NO GLOVES: Did The Sanford Cops EVER Take The Trayvon Martin Case Seriously?

NO GLOVES!!!






The Martin/Zimmerman police report said that the shooter had a broken nose and grass all over his clothes, and Zimmerman claimed that his victim banged his head repeatedly on the road. Now ABC news has video of the night when they brought Zimmerman in for questioning and – surprise! – his shaved head looks pristine, his nose looks fine and his clothes look like he just washed them. If the cops thought he might have blood on him then protocol requires them to touch him with gloves. They seem fine with bare hands.

then went in with a bias and processed the case with that bias. The entire dept has a bias against a portion of the residents they serve. Note it doesn't matter is they have what we call tokens on the force either...MSM should search them out.

issued by his dad, the judge.

1 arrest for assaulting an police officer
2 for domestic violence
and this, and no charges ever for anything.

He said he saw no evidence of a physical struggle on Trayvon. Just the GSW.

I doubt VERY much that a shooter is EVER allowed to walk behind the deputies, with no one directly watching him --- this demonstrates the lack of protocol, of security the police have in George's handling.

WRONG! the sanford PD totally screwed up and that now adds another layer to the case---if they had done the correct thing, this would pretty much have been open and shut manslaughter and george would be in jail right now, awaiting trial...

It is the old Sherlock Holmes rule of the best place to hide things is in plain sight.

A while back I saw something I didn't see.

Our nation is more secure because of.... I won't go any further. It was so obvious I was being duped because I saw what I didn't see.

It is important to evaluate what you see ... but when things are missing you must ask ...WHY?
