what was in the backpack of the kid shot in Florida. Was it enough to get him convicted as a burgler?

I realize that a smart prosacuser will have this eliminated but the public wants to know

    The question is irrelevant. The incident/death was predicated on an attack, not whether or not the kid was burglarizing a home, even though the claim was made that he was believed to be a burglar. As some FL prosecutors have stated, it's what happened 60 seconds before the incident that matters legally.... the rest is just fodder for the media.

I was a patrol officer for 4 years in a very diverse area. I was a tactical officer in the high rise project areas of my city. We called it vertical patrol in that we walked the the stairways of the high rises most of the time. I did that for 5 years and was promoted by test to detective. I worked violent crime (homicide, sex, officer involved shootings, robbery, kidnapping, serious non property incidents) for 11 years until I was promoted to sergeant. I worked as a street supervisor, a bicycle patrol supervisor and a desk sergeant/watch commander. During my time as a tactical officer and a detective I was a unit representative for the police union. I have a B.A in English and an M.S. in Law Enforcement Administration....
