Although O’Mara tried to turn today’s proceedings into a mini-trial, it was just supposed to be a bond hearing.
Well part of the bond determination process is the strength of the case of the prosecution, and all along the judge has been saying how strong the case is against GZ. So today MoM presented evidence to show how weak the state's case really is, and thus why bond should be minimal.
I suppose the testimony of the witnesses will happen at the actual trial.
Why wait. Start putting things into the court record right now if you got them. Show how strong the state's case is -- if you have a case.
Today MoM entered into the court record the testimony of the EMT, GZ's statements, the statements of 3 witnesses, the testimony of GZ's father, a 911 tape and the testimony of a forensic accountant regarding the Paypal money, and dared BDLR to call witnesses to counter their testimony.
Sybrina was right there in court with Tracy and he didn't call them even though they are half his case, and he alluded to DeeDee but she will never take the witness stand because MoM will ask her about TM's drug use and she will sing like a bird.
What today showed is that all the state has is the tired old mantra "GZ lied" without any evidence that he lied. In a moment of frustration BDLR blurted out their theory: "he profiled him, chased him down, and shot him". Great BDLR, if you believe that then present your evidence for your imaginative speculation. Let's see it. There is none. He knows it and the judge knows it and Team Skittles know it. It was written all over their faces today.
MoM presented enough evidence today that a reasonable judge would dismiss all charges and send everybody home and save all parties a lot of time and money.
Right now he's having a John Roberts crisis of conscience, and so is anyone who watched this hearing today with any kind of rational mind.
