It seems most witnesses are being turned into defense witnesses. Last night on CNN one of the experts, defense attorney Mark Garigos, said he though the prosecutors were so bad that they looked like they were throwing the case.

Have not watched the trial or discussions thereof...HOWEVER...
I agree with your early premise. This case is 100 percent POLITICAL. The participants and their skin color made it that way.
This does not get beyond the 6:00 news if not for the intervention of those who use these sad cases to make political points. Once over, no matter the outcome, they will create more tension and wait for the next situation that can be used to stir certain folks to action (posting, doing whatever the TV host or editorial writer tells them to do)
Why do supposed "thinkers" not check facts on how this case made it this far, and then make a decision on their own, NOT about innocence or guilt but on how they are being used.
