(541 posts)I too am hoping for a guilty verdict on the manslaughter charge.
Until last week when it was allowed that the jury consider manslaughter, I'd been worried that GZ would be acquitted on Murder 2 (I think he's guilty of murder in the first degree, but that's beside the point).
But I have a glimmer of hope that Z *will do time for murdering Trayvon, if this jury of six women consider and hand down Manslaughter.
I'm hoping that the female jury (albeit, mostly white) will have cooler heads (sans masculine bravado crap that a six man ---especially white-- jury might have) and seriously consider manslaughter. Trayvon is dead, and his mother, father, family and friends will never get him back.
And like some other DU'ers, I've only been getting news about the trial by lurking on DU... Can't read about, or watch it in the MSM.
Anxiously eyeing DU for a verdict...
