TM: The defense attorney wants to put in the potential jury’s mind that Trayvon was this bad kid that was on heavy drugs and he was all off into guns and my thing is he was 17 years old. He had just turned 17. If he was that bad of a kid, why wasn’t he ever in any trouble with the law?
MDSPD falsification of police reports

Of course he did get suspended from school but that didn’t make him a bad kid. If you take a poll on high school students, I guarantee you 65-70% of the high school students have tried marijuana.
Only 40% have smoked weed. However only 6.5% smoke weed daily and only 5.5% have abused cough syrup.

I can’t say yeah Trayvon had a gun and I knew about it because I didn’t know that Trayvon. I didn’t know about Trayvon with a gun.

And I’m sure every parent in this country can’t tell you what their child does when they’re away from home or what their daily activities are because we’re not around our kids 24 hours a day.
When he was in high school, I knew all of my kid's activities, all of the websites visited, all of the TV shows watched, all of the music on his mp3 player, and I knew where he was 24/7.

So if your child does something while he’s not around you, you can’t speak on it.
Out of sight, out of mind?

All we can do is be hopeful that the things we instilled in our children will outweigh temptation.
