“…we are not asking that he is convicted. We only want to have him arrested, so we will have the day in court, and this won’t be swept under the rug. That’s just simple justice. That is all his mother and father have asked for from the very beginning. We are not asking that he [Zimmerman] be convicted; We are asking that he be arrested”

Attorney for Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton
(Quoted to Piers Morgan on 4/4/2012)

We simply wanted an arrest; we wanted nothing more than an arrest. We wanted nothing more, nothing less; We just wanted an arrest, and we got it, and I say thank you.

(Reuters) – A former employee of Florida State Attorney Angela Corey’s office plans to file a whistleblower lawsuit against George Zimmerman’s prosecutors, his attorney [Wes White] told Reuters on Tuesday.

The action will put pressure on Corey, who already faces criticism from some legal experts for the unsuccessful prosecution of the case, which led to the acquittal of Zimmerman for shooting unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman’s defense has also called for sanctions against her and her prosecution team.
Ben Kruidbos, Corey’s former director of information technology, was fired after testifying at a pre-trial hearing on June 6 that prosecutors failed to turn over potentially embarrassing evidence extracted from Martin’s cell phone to the defense, as required by evidence-sharing laws. (more…)

NEW YORK – George Zimmerman’s lawyers were spotted dining at one of New York’s most expensive restaurants on Wednesday, just days after securing a controversial not guilty verdict for their client.

In the run-up to the recent court case the defense attorneys Mark O’Mara and Don West regularly asked the public for donations towards Zimmerman’s legal costs but money certainly wasn’t an issue as they enjoyed lunch at Nello.
The exclusive Upper East Side joint is well known for being ‘absurdly expensive’ and is typically a hangout for celebrities – such as Jay Z – and wannabe socialites.
The party was spotted drinking champagne before sitting down to lunch at the Italian restaurant. Joining them for their celebratory lunch was criminal lawyer and CNN analysis Mark Geragos, who has been a regular fixture on the channel throughout the case and was highly complementary of their work.

Things are settling down. Thankfully.
Let me give you some perspective.   Remember, we welcome participation – but we do not welcome a site reflecting a non-mannered sports bar after your team wins the FA Cup (look it up).    We have a set site security process of first comment approval.  Hence,we are generally at maximum capacity with inbound site traffic in the range of 3,000 people per hour.  (that’s generally where we max out efficiency)
For the past 3 days, we have been running around 15,000 inbound visitors per hour EVERY HOUR.    To say the site has been running sketchy is a slight understatement.  The admins have been valiant,  I would say incredibly so.   In just trying to manage the volume of trafficked comments.   (more…)
