BY RENE STUTZMAN AND JEFF WEINERThe Orlando Sentinel

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — SpecialProsecutor Angela Corey announcedWednesday evening that Neighbor-hood Watch volunteer George Zim-merman has been charged in thedeath of Trayvon Martin.

Corey announced a second-degreemurder charge at the State Attorney’sOffice in Jacksonville, more than sixweeks after Martin and Zimmerman’sfatal encounter.

If convicted, Zimmerman wouldface up to life in prison.

“The team here with me hasworked tirelessly looking for answersin Trayvon Martin’s death,” Coreysaid, introducing her prosecutorsand investigators.

Corey added that “we do not pros-ecute by public pressure.” She saidthat her office handles all cases thesame way, regardless of the scrutiny.

“We will continue to seek the truthin this case,” Corey said. “There is areason cases are tried in a court oflaw.”

Corey confirmed that a warrantwas issued for Zimmerman’s arrest,and that he is in custody. She de-clined to say what evidence her officehas that would counter his self-de-fense claim.

She also declined to reveal Zim-merman’s location.

At one point during the news con-ference, Corey recounted her first

meeting with Martin’s parents. Shesaid her prosecution team and an at-torney for the teen’s parents alsoattended.

“We opened our meeting inprayer,” Corey said.

She said she didn’t promise Mar-tin’s parents anything.

At the Washington conventioncenter where Martin’s parents areexpected to speak Wednesday night,a crowd of about 40 had gatheredaround a hallway TV to hear the de-cision by the special prosecutor.

When she said they would pur-sue second-degree murder, many inthe group erupted in applause.

Soon after Corey’s announce-ment, the Rev. Al Sharpton ad-dressed the crowd.

“We don’t want anyone high-five-ing tonight. There was no winnertonight,” Sharpton said. “This is notabout gloating. This is about pursu-ing justice.”

Said Martin family attorney Ben-jamin Crump: “This is only firstbase.”

Meanwhile, Zimmerman has re-tained a new lawyer. Veteran CentralFlorida attorney Mark O’Mara willrepresent him, CNN legal analystMark NeJame confirmed.

NeJame, himself a prominentlocal lawyer, also confirmed thatZimmerman is in the custody of theFlorida Department of LawEnforcement.

Zimmerman, a former altar boywhose dream was to become a po-lice officer, shot and killed Martin, ahigh school junior, on a rainyevening Feb. 26 in Sanford.

The teen from Miami had been re-turning from a nearby 7-Eleven,where he bought a can of iced teaand a bag of Skittles, when he wasspotted by Zimmerman in the Re-treat at Twin Lakes, a gated commu-nity where he was staying with hisfather’s fiancee.

Zimmerman was in his SUV onhis way to Target when he called po-lice, telling them Martin seemedsuspicious.

“This guy looks like he’s up to nogood, or he’s on drugs or some-thing,” Zimmerman told a police dis-patcher as he watched Martinminutes before the shooting.

In a series of 911 calls shortlyafter, neighbors described an alter-cation between the two men. On onecall, screams can be heard, and thena gunshot. Martin’s lawyers said thescreams are from the teen; Zimmer-man’s father said it was his sonshouting for help.

Martin’s death has reignitedracial tensions across the countryand sent protesters to the streets innumbers seldom seen since the anti-war movement of the 1970s.

The outcry prompted the U.S. De-partment of Justice to launch a civilrights investigation, the governor to

put the case in the hands of a spe-cial prosecutor and Sanford’s policechief to temporarily step aside.

Civil rights leaders — includingthe Rev. Jesse Jackson — membersof Congress and celebrities de-scended on Central Florida andcalled for Zimmerman’s arrest.Sharpton, one of the sharpest crit-ics, warned that the quaint lakesidecity of 53,000 was on the verge of be-coming known as the Birmingham orSelma of the 21st century.

More than 2 million peoplesigned an online petition urging Zim-merman’s arrest.

During the long interval betweenthe shooting and his arrest, Zimmer-man remained silent and out ofsight.

A month after the shooting, how-ever, one of his lawyers, Craig Son-ner, and friend Joe Oliver, a publicrelations professional, made therounds of cable and network newstalk shows.

They defended him, saying hewas no racist but was a man fightingfor is life against an attacker.

The teenager broke Zimmerman’snose and gashed open his head,they said, and Zimmerman fired onelethal shot in self-defense.

Sonner and another attorney, HalUhrig, announced Tuesday that theyhad lost contact with him and, as aconsequence, no longer representhim.
