Untill the idiot prosecutors slip up and allude to any aspects of St. Skittle’s past - like what a good boy he was; and then the defense attornies will spring.

I think the joke worked. It played right into what the ordeal that the jurors have gone through so far, in terms of selection, processing, red tape, etc.

I don’t think so, I thought the “judge” said no social media stuff could be entered?

Anyone who knows nothing about this is to ignorant to be on a jury. IMHO.

Are you sure? After he delivered the joke, he said with a surprised face, “Nothing?!”

They have already called Travyon a “boy” just days past being 16. That is close enough for me but I am not the judge.
I told myself I would NOT watch this but I WILL stop now! :)

Don West is slaughtering the opening statements. He stumbles over his points instead of driving them home. He misspeaks then corrects himself. He pauses and backs up chronologically which confuses the timeline. Good grief.
I’ve heard that Mark O’Mara is an outstanding defense attorney. Why isn’t he delivering the opening statements?

I sat on a municipal court jury in Contra Costa County for an underage DUI case, and we were all given notebooks for our own notes. We had to leave them in the courtroom overnight, and they were collected at the end of the trial.

Yes, I’m sure I heard some chuckles throughout the courtroom.

I wound up wishing O’Mara was doing it. O’Mara is a lot shrewder and smoother, from where I sit. Still, West covered a LOT of salient stuff that is utterly devastating to the prosecution.
The judge is coming across like a menopausal witch. #EstrogenTravesty

He's quite right. All these people said they "know nothing"...about Zimmerman and the case. They don't watch the news, read the paper or talk to people. Are we talking about jurors or the majority of the regular uninformed voting public? /sarc
To: Responsibility2nd
I think that joke was a subtle reminder to the jury that they have to clear their minds as to what they knew about Mr Zimmerman before they were seated.
I see nothing wrong with that joke.
Although a joke in the midst of a serious trial is out of place. Times have changed. Where’s Perry Mason?
To: Responsibility2nd
So, did the defencse get a call last night from hussein to intentionally lose the case? Can’t have whitey get out of this... oh, wait, part hispanic and part black, ooops.

Could it vary by County? I’d swear we were told not to take notes.

The way he prefaced it was appropriate and profound, but most people will never hear or read about that.

...which is okay, perhaps, because the jury is who counts, really.
