Day 16 (Week #4) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 1, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 07/01/2013 5:17:35 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

Today, July 1st, is DAY #16 (of 4th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.

Last week the prosecution feebly presented the first series of witnesses against George Zimmerman. However, as most observers would note, the witnesses called by the state have so far been more beneficial for the Zimmerman Self-Defense position.

Certainly, though after going back and reading what the step mama had to say BEFORE this case blew up, I have no doubts about her as well; other than the fact that yes, she was a mother to him and was consistent.

Twitter astroturf. You can see the same thing on the comment section of Orlando Sentinel.

BINGO! Usually the roles are reversed, and it’s usually the defense bogging down and trying to confuse and distract with a million and one details that are less than relevant from the real evidence. While typically the prosecution tries to keep the jury focused on the concrete facts and the law.

Agreed. Anyone who has spent any amount of time on twitter would recognize this to be true.

The only value I’ve ever found in twitter as during Rand’s filibuster and a couple other non-story events.

For this trial, it is flooded by idiots.

If they produce convincing evidence, I will listen to it. As of now, my opinion remains that it is Rachel Jeantel.

Dead wrong.

Look up his family tree.

He is a Native American/ Black African/ Caucasian mixed race person. Never let the left get away with trying to excise Zimmerman’s Black ancestry from the mix. Make them own the full extent of their lynch mob.

The best thing that Bernie has so far is that tape.

O’Mara has to fix it with this witness and he is trying to do so right now.

He keeps getting his hands tied by the Judge but he is working on it.

Meant to say: I have my doubts about her now.

She stated that her and daddy broke up days before this happened, which I believe is untrue.
She also commented that they were just trying to get ‘justice for trayvon’ - not sure much more about her but somehow they decided she was a non-factor.

Do you really NOT recognize that tape Helps the Prosecutor’s case UNTIL O’Mara can fix it.

The legal analyst for Orlando’s Channel 9 thinks the state made a huge mistake in introducing the various statements/interviews of GZ in the way they did.He said that now GZ is on the record with a plausible claim of self defense without needing to take the stand.

Had they not introduced it the defense could have asked about their existence and made it clear to the jury that the prosecution was withholding evidence.

This situation can't be avoided when trying to railroad an innocent man.

MOM asking if GZ seemed cavalier. Serino says he was surprised and concerned to hear GZ say that he had class the next day. MOM using “flat affect” to describe GZ demeanor.

Not sure, I missed it as well as I am NOT focused on food right now! I believe it has nothing to do with the trial.

Did he say trauma from fearing for his life? If he did that is big IMO.

You got it. I seriously believe that tape did NOT help the prosecution. I believe it showed that Z did NOT change his story, remained calm and did not crack under the pathetic attempts to trip him up. But if you believe what the twitter peeps are saying, maybe you can enlighten me to what I missed.
