It is now being speculated that the prosecutor waived the grand jury option because she knew that they couldn't nail Zimmerman on a Murder One charge and you usually don't call a grand jury investigation for a 2nd degree or manslaughter case. And it seems pretty evident that she thinks she has sufficient evidence to make Murder Two indictment stick.
And Zimmerman's former attorneys are on record as willing to represent him again if they are asked and they say they are 100% convinced he is innocent of any wrong doing.
And the fact is, none of us still know what all the facts of this case are.
In most states for there to be a trial on a felony it must first be presented to a grand jury to see if there is enough evidence for a trial. If the grand jury votes to "no bill" then the subject can not ever be tried on that charge. Apparently things are different in Fla. Can you imagine how it would explode had the grand jury met and they "no billed" Zimmerman. Seeing as the grand Jury meets in private and kept supposedly secret the media could have created lots of stories out of that.
In Florida, the only time a Grand Jury indictment is required is for a capital crime.
