Among its reports, Trayvon Martin’s drug use, explaining how the Skittles and Arizona Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail drink he carried that night are ingredients that, when mixed with dextromethorphan (DXM) cough syrup, create “Lean”, a concocted high which can cause psychosis and aggression over the longer term. According to the autopsy report, Martin’s liver showed damage consistent with DXM abuse.
Trayvon is seeking a source for the prescription drug Codeine. Eventually we learn that he’s not seeking the pill form, but rather a “liquid” form, which he says he’s “had…before.”
His friend responds that he doesn’t NEED codeine – that he can just mix Robitussin and soda to make…
“…some fire @$$ lean.”
.......................
Purple Lean, or Lean, is an intoxicating beverage also known by the names lean, sizzurp, and liquid codeine. It is commonly abused by southern rappers and wannabe suburban teenagers. It is a mixture of Promethazine/Codeine cough syrup and sprite, or other beverage [such as Arizona Watermelon] with a few jolly ranchers and/or skittles thrown in.
You bet the prosecution and the compromised judge weren't going to allow any discussion of Trayvon's drug use at all costs as he was likely bringing home some ingredients for the drug "Lean".
The kid was shot dead, and then he was, in essence, 'convicted' in the trial of being the perpetrator rather than the victim. When will the wnd nut jobs have enough of smearing a dead teenager?
I guess when people like him know their place.

When are you going to stop excusing people for violent behavior because they are young and/or black? Are you a racist? The wnd merely reported the news. I take it since you have nothing to gainsay the facts reported that you agree with them?

Wow. It's almost like you don't know a damned thing about the rules of evidence or criminal law.
As Jonathan Capehart wrote in The Washington Post:
The Zimmerman acquittal now makes it clear that justice for an innocent black child killed requires proof that he lived his life beyond reproach at all times.

But isn't labeling Martin as a drug abuser who was carrying an illegal substance rather than Skittles an attempt to justify both Zimmerman's shooting of Martin and your own position?
