George Zimmerman Faces Lee Oswald Type Justice

WHITE HOUSE MUSLIM

The special prosecutor investigating the shooting death of unarmed Florida teenager Trayvon Martin has ruled out using a grand jury in the case, meaning her office alone will decide whether to charge shooter George Zimmerman with a crime.

The case has captured national attention, largely because of race. Martin, 17, was black and Zimmerman, 28, who has not been charged, is Hispanic.

Police in the town of Sanford declined to arrest Zimmerman after the shooting, saying they found no evidence to contradict his account that he acted in self-defense.

The state attorney previously investigating the shooting, Norm Wolfinger, had said the case would go to a grand jury on April 10.

That grand jury would have decided whether to charge Zimmerman but Wolfinger removed himself from the case on March 22 and was replaced by Angela Corey.
