WOLFINGER
Wolfinger Warns Adult Bookstores
By Lynne Bumpus-Hooper of The Sentinel Staff, February 11, 1987
State
Attorney Norm Wolfinger has put adult-bookstore owners in Brevard
County on notice that if they don't start policing themselves, his
office will.Wolfinger sent a letter to store owners outlining the jury
conviction of adult-bookstore owners Marian and Samuel Wallace. The
Wallaces, who operated Leather and Lace in Cocoa Beach, were tried in
October and sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison and 7 1/2 years of
probation in January under the state Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt
Organizations Act. Their case was the state's first RICO conviction
involving the sale of obscene materials.
Miller, Wolfinger Are At It Again
May 17, 1987
SO
BREVARD County's self-designated guardians of the public morality,
Sheriff Jake Miller and State Attorney Norman Wolfinger, have come up
with another way to save the people from themselves. They have decided
to crack down on your corner video store that stocks videos they
consider obscene. Apparently the wave of drugs, robberies, burglaries,
and murders that is afflicting our county has not kept our top law
enforcement officials busy enough, so they seem to feel the need to make
criminals out of legitimate business people who rent videos they find
offensive.
Wolfinger Once Again
August 25, 1992
There
is more to the state attorney's job than being a prosecutor. For one
thing, in the Seminole-Brevard circuit it means managing a $7 million
annual budget and a staff of 181 - 79 of them lawyers.That's why Norm
Wolfinger is the better choice for voters in the Sept. 1 Republican
primary. He has held the job for eight years. While opponent John
Galluzzo has some fine qualities, he hasn't made the case that he can do
a better job.Since there is no Democrat in this race, the primary
winner will assume the office.
Prosecutor Tougher If Victim's White
By Debbie Salamone And Lynne Bumpus Hooper of The Sentinel Staff, June 1, 1992
Norm
Wolfinger, state attorney for Seminole and Brevard counties, is hard on
killers, especially those who kill whites.He has sought the death
penalty about three times more often for killing whites than for killing
blacks, Hispanics and members of other minority groups, The Orlando
Sentinel found in a survey of murder cases since 1986.His office seeks
and wins more capital cases than any other prosecutor's office in
Central Florida.And although state attorneys in Orange, Osceola, Volusia
and Lake counties also sought death more often for killers of whites,
Wolfinger was about 50 percent more likely to do so.Some leaders in the
minority community say the research confirms what they have asserted for
a long time.
- Top 5 Unanswered Questions About Trayvon Martin Case
- What is the relationship between George Zimmerman’s father, a retired Virginia judge, and the prosecutors and law enforcement?
- Why was no background check conducted on Zimmerman?
- After Wolfinger had already decided against charging Zimmerman, why did Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee say the investigation was being turned over to the state attorney’s office?
- Why did the city manager say police believed Zimmerman’s story, when the lead detective actually didn’t, but was being forced to accept it by the State’s Attorney?
- What is the relationship between Zimmerman and the one eyewitness who allegedly corroborated his account?

Shut up, Geraldo. Just shut the hell up.
A petition is circulating to get Geraldo Rivera off the air.
And that’s a good thing. But a better thing would be to prosecute and convict Rivera for conspiracy to violate rights … he’s known since the 1980′s that Brevard/Seminole State Attorney Wolfinger is too corrupt to decide whom to prosecute, READ MORETrayvon Martin family lawyers hit back at Wolfinger: 'This family deserves answers'

Trayvon Martin’s family responded to Seminole County State Attorney Norman Wolfinger Tuesday, after Wolfinger called the allegations the family wants the Justice Department to review, “outright lies.”
Wolfinger’s office released a statement yesterday blasting a letter sent by Benjamin Crump, one of the attorneys for Martin’s family, to the Justice Department, asking the feds to probe whether the state attorney for Seminole County met with then-Sanford police chief Bill Lee Jr. and his top criminal investigator, Robert O’Connor, on the night Trayvon Martin was shot to death by George Zimmerman, and whether they overruled the lead homicide detective and released Zimmerman, rather than charging him with a crime. The letter also asked for an investigation into the police department’s overall handling of the case. Wolfinger recused himself from the case on March 23rd, and Florida Gov. Rick Scott replaced him, along with the Duval County state attorney, Angela Corey.
Wolfinger’s statement called the allegations in Crump’s letter “outright lies,” saying:
“I am outraged by the outright lies contained in the letter by Benjamin Crump to Deputy Assistant Attorney General Roy Austin dated April 2, 2012. I encourage the Justice Department to investigate and document that no such meeting or communication occurred. I have been encouraging those spreading the irresponsible rhetoric to stop, and allow State Attorney Angela Corey to complete her work. Another falsehood distributed to the media does nothing to forward that process.”
