This issue didn't surface for a month after the killing.  If it hadn't been for the press... this killing would just
have been swept under the rug and forgotten.



The press went above and beyond and probably tainted any potential jury pool by their reporting and the showing of a mug shot of Zimmerman.... complete with orange shirt, for 3 weeks...even after photos sans-jumpsuit surfaced...in fact, some of them are still showing the mugshot.

So showing a mug shot kind of gives the impression that the person is guilty... Oh...

philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

yup... everyone but the jury and south central LA still thinks he is guilty. maybe the mug shot got him the change in venue that ended up springing him.....pretty poor comparo box, considering even non football fans knew who he was and what he looked like...BEFORE he was arrested..and he is missing the prison orange.

So OJ's mug shot has LAPD and Jail Div... while Zimmerman just has the photo below that could be a photo
taken in an orange shirt... no Police Dept... No jail division...
Yet you consider it inflammatory.
Zimmerman's photo could have been taken at a soft ball game group photo, or a bowling league...
