That’s great the Beasley firm has deep pockets. But will Zimmerman wait it out? I’ve read he and his wife have money problems.
Another problem with waiting it out is that the law firm reaps most of the money. Most of Richard Jewell’s payout went to the lawyers, and that was with a settlement.
Sure, we want Zimmerman to financially decimate these media whores, but little guys like Zimmerman need the money especially with his mounting legal fees.
That is what makes this calculatingly interesting.
Usually the civil trial takes place after the criminal trial, but in this case they are running concurrently.
The longer the criminal trial goes, the higher will be the demands against NBC and they know it.
Meanwhile the longer the trial goes the more discovery takes place under the subpoena power of the state that can be sifted into the civil action.
It’s a win win for Zimmerman’s side and a lose lose for the state and NBC.
The state thought that it could stall and drag this thing out and bankrupt GZ into a plea deal, but with that big NBC bank waiting at the end of the rainbow that they will eventually tap into, what’s to lose???
Especially when the best parts are coming up — the depositions of Crump, Tracey, Sybrina, DeeDee — that will give them more discovery to use against NBC.
I want much more than a 10% punishment.
