Day 17 (Week #4) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 2, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 07/02/2013 5:16:14 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

Today, July 2nd, is DAY #17 (of 4th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.

Today Detective Chris Serino will be back on the stand. [Yesterday ended] on the stand with Chris Serino, who was the lead investigator for the Sanford Police Department on the Trayyvon Martin shooting.

Defense counsel Mark O’Mara led cross-examination with his usual consummate skill, obtaining responses from this witness–remember, the State’s witness–that all but completely guts the State’s charge in this case.

Among the key revelations so far: Zimmerman was always completely cooperative, open, and straightforward with all the police investigators over many weeks of multiple interviews, both in person at the police station and phone. The sense given is that Zimmerman demonstrated endless patience. (continue reading summary)

It would be a lot easier to treat someone as a mature adult when they write coherent sentences and spell out the word “people”.

From DU:

“I think Zimmerrman intentionally injured himself, to make it appear he had been beaten up.”

“I only wish Travon had actually jumped out from the non existent bushes and punched him in the nose until it squished on his face and hit him so hard he fell on his back,, while Zim, screamed like a little girl, as he fell on his back, and while Travon had his phone in his Kung Fu grip and was chatting up his girlfriend, grabbed that sniveling shrinking violet, sobbing and screaming crybaby, brandishing his gun laying on his back, with his head on the sidewalk, screaming save me, aggghhhhhhh, wah, wah, kicking his legs(probably), help me, help me, I’m a scared, little baby, help, help, I’m a sissy, wimpy, scaredy cat, FUCKING NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH CAPTAIN, wah wah, help, help, save me I’m so scared. And our guy Travon, doesn’t miss a beat as he jumps on top of him and pounds Zimmerman’s head ruthlessly into the sidewalk, big blood stains(right?)”

“And Zimmerman just never quit crying and pleading for his life until after he fires the gun.
(He must have been so frightened) The gun fires. The screaming stops. What a little kitten.”

One of those nightly panels is on a show called “HLN After Dark.” Last night they actually put together some kind of jury - I think it was 9 or 10 women and 2 or 3 men. The question that they were asked to answer was “Does Zimmerman’s story make sense?” Referring mostly to all the video and audio evidence presented on Monday. The results were really scary for Zimmerman: 11 votes “No” and 1 vote “Yes.” All the women voted “No.”

This is ABSURD. The state trying to get the officer’s testimony about Z’s credibility negated with the jury... just because he testified positively for Zimmerman.


What is funny is that NPR already reported his testimony. The liberal world has heard it.

When that is absent, the system is put in a strange situation, like running your toaster on water. The rules don't work "right" anymore.

Most apt comments. It's 1984 in Bizzaro world.

The systematic functions that are supposed to help defendant, that are supposed to force the state to prove its case, are being used to hurt defendant, and shift the burden to defendant to prove innocence.

In other words, in this trial.....everything is skewed and backasswards. But then, that is usually, if not always, the case when or if leftists are pursuing their agenda. The rule of law and logic and justice is out the window.

O’Mara is ticked, or at least his objection to the “non-question statement” seems to say so....

He’s coming across as downright hostile and angry...tsk tsk. And it’s early yet. Maybe HE hasn’t had his caffeine fix yet either...?

Bernie playing back Z 911 call and having Serino say that Z exhibited hate and spite.
