Day 15 (Week #3) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | June 28, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 06/28/2013 5:14:39 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

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 powerfully–almost humiliatingly–co-opted by the defense, and the third provided testimony entirely consistent with the defense’s theory of lawful self-defense. (continue reading)

According to a talking head on MSNBC today she’s a genius, speaking 3 languages by age 5 - no one knows what those languages ARE!, but she is evidently fluent.


Jive, Hip Hop, and Ebonics..... :):)

All delivered in a mumbling manner to demonstrate her mastery...

Yes but notice their soft serve is all vanilla, no chocolate to be found. Clearly they are racist.


Was in the Atlanta airport and the young woman who was serving up the soft serve was very snippy with the customers. She happened to be black.

Was so tempted to order an “Obama” and see if she could figure it out

( half vanilla/half chocolate) If she gave me any lip I would have said.

Well that’s what he is, and you should be proud I’d like to name your ice cream after him

My daughter talked me out of it, but enjoyed the mental picture of what the reaction might have been.

his MMA instructor said he would never put Zimmerman into a ring. He plays at this stuff, he’s not a contender.


I can catch a football, and hit a baseball batting right or left handed.

Does that make me ready for the NFL or MLB. No way.

Just because someone does something doesn’t make them pro level as may be inferred by his have taken MMA training in any form

I love Alec is such a good liberal but behind the scenes when he gets pissed he starts mouthing off with the gay and racial slurs. Typical libtard.


But he’s one of elite, so he won’t be railroaded like Paula Dean.

How is it intent or gross negligence to have a bullet in the chamber of your gun that you have permit to carry? Why would you carry a gun without it having at least one bullet? How is that showing intent?
These libtards don’t understand anything about gun ownership, right to carry laws apparently, and hate the idea of defending yourself instead especially with a gun.

In the world of many of the commenters anti-Zimmerman, Zimmerman became the aggressor by simply following or verbally confronting Martin. They believe that this was the initial act of aggression, and that Martin was then allowed to physically “defend himself” from this “stalker”.

The differences seem to be based on different rules of conflict in societies and culture. Being yelled at, stalked, or harassed is not a license for physical aggression in my world, but it appears to be in Martins and his defenders.


Also the fact that more and more “ in your face” or in Jentels lingo “ in your grill” is deemed to be assault.

The concept of “ disrespect” and “ assaulted” have shifted to the touchy feely political correctness of today , where “ words always hurt me” and I can do whatever I want to get back at you.

They just want Zimmerman to hang for something. This case is a farce brought to you by the libtards and their pet race hustlers.

Predicting riots in ALL major cities...


Lived through the Philadelphia threats /rioting in the 60’s.

Will always remember Frank Rizzo letting the rioters know that he would have police stationed at strategic points authorized to use force to protect property and law abiding citizens.

Affect, it kept things to minor occurrences.

Love him, or hate him, Frank protected the majority and let the minority know there would be consequences for their actions.

I cannot cite source, but I heard a commentator speak to the position of TM’s hands - something about GZ possibly had moved TM’s arms after he had had shot him.

Is this anything?

Chump and company knew what she looked like. That’s why they they did the interview by phone — so no one else could see her. That’s why they kept her name out of the press. That’s why they wouldn’t give her name or address to the defense or anyone else. They weren’t surprised. And those that are are just acting surprised.

That’s what puppy love looks like???? Please. And as far as her knowing TM from kindergarten — truth is she supposedly had only connected with him 3 weeks before his death. And Martin spending 400 minutes with this mumbler???? Nope.

I still don’t believe she was on the phone with him but as long as she wants to take the fall for someone else then let her, but I suspect that before that happens she will scream and blow the whistle. Watch her eyes as she testifies — who is she looking at in the courtroom for approval?????

Many hispanics self-identify as “white.”

If they are of Spanish decent, they are Caucasian. Most Mexicans and other brown skinned "hispanics" are full-blood, or mixed-race American Indians.

She is accustomed to being manipulated and doing her share of manipulations. Her passive resistant behavior and lying to accomodate the expectations of those who question her are both characteristic of living in a home with an abuser. With that in mind she would always be looking to the controller even in life to see how she should react to avoid their displeasure

As I stated last evening for her to honestly face the experience her support group would have to be stronger then the support/encouragement she is getting to continue her current survival/coping mechonism.

It is unlikely she will ever get that type of support More then likely her future will be filled with some type of abuse , incarceration, or early death

She has likely been incarcerated before in juvenile detention where they have “areas” — such as the “area” where Trayvon Martin went into and met her.

400 minutes on phone. 390 could probably be classified as phone sex. Remember her comments about their text

The rape comment. The creepy az cracker ( gay male) she could share. Not about to admit the other part on the stand.

Is that what the “get out of jail” comment was about? Hope Mom picks up on that!

Several comments she made indicated she had either done some introspective work herself or with a professional. If she was in juvenile detention that would explain it. Group therapy, individual or family groups are standard

Her combativeness on the stand is clear indication of someone who has either been in the juvenile detention system or still is. She knows how to answer questions in an unresponsive way.

George did move TM’s hands. Everyone should watch the ‘reinactment’ that was filmed on 2/27 of George walking through exactly what happened. He thought TM was alive and he didn’t hit him with a bullet. GZ jumped on his back and stretched his arms out because he felt that TM had something in his hands when he was beating GZ in the face.

If you get a chance to listen to John’s testimony see if you can tell how long it would have been from the time he heard the noise outside his window to the time when he hears the shot.

“She has likely been incarcerated before in juvenile detention where they have “areas” — such as the “area” where Trayvon Martin went into and met her.”

“I liked the part about...”Yeah, Trayvon and I meet and hang out...you know, ride bikes.”

I didn’t believe that part for one minute.

Ride bikes when???? She said that they had only been talking and stuff for three weeks before his death — 3 weeks.

Is that because that is all the phone records that the state could falsify???
