In the latest development, the Sanford police department admits that
its "investigators"—yes, I am putting quotation marks around that
word—missed a crucial part of the recording of the phone call that
George Zimmerman, the shooter, made to the police as he followed
Martin around. They say they missed him muttering a racist slur,
"fuckin' coons," under his breath to the police operator.
Several people, apparently starting with Sirius XM radio talk host Joe
Madison Tuesday morning, listened to the recording of Zimmerman's call
to the cops, in some cases making technical adjustments to bring more
clarity to what's being said. The recording, including the racist
slur, was played on Lawrence O'Donnell's "Last Word" Tuesday evening.
O'Donnell said his reporting experience with police cover-ups made him
believe that there is "evidence of a police coverup." There is, he
said, evidence that the police department "never wanted anyone to hear
those two words and that's why we haven't heard those two words until
today."
