The DemocRATS from Barry on down want some kind of “guilty” verdict. They’ll take anything as long as they find Zimmerman “guilty” of SOMETHING.
I would think that there would be sufficient grounds for a conviction to overturned. My fear for Zimmerman is that if he is convicted for manslaughter, Nelson will immediately have him remanded to custody while awaiting sentencing. She will ignore the findings of the probation department and give him 30 years. Then while he is waiting on his appeal, he will be assassinated in prison.
I’ve been convinced this beyotch just wanted to boot the case into the appeals court as quickly as possible after realizing how bad the prosecution’s case was.
Exactly what they are hoping for my FRiend.
Crazy Ass Cracker got what was coming to him will be the mantra and King Obama will smile.
If such a thing happened and I were GZ's father I might be very strongly tempted to arrange for the judge to, ummm, kind of disappear completely in about six months or so and never be found.
She should be disbarred and sued into poverty by Zimmerman. It’s like the judge was another prosecutor as bad as mike Nifong (Duke Lacross case).
what a loser bitch...
I can't help but wonder the same thing.
I tried to find something about such a tactic-- judges deliberately poisoning their trials to ensure the verdict is reversed on appeal. I could not find anything, but perhaps somebody here could provide insight.
But here's a thought: doesn't it cut both ways? Can't the prosecution appeal the verdict if the trial is shown to be flawed? It's double jeopardy, but there have been instances where people were convicted during a second trial.
This is racism...Obammy doesn’t watch TV and doesn’t know anything about Baby Trayvon....his spokesman says so.../s
Oh please..
This was not a kangaroo court unless your only point of reference is the lawyer shows on TV...
Folks here have a point of view that I personally agree with but I know the judicial system well enough to call BS on all the claims of bias from both sides..

Just say no to jury duty. Tell them you don’t trust lawyers, the judge, or the system under our current DOJ.
The same cowardice shown by Pres Bush and the GOP House, in passing bills that they felt were unConstitutional, expecting SCOTUS to strike it down, then deflecting blame when they did not. Pathetic, cowardly, and utterly useless.
Kangaroo court,
That’s our justice system, wake up!
I remember two jackasses and a gorilla. But no kangaroos.
2nd degree - not guilty
manslaughter - can't reach verdict!
What if:
2nd degree - not guilty
manslaughter - not guilty!
I guess they'll be finger pointing why it even went to trial...
Prosecutor can only retry for a hung jury, dismissal without prejudice before a verdict (usually admin stuff) or if they didn’t charge for something and decide to later - so say they don’t charge for a theft because they are still investigating but do try the murder which the evidence is already processed for. (though they are supposed to charge at the same time if the information is available). Or that’s my understanding.
So you don’t think the judge was biased. Is that your view?
