“The state carries the burden, but I’m going to prove to you that my client is innocent!”
~Mark O’Mara
The Case will easily make the Law Books.
Omara’s so likable.......unlike Bernie.
A finding of self defense bars civil suits.
Mine too! So aggravating because then you have to sit through a dang ad!
“Prayers up for George, his lawyers and the jurors to do the right thing.”
I’m hoping/praying that the jurors have truly been sequestered, receiving no information from the outside, i.e., no threats being sneaked in by Eric Holder, no talking heads’ blather, etc. If sequestering has been on the up-and-up, and they decide based on evidence, they’ll most likely do the right thing.
We’ve seen so much, that’s our mindset. I have to remind myself they haven’t watched Illiterate Ted on Greta, or other similar idiots.
MOM is speaking TO the jury instead of AT them.
Go to cnn, if you can.
MOM dealing with Reasonable Doubt — puts up a chart
NICE chart!! That will be very helpful.
“Ive seen that guy lead/precede George into the courtroom.”
I wonder if he is a paid bodyguard then. Or just a family friend.
Ditto. Plan B: Fox via XM satellite

He seems completely relaxed to me and speaking very directly and personally to the jury.
IMO he is connecting with his plain-spokenness.
In fact, I find it fascinating how much he is speaking their language.
“MOM is speaking TO the jury instead of AT them.”
Or instead of screeching at them.
Excellent photo montage, and so true in all regards.
Can you identify the silver-haired/bald man in front
of George’s parents? And is the woman next to him Shelly?
MOM told the same story today....AND it is a woman thing.
