If you think media and public attention was over the top for that case, wait till Zimmerman goes to trial. The media and government abuse in that case pales in comparison to the Zimmerman case.

The Casey Anthony debacle certainly left that conclusion.Ridgwaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7060696059642580878.post-88869480929344655532012-09-04T16:35:09.732-05:002012-09-04T16:35:09.732-05:00Ridge:

The original judge appeared to be long on ego and short on the maturity needed for a case of this significance. Zimmerman is obviously at fault at some level for a terrible outcome, but a fair determination of exactly what that is should trump a petty magistrate's fit of pique.Ridgwaynoreply@blogger.com
