People stand together during the "March for Peace" at Ives Estate Park in honor of the late Trayvon Martin on February 9, 2013 in Miami, Florida. Martin was killed by George Zimmerman on February 26, 2012 while Zimmerman was on neighborhood watch patrol in the gated community of The Retreat at Twin Lakes in Sanford, Florida.

It has been exactly one year since the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida.
George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer, was suspicious of the young, black man he saw walking through his gated community. The two got into a fight and Zimmerman fatally shot Martin.

Zimmerman claims he shot the teen in self-defense, and he's been charged with second degree murder and his trial is set for June.
