Not sure if even a change a venue would help this case. How are you going to find a non-tainted jury pool. Guam? Puerto Rico? Marshall Islands?

I'm so glad they are finally charging him. I honestly don't believe it will stick though.

I'm so glad they are finally charging him. I honestly don't believe it will stick though. There are a number of attorneys on Twitter right now trying to manage people's expectations. The consensus seems to be there is a low likelihood that Zimmerman will face murder 1 or 2, charges. They just wouldn't be able to make them stick. They all seem to believe that it will be manslaughter charges - that there is a reasonable chance that those could stick, but that there won't be any 20 year sentences.
This is all speculation btw, the special prosecutor could be going a completely different direction, we don't know what she knows. But just bear in mind, that the decision to bring charges doesn't mean Zimmerman is going to jail. Even on manslaughter charges there is always the possibility that he could be acquitted.

Yeah I know they can't to murder 1 or 2 charges because of insufficient evidence and I also fail to believe that they would have a jury that is not tainted..The world is split on this case and Reign I do feel a riot coming!!!

A few weeks ago an attorney warned of "over-charging" in the case against Zimmerman. She likened it to the Casey Anthony case where she is probably truly guilty but the charges would not stick. It was TOO HARD to prove...apparently.
I am okay with a manslaughter charge IF it means Zimmerman won't walk. We gotta choose our battles.
And yes, I also feel a riot coming. SMH.

It's about effin' time! I was so done with Zimmerman's brother trying to cast blame on Trayvon for not running from the confrontation. Bama if your brother had called 911 and then left or got back in his car we wouldn't be here!
I agree Diva. I'm okay with manslaughter. I just hope he gets something and doesn't walk. That bama will need to stay in protective custody if he goes to jail cause it's not looking good for him.
I feel a riot coming on as well. And what's up with Oklahoma. It's like it's nigra huntin' season and folks acting like this is all okay. SMH.

My heart aches for Trayvon BUT I feel sorry for Zimmerman...he is NOT going to last in prison.

He may not even go to prison. I am glad it's in the courts though. Let all the evidence come out. Man his head was bloody.
