Technically it’s not hearsay, she is a first-person witness to what she heard through the phone line.

If her testimony is offered to prove what Trayvon said, then it is not hearsay. But it is offered to prove the truth of what Trayvon said, then it is hearsay. The dying declaration exception might apply, but probably not, unless she testifies about something he said after the fight began.

What she heard in terms of struggle is not hearsay.

What don’t you understand about the definition of HEARSAY. Legally AND technically it is HEARSAY; She HEARD what he SAID. She is reiterating what she heard TRayvon say to Zimmerman. HEARSAY!
