"In June 1944, 14-year-old George Stinney, was convicted and put to death by the electric chair for the murders of two girls ages 7 and 11. Stinney was questioned in a small room, alone – without his parents, without an attorney. Therefore, people believe Stinney was coerced into confessing the murders. Stinney was then rushed to trial and after a two-hour trial and a 10-minute jury deliberation, Stinney was convicted of murder and sentenced to die. Stinney became the youngest person in modern times to be put to death. 70 years after his death, Stinney was exonerated."
There was an investigation and a lot of media pressure to charge Zimmerman. despite everything and no doubt despite the wishes of the court, he was cleared.
Are you against justice? Do you think Zimmerman should have been hung just because he's white and Martin was black?
Getting into a fist fight with an unarmed person then pulling out a gun and killing that person is wrong.
I think he should have been hung for acting as a vigilante.
The reason Zimmerman was cleared is because the prosecutor was pressured into bringing more severe charges requiring a higher standard of evidence. Had the prosecutor not caved Zimmerman would have been charged with something like manslaughter instead of murder and would have served jail time. The reason for this entire clusterf@#k is that Zimmerman was a racist @$$hole, Martin lost his sh#t and beat the cr#p out of Zimmerman, and the prosecutor caved to public pressure. Plenty of blame to spread around here.
So now we have vaccine segregation. Guess not much has changed.
