In reply to the discussion: If Zimmerman prevails in the SYG hearing the Martin family can't sue. [View all]anti-alec
(420 posts)44. Zimmerman already doomed himself
with his stupid remarks and not turning himself in early enough.
The murder is known everywhere - SYG will be then shot down and removed from the books.
He committed murder. Not a justifiable murder. Murder as in extinguish life from a human person unnecessarily.
Manslaughter will be not applied there. The jury will find Zimmerman damn guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison WITHOUT parole. His life is already over.
