closing arguments are not the real definitive place you win your case.

Generally the pre-trial motions, jury instructions, and PHYSICAL testimony is where the action is going to matter.

shutting down the faux rebuttal testimony was good.

shutting out the man 3 was good.

the judge permissivly allowing manslaughter is bad.

keeping crump out of courtroom was good.

Anyone hearing opinions around the watercooler?

My grain of salt from someone who gets around a big diverse city every day: Whites (other than FReeper types) - not really following or caring; Latinos (I mingle with a LOT personally and professionally) - couldn't care less about Zimmerman and the trial; Blacks - fired up.

Oh. I did not know filing an immediate appeal would lead to a mistrial. If that is so, then imaginably you are correct.

Most people in the audience are watching the jurors for reactions to Bernie —

Juror 5 smirked a bit at BDLR saying #TrayvonMartin was unarmed, unless you consider Skittles and drink ...

Uh oh, I 'm not sure that's a good thing.

That’s what I think, bad news for defense.

Like...Unarmed?? “Yeh right...he broke his nose and bashed his head”. His friggin’ “fight experience” was his weapon. Don’t forget...he circled his car and reported a “pussy-ass cracker”....a wimp....

I picked her up and massaged her lower jaw muscles to calm her down. Works like a charm.

Short answer: The “judge,” biased as she is, did not allow the Murder 3 w/ Child Abuse charge to be included.

Bruce at WFTV:
Based on what we have seen, this jury will be ready to deliberate as soon as they can, and won’t stop until the judge makes them take a break.

LOL is that what they said, she is Haitian..WOW thats a slap in the face to Haitian people, Rachael is no Haitian, she is just an idiot..in fact my theory is that she provoked Trayvon into going after Zimmerman, I dont think it was Trayvon who called Zimmerman a “Creepy ass cracker” I think it was Rachael, that is why she didnt go see Trayvon in the hospital or go to his funeral, she knows its her fault he’s dead
