Looks like the medical examiner has been fired. Also looks like he may be suing as well.

Medical examiner in Zimmerman case fired

Bao performed Trayvon Martin's autopsy in February 2012 and offered conflicting testimony at Zimmerman's murder trial in July about how long the 17-year-old Martin could have lived after he was shot during a struggle with the former neighborhood watch leader.
Attorney Willie E. Gary has since been retained by Bao and said he plans to file a lawsuit for wrongful termination, discrimination and job harassment against the Volusia medical examiner's office, Sanford police department and the prosecutors. Gary said Bao contends they "set him up to fail" and that prosecutors didn't properly prepare him to testify in the trial. He expects to file the suit in a week.

Wait.....please clarify on why he was fired again? Was it because he sucked on the witness stand or was there malfeasance during his autopsy findings?





*hmmm, seems they refuse to say why.

Unfortunately it was obvious from the get go that this was nothing more than a reaction by the media and local government to cater to the race brigaiders.


Thankfully after this massive embarrassment it will be quite a long time before we have to deal with another case like this.

We have one side of the story that requires fill on the blanks.

Are those blanks in the termination letter?

ROFL I'm sure it's some conspiracy.

I would say it's not his fault that there never was any probable cause based on the evidence and witness statement to justify arresting, detaining in custody, and charging or prosecuting GZ per Florida law or why the case ended in an acquittal for the same reasons.

I'm not sure I have ever loved anything as much as you love that GIF. I doubt the late George Burns ever had occasion, in his 50+ year career, to repeat the same joke as many times as you have.

In all fairness we have no way of knowing why this guy was fired, and it seems quite possible it has nothing to do with the Zimmerman case (where, after all, this guy seemed to be doing his best to help the prosecution in an unwinnable effort). It seems likely to me that his lawyer is spinning this as though he is collateral damage in the failed prosecution as a way of garnering media attention. Maybe it's true, maybe it's not.

one of the comments summed up the trial:
black punk in a hoodie vs nutjob with a gun

"For all those new to this soap opera, this is happening because a black punk in a hoodie decided to confront a nutjob with a gun, and then punch the nutjob on the nose. Legally, the nutjob shot him (how this can happen legally is another subject). During a jury trial there was zero evidence that this happened in any way that shows the black punk in a hoodie was targeted or stalked in a way that endangered his life, and in fact showed clearly that the black punk in a hoodie was the attacker. But being black in America means the black punk in a hoodie has no responibility and it must be someone else's fault so all sorts of people will be blamed or fired."

Not only was the thug the attacker, but he was very clearly racist and attacked that cracker as a hate crime - per the state's star witness.

Glad he is dead...a strong lesson to all the other punks/hoods out there to take their egos down a notch and not harass other people.

Reading between the lines of why this guy was fired.....


It looks to me like they're upset that he told the truth regarding that piece of trash thug. They wanted him to say certain things, and he refused to do so. Good for him. Hope his lawsuit is effective.

Trayvon Martin medical examiner fired, now wants to sue Volusia

“Why should the Chinese-American guy get fired and all the white people who worked on the case, none of them got fired,” Swift said.
...
Victor Swift, a Stuart attorney, said Dr. Shiping Bao, a native of China who performed the autopsy on Trayvon Martin, is being blamed for mistakes in the state’s case against Zimmerman. Bao, who lives in Port Orange, earned $176,000 per year.

Article from the local Daytona Beach paper...

Surprisingly accurate summation

They fired a guy in IT after he let the defense know about evidence that was being witheld. Trying to figure out how that is legal.
