Today, July 11th, is DAY #23 (of 5th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.
Yesterday the defense rested its case. A legal analysis via Professor Jacobson HERE.
From my perspective the entire case ended, as expected, early in the day yesterday when Judge Nelson gave George Zimmerman his personal Platinum Express DCA Acquittal Card. The ruling, and more importantly the legal determination she used on the ruling, regarding the Trayvon Martin phone evidence was an immediate Nuclear DCA option. Nelson essentially ruled against admissibility based on ”authentication”. She could have kept it out under other legal reasoning, but no, she chose the one without the slightest chance of being upheld by a District Court of Appeals. IMHO this was intentional and aligns itself with the way she has ruled during the pre-trial discovery phase, and during the case itself. She’s a rigid ideologue, but she’s not stupid – this was intentional.
By ruling the phone records (texts and pics from Trayvon) cannot be “authenticated” to have originated by the specific personage of Trayvon Martin just gave the dismissal of the case to George Zimmerman with a bow on it.
As it was carefully explained to me, the phone is like a bucket. The data inside the phone is like marbles in a bucket. Some marbles from calls, others from pictures, others from texts, etc. The State brought the bucket into court – and validated the bucket contents with their own witness from the phone company – Both the State and the defense then began arguing their case around the phone call marbles in the bucket – Primarily with Rachel Jeantel. But no-one challenged the bucket itself. The State authenticated the bucket and the content of the bucket during the introduction.
The defense picks up the same bucket the state hands them, and now begins to use the contents – texts and pictures – and then Nelson rules the bucket itself cannot be authenticated. It doesn’t work that way.
If the state authenticates evidence, it cannot be divided and only authentic when the state holds it, but not the defense. Flawed logic – ABSOLUTELY positioned to give such a prejudicial outcome, the appeal would result in dismissal, not retrial. Nelson gave the case away to George Zimmerman.
She could have ruled on relevance, admissibility, or other factors – but she chose the one destined to fail, “authentication”. She gave it away.
In other news, people are catching on to the Eric Holder, Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Community Relations Service – being the actual puppeteers behind the entire construct of the false case. To them we say “welcome to the party pal“.
flicked around the tube...cnn and msnbc are singin Bernie’s prasies most on Fox too.........
IOC....that was nice of him to write you...
Try putting yourself in his shoes.
It's a nationally televised case of importance all the way up to the Caliphate Temple(I mean White House), and he has ABSOLUTELY NO CASE.
I almost feel sorry for him.
once upon a time jurrors were not allowed to make notes!
the prosecutors objected to notes I believe.
I always ask people to tell me what crime George Zimmerman committed right up until the moment before he fired his pistol. The only answer I ever get is “stalking”, to which I show them the Florida statute, which is not what they think it is.
They then have no response, because all this crap about “pursuing” and “stalking” and “hunting down” Holder’s No Limit T-Dawg is utter BS.
RUHBKTLMAO = rolling under head bashing killer trees LMAO
Hahahaha...I think I’m so clever...what did yours mean?
will the not guilty stand on 2nd degree if they can only.agree on that one or is it thrown out since they couldnt.agree on all his charges.
“If you think Bozo the Clown likes to cuss over and over and over again, stayed tuned for the dwarf Guy. First words out of his mouth at the trial was these ***** punks aways get away with this. He will start the State’s rebuttal of MoM’s close with the same cussing and end it an hour later by looking straight at the jury and cussing again.”
I have to admit, I have a few choice words to describe the persecution and the judge, myself. ;)
Yes, that is sweet. And it means so much more, knowing he can actually read the note he wrote. ; )
I see you guys have been playing “feed the troll” while I was napping...lol.
Can I play too?
I hope all of you in Florida are preparing for any riots. Be aware of the verdict when it comes. Make your plans to stay safe. Take care.
talking head
high level voice
coaches indicate dont yell like Bernie did
decibel meter - much lower tomorrow with MOM
I'm not leaving my house on verdict day and the next day. I don't think there will be group violence here at all, but one won't know when an individual black decides to take out a white person to even the score of one black dead. I think this will happen across the country no matter the verdict.
That was the most pathetic closing I have ever witnessed. I’m predicting a NOT GUILTY by 8 p.m. tomorrow.
She knows you won’t complain, and she also knows you are afraid she will. She’s a thug just like Obastard and Tradmark.
I think I said this before, but the riots are planned and coming. This trial is only to disguise the reason for the riots.
Now I have to carry my battery powered sawall in addition to my sidearm and a couple of extra mags ... I refuse to take my lawnmower though
rolling on wet grass bumping tree hitting concrete f ing dummy laughing my a$$ off. I think I’m clever too, but actually the very image cracks me up.
I’m in Arizona...it’s flatter’n milk on a plate...we can see em comin for miles away
