The one MOM needs to call is the woman who raised Martin. He then needs to ask her if she can identify the voice (she can’t, if she could could Bernie would have called her). Then MOM needs to question here about her relationship with Martin versus the lying biological mother. She told Anderson Blooper (apparently only interview she has given) that Martin NEVER MENTIONED his real mother to her the entire time he was being reared by her. Now I know this. If a kid is taken away from his real parent at an early age and the real parent still has a normal relationship with him, like visitation, etc, he would occasionally bring her name up. Alicia Stanley also sounds like a nice Christian woman. She kept referencing God when she was talking to Blooper. She said that gold-digger Sybrina would not let her sit on the front row with the rest of the family at the funeral and they had ignored her since the shooting. MOM needs to bring all this out for the jury. Jury has a right to hear from the woman that raised Martin, whether she can identify his voice or not.
so do I UC, but I harbor a nagging fear that this is not an altogether good idea from the Defense's POV. The State will cross, and with an agendized judge clearly on their side, they could very well lead a jury down a garden path.
"Did you ever utter the "n!**%$" word?" As the defense gets "aggressive," all it will take is one "nice" lady to on the jury to turn against Zimmerman. A hung jury could lead to re-indictment, endless Dershowitz appeals, and perhaps to serial riots. On the bright side, it could also stimulate endless sales of St. Trayvon Memorabilia.
Perhaps the Defense just ought to rest. Or just recall Prosecution witnesses?
IIRC, Tray was at his father’s because his step mother was apparently po’d at his suspension and kicked him out.
I’m still betting that on Monday, Mark will start with “Thank God”....”Thank God”....”Thank God”....
Memorialize this exchange.
We have that all taken care of. The jury’s lunches all next week will be catered by Paula Deen. Problem solved.
And as far as appeals, think of all the merchandising opportunities. Cha-Ching $$$$$$$$$$$
BTW we still don’t have your expense report in for the month of June and please remember that we don’t reimburse for parking tickets or meals with Natalie Jackson.
O'Mara is very slick and has used West to be his pit bull when such was needed (because West can be exceedingly thorough without seeming to be mean).
All in all, I have found the O'Mara/West team absolutely brilliant in both there execution of the defense's case against the prosecution and their sensitivity to the emotional element of this case.
Now we are going to see that brilliance on even greater display...greater by an order of magnitude.
There were a number of quotes like that on the daily trial thread yesterday. We thought they were jokes and FReepers were getting the Friday Sillies, but no! That was really said. There were some other howlers, too.
“Judge” Nelson: We’ll ask the jury if they want to recess to Monday. Does the Jury want to go home for the weekend or continue with the Defense case?
Jury (several people at once): We want to go.
Nelson: The Jury says it wants to go, so we’ll continue. Defense, call your first witness.
All ya need to know about $$$ybrina is she’s a liar. O ‘Mara asks her a question, and she replies “I don’t understand the question”. She understands the question, she’s a liar. The answers a lie. The answer is a non answer, and the butter face judge allows the non answer. Very telling.
Bao has testified previously in cases 20 times. This is amazing. Are these guys deliberately trying to throw this case?
Amish just bein Amish?
The only thing going for the persecution is that they are out of witlesses.
MoM is going to argue the facts because he owns all the facts. Despite the fact that the judge is a total bitch with regards to allowing them time to prepare, he and West are very good at time management. He said he spends 9 hrs in court and then has to spend another 3-4 hrs after court to take depositions.
Here you are using “black community” in a geographic sense. That is NOT what the PC crowd means...
...of course, you’re correct in that...I was responding to your comment that the ‘black community’ referenced in common parlance has no ‘character, only color’...I get your intention, and agree, but I also strongly submit that a ‘character’ does indeed exist for the concept of ‘racial blackness’, and it has existed for a long time...I’m 64 years old, and I would no more have walked through a black area at 14, because danger would surely have found me, as it would today...this character is a wanton violence unleashed on the ‘non-community’, which I don’t see in the reverse, though they themselves may claim it to be so...
“Did you ever utter the “n!**%$” word?”...
...they don’t have to ask anything that blatant on cross...just ask if Zimmerman ever watched Paula Deen on television...that should do the trick...
