Day 21 (Week #5) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 9, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 07/09/2013 4:51:37 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

Today, July 9th, is DAY #21 (of 5th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.

Yesterday was the first full day of defense witnesses. Perhaps the most significant of the first set were the two police officers who stated Tracy Martin, Trayvon’s father, said on 2/28/12 the cries for help on the 911 calls were NOT Trayvon. Later in the day Tracy Martin took the stand and essentially said the two detectives were lying. A great analysis of the events from yesterday is available HERE.

What additionally strikes as important to us is the first signs of desperation from the original nucleus of the Scheme Team construct, Benjamin Crump and Daryl Parks – attorneys for the Martin family. Parks appeared on Piers Morgan show last night and the video should be watched by anyone who knows how the scheme was constructed.

We accept that Mark O’Mara is conflicted in this case, and he is trying to walk a fine line between presenting a defense to a case built on political pressure and outright fraud; Yet simultaneously avoiding exposition of both the politics and the fraud itself.

The intentionally avoided open doors exposing the fraud creates anxiety for those of us who know what is inside the room he is avoiding. Our prayers are that his passing those wide open doors is based on prudence [within an unknown strategy]. However, our fear is the hasty and politically correct avoidance might cause him to pass by the room holding the key to George Zimmerman’s ultimate ‘long-term’ freedom.

It should be noted the NAACP Annual National Convention starts in Orlando on Friday; Additionally, preparations are being made in/around Miami-Dade for a Wednesday defense wrap up with a community/LEO preparation meeting today.

>> I have been doing some thinking...how can you prove it was Trayvon sending those messages???

Like West said, one way is to correlate dates and times with known events. Another way is to track down the recipients and bring them in as witnesses (and subpoena their end of the conversation).

The law the Judge read also speaks to “circumstantial” authentication. I would presume that would entail showing such things as: no one else ever sent a message; the language of the messages was consistent with other communications by TM; and so forth.

But it takes TIME to do all of those things. Time that the prosecution screwed the defense out of by giving them the data late in the game; and time that the judge did not make up by granting the defense more time to prepare for the trial.

I know one thing for sure. She is rushing the defense intentionally and this “I have a jury back there waiting” crap is ridiculous. She is more worried about “her jury” than the dependent getting a fair trial which is why there is a jury sitting back there in the first place.

it was over for the prosecution from Day One as they just didn’t have a case.

It was over when the prosecution put a witness on the stand who could not read her own signed testimony.....case over!

Well, it doesn’t make much sense to withhold evidence if there is reasonable time to break the hold. The “judge” has to push the schedule along to the jury before the Defense catches on...and now that they have she needs to tamp down these pesky proffers.

The state wants a long chase from a Trayvon follower followed by a short beatdown and a shot.

Zimmerman couldn't chase down a slug.

My mother watches HLN and MSNBC. When the story broke about the plane crash, those were the first stations she turned to. Nada. When I asked her why a “supposed NEWS outlet” didn’t have breaking news like a plane crash on, the reason was, “it’s the weekend, they probably don’t have anyone in”. lol
IMHO, MSNBC never has any “news” on and no light is on.

Nope. She turned her back on due process and justice. Typical Demoncrat.

A reversing decision...clearly. The defense warned her and the State is being brought up on sanctions.

For those listening, Don West's comments about physically unable to proceed are grounds for reversal.

(He is a legal analyst on WESH TV in Orlando).

Also—Judge Tool ruled against allowing the jury to visit the scene of the incident. Now she is on the verge of disallowing the animation.

She said she’d rule at 8 in the morning, but the defense wasn’t done and they were trying to tell her they didn’t have time to prepare. She walked out.
