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)

Maybe this was asked before, but is it 2nd degree murder or nothing?

WFTV keeps saying all the witnesses are proving GZ’s injuries are not life threatening and so do not justify deadly force. Well....what about Trayvon reaching for Zimmerman’s gun????

So as I sit here, shaking my head over this non-case, this is what happened in our Congress on Tuesday. Wth is this??

...The Democrat at the heart of the successful filibuster of a Texas bill to ban abortion after the 20-week pregnancy mark proved an above and beyond dedication to beating back the measure — she even wore a catheter.

Sen. Wendy Davis, 50, donned running shoes, a back brace and a urinary catheter in the walk up to her Tuesday filibuster that ultimately spanned 11 hours....

You have to be some kind of SICKO to pull a stunt like that.
This is the brightest among us, to lead us? Where do these freaks get dug up from??

Do t know. But WESH legal minds are saying this is huge. No evidence of depraved mind which must be present for 2nd degree. Saying it is grounds for dismissal.

This prosecutor is actually trying to introduce an entire medical record into evidence. Can you imagine what the media (and who knows else) will do with that????

O’Mara apparently wants it limited to the info about the event in question, the same as testimony from the physician’s assistant.

I can’t imagine the judge won’t see this O’Mara’s way. Absolutely no reason everyone should see what’s in GZ’s medical record.

Nor can I imagine an honest prosecutor trying to do this.

WFTV is delusional. They just said sabrina wasn’t there today, she was. They are stumbling around.

I forgot to put a finish on that:

Unless they feel threatened by the race baiters and consequently do the wrong thing.

It's pretty clear to me seeing the testimony that our jury would have taken less than ten minutes to acquit. Sadly, it's (a ten minute not guilty verdict) what would have happened if Zimmerman was black and the prosecutor moved forward to convict him.

The flaw in your argument is that jury will be instructed that it cannot convict on lesser charges.

That is an assumption on your part, and one not shared over at Legal Insurrection. He is a Florida lawyer, and has stated that the Murder 2 charge included lesser included charges of manslaughter.

Just heard that they are on witness number 22, of a list of OVER 200! Are they for real??

LOL, they’re not “life-threatening” because GZ didn’t let him finish.

I am wrong, or is this one of the talking points liberals have been using a lot “Trayvon had no injuries to his knuckles! ?

Are Angela Corey and this judge related?

Is it just me or does this lovely judge look a tad bit ‘butch’ shall we say?

IF she lets Z’s entire medical history in, can defense bring in any of T’s history? Why is this even a discussion? Oh nevermind, I already know the answer.
