haha -- all of the police from the lead investigator on up thought that there was not enough to charge Zimmerman, even at a time when they were under massive pressure to do so:
http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/2012-12-12/news/os-george-zimmerman-serino-changes-affidavit-20121212_1_police-chief-bill-lee-george-michael-zimmerman-second-degree-murder"For the state attorney to take over the investigation, however, police had to file the right paperwork, Lee wrote in an email to the Orlando Sentinel in July.
That includes a charging recommendation, Lee wrote, and as lead investigator, that task fell to Serino.
He did what he was told, according to O'Connor. Just above Serino's signature, the veteran investigator wrote, "I believe there exists probable cause for issuance of a capias charging George Michael Zimmerman with manslaughter."
O'Connor told the Sentinel in July, "Basically, the implied order was, 'Get it out the door'… We wrote up what we had, the context of what we had … with the understanding that there was still insufficient evidence for the State Attorney to charge.""
THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A SECOND. THE STATE IS PROSECUTING ZIMMERMAN FOR SECOND DEGREE MURDER EVEN THOUGH THE TOP 4 OR 5 POLICE OFFICERS WILL ALL TESTIFY AT TRIAL THAT THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT A CHARGE . . . . . .
THOSE SAME COPS SUBMITTED THEIR FILE TO THE STATE'S ATTORNEY WHO DID WHAT . . . . . . DECIDED NOT TO CHARGE ... . THAT STATES ATTORNEY WAS REPLACED BY THE GOVERNOR . . . A POLITICIAN
