At the Wisconsin State Fair in 2011 the Modern Version of the racially driven Knock Out Game began. Throughout 2011, 2012 and 2013 the attacks continued with exponential fury in St. Louis, Atlanta, Baltimore, Virginia Beach, Miami, New York, Philadelphia and New Jersey. 
The actual behavior comes under several differing geographic names.  “Knock Out Game”, “Polar Bear Hunting”, “Flash Mob” or just “Cracking”.
The most famous perpetrator of such an attack was a 17-year-old named Trayvon Martin.  Martin’s victim did not get knocked out in the first punch. You probably never actually knew about it, because the media chose to highlight the action of the white-Hispanic victim who shot his thug attacker in the heart as he defended himself.
However, recently the media began to catch on because several back-to-back attacks in New York and Washington DC have been highlighted. Fox and CBS news began pointing out the specific intents of these crimes and the injury and deaths they have caused. (more…)

It was our initial FOIA requests to the Miami Dade School Police Department which revealed the secret discipline and diversionary program Trayvon Martin was granted to avoid a criminal record.    
Specifically Trayvon Martin’s criminal conduct was hidden behind school discipline.  Stolen jewelry was recorded as random ‘found items’ (the jewelry just intentionally placed in storage with no investigation), his possession of marijuana was similarly obfuscated, and all of the incident reports were intentionally falsified by officials and School Resource Officer, Daryl Dunn,  to avoid the Criminal Justice system.    

It is all well documented with sworn affidavits from the police department HERE.  No-one has ever been held to account – It is just too politically dangerous an issue.
Well, apparently neighboring Broward County is also willing to jump on the diversionary bandwagon.   This recent article outlines how Broward County wants to blur the lines of illegality in their efforts to avoid young black males being held criminally accountable for their behavior.
MIAMI – One of the nation’s largest school districts has reached an agreement with law enforcement agencies and the NAACP to reduce the number of students being charged with crimes for minor offenses.
The agreement with Broward County Public Schools in Florida, which officials planned to announce Tuesday, is one of the first comprehensive plans bringing together district officials, police and the state attorney’s office to create an alternative to the zero-tolerance policies prevalent in many schools. It charges principals rather than school resource officers with being the primary decision makers in responding to student misbehavior.
The move is designed to cut down on what has become known as the “school-to-prison pipeline,” where students accused of offenses like disrupting class or loitering are suspended, arrested and charged with crimes.
Broward, the nation’s seventh largest district, had the highest number of school-related arrests in Florida in the 2011-2012 school year, according to state data. Seventy-one percent of the 1,062 arrests made were for misdemeanor offenses.
In this South Florida district and others across the country, minority students have been disproportionately arrested, sometimes for the same offenses their white peers received only a warning for. Nationwide, over 70 percent of students involved in school-related arrests or law enforcement referrals are black or Hispanic, according to U.S. Department of Education data. (more…)

LetJusticePrevail shares: […]  For anyone interested, this link provides access to the full video of the FL Criminal Justice Subcommittee hearing yesterday that listened to debate on HB 4003 that called for the repeal of the FL Stand Your Ground law.
The hearing (and video) was FIVE HOURS long, and it may not be something you want to watch, so here’s the long and short of it:
The committee rejected the bill by a vote of 11-2, (voting FOR the repeal were Dems Randolph Bracy and Kionne McGhee) and the SYG law WILL remain in place. The other bill (HB 89) that addresses proposed changes to the SYG law (but not repeal)and the 10-20-life sentencing guidelines was approved by a vote of 12-1 and will be sent to the general legislature.(only McGhee opposed HB 89, on the argument that it was an “exception to an exception to an exception to an exception and that there were better ways to address the issue of mandatory sentences in of aggravated assault, rather than including them under the umbrella of immunity as provided under statute 776).
So, the repeal of FL’s SYG law died in subcommittee, and the bill that would EXPAND  immunity to include cases where the mere THREAT of force was used in cases of self defense PASSED to be heard by the legislature. These were BOTH victories for FL citizens, and their rights to defend themselves. (more…)

The egg donor who claimed to be Trayvon Martin’s mother tried to peddle her propaganda at a congressional hearing on Stand Your Ground type laws.
Sybrina Fulton, the woman who claims birthright to dead son Trayvon Martin,…. yet gave him away for ten years to her husbands wife, Alicia Stanley,…. who then upon return kicked him out of the house just before Christmas,…. yet found Jesus just in time to trademark his name,…. within two weeks of his death in a place she never visited until TV cameras were set up,…. came face to face with Ted Cruz yesterday:

