Zimmerman Trial Day 3 – End-of-Day Analysis & Video of State’s Witnesses (Heeeeeeeere's "DeeDee"!)
legalinsurrection.com ^ | Wednesday, June 26, 2013 | Andrew Branca

Posted on 06/26/2013 7:09:26 PM PDT by jiggyboy

The morning saw two of the State’s witnesses testify, Jane Sudyka and Jeanee Manaloo, both of whom were residents of Twin Lakes at the time of the incident and who appeared to testify as to their observations that night.

- snip -

Although direct was straightforward with most of the witnesses, Sudyka’s credibility was effectively destroyed by West on cross, and Manaloo suffered a similar fate in cross at the hands of O’Mara.

- snip -

Anyone familiar with the backstory of Dee-Dee knows there is more than adequate fuel for real fireworks on cross-examination, but West handled her more or less with kid gloves. It is my sense, however, that he is preparing to bore in more aggressively tomorrow when he continues her cross. This seems particularly likely because at the point the Court recessed for the day Jeantel had begun to resist acknowledging prior sworn statements and West was preparing to spool up the audio recordings of those interviews to use in cross.

Despite the frequent difficulties in understand Jeantel’s responses, however, on one point she was abundantly clear–she was NOT happy to be in court. When she learned just before the Court recessed for the day that West anticipated cross-examining her for another two hours tomorrow, she burst out with an incredulous “WHAT!?!?!?” I’m pretty sure even people standing outside the courtroom heard that exclamation.

There has been much speculation of that over the past six months or so — that “DeeDee” is at best a de facto actress and not the person who did the interviews earlier.

In the time it would take for her to read three pages I could teach all six of my dog to do yoyo tricks while spinning a hula hoop.

I was surprised the Judge didn’t admonish her for that outburst. The Judge seems to be favoring the prosecution so far.


Big time.

They have to pick their battles. Re what TV she watches, I think he asked if she saw the ABC interview only as part of officially starting the ball rolling against Crump, who it would appear lied to her by not mentioning that ABC was there.

I wrote the other day that to fully deal with all her lies, they would be there through July 4th. It sounds like it will be just “a couple more hours” tomorrow.

No doubt Uncle Chip, and for THIS alone that slimy crump should be disbarred and charges brought upon him, taking extreme advantage of this girl, it’s sickening. All for the intention of exploiting this unfortunate incident and to make MONEY. What an awful bunch they all are, I know they have zero shame, but my God, what they were allowed to do to this uneducated ghetto girl, it’s utterly disgusting.

If I am reading other threads correctly, she is sequestered in a hotel with no TV, radio, internet, phone, or booze. That last one might be the toughest on her, plus I’d bet that she doesn’t have a habit of rolling out of bed to be somewhere by 8:30 AM. She might be as irritable as a hornet’s nest or she might be driven into the courtroom snoozing in the back seat of one of Wal-Mart’s carts — either way yeah I think you’re right that West is going to have his hands full getting anything useful out of her. But that might be just fine with him.

>>”You could tell by Jeantel’s body language and her arrogant attitude”

And you think she came off well?

West is playing her. She’s being arrogant and disrespectful, he’s being overly polite - it makes her seem even more so.

And he, oh so gently, had her agree that she wasn’t careful or cared to be accurate in what she testified to in the past.

Can’t wait for tomorrow...

A product on our schools’ emphasis on self-esteem... combined with a shaker of entitlement.

Gotta applaud the steno, and the juror, both of whom kept saying, “what”?

You do realize that....if you truly believe Jeantel.....that Trayvon called Zimmerman a nig-— and a cracker. Racist comments looking for trouble

i liked Dee Dee

Are you kidding? She is one of the biggest things wrong with America.

Go to YouTube and do a search for "McDonalds' fights" or any other thing close and she shows up in every clip.

Perry Mason was from an era in America where a case like this in which the original investigators recommended no billing would have never gone to trial.

Back in those days O.J. would have fried, we never would have heard of the Duke Lacrosse team and 

Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean would have received medals and promotions.

She’ll probably get a job with the Federal government. This is who will be deciding issues on Obamacare in the future.

Jeantel owned West.

Who the hell are you kidding? What trial are you watching??? West was establishing a foundation for what will come today --- something that all good lawyers do. He was letting her talk -- and all that talk is now on the record.

To anyone who watched her yesterday Jeantel comes across as a deeply emotionally and psychologically and mentally disturbed child and the prosecution and the Scheme Team should be ashamed for having exploited her as they have and using her as their star witness to try to put a man in prison for life.

You have it correct, indeed she is “impaired”. She has the mental capacity of a snail.
