This is not a newsflash, doofus.

nekom		2012-04-12 10:05:13 PM

Wow, they still make those root beer barrels candy? There's your newsflash right there.

MaudlinMutantMollusk		2012-04-12 10:07:00 PM

Methinks that's some serious newsflash abuse, there, subs

Aparently jail commissary is priced like a minibar.

he should save some of that money for k-y.

Words, sir. You and me will be having them!

No YOU'RE a Towel		2012-04-12 10:15:40 PM

Clicked, assuming that was some sort of strange, clever euphemism.

It wasn't.

violentsalvation		2012-04-12 10:19:00 PM

I voted it up. It is as newsflash-worthy as anything else Zimmerman.

NannerPuss		2012-04-12 10:19:12 PM

Hmmmm. Ironic Newsflash tag usage. I'm not sure how I feel about this. Give me a moment to think about it....

Rage. Yup, uncontrollable rage.

Spelling fail in the FIRST farking sentence

bojon		2012-04-12 10:20:38 PM

I would have bought the 6" shiv for thirty dollars.

nony2klerch		2012-04-12 10:21:41 PM

Ironic = tea and skittles.

Silly Jesus		2012-04-12 10:21:42 PM

Um, perhaps it was a play on the fact that news outlets are reporting up to the minute information like this nonsense?

/not subs

in other words... the essence of Fark.

Nabb1		2012-04-12 10:24:56 PM

With this kind of publicity, his attorneys may have grounds to change the venue of the trial to Mars pretty soon.

jehovahs witness protection		2012-04-12 10:35:18 PM

Since he killed a thug while fighting for his life, maybe some more thugs should be killed to make it worth while.
Show your "grill", take a bullet.

Maybe he had blisters.

But for only $2 more, you can get one with a knuckle guard fashioned from a spork.

cman		2012-04-12 10:57:17 PM

I voted up

This is not newsworthy and Yahoo needs to be chastised from its readers.

Silly Jesus		2012-04-12 11:05:33 PM

Would anyone else have seriously considered buying Skittles and Tea?

Would that be the best or the worst troll ever?

PC LOAD LETTER		2012-04-12 11:12:09 PM

This is not news. It is Fark.com.

Grables'Daughter		2012-04-12 11:13:52 PM

Farkers sent me books when I was in jail.

Bathia_Mapes		2012-04-12 11:24:31 PM

Grables'Daughter: Farkers sent me books when I was in jail.

You were in jail?

ambassador_ahab		2012-04-12 11:26:21 PM

Jolly Ranchers? It would be way more awesome if it was skittles.

MaudlinMutantMollusk		2012-04-12 11:31:28 PM

What, no Seminole County Jail souvenir hoodie?

/window seat, please

Godscrack		2012-04-12 11:51:38 PM

I'm waiting for Zimmerman and Casey Anthony to get married.

nony2klerch		2012-04-12 11:53:40 PM

Welll at least he's got a good decent jumpsuit (from tv coverage it's blue).

/Aisle seats have for legroom.

arethusa		2012-04-13 12:04:12 AM

While this is not breaking news, the link with the investigator's affidavit sure was. I read it and left and now it is not there.

To paraphrase - Profiled and hunted him down, enough to get him for 1st degree, but they aren't going to let anymore information get out to the public.

NannerPuss		2012-04-13 12:05:41 AM

Godscrack: I'm waiting for Zimmerman and Casey Anthony to get married.

Nancy Grace's head would asplode.

*prays for them to get married*

arethusa		2012-04-13 12:05:52 AM

Oops...link was in the Miami Herald site.

Chariset		2012-04-13 12:15:05 AM

I thought this guy left the state and vanished

Relatively Obscure		2012-04-13 12:17:54 AM

You can make a knife from Jolly Ranchers.

MaudlinMutantMollusk		2012-04-13 12:18:49 AM

Chariset: I thought this guy left the state and vanished

He turned himself in right away

/he's trying to follow all the rules

ambassador_ahab		2012-04-13 12:21:08 AM

So you've either done time or watched "Lockup"

RTFA. He's being charged with second-degree murder, not first.

I KNOW what he is being charged with; I am repeating what the investigator's report said. They said they had enough for FIRST.

I guess you can read it for yourself when it pops back up.

arethusa		2012-04-13 12:37:39 AM

The link to the affidavit is there.

I'm on dial-up & my ISP is flaky right now or I would post the affidavit.

I'm guessing that they feel there's a better chance of getting a conviction with a second degree murder charge. Even then, the maximum sentence for that is life in prison.

jaylectricity		2012-04-13 12:46:02 AM

Anybody have the easy link to whatever video of whatever anybody said about this at 1:30 EDT yesterday?

arethusa		2012-04-13 12:46:34 AM

My bad. It's not in the affidavit, it is on the second page.

Lead prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda would not discuss what other evidence prosecutors have against the neighborhood watch volunteer, except to say it is enough to support the first-degree felony charge.

arethusa		2012-04-13 12:49:10 AM

Bathia_Mapes: I'm guessing that they feel there's a better chance of getting a conviction with a second degree murder charge. Even then, the maximum sentence for that is life in prison.

I would assume that is why. Several were saying they should have gone lower than this, unless!, they had evidence that they were keeping under wraps. I guess they do.

I've worked in a prison. And watched Lockup.

SkinnyHead		2012-04-13 12:59:23 AM

Why are they charging him for these necessities? Isn't the state responsible for providing him with the necessities of life?

ambassador_ahab		2012-04-13 12:59:29 AM

Relatively Obscure: I've worked in a prison

Where, and how often did you have to deal with shanks?

You are a horrible troll.

Britney Spear's Speculum		2012-04-13 01:06:21 AM

Dude, it's Florida. He'll walk. The jurors are thinking book deals, 1 on 1 interviews with Piers Morgan and a guest spot on DWTS.

Sometimes you are just funny.

I demand my jolly ranchers!!! They are a necessity of life!
