Agreed completely.

It surprises me that in a case like this, Florida has a statute requiring the DA to file for murder 2 as the top count, not voluntary manslaughter. IMO, that played the biggest role in Zimmerman's acquittal.
They couldn't meet the standard of acting with a depraved mind. And certainly not after the re-enactment of Martin's assault by the defense; that was very persuasive.
