As tensions mount over the Feb. 26 shooting death of Trayvon Martin by neighborhood watch patrolman George Zimmerman, pressure is building on Seminole/Brevard County State Attorney Norm Wolfinger to have him arrested in the killing. Demonstrators are converging on Florida to support the teens family and express their frustration over police so far not making an arrest in the case.

.

Wolfinger has called a grand jury, which will convene on April 10, to investigate the case and determine if Zimmerman should be charged.

Martin, 17, died after being confronted by Zimmerman, 28, who was suspicious of him even though he was simply returning to a house in a Sanford, Fla., gated community from a nearby convenience store. Despite being told by police dispatchers he did not need to follow Martin, the armed Zimmerman did so; when he confronted him they wrestled and Martin was shot once in the chest, dying at the scene. Zimmerman claimed self-defense under Floridas stand your ground law and that Martin attacked him. He has not been charged by police.

.

Watchers of the case say they are puzzled as to why Zimmerman has not been arrested yet. Chris Liebig, a Washington-based criminal defense attorney, says the details in the killing at the very least make it a homicide. Its more than enough evidence, he says. All they need is probable cause. Based on the known facts they have enough for manslaughter or murder.

.

Since the incident, calls for justice by Martins family have echoed as far as Congress, and the actions of the Sanford Police Department have fallen under intense scrutiny. Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee has said Zimmerman was not arrested because there is no probable cause to dispute Zimmermans claim of self defense and turned the case over to Wolfinger. But Lee has been accused of everything from covering up a racial hate crime to taking Zimmermans word at simple face value without questioning him or administering a drug or alcohol test.
