Perfectly valid explanation.



Bull****. Zimm WAS arrested immediately. He was released, properly, because there was not enough evidence to hold and prosecute him, which the politically-motivated trail later showed to be the case.



Try again.



No he was NOT "arrested immediately" Try again.

February 26, 2012 - George Zimmerman shoots Trayvon Martin while the 17-year-old is walking back from a convenience store in Sanford, Fla., where he purchased a pack of Skittles candy and iced tea. Zimmerman tells police he killed the teen in self-defense after a scuffle. He is taken into *custody* but soon released. No charges are filed.
