86. We will not get one either

I'd say test his hair but since his head is shaved you cannot get a drug analysis from him, ever. Very convenient for him. And I didn't know that being a teenager who had smoked pot at some point in the previous 30 days was a capital offense. Sorry, I guess we let Mr. Zimmerman get on with his life, armed and chasing young black men who happen to walk down the street in his neighborhood looking "suspicious". And wearing hoodies. Why don't they save this stuff for court? I don't understand why so much is being made public by the authorities. They are going to have to move this trial, and even then I don't know how they will ever find a jury who hasn't been inundated with stories on this case. It will be a challenge to get a verdict.
