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.

I can’t believe that I am still listening to this
“Angry Trayvon” APP game.

Think the Anthony case
Same here. Need to get dad some supper. But it’s almost too hot here to eat
BM 1721
So Manslaughter isn’t an option?
>> The one from Chicago.
I wasn’t going to say it, but that was the one I had in mind too.
Pray for all of them. Pray that a leader or two emerges with the persuasive skills to turn back any stubborn holdouts.
I feel confident that the LORD Who loves justice and righteousness will answer our prayers.
Do you have an opinion on the admissibility of this computer animation?
I’m going out on a limb and say the judge let’s this animation be shown to the jury, especially after listening to MOM’s excellent presentation,....but I could be wrong.
Judge asks a good question:
Guy heard gunshot while dialing 911.
That should be connected to Lauer 911 call.
>> But it’s almost too hot here to eat
Clever try at an excuse! STOP CLICKING REFRESH! GO FEED YOUR OL’ MAN!!! :-)
You better relish every moment, but it’ll be over soon.;-)
From what I've read, a jury is supposed to receive instruction for manslaughter if the evidence would be consistent with such a verdict. From my understanding, that would essentially require finding that GZ pulled the trigger recklessly but without intending to shoot TM. I have seen no evidence by either side to support such a claim; if the defense were to stipulate that GZ was trying to aim at TM when he pulled the trigger, and state that it did not want the jury to be offered manslaughter as an option, I would see no basis on which Judge Nelson could a find a manslaughter verdict to be consistent with the evidence.
It’s not “evidence”. It’s “demonstrative evidence.”
Big difference.
I’m having a hamburger with that relish right now
“because” not “but”...
Judge inquires as to whether he used Good’s 911 call to synch up with Lauer’s call.
Mumbling answer is incomprehensible to me. MOM then suggests that if Good’s call can be precisely timed, then moving Lauer’s soundtrack to incorporate the time from Good’s call.
Judge is reading back her notes of Goods testimony.
Sounds like she may want to admit this.
Still waiting for justice and answers!
The key is when the screaming started not the shot.
Was there screaming before the Lauer 911 call connected.
