A volunteer community watch captain who shot an unarmed Florida teenager
to death last month had been the subject of complaints by neighbors in his
gated community for aggressive tactics, a homeowner said.
.
George Zimmerman has not been charged in the Feb. 26 shooting of Trayvon
Martin, 17, who was walking home from a convenience store in Sanford,
Fla., near Orlando. Zimmerman, who patrolled the Retreat at Twin Lakes
development in his own car, had been called aggressive in earlier
complaints to the local police and the homeowner's association, according
to a homeowner who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
.
At an emergency homeowners association meeting on March 1, one man was
escorted out because he openly expressed his frustration because he had
previously contacted the Sanford Police Department about Zimmerman
approaching him and even coming to his home, the resident wrote in an
email to HuffPost. It was also made known that there had been several
complaints about George Zimmerman and his tactics" in his neighborhood
watch captain role.
.
Talk of prior complaints against Zimmerman comes as pressure mounts on law
enforcement. Protesters have gathered outside Sanford police headquarters.
The Martin's family and attorneys have held press conferences calling the
killing an outrage and pleading for Zimmermans arrest. High school
classmates and citizens are granting interviews to reporters asking why no
one has been charged. And as the story continues to gain national media
attention, civil rights leaders, including members of the NAACP and the
Rev. Al Sharpton, said they are preparing to join the family of Martin,
who was black. Zimmerman is white.
.
This case is disturbing to say the least, Sharpton told Huffpost. This is
appalling, to think that this guy admitted to initiating the conversation
and that there was no crime other than the killing of this young man. Yet,
[Zimmerman] is walking around with no threat of an arrest.
.
Sharpton said he will travel to Florida this week.

Benjamin Crump, the Martin familys attorney, filed a public records
lawsuit last week seeking the 911 recordings for the night of the
shooting. Crump said people with access to the tapes told him Zimmerman
made a comment about Martins race during the call and said he had no
intention of letting the youth get away because, they always get away.
.
I dont think they have any intention on arresting this white man for
killing this black boy, Crump said on Sharptons radio show Monday.

Arriving police found Martins 140-pound body face-down in a patch of grass
less than 100 feet from his familys home. The young man was unarmed, with
a few dollars and a pack of Skittles in one pocket and a canned iced tea
in the other.
.
He was a typical teenager, he loved life, Tracy Martin, the teens father,
said. But now, all the family wants is justice.
