New demands for justice in the Trayvon Martin case - this time in Jacksonville.
Attorney General Pam Bondi says she's speaking with the family of Trayvon Martin, plus investigators on the local, state and federal level. She's standing by the state attorney on the case.
"Angela Corey from Jacksonville, she is second to none," says Bondi. "She will do a thorough investigation."
But that's not good enough for the New Black Panther Party who protested in Jacksonville yesterday.
"Angela Corey is no good for this case," shouted members of the black activist group. "She has a track record of destroying lives in the black community."
But, the life many are focussed on right now is the one that ended - and Trayvon's parents say there's a smear campaign against him.
Trayvon's mother is accusing police in Sanford of attempting to destroy her son's character. A family spokesman says the teen had been suspended from school for marijuana when the unarmed teen was shot to death by a neighborhood watch volunteer. A city official says the source of the leak will be investigated. Records obtained by the AP show Martin had no juvenile offenses.
A big demonstration was held yesterday in Sanford. Several thousand people carried signs, rallied and marched in in support of the victim. The protesters are demanding justice.
