The accused George Zimmerman

If it had been up to NBC and the prosecutor in the Trayvon Martin shooting, George Zimmerman would have already been seated in Florida’s notorious “Old Sparky.”

Edited and doctored tapes of a 911 call between George Zimmerman and police dispatchers by NBC news, were used to make it look as if George Zimmerman was a racist and his shooting of Trayvon Martin racially motivated.

On top of that, just released colored photos of George Zimmerman, right after his confrontation with Trayvon Martin, graphically show a bloodied and battered George Zimmermanm. A stark contrast from the previously released black and white photos by the Florida prosecutor that did not show the extent of Zimmermans facial injuries.

This type of evidence should have been willingly given to Zimmermans legal team by the Florida prosecutor. But it took months of legal maneuvering to get these pictures, which hugely bolsters Zimmermans account that he acted in self defense.Even famed legal expert Alan Dershowitz thinks the prosecution against Zimmerman has been acting unethically. See Dershowitz

If the public and Zimmermans defense team had access to these photos originally, many legal experts doubt charges could have been rightfully filed against Zimmerman in the first place. There is absolutely no doubt that if these color photos of Zimmermans beaten and bloodied face taken shortly after his confrontation with Martin would have been revealed, it would have defused the racial tensions that were boiling over.

But fortunately for Mr. Zimmerman, a brilliant attorney has come to his defense and is unraveling the web of innuendo, slander and withheld evidence being used against him. Mark O’Mara has taken command of this case and will make sure George Zimmerman isn’t the state of Floridas, or main stream medias, sacrificial goat. See previous Trayvon Martin story

In a lawsuit filed a few days ago against NBC, the Zimmerman legal team stated:

"NBC saw the death of Trayvon Martin not as a tragedy but as an opportunity to increase ratings, and so set about to create the myth that George Zimmerman was a racist and predatory villain." "Because of NBC's deceptive and exploitative manipulations, the public wrongly believes that Zimmerman used a racial epithet while describing Martin during the call to the dispatcher on that fateful night," the suit says.

The lawsuit accuses NBC of sensationalizing/manipulating a "racial powder keg that would result in months, if not years, of topics for their failing news program, particularly the plummeting ratings for their ailing Today Show."

The edited recordings included “multiple deletions, removed intervening dialogue between Zimmerman and the dispatcher, and juxtaposed unrelated content "to make it appear that Zimmerman was a racist, and that he was racially profiling Trayvon Martin," the lawsuit says.

If Mark O’Mara can prove his charges against NBC, we hope he can get a huge payday for his client as well as himself. NBC got caught trying to pervert the news we receive and manipulate public opinion.

If it is found that the Florida prosecutor willingly withheld crucial evidence in order to weaken George Zimmermans defense and cast him in a false light, then Mr. Zimmerman should demand justice for himself.

We saw another prosecutors office try to railroad innocent people into prison with withheld and manipulated evidence, in order to make a name for himself and gain political favor. North Carolina District Attorney Ken Nifong was disbarred and put in jail for withholding evidence that would have proved Duke Lacrosse team members to be innocent of charges.

Attorney Mark O’Mara is no slouch and is probably already sounding the alarm bells in this case against his client. What other evidence has this prosecutor failed to provide him in his defense of George Zimmerman?

From reading the various accounts relating to this case, Ed,s above report cannot be contradicted as such. Its factual and reassures my personal opinion on justice by law being sacrificed to that of a mainly Media centred, biased evidence.There are 2 victims of this affair whose basic rights for justice are being denied accordingly.When I lived in New York I remember how a girl called Tawana Brawley,s affair was hijacked by left wing and self interested personal gain by others. The Coronal Ken North hearing etc.In recent times incidentally Florida the beautiful little angel Caylee Anthony injustice.Presently a young man is dead,another practically convicted by a large self interested Media biased reporting. The left using it as a propaganda racial issue .Where in all this does the American pride and confidence, in their proclaimed World superior Justice System prevail.

Reminds me of the disgraceful lying actions of the Prosecutor in the Duke Univ lacrosse case a few years back.

Altho' I've leaned left more often than not, this From The Right article is spot on. It is easy to start a war (or a confrontation), not so easy to end one--often resulting in tragic death. Most soldiers will tell that one's thought processes in the heat of battle are significantly different from every-day ones. This is a tragedy all around, but the media circus -both left & right- have made it a polarizing shameful event for our country. Let's hope fairness & facts prevail in our judicial system.
