Even if you are probably going to be technically found not guilty, you'll probably still have to go through a trial, have your name and face on the news, worry about vigilante justice, and have your life if not ruined, then severely impacted.

I think this is an important point. Even though Zimmerman was found not guilty and therefore isn't going to jail, it's not like his life is back to normal. At a minimum, he's essentially going to either be under house arrest (of sorts) for years or risk nutjobs retaliating against him.
The lives of him and his family are going to be negatively impacted by this for a very long time, regardless of the verdict. You can bet your ass he wished he would've done something differently that night.
