now we wait for the courts will it be justice or just us?
SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — The parents of a teenager who was fatally shot by a neighborhood watch volunteer last year have settled a wrongful-death claim against the homeowners association of the Florida subdivision where their son was killed.
The Orlando Sentinel (http://thesent.nl/YYnBB7 ) reported Friday that an attorney for Trayvon Martin's parents — Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin — filed that paperwork in Seminole County and that portions of it were made available for public review Friday.According to the newspaper, the settlement amount was marked out in five pages that it reviewed. Lower in the agreement, the parties specify that they will keep the amount confidential.Benjamin Crump, the attorney for Trayvon Martin's parents, declined to comment Friday. He told The Associated Press that the filing was confidential.
with all the controversal claims by the only living witness we know of and the police questionable handling from the beginning photo's not consistant with his story, his racially charged conversation with police dispatcher, not unreasonable that the homeowners ass. would not settle the publicity was hurting them giving them a reputation.
Zimmerman has been charged with second-degree murder in Martin's death. Zimmerman claims he was attacked and acted in self-defense, but Martin's family claims he targeted the unarmed 17-year-old mainly because Martin was black. Zimmerman's parents are white and Hispanic.
mixed background going on his conversation with dispatcher made no difference as to his racial tendencies, he clearly used inflammatory statements based on actually a boy walking in the rain with a hoodie on, and aggressively sought him out with no reason other then his statement "yeah he's up to no good".
