There’s another hearing in his case Friday. Among the things the judge will then hear is an argument about whether to allow O’Mara to subpoena Trayvon’s school records and whether the public should know about future defense subpoenas and what evidence they produce.

She’ll also hear argument about whether prosecutors are entitled to George Zimmerman’s medical records.

“Murder trial”...No, more like a “self defense trial”. If it is proper and fitting for a man to defend himself rather than get killed.

the controversial self-defense law commonly known as “stand your ground”

Which is THE ONLY REASON this show trial is still going on: to repeal the SYG law, then the Castle Doctrine, then ultimately the 2nd Amendment.

Incrementalism, you understand...

Not guilty = riots.

Guilty = pillaging.

Either way, you lose.

Another case of the race card trumping justice and common sense.

The trial will never take place.

Once the election is over, the prosecutor will quietly drop the charges.

Maybe the hearing would be according to the “stand your ground” law; I don’t know how that works exactly. I’d just like to point out for the umpteenth time that Zimmmerman will not use a stand your ground defense. That is a red herring. You have no ability to retreat, let alone a duty to retreat, if you shoot from the ground.

The MSM STILL so wants to badmouth this “controversial” law that they have to name it third, after “murder” and “unarmed,” in their little stories.

After the hearing, Zimmerman's defense tweeted he will likely seek a hearing under the controversial self-defense law commonly known as “stand your ground” in the months leading up to trial.

The "self-defense immunity hearing [is] likely to be requested for April or May," the tweet said.

Hold on a second. Is a 'self-defense immunity hearing' the same as a 'stand your ground hearing'?

This dead cat will never get to the final argument or verdict stage.

It’s so dead, an acquittal, dismissal or mistrial is already a certainty.

We’re just saving face and posturing now. At taxpayer expense.
