Today, June 28th, is DAY #15 (of 3rd week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case. [Yesterday] it was simply not a very good day at all for the prosecution. The primary State witnesses today were Rachel Jeantel, Jenna Lauer, and Selma Mora.
The first had her credibility substantively destroyed, the second was powerfullyalmost humiliatinglyco-opted by the defense, and the third provided testimony entirely consistent with the defenses theory of lawful self-defense. (continue reading)

The point I made to those reluctant in the jury to let the guy go was the state DID NOT prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. I was proud to be the one to make that point stick, because it was the truth of the matter.
It's likely what the jurors will find here, unless they feel threatened by the race baiters.
I write/eat with my left but do everything else including shoot with my right. Holster on right side.

Aren’t Skittles involved?
You're right, I wasn't thinking clearly...
Wow, wftv finally found a member of George’s family to put on the screen. Miracles.
The prosecutor isn’t throwing the case he just doesn’t have the evidence.
More witnesses means more overtime. Prosecutor has got his eye on a shiny new Maserati.
Now that I’m thinking about it, it would be faster for me to get my gun if the holster ‘was’ on the opposite side of the hand I would use to draw. Gun would have the handle facing the front. It would be alot faster to draw it that way.
Yet the media couldn't find out a thing about Trayvon's father in the White Hut in 6 years...
No, I took that back...just thinking out loud.
I’m left handed (writing mainly) but shoot right handed (and almost everything else)
Is the judge Angela Corey’s sister?
WESH is reporting that the defense illicited testimony from officer Smith that the second degree murder charge was taken off the table. None of the elements of 2nd degree was present at the time he was taken into custody. They are saying it was bullets in the prosecutions case and it is over. Any legal minds here?
Since prosecutors are government employees, they don't get paid by the hour, and generally don't get overtime.
Even then. I am an EMT. I often leave patients with the cops. Happens all the time.

The flaw in your argument is that jury will be instructed that it cannot convict on lesser charges. Only in cases where the defendent is not claiming self defense can the jury consider the lesser charge. If the state fails to prove murder two, then it doesn’t get another chance to try you for a lesser charge. It’s double jeopardy otherwise.
Roger that.
Is it appropriate to think of Satan’s spawn as having a sibling relationship? Just wondering.