In March of 2012 no-one could have predicted that a rag tag bunch of misfits spread around the globe would ultimately identify the beginning of the largest full scale media fraud in our lifetime.   And certainly no-one would have predicted that most would end up here sharing their discoveries and identifying the Truth behind the headlines.
What we identified as the *real story* around the Trayvon Martin shooting was little, if anything, to do with the actual George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin encounter.   The real story was how this one self-defense shooting was used by an assembly of disparate interests, and then manipulated in the extreme by a monolithic over powering media machine.
It was, and still remains, arguably one of the most, if not *the most*, astounding examples of modern, full-scale media manipulation ever witnessed.
Social media, mainstream media and various professional grievance artists all participated in one of the most bizarre examples of modern sociology run to the ideological, and political, extremes.
Such is the complex outline behind the Jack Cashill book “If I Had A Son – Race, Guns and the Railroading of George Zimmerman” – which is available today, released in hardback. (more…)

Trayvon’s Foundation:  Following the Paper Trail

(A Guest Post By Treeper: Big Jim)

Not long after George Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense, Trayvon’s family created a charitable, tax-exempt organization, the Justice for Trayvon Martin Foundation, Inc.
Given the volume of smaller donations that have been generated during the public appearances of Trayvon’s parents, and that some larger organizational donations have been received by the Foundation, I wanted to find out how much money had flowed into and out of the Foundation.
In order to find the money I needed to follow the paper trail, and as you will see below, in following the paper trail I ran into a few surprises.
For a tax-exempt organization the paper trail starts with its incorporation.  In order for an organization to have tax-exempt status (a “501(c)(3)” organization) it must comply with Internal Revenue Service regulations. (more…)

On the weekend before Miriam Carey crashed her car through barricades in front of the White House and was shot to death, her sister, Valarie Carey, on behalf of 5Linx, was in Orlando and gave a check for $54,000 to the Trayvon Martin Foundation.
But there’s an even more odd twist, which we’ll begin to outline after this story:
(Via Gateway Pundit) Miriam Carey confused America last week when she inexplicably rammed her car into the White House security gate, then sped away.  It was later discovered the 34 year old woman with her young toddler in the car was most likely suffering from postpartum depression and mental illness.  Miriam Carey was unarmed, but the police gunned her down, anyway.  She was surrounded by police, in her stopped car, with a child inside.
Now, Miriam Carey’s five sisters, one of which is an NYPD police officer, want answers.
According to WorldNetDaily,

The sisters of a Connecticut woman shot and killed by police in Washington, D.C., a week ago say they have many unanswered questions, including why officers chose to draw their guns and point them at a woman who may, at that point, have done no more than make bad driving decisions. (more…)

Holder: Trayvon Martin investigation is 'ongoing'

— AJAM Live (@ajamlive) September 30, 2013

There are few, if any, positive aspects to the national spotlight and attention surrounding the George Zimmerman case.   A review of mandatory minimum sentences could be one of those outcomes. 
A new trial announced today in the case of Marissa Alexander.   Spotlighting a prosecutorial charge put upon by Angela Corey, the 4th District State Attorney’s Office in Jacksonville Florida; and a mandatory 20 year minimum sentence imposed by the judge after conviction.
The case is controversial, not so much for the conviction, but more for the sentence.

Under Florida’s mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines Marissa Alexander was sentenced to TWENTY years in prison for firing a warning shot in her kitchen when her husband was confronting her.   They had a troubled, at times violent, history together.
Good construction of the factual backstory HERE. 
There are two sides to every story, and in this case the actual conviction –based on the evidence– as found by a jury, was correct.   However, the sentencing was excessive based on the actual event.  A sentence structured around a charge, and mandatory 10-20-life guideline when a firearm is used in the commission of a charged and convicted  felony. 
[excerpt from MSN News]  …  The 1st District Court of Appeal in Tallahassee said in Thursday’s ruling that the trial judge made a “fundamental error” when he instructed the jury that Alexander was required to prove self-defense beyond a reasonable doubt. (more…)

The slow motion *public* train wreck continues.   Shellie Zimmerman and her attorney Kelly Sims sit down with Ryan Julison’s pal, Matt Lauer.  
D’oh….  
…And Sims, good grief….. look at the noggin’ on that Sims fellow and tell me he’s not trying out for a part in Alien Nation, the TV series.
(New York Daily News) Shellie Zimmerman, 26, told NBC’s ‘Today’ she is conflicted about what happened the night her controversial husband fatally shot the unarmed 17-year-old. Her doubts surfaced after an explosive domestic violence incident at a family home in Florida, she said. But she stopped short of claiming Martin was a victim of racial profiling.

The estranged wife of George Zimmerman said that since the couple’s spat at a family home in Florida she now has doubts about her husband’s innocence for killing Trayvon Martin.
Shellie Zimmerman, speaking publicly for the first time since she told cops her husband threatened her with a gun on Sept. 9, told NBC’s ‘Today’ that the man she loved changed dramatically after he was acquitted for the murder of the unarmed 17-year-old.
“This person that I’m married to, that I’m divorcing, I’ve kind of realized now that I don’t know him,” she told Matt Lauer on Thursday. “And I really don’t know what he’s capable of.” (more…)
