in the heart killing him.

Prosecutors filed manslaughter charges against the shooter, but a Hillsborough County judge later granted the shooter immunity and dismissed the charge. The judge said the shooter was in a place where he had the right to be and had the right to defend himself while retreating from a confrontation.

The prosecutor has filed 2nd degree murder charges against Zimmerman, the evidence shows that even though Zimmerman followed Trayvon Martin at the time of the attack Zimmerman was in fact retreating to his truck. The evidence also shows that there was a one-sided fight leaving Zimmerman in fear of his life. Even though Martin was unarmed the evidence shows that he was more physically fit than Zimmerman and a witness has stated that in his opinion Martin was in control of the fight at all times.

The evidence also shows that Zimmerman was in a place where he had a right to be, and based on Florida self-defense statute Zimmerman had the right to defend himself while retreating from a confrontation.

It's kind of amusing seeing how much hypocrisy is out there today. The same people who were giggling at the accidental release of George's school records that were subpoena'ed by the State, are attacking O'Mara for going for Trayvon's records.

Included are claims that this "proves O'Mara has no case", and so he's "trying to assassinate Trayvon's character", and hoping that the State blocks the acquisition of those records.

It totally proves that they have no desire for anything remotely resembling a fair trial. They want a lynching, evidence be-damned.

The Defense has begun its own discovery process now that the State has delivered substantially all of its discovery in the case against George Zimmerman. To date, there are still a number of items that the State has not submitted to the Defense that we feel are relevant to the case. We will be seeking these items and evidence through all appropriate means.

Our first request is a series of Subpoenas for Production of Documents requesting school records for Trayvon Martin. In the coming weeks, we will be issuing subpoenas for other items including potentially relevant data from social media platforms, reports related to chain of custody to key evidence, interviews and more.

It has become our practice to post to our website legal documents related the case as they become public record, and this will continue to be the case with our discovery requests. Moreover, any discovery we submit that becomes public record will also be posted on our website. 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.

Much of Trayvon's disciplinary history has already been made public.

The 17-year-old, who was staying with his father's girlfriend in Sanford, was on suspension from school at the time of the shooting because of an empty marijuana baggie. Though he was never arrested, he'd been in trouble before.

The Miami Herald reported that a school police officer searched Trayvon's book bag in October and found women's jewelry, as well as a screwdriver, which authorities described as a burglary tool. He was not disciplined for that but was suspended because, a day or so earlier, a school resource officer saw him deface a door, the Herald reported.

Dr. Phil promotes the narrative...

Another distortion of the facts and a continuation of the narrative.

“We’ve come up on the six month anniversary of this…I am very concerned about what’s going to happen with this case. If this does fall out of the headlines… it’s going to be open season on these young African-American men in America”…

Its been awhile since I visited here. I was caught up in the DP trial.

Re the Trayvon school records, etc. If TM was the near perfect soon to be aeronautics flight school attendee, why not let his records go public? If it was my call and my son's character was being questioned, and I knew his records would prove him to be of stellar character, I'd say, expose away.

BTW, if rumor is to be believed Tracy is about to become a new daddy.
