The defense showed the jury concrete and said the state’s claims it’s not a weapon and all he had was skittles is disgusting.
He donated $100 for this judges election.
Judges usually extort money from lawyers to fund elections.
it discourages competition.
Good closing by MOM. Calm for the most part, keeping the attention of the jury, according to tweets from those in the courtroom. Thank you, God; please be with the jury as well.
...”And they don’t seem to be living...Until he bites ya, and they roll over white...” Guy is a shark of the worst sort.
“I live in Atlanta. Black folks are all fired up and angry today. They are ready to burst. Believe this everyone and please be careful and vigilant. There will be blood.”
I will be going out to the store after the verdict is read. I live in an area that is approximately half caucasian. I’ll be ready for whatever might occur. That’s all I’m going to say about that....lol.
But thanks for your concern and yes, everyone needs to stay vigilante and alert.
No, I don’t think they showed his hands....just from like the chest up...so jury didn’t see the gang sign
Well.....GZ is in the hands of the jury and there is no way he could have been better represented, no way. That includes the fire from Don West, a consummate warrior and defender of his clients rights. They were brilliant together.
LMAO at your post. hahahaha!!!!!
It is my understanding that basic deliberations can be relatively short, say 20-30 minutes. All of the formalities though in a big trial can take considerably more.
I’m very conscience of it too....I go into bad neighborhood every morning to feed some homeless kitties......has shootings now and then......
I am not an attorney but I watch a lot of CourtTV reruns.
My prayer group focused our prayers on the jury, that the Holy Spirit guides them to see and hear the truth, and to consider the absolute truth when making their final decision.
I’ve prayed for George and his family over and over.
This case just breaks my heart.
darn, but at least they got a pic in of the 17 yr old Saint, eh? Not to mention the brilliance of the cutouts.

Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump does not look happy. #Zimmermanon9
The reading of the charges (did I hear 27 pages ?) could be longer than the jury takes to acquit
Impossible. THat would mean the State had nuts. If the state had had nuts, they would have NEVER brought this trial forward, and the GOV/AG would have removed Corey from this spectacle.
Agree, I would want them on my team, God forbid I should ever need them.
