Seven years ago, George Zimmerman defended himself against a violent attack and the media pushed a narrative that was completely incongruous with the facts. Bill Whittle did an excellent video outlining the reality:
William A. Jacobson at Legal Insurrection has a lot more:
Seven years after Trayvon Martin shooting, the falsehoods, propaganda and misinformation are worse than ever
Seven years ago George Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin in lawful self-defense, as Martin beat Zimmerman to a bloody pulp Mixed Martial Arts style. Martin died of a single shot.
The eyewitness and forensic evidence introduced at trial corroborated Zimmerman’s account of being sucker punched in the nose, something Martin had bragged in text messages, kept from the jury, was his preferred method of starting fights. An eyewitness witnessed the beating, and the forensics were completely consistent with Zimmerman’s account.
Zimmerman did not have to rely on the Stand Your Ground law because SYG only addresses the duty to retreat, something Zimmerman could not do because he was pinned to the ground on his back with his head being smashed.
Much more at the site. The bias in today's media is unreal.
