I’m not sure that the people who would be taking to the streets have any more time available on the weekend than during the week. Pretty much all they have is time...

Oakland, CA. Memphis, TN. Chicago, IL. These are where I expect trouble. Sad thing is I live in the middle one.

MOM: Waiting. Cannot eat. Cannot work. Proud of the work he has done. Good interview.

CNN says Crump coming up - I appreciated THAT warning. Talk about a wanna be...

That’s why it is a Cat1 lesser-included offense.

“but the most likely speculation is that the skittles is for purple drank, not the kid.”

And that is the biggest travesty of this trial. That the jurors were not allowed to be informed about “purple drank” and that the watermelon juice and skittles could have been potential ingredients for a concoction to get high on, per TM’s social media comments. They also were not allowed to be informed about his penchant for fighting and trying to get a gun.

TM’s past run-ins with the law, even though he wasn’t charged, are also pertinent but were not allowed as evidence. The FACT that he was caught with stolen jewelry that matched that stolen from a house close to his school was hidden from this jury. Information was hidden or deliberately withheld by the state and by Judge Nelson.

All of which are extremely pertinent facts that should have been brought into evidence. And all of this, in addition to the judge’s behavior and bias, equate to grounds for an automatic appeal, if a guilty verdict is rendered, IMO.

That’s their choice to follow in T’s footsteps without a thought of consequences that may affect them personally. Pack mentality is like that.

The sad thing is, in the trial I was in, we were pretty much taught how to make Meth as part of the testimony.

BDLR is nothing more than a buffoon who basically enjoys cursing loudly and repeatedly and telling everyone that GZ lies but that St. Trayvon was pure as the driven snow.

We found Memphis to be an angry, racially divided city 13 years ago. Guess nothing has changed..

RUSH is saying this will be an emotional verdict not facts or law.
