On the night of February 26, 2012, in Sanford, Florida, United States, George Zimmerman fatally shot Trayvon Martin, a 17-year-old African-American high school student. Zimmerman, a 28-year-old man of mixed race,[Note 1] was the neighborhood watch coordinator for his gated community where Martin was visiting his relatives at the time of the shooting.[3][4][5] Zimmerman shot Martin, who was unarmed, during a physical altercation between the two. Zimmerman, injured during the encounter, claimed self-defense at his trial.
In a widely reported trial, Zimmerman was charged with murder for Martin's death, but acquitted at trial after claiming self-defense. The incident was reviewed by the Department of Justice for potential civil rights violations, but no additional charges were filed, citing insufficient evidence.

Never forget the Skype Bombing that took place during Zimmerman’s trial.
The prosecution didn’t realize they were broadcasting the DA’s Skype info to the whole word during a witness testimony, and the internet stepped in.

Wonder how many folks haven’t gotten robbed or shot as a result of this.

If this went down now, Zimmerman would be found guilty.

Visiting relatives at the time or living with his dad cause his mom kicked him out because he was getting in trouble for fighting and burglarizing all the time? I’d say the later is more accurate.

So sad.
He probably would have had his PhD in engineering by now.
