Zimmerman Trial Update: State's Attempted Railroading Goes Off the Rails

I don’t have a ping list, never did learn to program a VCR either.

Little thug also had THC in his system.

And if that's all he had in his system, I'd say that was proof he didn't attack Zimmerman. I've never seen anyone high on pot attack anyone else.

NOW.... in black culture, they smoke what is called 'wet'.

It's a marijuana joint soaked with PCP.

IF that is what he had smoked, his violent attack makes complete sense.

Just google DRUG WET and that's the first thing you see. Violent attacks by those on 'wet'.

My pleasure, Cajun.

Florida Judges are elected officials. Denial of a directed acquittal was a CYA moment from the bench.

Since first hearing the name George Zimmerman, and all throughout the pre-trial hype and now through my daily fixation with the day to day trial I have not found one reason I would not let George babysit my kids.

thanks so much for drafting and posting. ignore the riff raff that have to attack people for posting things instead of making themselves the least bit valuable at this site themselves.

[IChing]

You got that right. Nelson won re-election unopposed last time around, as did state’s attorney Angela Corey 5 days after filing the malicious and false charging affidavit.

[Mr. K]

I can’t believe even the prosecution in this case is not saying “We would like to drop the charges” at this point

Ping lists are easy.

Just create a text file, in some word processing program or simple text editor.

When a poster wants to be on the PING LIST, just cut and paste their SCREENNAME into whatever text file you started.

Put a semicolon between each username. You can use commas instead, but then you can't leave any 'blanks' in their name. So stick to semicolons.

When you create a new thread, after you post it, click on any of the posts (yours will be number 1, that's easiest to use), and for the TO: field, simply go back to the text file you made and saved, and CUT the string of SCREENNAMES and then PASTE them into the TO: FIELD. That's all there is to it.

Trayvon’s trip to the store to get “candy” and iced tea are being portrayed as an innocent outing, befitting the innocent little kid he’s been made out to be....when in reality, it is more likely the Skittles and fruity iced tea were ingredients to mix up some “drank” as it is called......here’s a recipe and there is more to be found if you Google “purple drank”.....

Do you know if the toxicology report includes info about other substances, like PCP, hydrocodone, Robotussin, etc.? If they failed to test him for something like maybe the ingredients in purple drank, can the defense bring that up?

What the jury may or may not know is that Martin was a strapping, athletically-conditioned high school football player who had an ardent lust for fighting, even texting to a friend that he wanted a rematch with one opponent he’d already beaten because the guy “didn’t bleed enough for me, only his nose.”

I hadn’t seen this before. This should be before the jury in the interest of justice.

Martin had a history of violence, to the best of my knowledge Zimmerman does not.

[Inwoodian]

Who would he sue? Martin’s family? The State DA? No way.

[UCANSEE2]

I have not found one reason I would not let George babysit my kids.

I think he's been punished enough already, don't you ?

” and his way of ‘wording’ his suspicion was admirable”

it was passive aggressive at best.

[BykrBayb]

WAIT! Don’t cut and paste. Copy and paste. If you cut, your original list is deleted.

You can save your list pretty much anywhere. Freepmail it to yourself. Email it to yourself. Save it to a file on your hard drive.

[humblegunner]

So make like a bee and buzz off.

No thanks.

Self promotion and blogpimping are two sides of the same coin.

You’re just jealous because Doug Giles was noted as a “hot conservative new media superman” by Politichicks and you weren’t:

If you want in-depth coverage go to Legal Insurrection ... the author of a book on the law of self defense, Andrew Branca, is covering the trial live via twitter and two summaries (mid- and end-of-day) daily. That is the best coverage I’ve seen on the web!

I think I know exactly what you know about the TOX report.

Positive for pot, but other substances either weren't tested for, or the results have not been made public.

The report is probably available somewhere on the internet, but I haven't seen it yet.

As for your last question, It would be my opinion that they can't bring up something that wasn't tested for. To ask 'why' it wasn't tested for, the defense would likely get shut down by the judge. Legally and reasonably.

Look at it this way. We can't go back in time and do something we now think should have been done. Ergo, the opportunity was lost, and there is no solution to arguing about why.

Again, it's all dependent on what is actually in the TOX report anyway. Maybe it shows more than we think, or know about.
