Staying Up with the Layers of the Trayvon Martin Murder

In the past, I've said the Trayvon Martin murder case is layered like an onion. On Saturday, March 24th, MSNBC's "Up with Christ Hayes" devoted a lot of time to different aspects of case. One of the panel's participants, Attorney Bryan Stevenson, made startling revelations about American youngsters sentenced to life in prison.

Other segments of the show were equally informative and thought provoking. You'll miss good stuff if you don't check them out!

Angela Cory, the State Attorney assigned to investigate the Trayvon Martin case, is best known for trying and convicting a 12 year old as as adult for murder.

O, no! Sounds like a fix could be in, doesn't it, when combined with the "revelations" about the weed baggie, and the Zimmerman attorney who fled the interview yesterday?

Peeling back the layers...Trayvon wouldn't have been in Orlando had he not been suspended from school for 19 days for having a baggie with marijuana residue in his book bag. 10 days to get behind in his school work. 10 days of doing nothing. Can you say cradle to prison pipeline?
