Dershowitz on Zimmerman

Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz says that he's read the affadavit and that it will result in an acquital, if it ever makes it to trial. "It’s irresponsible and unethical. . . . This affidavit doesn’t even make it to probable cause. Everything in this affidavit is consistent with a defense of self-defense. . . .A good judge will throw this out."

Hat tip: Instapundit.

And Dershowitz is hardly a right-wing fanatic. Like or hate him, he knows criminal law.

The DA is "passing the buck".

But by arresting him they've opened him up to civil suit, something that would have been prohibited by stand-your-ground if no arrest had been made. The system has screwed him no matter what, all because the mob mentality worked. And it will work again in civil court. Damned shame.
