Florida Victim's Rights Attorney Deconstructs the George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin Case
Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) July 18, 2013 -- In light of the public response following the jury trial of George Zimmerman, Florida Victim's Rights Attorney Jason Turchin authored an article, which explains Florida's criminal justice system, the rights of crime victims in Florida and how to better understand the unfortunate events leading up to the killing of Trayvon Martin. The article, “Deconstructing the George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin Case: Understanding Florida's Criminal and Civil Justice System, Stand Your Ground and the Fight For Victim's Rights” can be found online at http://www.victimaid.com/lawyer-attorney-2180332.html.
"There is a great public interest in our legal system following the killing of Trayvon Martin and subsequent prosecution of George Zimmerman," states Turchin. "As a Victim's Rights Attorney, I want to help direct those who continue to fight for justice by deconstructing parts of the criminal and potential civil claims so we can have an accurate and complete discussion on preventable crimes to protect our children," Turchin continues.
Turchin wrote the article in response to vast inaccurate information on Florida’s criminal and civil laws circulating through social media, rallies, protests, and various media outlets. As an attorney who has represented many crime victims, including shooting and murder victims, Attorney Turchin explains the different avenues of victim's rights in Florida, the applicable criminal and civil laws, and direction on how to develop a complete picture of how the Trayvon Martin killing occurred. “Understanding how and why Trayvon Martin was killed will help provide the answers to the public and the Martin family and hopefully prevent this type of killing from occurring again,” adds Turchin.
Analysis of Florida's Stand Your Ground law is also provided by Attorney Turchin, and how it may have only been available to Trayvon Martin and not to George Zimmerman, contrary to reported inaccuracies and misunderstanding of Florida law.
Jason Turchin has handled more than 4,500 accident, personal injury and wrongful death cases on behalf of victims of crime and negligence. As a prior law clerk and attorney with famed Criminal Defense Attorney Roy Black, Turchin learned the value of defending our system of justice and those wrongly charged or accused. He holds an undergraduate degree in criminology and criminal justice from University of Maryland, and a law degree from University of Miami's School of Law. As a Victim’s Rights Attorney for over 10 years, Jason continues to fight for victims of crime and negligence.
