Any cop knows that witness testimony is flimsy at best, with more than one witness to a crime typically differing on half a dozen different aspects of a case. But one thing is a given: cops go with the first testimony a witness givesnot the one likely impacted later by family, friends and the court of public opinion.
And so it will go with George Zimmermans defense lawyer as well, when the Trayvon Martin shooting case finally goes to trial.
Until then, however, the fact that four witnesses have changed their stories somewhat should make the public concerned about witness tampering as a possibility.

Any white witnesses were probably visited by some of Crump's paid consultants...
I noticed the overlapping phone calls and have never been able to reconcile those.
Doesn't it look to you as if Crump is counting each text unit as a full minute of air time?
I'm not saying the one I've excerpted is DeeDee, but the one conservativetreehouse picked reads like any one of 25 casual friends might read. And of course, if you pick a casual friend's tweets (which pretty quickly move on), of course they'll make it look like "Crump is lying about DeeDee, all the way!" They could look at my tweets, if I tweeted, and draw the same conclusion.

The phone will accept more than one connection, simultaneously. Depending on the call plan and phone, Trayvon could have switched between callers, or they maybe could share a conference call.

The part I'm looking at doesn't even count text messages. It is, I think, strictly an accounting of voice connections. I don't care if DeeDee and Martin were on the phone for 400 minutes, or 100 - either way it's lots of time.
If you listen to the DeeDee interview near the end she says something to the effect she has/had no interest in basketball or the NBA game. But the treehouse DeeDee tweeted about watching the game if i recall correctly.
The one I have is watching Oscars on the 26th, and makes ONE remark about NBA, that being a "retweet" (spreading somebody else's remark)
