I’ll say it again, this judge is in over her head.
Remember DD explicitly talking about fighting...go back and see what she said. She knew there was a fight.
She seems to be incompetent and needs to be off the bench.
Why should the judge bother to read about it? She’s not interested in the truth. Rather the opposite, it seems. It’s clear that she’s becoming increasingly angry because the prosecution case is so weak and the defense is doing so well despite her best efforts.
How this is different from a Soviet trial, I can’t see.
Well Floriduh.
The Judge should have given sanctions against the State
for WITHHOLDING EXCULPATORY and RELEVANT EVIDENCE
BUT instead affirmed she runs a kangaroo court.
Then, she went after Zimmerman personally.
I cant help thinking, being as the prosecution and de judge are doing such overtly and BLATANTLY absurd things - are these a setup to have something later reversed or thrown out ?
The judge is trying to get a conviction, and it ain’t workin’.
I’ve lent my phone out to anyone wishing to send a text message thousands of times. Hasn’t everyone?
Give me a break here.
Evidence with held and probably deleted by the defense, this thing looks to me like somebody on the prosecutorial side needs to serve some jail time.
When this trial is over an investigation should be made about who erased messages and who has hidden evidence in this Kangaroo court.
I know virtually nothing about legal procedures, so when you say, “reversible error”, what does that mean?
The consistent stance of the court seems to be that Trayvon Martin is the defendant with a presumption of innocence and that George Zimmerman is a prosecutor trying to prove Martin’s guilt in order to justify self-defense.
I’m a little behind on the whole text argument here. Are Martin’s texts just now being turned over?
If Zimmerman is convicted, the defense can use this judge’s rulings in their appeal.
Anyway, she did allow the defense to use the animation piece in their closing. Dis-allowing the incriminating text messages of Martin was a huge blunder by the judge and may come back to haunt her.
All that said, it would take an act of the devil for that jury to convict Zimmerman.
The defense did submit this as part of their motion. I heard the judge reference it this morning. In her verbal “sustained” she gave no reason.

There are very few positive things coming out of this trial.
However, it does reinforce my firm belief that we have a show trial system where both sides attempt to get the best “half truth” heard by the jury and the thing on the bench is just a tool of government abuse.
I hope if there is a riot after the verdict the judge gets out in the street between the two warring factions to try and stop it. Her deliberate and obvious attempts to subvert justice would be quickly rewarded.
This judge is either grossly incompetent or, in the tank for the Obamabots, 100%. She should be removed from the trial!! Also her manner is unbecoming to a respected member of the bench!!! She belongs with all the hating race baiters in the Obama/Martin camp!!!
This nitwit is a judge?
I’m torn on this... because I have a teen and twenty something year old who grew up on the internet. I have little doubt T Martin wrote those texts... however, kids do borrow each others phones and notoriously write embarassing things on other peoples facebook pages, or text people without their friends permission.
Which is why I’m surprised the story of the boy who is sitting in jail for idiotic facebook posts is sitting in jail.
Authenticating the texts would be difficult, as T Martin is deceased.
