Bernardo coughed up the letter the same day that O'Mara was scheduled to depose Witness 8

I thought it was 2 days later at Sybrina's deposition 3/15/13

-- I thought it was 2 days later at Sybrina's deposition 3/15/13 --

15 March 2013 is what the prosecution's summary of production says (13th supplemental production, 27th of March 2013), noting that a letter from Witness 8 to Sybrina was previously provided.

O'Mara told the press that he received it the day of Witness 8's deposition. I'll go with O'Mara's recollection, although he might be doing the prosecution a favor by assigning that particular earlier date. I give O'Mara's remark credence becuase he would easily remeber receiving that letter on the same day he is scheduled to depose that witness.

George Zimmerman case: State reveals new letter from key witness in Trayvon Martin shooting - By Jeff Weiner, Orlando Sentinel, 3:08 p.m. EDT, March 29, 2013

In an interview with the Orlando Sentinel on Friday, defense attorney Mark O'Mara said he received the new letter March 13, the day he deposed Witness 8 in South Florida.

"I'm glad I have it now. I don't know when (the state) received it," O'Mara said, adding prosecutors would not say when they did.
