On the Martin Murder- briefly. . .

Enough has been said about the 'Zimmerman' verdict without rehashing all of the salient points here.

But one brief note:  In a recent interview by Anderson Cooper of an anonymous juror (the only public one so far), she brought up the fact that the 'stand your ground' law in Florida was used by the jury in their deliberations and decision making process.  Curious that the issue was not before the jury at all per the judges instructions to them.  So, legally it should not even have been considered by them.  Doesn't this completely invalidate their finding?

It seems this should give some cause for an appeal by the prosecution.  Although, seeing how the convoluted legalities of the case played out, there are likely legal technicalities to prevent such a recourse. . . unfortunately.
