Wong wrong stand your ground was in the jury instructions even though zimmerman did not use it as his defense. Please do your research before you post false hoods.
The defense shrewdly avoided the stand you ground law in the Zimmerman case. Otherwise they very well might have lost because pursuit and stand you ground are hard to justify under the same law. Instead the defense chose a self defense strategy which effectively nullified everything that happened before the physical confrontation; the last 20 sec. So unfortunately from a legal standpoint, the Zimmerman case will never have much to do with this law unless the focus turns to why he wasn't arrested and charged at the scene instead of 6 months later.
