George Zimmerman
George Zimmerman is a former neighborhood watch volunteer who gained national attention in the United States for the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin in 2012, a case that reignited debates over race, self-defense laws, and gun control. Zimmerman claimed he acted in self-defense under Florida's stand-your-ground law, which led to a highly publicized trial and discussions about racial profiling and the implications of such laws on community safety.
