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)

They have not come on live streaming yet. I am watching them locally and Bill Schaeffer on WFTV said the state filed a motion regarding a facebook pic Wests daughters had on facebook. Bill S. said it was a side show and the lawyers don’t like each other. They will probably discuss this at 1:25 pm when they return from lunch.

[I heard enough to know it was a problem.]

...and we have seen enough of your screaming to determine what YOUR problem is so put down that bottle of Captian Morgans Rum and take a nap.


Sounds like you are the one who is sucking on a bottle.

You don’t need to come in playing defense for the thread’s biggest disruptor. Chill.

They are not going to send some guy to prison for the rest of his life just because they are afraid to render a verdict in his favor. They would have to live with that for the rest of their lives.

I pray you are right and these jurors have common sense, intelligence and have a conscience.

Well, I googled it after I saw your thread pulled. I figured it be a double post.

I passed the typical chicken little sites, but when I saw bizjournal, well....I guess I don’t know enough about bizjournal to be aware....they are now blacklisted with me. Not for reporting the story, but for misleading with the statement about the conviction. They were clear the Grand Jury was citizens, but it was the next comment that got me. The one where they said she was going to be tried...I didn’t know the citizen thing actually tried cases too... oh well.

The state filed a motion about a instagram pic of a man eating ice cream with his daughters?

You have to be BSing us. Really? I think it would be great for the Defense if that is really happening.

If they declare a mistrial, they can charge Zman again. It becomes a matter of how much money he can spend.

And now I see down the page (not part of the article) the fine print at the bottom says: Orlando Business Journal is not responsible for this content.

Really?? Morons. That doesn’t get them out of losing credibility....

He did not get specific about names. He just meant those representing the state versus those representing the defense.

There was an instagram or some other website social media of the defense attorney and his daughter having an ice cream cone after the Jabba the Hut girl’s testimony. Underneath the daughter wrote: WE BEAT STUPIDITY.

Not sure what the motion would be.... to remove him as defense counsel? More likely to ask that he be held in contempt and prohibited from making ‘out of court comments’ about the case. Something like that.

Mostly an attempt to embarrass the defense who is kicking their butts and to throw the media a bone. They want some sideline story for additional Team TM outrage.
