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.

Thought his main purpose was to animate the time line

I think it is common procedure to poll each of the jurors for their decision.

How much of this trial has followed 'common procedure' ?

If the animation was made and a witnnes changed testimoney due to any reason as maybe witness fear of perjury that portion of the animation may change the entire animation!
His animation has to be based on testimony not a meeting with Attorneys or proported evidence. With out testimony or true evidence it’s all fiction! Why show the jury fiction!
The defense should withdraw!

"$400/hr — not a complicated case forensically"

Wonder what O'Mara and West make/hour.

Actually, I pretty much don't want to know!

One thing that is unsual in this case. Neither Prosecution or Defense has no known friends or associates of TM.

Seems that the School Principal would be a credible 'character witness'. Which is why the Prosecution didn't want him anywhere near the trial.

Yes. But, it’s using Good and Lauer calls plus GZ reenactment and testimony to try and create a merged time line.

Exact times are not on record as to when Good saw what he saw.

Every one of his questions is done in an accusatory or gotcha tone. He is very unprofessional and confrontational. He thinks that is an attribute, it isn’t.

I think the words that were said came out funny, but I think it was clear that the jury wanted to “go on”, not “go home”.

I couldn't hear the jury very well. Sounded like 'go'.

I do know exactly what the Judge said.

She said, "The jury wants to go..."(looks at BDLR) then says,"stay... for the next witness."

Even if they didn't say GO, she did.

Well, if they bring a principal or teacher in as character witness they are going to have to admit he was on school suspension.

Mark could care less whether it gets in or not. It changes nothing. It's a tool. It's for the prosecution to see and try to twist.

Just like they couldn't twist the angle of the shirt and bullet entry, they can't twist this.

I’m done for the day too.

This witness should have been prepared for this type of challenge.

He wasn’t.

>> looks at BDLR

I thought she looked over at the jury, while they were answering.

I remember it seemed comical at the time, but I really believe that she went with their wishes, namely, to proceed with the trial.
