Imagine what these witnesses would look and sound like being cross-examined by a defense attorney.

Zimmerman. The Prosecution witnesses mostly supported the Defense.

There were 60 witnesses and the impression I got from the news conference is that most of them were black. They were apparently grilled and re-questioned by the Grand Jury when their testimony did not comport with the physical evidence.

You will notice that it didn’t take long for the media to eschew airing the actual witnesses — one of whom reportedly took part in the struggle with the officer — in favor of attorney spokesmen.

Early on, a few of them made it to the airwaves and anyone who has watched COPStv have seen this sort of witness before: “And den Michael Brown put his hans up and say ‘don’t shoot’ and the wite po-leece shot ‘im inna back.”

The media coverage was appallingly biased.
