It seems to me that it will just come down to the law.
The 911 transcript does not matter whatsoever unless he said something absolutely damning, it doesn't matter if he pursued Martin through the apartment complex in his vehicle, and then went out on foot pursuing him behind and between the buildings.
All he has to do is claim that he felt in imminent danger and that he could not escape with an alternative method.
As long as the prosecutor can not disprove those claims, there really is no case.
I disagree with it, but my logic and emotions(nor America's) should not have any bearing. Let's stick to the literal interpretation of the law.
And if the law has loopholes where a situation like this can legally occur, let's address the law.
