have put that tape in. the fact that the jury saw it was because of the prosecution. the defense because of evident evidentiary rules, because of the rules, they couldn t have done it. you don t pick your evidence, and you know, i hope that the prosecutors, you know, walk out of there with their heads high and the defense lawyers as well because they did their jobs, both sides. you know, as our viewers watched this, they re watching george zimmerman and his family, and his legal defense team walk out of that courtroom. what happens now, greta? he goes back to his life. he is a free man tonight. what is the protocol at this point legally? he is absolutely free. i think he s got an ankle bracelet on, and he has a curfew. well, that curfew now is gone. he s as free as you and i are, harris. he s 100% free. what happens next depends a lot on how much the community backs him. this is a very high profile case, and almost sort of a toxic case because people there s so much passion invol
your team or not. i regret when i hear lawyers say anything or anyone, any politician saying anything before we heard the facts. i regret if anyone is critical of the jury because those are the people that were selected. it s almost insulting to them, you know. here we draft them to be jurors, we say you re the ones everybody agree will with be fair. you re the ones to do the job and afterwards when it s all over, some people trash them and say they re wrong. these people gave up a chunk of their period of lives to be able to render justice in this case with their verdict. greta van sustren, thank you so very much for standing by with us tonight. we didn t know how long this would go. i mean, there were people who were saying oh, no, no, no. it will wrap up by noon. it took many more hours. we have a verdict in the george zimmerman murder trial. it s acquittal for the 29-year-old man who was accused in the case. greta, thank you very much. thank you, harris. standing by is shaun

you know, everyone worked really hard and it s very difficult tonight for everybody, for the family of both the defendant and the decedent, so this is not a night for anyone to be jubilant. we ve now seen our justice system work, you know. everyone wanted to see justice. both sides a had an equal opportunity to present evidence, and the jury has now spoken. we should all respect the verdict. you know, greta, we re watching live pictures as we talk with greta van susteren by phone. a couple of things strike me. in the beginning of this, the judge said no outburst upon reading of the verdict, and there was not one, but as you look at george zimmerman, we ll go back to him for certain. as you look at george zimmerman, he smiled a bit, subdued. this has got to be exhausting for him as well, but you re right. i mean, there s not a huge amount of celebration in all this. this has been tough all along for everybody involved, and now for trayvon martin trayvon mart had pushed so hard for au
