GZ is the Key witness and did not testify!

Of course he testified. He gave a half dozen statements to the police. They are all in evidence.

Everything you say can be used against you and likewise everything you say can be used in your favor.

“...likewise everything you say can be used in your favor.”

That is 100% untrue.

...everything you say can be used in your favor.

Only if the prosecutor is a moron.

An attorney may in general only ask someone about something another person said if the person being asked about will be available to the opposing party for cross-examination. For the defense to introduce testimony about things GZ said, it would have to agree to let the prosecution subject GZ to cross-examination by the prosecution. Conversely, the fact that the prosecution asks people what GZ said would mean the defense had the right to call GZ; since the defense already has the right to call GZ, however, the latter point doesn't really matter.
