Re: Trayvon Martin Case
Even in a wrongful death case, he still has the affirmative defense of self-defense. AND, if that defense is upheld in the criminal case, I am pretty sure it would be an effective bar to the civil claim under the doctrine of res judicata.
Also, this is a State charge. The Feds could charge him separately on a civil rights charge.
