The Defense Rest: Under the Legal Lens
The people vs George Zimmerman
We’re back!
This case was the beginning of the BLM movement and this trial only happened because of the people. On February 26, 2016 Trayvon Benjamin Martin was shot and killed minutes away from his current place of residence by George Zimmerman. Because of Florida’s weird law “stand your ground,” George Zimmerman would not have ever had any charges against him. It was only because of the marches filled with thousands and Attorney Benjamin Crump. The actual trial blows my mind, like how are some of these things not a constitutional violation?
Join us next week for part 2 of the murder of Trayvon Martin.
Comment below the next trial that I should take Under the Legal lens.
