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)

How about after the break Rachel was having some serious nasal drainage.

Maybe she had a 'drank' during the break.

THe host said that the statement ‘You got me’ was most likely a lie and not in the same language skill with Treyvons vocabulary.

I don't think this is nearly as big a deal as a lot of people would like to make it. What Martin said and what George heard may have been 2 very different things - remember that George was having his head beat against the ground. Martin may have said something like "You shot me!", while George's ears heard "You got me!". That one statement in isolation makes very little difference as long as the majority of the evidence lines up with George's account of the incident (which so far, it does).

[Doesn’t open the windows.]

Depending on the type of window latch, and whether the latch is fully or only partially engaged, it could be used to undo the latch.

She’s not even watching the trial she’s reading tweets about it. Just let it go. Ignore.

It could also be equated too or associated with stage fright. It’s common for many people to perspire in such settings. Some people do the same in public speaking engagements.

"The look on her face when West asked her to describe the sound of wet grass was priceless."

Yes, she did have trouble describing what she meant by sound of wet grass.

Mr. hummingbird would agree with me, that in a drought-stricken area where we live, you can hear the crackling of grass. We can easily hear and describe the sound of dried-up grass.

Would definitely like to experiment on how wet grass sounds!

WE NEED RAIN!

We'd go outside to listen to wet grass big time!

Maybe we could even describe it to Mumbles Rachel!

I didn’t follow the comic book line of questioning because someone brings me back into it and I have to respond MY GOD, what is wrong with you people

Oh, for crap sake, woman. This is what you did on the thread yesterday. Relentlessly. You probably pissed off more than half the people reading the thread for actual live-time trial updates.

And now you whine that we are keeping you from following today?

Step away from the computer and park your carcass at the TV.

Have a pleasant day.

That warning being...if you are confronted by a black person you better run like hell and don’t even think about trying to defend yourself by shooting and killing them or you’re gonna do time

What it means is don't call 9/11. Shoot, get out of the area, and shut up forever about it.

BUT it can pry under a screen to remove it and then pry up the window far enough to get fingers underneath to lift it.

OK, I guess I got caught in the 'magazine' / 'clip' argument.

This is a SLIM JIM.

Good for opening auto door locks. Not good for much else, especially prying open home windows or screens.

This is a FLAT PRY BAR.

Very handy for prying open screens, doors, and windows on a house. Comes in all sizes, from pocket sized to won't even fit in the toolbox size.

Here are some other examples of just as useful tools.

The above are more 'concealable'.

Because ad hoc "citizen grand juries" are beyond worthless and a scam. They don't exist.
