American Man Aquited Of Murder
Answers
In the UK he would have been done for at least man slaughter as he doesn't deny killing him (in the chest and not a bullet wound) but to be guilty of absolutely nothing is incredible.

This didn't really surprise me as it was in Florida. It's heart breaking for the family though. A black woman was sentenced to 20 years in prison in this US state because she fired a few bullets into the ceiling to frighten her violent husband from beating her, no murder whatsoever. Where is the justice? There's a law in this state, can't remember the name which means this killer was innocent and this woman found guilty.... will send it.
"Not guilty" does not mean "innocent", only that the case was not proved beyond a reasonable doubt about guilt. An good analysis of "why this verdict" here:

Without having heard all the judge's instructions to the jury it is hard to fault the jury.

Ummmmmmmmm...I am surprised by your "very surprised" !
There is no doubt that Zimmerman did kill Martin. Also the local Police had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the position where they charged Zimmerman in the first place.
So, if Zimmerman wasn't responsible for Martins's death, who was ?

Another case of Americans with far too many guns it would seem to me. If they can allow dozens of little school children to die each year from armed mad people. it would seem that they are unlikely to do anything for a poor black man who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
But these cases have a habit of righting themselves sometimes. We don't see O J Simpson on many chat show these days do we !
