Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Under Fire For Alleged Professional Breaches | JONATHAN TURLEY

I have criticized Zimmerman Special Prosecutor Angela Corey before - here, here, and here.  John Steele at Legal Ethics Forum has detailed many of her missteps here. If there is a pot hole to stumble into she seems destined to find it.  If not, she'll dig a new one. - GWC

Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Under Fire For Alleged Professional Breaches | JONATHAN TURLEY:

Corey herself is facing allegations of unethical and unprofessional conduct. Prosecutors are supposed to be highly circumspect in their public comments. They are not supposed to attack acquitted defendants. Most refuse to do so and leave such matters to the public debate rather than join the public outcry. Corey surprised many by going on television and calling Zimmerman a “murderer” after his acquittal. Her trial counsel was slightly more circumspect and called him “lucky.” She also referred to Martin as Zimmerman’s “prey.” Clearly there are many who share these views, but it is a different matter when spoken by a prosecutor following an acquittal.
