THE BALTIMORE SUN NEWS FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 2013 Councilman wants city to boycott Florida after Zimmerman acquittal legislation to be a model for other municipalities in Maryland and elsewhere. Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake hasn't decided whether support the resolution. "The mayor is against 'stand your see another policy that exacerbates the social issues we have in this country." Jurors found Zimmerman not guilty in the death of Trayvon Martin last month, igniting nationwide protests. Zimmerman argued he was acting in self-defense in February 2012 when he fatally shot Martin, 17, inside a gated community in Florida Mosby's resolution says the state's "stand your grand" law is applied "subjectively and inconsistently" and allows individuals with guns to act as "vigilantes." Zimmerman's attorneys did not specifically use the law in his defense, but the judge did mention a "right to stand your ground" in her instructions to the jury. Nearly half of the 50 states have "stand your ground" laws.

Mosby's legislation would not compel the city to avoid doing business with a Florida-based company, as resolutions aren't binding. Rather than push for its immediate passage Monday, Mosby said he wants the resolution to be sent to a council committee, where it can be debated. He also wants the By Yvonne Wenger The Baltimore Sun If Councilman Nick Mosby has his way, Baltimore government would boycott Florida-based businesses to protest the state's "stand your ground" law after George Zimmerman's acquittal. Mosby intends to file a resolution Monday to encourage city agencies and investment boards to avoid doing business with companies in the Sunshine State. He hopes that would pressure the Florida Legislature to rethink a law that allows individuals to use lethal force, if necessary, to defend themselves in public places.

The resolution also calls on city officials to avoid traveling to Florida or attending events in the state. "Ultimately, the purpose of the legislation is to call attention to an issue I think is very severe, and is not just a Florida issue, but an American issue," Mosby said. "I never want to see another Trayvon Martin again in my lifetime, nor do I want to ground' laws, and will review the resolution thoroughly," said her spokesman, Travis Tazelaar. The mayor announced last month that the city hired Gans, Gans Associates of Plant City, Fla, to lead recruitment efforts for a new fire chief. The company also was hired last year to help the city find a new president for the Baltimore Development Corp.

Mosby said finding a new company to identify job candidates should be considered. "I want to do what is in the best interest of the city," Mosby said. "I don't know how far we are in the process. I would definitely like to entertain the idea" ywengerbaltsun.com LOTTERY Yesterday's numbers and recent drawings. MARYLAND Match 6, Aug.

Tuminelli and other lawyers in the case had tried to argue that the law enforcement strategy was entrapment.

But prosecutors introduced evidence at trial to support their position that Davis who went by the name Tank Top and his group had previously been involved in drug robberies, and were major traffickers in their own right. Three other defendants in the case have pleaded guilty to robbery and gun charges, and one pleaded guilty to a robbery charge.
