With ABC News’ release of the George Zimmerman photo showing blood flowing freely from his head, the question becomes whether Angela Corey, the prosecutor in the case, had access to the photo before charging Zimmerman with second-degree murder.

The arrest affidavit did not mention the photograph, or the bleeding, gashes, and bruises on Zimmermans’ head. Professor Alan Dershowitz of Harvard Law School stated upon release of the arrest affidavit that it was “so thin that it won’t make it past a judge on a second degree murder charge … everything in the affidavit is completely consistent with a defense of self-defense.”
After the release of the photo, however, Dershowitz went much further, telling Breitbart News that if the prosecutors did have the photo and didn’t mention it in the affidavit, that would constitute a “grave ethical violation,” since affidavits are supposed to contain “all relevant information.”

Dershowitz continued, “An affidavit that willfully misstates undisputed evidence known to the prosecution is not only unethical but borders on perjury because an affiant swears to tell not only the truth, but the whole truth, and suppressing an important part of the whole truth is a lie."
When asked if it made a difference whether the prosecution had the bloody photograph at the time they charged Zimmerman, Dershowitz responded, “We do know that there were earlier photographs before the affidavit was done that strongly suggested blood on the back of the head, and we know the police had first access to him, so if there was blood they [the prosecution] would know about it …

"I've had cases in Florida against prosecutors,” Dershowitz said, “and this is not the first time they have willfully omitted exculpatory evidence. It's a continuing problem. Here, it’s not only immoral, but stupid. The whole country is watching. What do they benefit from having half-truths in an affidavit?"  

Dershowitz added, "I'm not taking sides, but I'm insisting that both sides play by the rules, and so far the prosecution is not playing by the rules."

The case should be thrown out!!! And the victim's parents or those in 'the mob' can blame their justice system for hiding or trying to skirt the evidence!

It's really scary to think that an AMERICAN innocent person, who didn't break any laws, is subject to 'mob rule' and 'injustice'!

Looks like we've landed in Iraq/afghan/iran TOTO!!!!

Bumble keeps referring to a mob... Other than a very few radicals... where is this mob.  The last time I asked
him for evidence of a "mob" he posted pics of a peaceful demonstration in support of Martin.
The news for that demonstration also commented on how it was a PEACEFUL demonstration.

The only MOB in this case is in Bumblers imagination.

I guess you didn't see the looters from the local high school go into a 7/11 while their chaperone struggled to shoo them out..

Or the college Students that marched to the Sandford PD headquarters, blocked the entrance and essentially closed it down.

BUT, if Zimmerman gets acquitted, then you will see the REAL mob, 24/7 ravaging central FLA, with I'm sure, satellite operations in LA and NY.

There will always be radicals on both sides anxious to take advantage of the situation... no matter what the
outcome of the trial.  I have yet to see a "MOB".

Oh, the rally where 25,000 were chanting "no justice, no peace" with the reverend Al.  I wonder what the "no peace" was suggesting?

It meant that the chanting and other rallies would continue...

I wonder what Your IDOL and Conservative 2nd amendment champion Ted Neugent meant when he said:
~ “... why can’t I just shoot this [Hate Krishna] guy in the spine right now; shoot him in the spine, explain
the facts of life to him.

Box knows exactly what it means, its slang for "we will burn your fcking cities down if we don't get our way".

Really Henry??? I know what that means???
Is it a Hitler quote?
A Black Panther Quote?
A Racist Right Wing Militia quote?

It could be from all of them.

Yeah you do because you seen it before under same conditions, you have the media firing up the race issue, you have mobs who think justice will not be served, emotions are getting high, the same quote was said countless times just like we have now, sound familiar.

Mobs?  Who think justice will not be served?  Do you mean the way justice failed Rodney King?

Interesting this is on the front page of yahoo

Here is a quote from the story from a women name Lil Mama, she stated while holding a liquor bottle "If they let that guy who killed Trayvon Martin get off," he said, referring to the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager in Florida, "it could happen here again."

Not choosing sides here, (honestly curious) but has anybody said why the new photos weren't released earlier?
