The case of the Florida man accused of fatally shooting unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin last year took two twists Tuesday at a monthly hearing attended by attorneys on both sides of the case.
MyFoxOrlando.com reports defense attorney Mark O'Mara, who is representing the alleged shooter George Zimmerman, was seeking medical records for Martin's girlfriend.
The girlfriend, known as Witness 8 in court proceedings, is considered to be a key witness in the case because she alleges she was on the phone with Martin before he was killed.
In a recorded interview with the attorney for Martin's parents last March, the girl claimed Martin said during that conversation that someone was following him. She said she heard a brief exchange between him and someone before the phone was cut off. Martin was shot shortly afterwards.
The girl had previously said in a sworn statement that she was unable to attend Martin's funeral because she had been hospitalized, but it was revealed in court Tuesday she had "lied" about the visit.
"She, in fact, did not go to the hospital as she stated under oath," defense attorney Don West said, according to MyFoxOrlando.com. "And that [prosecutor] Mr. [John] Guy represented there would not be hospital records confirming her sworn statement, because, in fact, she lied."
Guy confirmed there were no hospital records for Witness 8.

Stop while you are ahaed.
Ahem...
Ahead, not ahaed.
Haha, for a second I thought you were a llort poster attacking your first post!
Maybe Tray wasn’t out to go get ‘Skittles’ for himself...maybe it was more ‘whatever’ for his dad...
..the cops and news vans were still in the complex when he and his girly returned from their dinner. That should have set off some alrm bells also.
In Crump’s own words:

I’m waiting for the Scheme Team to explain this. I’m also waiting for chocolate bunnies to fly.
The more “evidence” the prosecution “discovers” in this case, the more it supports Zimmerman’s version of the story and the more the prosecution’s case unravels.
They’re hanging on by a slender thread now and a prudent prosecutor would acknowledge reality and cave. This bunch is going to milk this for all the race-based political hay they can, hoping that public pressure on GZ will force him to capitulate.
Good luck with that.
She never was his girlfriend because she is a “composite” girlfriend. The prosecution couldn’t ever decide if she was 15 or 20 years old. When this DeeDee was depicted as a minor, they could keep her ID a mystery - not that a real “girl friend DeeDee” ever existed. Well, there is a real DeeDee but she isn’t his girl friend nor is she this composite creation. When it was found out “she” was an adult, they hid St. Skittles’ phone and then deleted that date before handing it back over. Can you imagine that happening in any other case without them being at least reprimanded by the judge and having the whole case thrown out?
I’m hoping they continue to try to milk this and make it front page news so that the truth comes out in a way that can’t be publicly ignored. I hope it exposes the race-hustling industry in all its sordid “glory.”
I want to see truth, not cherry-picked isolated facts that favor the chosen narrative, but real truth. And then I want the race-hustlers grilled for their part in this. And some apologies from all the guilty parties, probably including the prosecutor.
Dreaming, I know. But it would be so nice. For a change.
Is that where the dad was? I never knew that....

LOL.
***The entire case against Zimmerman is a damned lie!***
But, but we have to convict Zimmerman to keep the ghettos from burning down! Throw him to the wolves! sarc/off
Would only be Urban Renewal, LBJ style...
