dness over the not-guilty verdict in the Trayvon
Martin-George Zimmerman murder. The lack of justice for a dead teenager
and the Martin family is sad, it is tragic.Yes, the prosecution failed,
in my opinion, to make the case beyond reasonable doubt that Zimmerman
acted with the malice necessary for a conviction on second-degree murder.Yes,
the jury failed to see the need for justice for all.And, yes,
the media failed to be fair.These failures began before the trial when
the special prosecutor in the case, Florida State Attorney Angela Corey,
did not convene a grand jury. After the local police failed to
arrest or charge Zimmerman the prosecutors were in a rush to satisfy
racial activists, the media and political pressure for immediate action.That
was a big mistake. A grand jury might have told them they
did not have evidence to support a charge of second-degree murder. And
a grand jury might have opened the door to prosecutors considering a
range of lesser charges for Zimmerman -- from manslaughter to assault and
weapons violations.With those charges a jury, feeling confined by the technical
limits of the law, could still have produced some justice for murder
victim and his family.But the prosecutions missteps left this jury unable
to get beyond the specifics of the second-degree murder charge.The president
of the American Society of Trial Consultants told the Washington Post this
week that since the beginning of our nation Americans ha
"Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago," President Obama said
Friday in the White House press room.The president's decision to speak out
about the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman case is an explosive, risky step
in an already polarized racial landscape.The first black president has tried
to speak about race before and not had a good response. That's
possibly why he said that he's not calling for a "national dialogue"
but asking people to do some soul searching at home, at church
and among friends.The president's decision to come out and speak, despite
the warnings from his top advisers, reveals how deeply the Martin-Zimmerman
case has torn at the nation's long, troubled history of race relations.
The fact is president must have concluded that he had no choice
but to speak out or be recorded in the history books as
a political no-show on the critical race issues of his day. President
Obama is already under fire for not doing enough on race, for
not speaking out about black on black crime in the country, about
high black unemployment, about the tragedy of urban education for black
kids. Something deep in him must have forced him to speak out
this time.While it won't please his critics that the president spoke at
all, it's clear that Mr. Obama is trying to offer a leader's
healing prescription for a nation filled with hurt over the Martin-Zimmerman
case.I know I have been hurt in the days since the verdict.I
