It's probably also worth noting George Zimmerman #2, acquitted of murdering the child he actually murdered but convicted of attempted murder for the children he didn't murder. I don't really get that, but forget it Jake, it's Florida.

I was wrong about the acquittal; it was a hung jury and apparently the state can and probably will retry. Still depressing that they weren't able to get a conviction, but not as depressing as I thought it was.
