Wendy Dorival, who coordinated the local Neighborhood Watch Program for the Sanford Police Department, thought so highly of Zimmerman that she tried to recruit him to be a ?Citizen on Patrol,? in which he would be supplied with a police department issued patrol car and a uniform of sorts. In sharp contrast to the State?s repeated characterization of Zimmerman as a ?wannabe? cop who went over the edge in his pursuit, confrontation, and shooting of Martin, Ms. Dorival regretfully stated that Zimmerman had declined the offer.

But did she investigate his background?
Maybe he declined the offer because he knew his past would come up and he would be rejected.
