Wasn’t SYG the reason Zimmerman was let off in the first place?

I seem to recall the lack of evidence was the reason given. A lot of people interpreted that to mean he could invoke SYG. It does make prosecutions more difficult in some cases. Zimmerman’s defense team may still use the law in their defense, they’ll use any tool available. Although with his version of the story it wouldn’t necessarily apply to his situation.
