They don't need to arrest you for a crime directly after it took place. In same cases they can investigate more in depth first before considering charging people. In some cases they bring in the district attorney's office, don't they?



Well, isn't that the governor's job? When his citizens are nearly threatening to riot shouldn't step in and insist another look be taken?

I don't give a rat's ass about this. The case went through the justice system, and eventually someone somewhere for whatever reason decided to press charges.

That's. The. Way. Our. Legal. System. Works.



Sure there is. An armed man stalked a kid for seventeen minutes, even after the kid ran away from him. He killed him. He needs to pay for this. Period.

If Zimmerman stayed in his truck and waited for the police, none of this would have happened. Instead, he went out with a firearm and TWO flashlights to play police officer.
