The investigaton I want to see...

While we are all relieved that - through public pressure - george zimmerman will get his day in court, I truly hope the feds are investigating the original "investigation" and what caused the locals to overule the detective and not charge him. what phone calls were made by his dad? why was said dad at the crime scene - the same crime scene where witnesses had their statements "corrected"?

The answer to THOSE questions are already known; but won't be acted upon until after the trial.

The telling point will be when/if the Sanford Police Chiefs "temporary stepping down" ends.

i bet those facts are known to the fbi by now - and the chief's future is a tell.

This county's corruption factor is so high that it wouldn't take much of an investigation to discover the factors that make it tick. All it needs is someone willing to investigate it.

Thanks for posting. We need to keep that thought alive.

is probably overwhelming. i doubt these yahoos ever thought they would draw the attention they did and the whole trayvon situation would just be business as usual in their little corrupt universe. but it wasn't. there is no telling what the feds might turn up in that department.

In the back you'll see where I'm posting evidence of what is a hushed up conspiracy case. I'm not finished with it yet. They cover up by using half-facts and pseudo law. Not difficult to control the right-wing public opinion if you fool them into thinking that they have a cause that is bigger than the law. But when you remove all that dressing, it's institutional corruption.

...because as soon as a couple of cops squealed in exchange for not getting the long prison time, there'd be no problem convicting Zimmerman. Slam dunk with all the cops testifying against him.
