Our best dressed TV discussion host, when asked why he made a big deal

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.


ar·rest

verb (used with object)
1. to seize (a person) by legal authority or warrant; take into custody: The police arrested the burglar.

2.to catch and hold; attract and fix; engage: The loud noise arrested our attention.


noun
5.the taking of a person into legal custody, as by officers of the law.

6.any seizure or taking by force.


Note number 1 and 5. He was arrested immediately on the scene, then released. Try again.

Ho Hum.......

?Zimmerman provided a statement claiming he acted in self defense, which
at the time was supported by physical evidence and testimony,? the
letter, signed by Sanford City Manager Norton Bonaparte Jr., says. ?By
Florida Statute, law enforcement was PROHIBITED from making an arrest
based on the facts and circumstances they had at the time.? (Caps are
theirs.)

SANFORD, Fla. -
The police chief at the center of a firestorm over the decision not to
arrest George Zimmerman tells Local 6 in an exclusive interview that he
may have saved his job had he given into pressure, but he believes that
would have violated his oath to uphold the Constitution.

Former Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee Jr. said he got the call about
shooting of Trayvon Martin on a rainy Sunday evening --Feb. 26, 2012 --
and headed to the scene at the Retreat at Twin Lakes.

"Without specific evidence to refute Zimmerman's self-defense claims",
Lee said, "an arrest would have subjected the city to possible
litigation for unlawful arrest."

And last but certainly not least:

He was arrested, he just was not charged

Did you see the above? Are they all wrong?
