Also during trial lawyers go after each other like they hate each other, then as soon as it is all over with they are patting each other on the back and going out for drinks together.
where are those desensitization targets used to train law enforcement on how to pull the trigger on a kid?
No, this trial is the result of race relations already being set back by this Administration. If they can get away with voter intimidation in Philadelphia, they can get away with anything.
>>>It seems unconstitutional to allow the jury to vote on a different crime than what was specified in the charges that were filed by the DA. The defense gears its arguments to ThOSE charges, and not to other hypothetical charges. So allowing the jury to convict on some other crime denies the defendant a proper defense.<<<
Agree completely...That’s the outrageous part in a nutshell.
But he did know Trayvon was old enough to be out after dark, on a rainy night, with no adult supervision.
Maybe a 'minor' but certainly not a 'child'.
Precisely. It’s a true miscarriage of justice. It’s the type of thing that makes you want to drop your whole life, go to law school and become a defense attorney.
It’s also why I think West argued that verdict form should include not guilty at the top of the form and not some vague promise from the judge that it will be included somewhere on the page.
She doesn't want to work. This was just her last shot at "fame".
My suggestion is a bobble head doll that also spins around with a black robe and a white stain.
I would think so. The judge saying to the defense “explain it to the jury” is bull crap. The instructions are the most confusing part of a trial and most laymen don’t quit get what intent means in a legal manner. The state has NO case, and the judge is helping them get a conviction with throwing as many charges against Zimmerman as possible knowing damn well how juries operate. They will convict of something if there are enough charges, especially six women who want to appease the mob or punish GZ for something because the FEEL bad for TM’s parents.
Trust me GZ is going down. Noway there is a full acquittal now.
They NOW want to charge him with Negligible Child Abuse.
This child abuse outrage...opens the floodgates for “children” to do violence as they please. Define “child!!”
Thank you!
We most certainly will. Total sandbag job and stacking the deck. Oh let’s see he’s not guilty of Murder 2, so let’s go with manslaughter and 3rd degree murder. Disgusting.
as I posted here earlier Z will also be charged with Ted Kennedy’s continued sobriety
not parole ... bond /bail
This trial is like a 120th trimester abortion.
LOL...there’s probably an environmental charge for abuse of those poor head bashing trees, too.
I have read those exist and cops train with them, but if a kid has a weapon pointed at you, that person is no longer a kid - he is a deadly attacker. A gun magically changes any person of any age into a deadly attacker. A bullet from a so called kid can kill you just like a bullet from a military man.
Yes. ....and have become a standardized product of courtroom procedures.
So.... why this major attempt by the Judge, the State , and Defense to CHANGE the JURY INSTRUCTIONS ?
(kind of a rhetorical question, I think we all know why)
He described him as "late teens" to the police dispatcher.
