it means she wanted to prosecute BIG (hence the charge of murder and not manslaughter) in order to win re-election. It worked for her, and hurt the case.However, as we all know, an indictment is not a conviction!
Why didn't the police just arrest Zimmerman at the scene? Police seem to do everything they can to arrest someone, but they just let him walk...

At the outset of this case, black activists such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, who whipped up wrath against Zimmerman, demanded that he be charged with murder, after local police had thus far declined to arrest him pending investigation.
