here's your innocent child George Zimmerman's defense team is painting an unflattering picture of Trayvon Martin through his text messages, which it released yesterday—and they contain a haunting warning from a friend: "Boy don’t get one planted in ya chest," the friend writes. The text came three months before Trayvon was shot, the Miami Heraldreports. The same friend earlier said Trayvon was "turning into a lil hoodlum." ("No not at all," Trayvon replied.) In another text, Trayvon says he was suspended from school over fighting; later, he says he fought a friend who "snitched on me." "I lost da 1st round :) but won da 2nd nd 3rd," he says. In other texts, however, he suggests that he got in trouble for fights he wasn't involved in. Several later messages appear to discuss getting a gun, with questions like "U got heat??" and a later question posed to him: "You want a 22 revolver?" The texts also contain discussions of marijuana; Trayvon gets called a "weedhead." The Heralddescribes the release as "part of Zimmerman's defense plan to put posthumously on trial." Prosecutors say the text messages, as well as Trayvon's school records and some photos, aren't pertinent evidence; images like one of him displaying gold teeth play on "stereotypical and close-minded thinking." The Orlando Sentinel has more on the defense's argument for the evidence (for instance, it's expected to argue that marijuana references are admissible because Zimmerman said in his 911 call that Trayvon was acting like he was high). The judge will decide whether to allow the materials.

does this sound like your kid ? you libs sure know how to raise kids. trayvon the 'innocent' child lololololololol get out into the real world. the world is better off with this human trash dead, just think of all the lives in the future that would have been abused by this punk, Zim is a hero. Trayvon would have been in and out of prison and how many really innocent people would he have robbed and killed One of Trayvon’s cellphone pictures shows two teens about to square off against one another as a third stands in the middle like a referee. Trayvon said he fought a rival who “snitched on me.” Trayvon: “I lost da 1st round :) but won da 2nd nd 3rd.” Friend: “Ohhh So It Wass 3 Rounds? Damn well at least yu wonn lol but yuu needa stop fighting.” Trayvon: “Nay im not done with fool….. he gone hav 2 see me again.” Friend: “Nooo… Stop, yuu waint gonn bee satisified till yuh suspended again, huh?” Trayvon told another friend at the time that his mother wanted him to move in with his dad after he was suspended. “Da police caught me outta skool,” Trayvon wrote. Months later, Trayvon appeared to get into trouble again, but suggested on Jan. 6, 2012, that he was an innocent bystander: “‘I was watcn a fight nd a teacher say I hit em.” The following month he complained he got in trouble for something “I didn’t do.” In between these messages, he appears to flirt with a girl and talk extensively about smoking marijuana, or “kush.” One friend called him a “WEEDHEAD.” Trayvon’s troubles appeared to get worse and, on Feb. 13, he explained to a friend that he was serving “10 dayz” of suspension. Five days later, he repeatedly appears to inquire about a gun with a friend: “U got heat??” Hours later he was asked by text: “You want a 22 revolver?” The friend who sent the message said it was bought by “my mommy.” On Feb. 21, Trayvon appeared to be heading to Sanford to live with his father. But he hadn’t lost interest in guns. “U wanna share a .380?” he asked one friend. Hours after that, someone who appears to be his father sent him text messages about staying in Sanford. “Show much respect to [redacted] and adjust to my Lady & [redacted]. Show them that you a good kid and you want positive things around you,” his father, Tracy Martin, wrote to Trayvon. Read more here: miamiherald.com

State Attorney Angela Corey fires information technology director who raised concerns .......................................................................................... State Attorney Angela Corey fired her office’s information technology director Friday after he testified last month about being concerned prosecutors did not turn over information to George Zimmerman’s defense team in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin. On the same day attorneys finished their closing arguments in that nationally watched trial, a state attorney investigator went to Ben Kruidbos’ home about 7:30 a.m. to hand-deliver a letter stating Kruidbos “can never again be trusted to step foot in this office.” Read more at Jacksonville.com: jacksonville.com (Excerpt) Read more at jacksonville.com ...

>> The burden on Mr. Zimmerman to justify the use of deadly force is not one he will meet. "If a defendant was not engaged in an unlawful activity and was attacked where he or she was allowed to be, then the defendant has no duty of retreat and has a right to use force, or even deadly force, if the defendant (under those circumstances) reasonably believed that his or her use of force was necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm. " No reasonable person, looking at the fact that Zimmerman had beating injuries and Trayvon didn't, should be able to conclude that he was unjustified in using deadly force.
