Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Criminally
Indicted By Citizens' Grand Jury For Allegedly Falsifying Arrest Warrant And
Complaint
OCALA, Fla., July 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Florida State's
Attorney Angela Corey has been indicted by a citizens' grand jury, convening in
Ocala, Florida, over the alleged falsification of the arrest warrant and
complaint that lead to George Zimmerman being charged with the second degree
murder of African-American teenager Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida.
The indictment of Corey, which was handed down last week (see www.citizensgrandjury.com),
charges Corey with intentionally withholding photographic evidence of the
injuries to George Zimmerman's head in the warrant she allegedly rushed to
issue under oath, in an effort to boost her reelection prospects. At the outset of this case, black activists such as Jesse
Jackson and Al Sharpton, who whipped up wrath against Zimmerman, demanded that
he be charged with murder, after local police had thus far declined to arrest
him pending investigation.
Following Corey's criminal complaint charging Zimmerman, legal
experts such as Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz condemned her for falsely
signing an arrest affidavit under oath, which intentionally omitted exculpatory
evidence consisting of the photographs showing the injuries Zimmerman
sustained, and rushing to charge him with second degree murder under political
pressure. Dershowitz called her actions unethical and themselves crimes (http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/drop-george-zimmerman-murder-charge-
article-1.1080161).
Larry Klayman, a former U.S. Justice Department prosecutor, a
Florida lawyer since 1977, and now the "citizens' prosecutor" who
presided over the Ocala grand jury said this: "The Supreme Court has
confirmed that the grand jury belongs to the American people, not the three
branches of government. (504 U.S. 36, 48 (1992) (quoting United States v. R.
Enterprises, Inc., 498 U.S. 292, 297 (1991)). By indicting Florida State
Attorney Angela Corey, the people are exercising their God given rights,
recognized by our Founding Fathers, to mete out justice when the political and
legal establishment subverts the rule of law. Hopefully, this indictment will
serve as a warning to the political and legal establishment that they are not
above the law. Ironically, Corey will now be tried and likely convicted for her
alleged crimes -- which resulted in Zimmerman being charged under false
pretenses, now coming home to roost during Zimmerman's on-going trial.
Corruption cannot be tolerated, particularly by law enforcement officers who
are elected by the people to serve their ends, not the law enforcement
officer's political ends."
