If the prosecutor believed the story of This witness’ testimony, then he would be ethically forced to request that the charges be dismissed. If he believed this witness was not going to tell the truth, he could be charged with suborning perjury for calling him to the stand. You can’t call a witness to the stand knowing they are going to tell a lie. Neither can you bring charges and prosecute a case which you honestly believe the defendant is not guilty of.
Either baldy was surprised by this testimony today, or he is another Nifong. I think both. This witness established that George Zimmerman was being visciously attacked when the shot was fired.
Regardless of any other circumstance this proves beyond any doubt that Zimmerman is not guilty.
The only case the prosecution has is that the beating was not that bad and Z overreacted by shooting. I think that is a bs argument and I would offer to give Bernie that beating if he thinks it is no big deal.
I see your point.
On another matter entirely — you being a lawyer and all — are you able to address the question of whether or not a manslaughter charge is an option in this trial? Thx.
