So tell me again: what is this trial all about?

The police gave George Zimmerman a lie detector test the day after the Trayvon Martin shooting.

He passed.

Combine that with the one-sided forensic evidence and the testimony of the eye-witnesses, and is it any wonder the police didn't charge him?

The question is why there was a special prosecutor to handle an open-and-shut case. That, and why this incident ever came to trial.

Other than racism on the part of Zimmerman's accusers, of course.
