Corey to hold News Conference on Martin Investigation

State prosecutor Angela Corey is calling a news conference for 6 this evening in Jacksonville to release new information about the investigation into the shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin.

Earlier Wednesday Trayvon Martin's parents, his lawyers and supporters including the Reverend Al Sharpton held a news conference in Washington DC.

Sharpton restated his demand for the arrest of the shooter George Zimmerman, but he said neither Martin’s family nor his supporters condone any acts or language of violence in their quest for justice.

“we are not running a hate campaign, this is a love campaign.  We love our children, we love Trayvon. We are not even anti-Zimmerman. We are anti those who think they can break the law and not have to stand before the bar of justice.”

Martin family attorney Ben Crump said he was concerned that Zimmerman's lawyers no longer have contact with him, and that he may no longer be in Florida.

The Washington Post and NBC are reporting that charges will be laid against Zimmerman.
