George Zimmerman’s Civil Lawsuit Dismissed Without Any Discovery

In the J6 Pipe Bomber case, I saw the possibility of Pam Bondi, her friend and race-baiter, Benjamin Crump, and Deep State legal shenanigans being reunited. That got me wondering, "whatever happened to George Zimmerman’s civil case for him being framed by Benjamin Crump's substitution of a fake witness at trial?"

In another triumph for the Deep State, Zimmerman’s case was transferred from Republican Central Florida to Democrat Tallahassee, whereupon it was strangled WITHOUT Zimmerman ever getting to depose Crump or Rachel Jeantel (the rotund imposter) or Brittany Diamond Eugene (the attractive, actual girlfriend of Trayvon Martin).

All I could find was this very curiously worded AP story. It just refers to the dismissal order having been "filed more than two weeks ago." Failing to state the actual date and not linking the order seem designed to discourage transparency.

Also bizarre is the "transfer" of the case for the convenience of "some of the participants." The only defendant I could find who probably lived in Tallahassee was Benjamin Crump. It's hard to conceive it being legal to move the case at the inconvenience of the plaintiff and all the other defendants (who I think live near Miami). Also, legally there's a strong presumption for venue remaining where the plaintiff selected it.

Finally, the case was allegedly dismissed because Zimmerman couldn't "adequately state a claim for fraud." The trial court in a motion to dismiss has to accept the allegations in the plaintiff's petition to be true. On the face of it, Zimmerman's petition adequately alleged fraud. Whether he could offer PROOF is another matter...but not subject to a motion to dismiss WITHOUT the chance to gather proof.

I contacted the AP reporter on this case. Despite being responsive on other matters, he declined to answer my questions about Judge Cooper's unusual order.

With this line-up, we won't ever know what really happened in the attempt to frame George Zimmerman. The same is likely true with the J6 pipe "bomb" case.

Judge Tosses Zimmerman Lawsuit

Judge John Cooper in Tallahassee dismissed all counts against all defendants in the lawsuit filed by Zimmerman against Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin; attorney Ben Crump, who had represented the family; and others.
In his order, the judge wrote that Zimmerman had failed to show “any fraudulent representation” and said any further arguments in the case would be futile.
“There can be no claim for conspiracy to defraud if there is no adequately stated claim for fraud,” Cooper wrote in the order filed more than two weeks ago.
The other defendants in the lawsuit included HarperCollins Publishers, which had published a book Martin’s parents wrote about the case; Brittany Diamond Eugene; and Rachel Jeantel.
According to Zimmerman’s lawsuit, Brittany Diamond Eugene didn’t want to testify that she had been talking to Martin before he was killed. So her half-sister, Rachel Jeantel, pretended that she was talking to the teen before he was fatally shot. Jeantel ended up testifying at Zimmerman’s 2013 trial in Sanford, Florida.
The lawsuit claimed that Trayvon Martin’s parents, along with Crump, participated in the conspiracy in an effort to get charges filed against Zimmerman, have him tried and “destroy his good will and reputation in he community.” Zimmerman also claimed the defendants portrayed him as a racist murderer who racially profiled Martin. Martin was Black. Zimmerman’s father is white and his mother is Hispanic.
Zimmerman was acquitted during a 2013 trial, which focused attention on race and Florida’s “stand your ground” self-defense law that allows people to use force without retreating if they feel threatened.
The case was originally filed in 2019 in state court in central Florida’s Polk County, but it was later transferred to state court in Tallahassee to accommodate some of the participants.

The fact that Ben Crump has a law license is an indictment of the Florida Bar.

Agree. It's an indictment of the system that no effort was ever made to investigate whether or not the prosecution put a fake witness on the stand.

If anyone wants to understand the importance and significance of the deception in the Trayvon Martin case, I highly recommend this documentary:

I suspect that I get downvoted automatically by some people, but does anyone who has looked into it doubt that Rachel Jeantel was a fake witness?

Is this based off of the fact that this Witness was the prosecution's witness and not crumps? And wouldn't this be the same office that would go after Crump for suborning perjury

Sorry Goon, I'm not following your question. What's "this"?

Was there a dispositive motion filed? And a timely opposition?

Frankly your guess is as good as mine. As bad as AP's reporting is, I suspect they would have written: "Judge Cooper granted the Defendants' UNOPPOSED Motion to Dismiss."

I talked to Zimmerman’s original attorney who told me there hadn't been any discovery.

Okay so…if he claimed fraud, how was he defrauded? All I’m seeing is a criminal case for perjury.

Boosie, I respect your opinion. Have you ever watched the Trayvon Hoax? If not, I would appreciate you watching it sometime when you can and let me know what you think.

You can get the gist by watching the 10 minutes starting at the 34:00 mark.

Don't know where you are seeing that.

This was a civil case for the parties defrauding the court by putting on a witness they knew to be fake. There has never been perjury charges filed...or even investigated.

In researching this, I came across this 2019 post in O-T Lounge. Based on how much interest there was, I thought some would want to know what happened to Zimmerman’s case.

Ask George himself. He’s full of himself so he’ll probably answer you.

Also, how can a civil case filed in FL get moved to TN?

Where do people come up with these "facts?" It was moved to Tallahassee not TN.

fricking Community Relations Service strikes again. The great polisher of racial turds since it came into being as a result of LBJ's Civil Rights Act.

The gift that keeps on giving. I think they are trying to defund and end it, but I don't think it's official yet.

Yup. I think this is a criminally under reported story.

That's what I was wondering/asking about, in a way.

For Crump and the witnesses, since they were the prosecutors witness, to have defrauded him (guessing they are indeed the defendants) isn't perjury required?

Seems the fraud was by the prosecutor and perjury by Crump and company. I.e. did the judge claim or had as an influence that Zimmerman was damaged only by the prosecutor, protected by qualified immunity, and not the defendants directly?

You completely misunderstood what I was saying. What I said was there is no fraud here but there is a lot of perjury going on. Some might argue that perjury is fraud but it’s already called perjury so why confuse the issue with calling it fraud. Z’s lawyers did it to get it in the court and it didn’t work out, because it’s not fraud. That’s what the judgement was here, perjury isn’t fraud. AFAIK you can’t sue someone for perjury. But someone should have gone to jail over that shite
