In other words....she does NOT have control of her court...
She may be giving away the appeal, but she wants him convicted first.
I step away from my desk for five minutes and they’re in recess.
What’s up?
Thanks. You gonna post on this thread today? Hope so
What? You don't know!? HLN "jury", Black Grievance Industry, any black caller to a political show, all together now:
*tap tap tap*
"He shouldna' got ou' da CAH!"
“...They dont mandate the Judge ask but they HIGHLY suggest that the Judge inquires.”
AFTER the defense has produced it’s list of witnesses, NOT UNTIL.
Probably riots outside already!!
That was a flagrant violation of the fifth amendment. Over the objections of his attorney she forced him to testify under oath. I’ve never seen that happen before.
Ok, lets say Z waived his rights to testify.........the next two witnesses simply blow up the case and now, Z needs to testify. Or, the defense team literally blows it. You think Deb and the state is going to let him change his mind?
Bill S...trying to cover himself when the blog blows up...Law favors Defense..and makes excuses for saying it
That's the way I see it.
I read the other day that Tracy had four children with four different women - including a recent one. Do you know if that is correct? Also, Sabrina lost custody of Travon as a toddler because she had a drug problem. Do you know if any of that is correct?
Yeh, I think WTF TV would be all over it!
Not sure that is right...I have seen several lawyers say that it was okay in Florida but I can’t say because I don’t know.
I’m just being open minded and trying to consider all possibilities.
Someone else said, “she’s just dumb as a box of rocks.”
Anything is possible, at this point. Maybe it’s all of the above.
Maybe she was told to throw the case to the prosecution, but leave wiggle room for mistrial or dismissal, and she is just going about it idiotically.
The thing that bothers me about this is that the prosecution has essentially changed their story as the trial has progressed. In the beginning, they insisted that Zimmerman was on top of Martin as the aggressor, beating him before shooting him. But once the defense team got the ball in their court, the story evolved into admitting that Zimmerman was on the bottom, but that Trayvon began to back off of him once he saw the gun, yet Zimmerman shot the retreating Martin anyway.
In either version, the prosecution has failed miserably in proving their case. So the fact that they are now requesting a new out by substituting the original charge with manslaughter or aggravated assault only further exposes the untenability of their case.
“It could also be that this Judge is as dumb as a bucket of marbles. She didnt hand out anything. She is doing everything possible to bias the case against the Defense.Any mistake(s) made in GZs favor were entirely accidental.”
I totally agree with your assessment.
can’t remember the name of the case that addresses it. That might provide guidance
Perhaps a wide perimeter with tight security has been established around the judicial building in anticipation of public reaction to the verdict.
