Angela Corey, the prosecutor who failed to win a second-degree murder conviction against George Zimmerman after he shot Trayvon Martin, could lose her bid for re-election.
Corey, who has gained national attention because of Zimmerman and several other high-profile cases, is up against two opponents in the Aug. 30 Republican primary for the state attorney’s office, which handles three northeast Florida counties. Polls have shown Corey trailing, and the race in recent weeks has taken a brutish turn amid a flurry of negative television ads.
