## Transcript

In the Circuit Court of the 18th Judicial Circuit in enforce Seminole county, Florida. State of Florida versus George Zimmerman. Verdict. We the jury find George Zimmerman not guilty. So say we all for person. I think the prosecution of George Zimmerman was [ CROSSTALK ] Mm- hm. Was disgraceful. [ INAUDIBLE ] I am gratified by the jury's verdict. As happy as I am for George Zimmerman I'm thrilled that this jury kept this tragedy from becoming a travesty. For that, we are eternally grateful. But it makes me sad, too, that it took this long, under these circumstances, to finally get justice. Trayvon Martin will forever remain in the annals of history, next to Medgar Evers and Emmett Till, as symbols for the fight for equal justice for all.

I don't think this is a time for high fiving. I acknowledge, we all have acknowledged that Mr. Martin, Trayvon Martin lost his life. It was not an act of murder. It was not an act of manslaughter. The jury has spoken. Our judicial system has spoken. But that does not diminish the tragedy. Death is tragic in any circumstance of someone, a young person losing their life for an, for whatever circumstances exist. I remain stunned at this decision that the the grown man armed murdered the unarmed boy going home because he suspected him The states attorney avoided the issue of race. The defense team denied the use of race, and yet race profile was obvious from the very beginning.

And because of this conclusion, look at all white people doing the offense and defense. You look at a juror without a black or without a man on it. This certainly was not a jury of Trayvon's peers. The Department of Justice must intervene and take this case, frankly, to another level.
