Not Guilty!
Zimmerman cleared in shooting of Trayvon Martin
George Zimmerman was cleared of all charges Saturday in the shooting of Trayvon Martin....
The six-member, all-woman jury deliberated for more than 15 hours over two days before reaching their decision Saturday night.
Defense attorneys said the case was classic self-defense, claiming Martin knocked Zimmerman down and was slamming the older man's head against the concrete sidewalk when Zimmerman fired his gun.
"We're ecstatic with the results," defense attorney Mark O'Mara after the verdict. "George Zimmerman was never guilty of anything except protecting himself in self-defense."
And, protecting yourself is still not a crime!
Kudos to the six nameless, but courageous, ladies who made up the jury in this case. Sequestered from their homes and families for nearly three weeks, these ladies refused to be intimidated or misled by "the scheme team."
Mark O'Mara gets an appropriate and well deserved shot in at the irresponsible way that the media handled this case near the end of this video interview:
