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.

Re; judges instructions to jury, does she really think they won’t discuss the case, watch on TV, research on pc etc?
Honest question. Not knowledgeable on trials.

Whatcha think UC? Is the animation in or out? I am thinking out. And I am thinking it may be reversible.

Of course, if the animation showed a tree attacking, the Prosecution would be alright with it.

This witness should be clear as to what the animation seeks to present. He will always be faced with opposition challenging “did you include every single fact to make it exactly correct?”

It is a concept based upon the information provided primarily by the contracting team of attorneys.

It will never be an exact reproduction of reality...even live video can be deceiving to the viewer.

He needs to be comfortable with this, and convey this to the judge/jury as required.

What it purports to represent to too loose if it is run as an animation. I believe MOM has conceded that. I think he will settle for getting maybe some stills admitted.

I am doubting if that will happen

If this was fictional CSI, of course the prosecution would be allowed to show animation.

LOL.

Pros has done a good job casting doubt in my mind. The witness needs a lot of coaching up.

So it might be on the YOUTUBE channel where they have the segments of the trial and testimony.

I’ve checked some of them, and so far no luck. They cut off much of the non-testimony parts on those Youtube videos.

I think she did especially well id'ing GZ's voice in that she was the only witness to actually describe his voice. She said it is a "light, male voice". If the jurors think about that and compare the high -pitched cries for help to GZ's soft-spoken voice on the videos, it is powerful.
