If 0bama had a son, he'd be like Trayvon, so like father, like son.
No problem when they “accidently” leaked Zimmerman’s records, though.
Trayvon was a disaster waiting to happen. George Zimmerman just stumbled into his path.
Don’t they really mean “muddy the waters”?
I don’t see what that has to do with the case anyway. Even if he got all F’s then big deal he is dead and that is what needs to be focused on and see if he was in the wrong for his death or was the other dude who shot him was in the wrong. That is all you really need. When is this trial anyway? It seems to be taking forever.
My sense is that Martin’s DISCIPLINARY record at school may be admissible, particularly if there are negative entries shortly before his confrontation with Zimmerman. Even if the jury does not see the file contents, it can hear from a school official testifying about what misdeeds Martin did, when, and in what manner he was disciplined.
Martin’s GRADES probably are not relevant ... unless the prosecution “opens the door” by suggesting that Martin was a “good” or “hard-working” student. So the prosecution has to be careful not to do that.

Ah! American justice........what a complete joke!
you mean he WENT TO SCHOOL??? It must be for the free breakfast and lunch.
Seems the prosecution is trying it’s damnest to keep Zimmerman from getting a fair trial. In this case, it is important to show why a kid was aggressive enough to go after Zimmerman. With those records, the defense can possibly show that Martin was affected enough to be somewhat irrational at the time of the attack. Those records should be released. If anything, it may bolster the case against Zimmerman if it doesn’t help him. My guess is the prosecution already knows what is in them and that is why they are fighting to keep them private.

No, O'Mara is merely trying to correct the Democrat newsrooms' disinformation campaign about Trayvon. His "reputation"? Really? Who determines that? Just yeaterday I saw a Democrat newsroom story about Trayvon and, naturally, they used the old photo of Trayvon as a smiling, innocent 13-year-old to accompany the story. Heaven forfend they should use any of the thug photos of Trayvon that are available all over the place.
Obviously, the school records are very incriminating.
The judge will have a hard time not releasing Martin’s records when the court has already released Zimmerman’s. Zimmerman’s records actually more protected by law...had he law been followed.
The prosecution knows Trayvon Martin was a Ghetto Thug
Yep, if Trayvon’s violent record is allowed in the trial, the show is over!
I’m hoping the defense will subpoena Trayvon’s birth certificate to show he wasn’t 9 years old at the time of the shooting...
I voted for Scott the first time, nut I will be a sonofabitch before I do it again.
