Description
Trayvon Martin was racially profiled and murdered, a law enforcer was involved in his murder, and institutional racism from cops and prosecutors prevented justice for this murdered child. Trayvon Martin was a young, African-American male who had just turned 17 when a non-black male neighborhood watchman, George Zimmerman, killed him with a law enforcer as his accomplice. However, this has been kept secret. Zimmerman claimed self-defense, the police supported him, and the prosecutor lost the case. Did Zimmerman's description of events take place? Why did the police protect him and his accomplices? Why and how did the prosecution lose the case? This book answers these questions in fact based detail, provides a fact based scenario of the events, shows exactly how the prosecution threw the case, and reveals the unimaginable trickery used to distort events. The facts and evidence point to racial profiling, institutional racism, a murder cover-up by law enforcers, and the "good old boy" system.
