Zimmerman verdict?

Well the trial is almost over soon the jury will make a decision and we will have an answer. It may nor not be the answer a person wants and for sure about half of the people who are interested will feel justice has been served and the rest will feel a great injustice has occurred, no matter the verdict.

If by chance the verdict is mistrial then this will happen all over again and if Zimmerman is convicted there will be an appeal, so we may be hearing about this for a long time.

End results no matter how the jury decides there will be controversy.

I for one do not envy the job they have before them.

but I don't think that the prosecution proved it beyond a reasonable doubt.

That's the problem with allowing idiots to carry guns. Stuff like this is always going to happen, and one of the main eyewitnesses ends up dead.
