Grand jury convenes in civil-rights case involving George Zimmerman

Last Updated: Wednesday, November 05, 2014, 3:43 PM ORLANDO --
A federal grand gury is meeting Wednesday in downtown Orlando in the civil rights case involving George Zimmerman.
They will meet to hear testimony about whether Trayvon Martin's civil rights were violated during the 2012 shooting that led to his death.
The U.S. Department of Justice said at least one subpoena was issued for the hearing and it is believed to be Frank Taaffee, a former neighbor and supporter of Zimmerman.
After Zimmerman's acquittal on the murder charge, Taaffe changed his position, now saying he believes Martin was targeted because of his race.
In October the Washington Post reported that there would likely be no federal charges brought against Zimmerman because of insufficient evidence citing three law enforcement officials with knowledge of the case.
