    RC> Zimmerman was tried and convicted by the press before the   
    RC> real trial began.   
      
    As compared to his being exonerated by politicians and his   
    father's buddies before the investigation was completed.   
      
    RC> There are also cases involving role reversals that didnt   
    RC> gain the media monsters attention. Two black teenagers   
      
    IOW, excuse one because another happened. What does media   
    attention matter? The only reason Martin got media attention was   
    Zimmerman was let go, without even an attempt to bring it to   
    trial, despite two cops writing it up as manslaughter.   
      
    How much do you know about the white man in Toledo they just   
    arrested in the disappearance of a young white child? The child   
    is believed to be dead, and at the least they do have a good   
    child endangerment charge against the man and the girl's mother.   
      
    RC> A black man part of a neighborhood watch program shoots and   
    RC> kills a white assailant, he was tried and acquitted..   
      
    Yes, if he was truly an assailant.   
      
    RC> The Justice system only works when the verdict/decision   
    RC> goes our way!!!   
      
    How about the case gets investigated deeply? How about the   
    father's status as a retired judge, and the mother's position as   
    a court clerk, are not a consideration? How about the   
    prosecutor's don't shut the case down when two cops have written   
    it up as manslaughter, without further investigation?
