Florida Prosecutor Angela Corey is OUT

Angela_Corey

USA Today:

Angela Corey, a state attorney in northeast Florida who investigated the shooting death of Trayvon Martin and prosecuted Marissa Alexander for firing a warning shot during a domestic dispute, lost the Republican primary on Tuesday for 4th circuit judicial state attorney.

Melissa Nelson, a corporate lawyer and former prosecutor, claimed 64% of the vote over Corey’s 26% in the fourth circuit, which oversees Jacksonville, Fla. Nelson will face Kenny Leigh, a write-in candidate who runs a men’s only law firm, in the general election. (Fun fact: no write-in candidate has ever been elected to a state attorney position in Florida, the Florida Times-Union has reported.)

She is most remembered for the prosecution of George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin, and hated by both Zimmerman’s supporters and his detractors. His supporters believe he should never have been prosecuted in the first place, and his detractors believe that Corey was responsible for a less than vigorous prosecution, resulting in Zimmerman’s acquittal.

No matter what side you are on, all are happy that Angela is GONE!
