Day 16 (Week #4) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 1, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 07/01/2013 5:17:35 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

Today, July 1st, is DAY #16 (of 4th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.

Last week the prosecution feebly presented the first series of witnesses against George Zimmerman. However, as most observers would note, the witnesses called by the state have so far been more beneficial for the Zimmerman Self-Defense position.

you’re welcome Iching. I donate a lot of money to FR and will probably hold off now based on seeing what I’m seeing other posters do/say. This JeanS and humblegunner, as examples, attacking people because of some blog post is ridiculous.

How can FR ever expect new members to come here AND DONATE if they get run off by others???

ok, I have one question I am confused about.

I thought Zimmerman’s parents weren’t allowed in the courtroom because they are going to testify.

The CNN (I know, I KNOW...) commentator just said TM parent’s might testify.

Then why are they allowed in??

Or do I have this all wrong....?

Might be under the theory of rebuttal. Different jurisdictions have different rules regarding that.

Yikes, he didn’t even attempt? That might be a problem? Course he said it was a waste of time because it’s unreliable....but I definetely seeing State bring that comment up when the time comes.

There are different laws and rules for the victim’s family vs. for the defendent’s family re: being allowed to sit in the courtroom. I have no idea what the “reasoning” behind the rule is though. Probably something that came about as a result of a victim’s rights law passed. Maybe one of the legal experts here could weigh in.

I can't see what the parents would testify to?? They're in that courtroom for one reason...to elicit sympathy from the jurors.

Wonder what happened to Tray's father's girlfriend???

Florida’s stand your ground law has tort immunity. If a person is found innocent b/c of self defense. Then civil suits are prohibited as a matter of law.

This was to deal with the sleazy plaintiff attorneys that went after home owner insurances. In this case the HOA surrendered too fast. The lawyers they had were fools.

interesting how Trayvon went from talking tough (calling Z a creepy cracka-ass and joking about how Z might be a rapist) to suddenly screaming at the top of his lungs in utter fear.

“the best person to id voice is who is familiar with voice their whole life.”

Interesting point, since that cuts out Sybrina Fulton. They will need to ask Tracy Martin’s other “wife” who says she raised Trayvon for 14 years.

Wow it’s really been already a month for this joke of a trial? Sheesh...

...it’s pretty much obvious to everyone but the race baiters that he’s innocent, right?

Talk about a waste of everything (time, money, talent, you name it), not to mention a nice little distraction for the Chief Kenyan.

They might want to explain why the hell their kid, having been suspended three times for criminal activities, was left alone to his own devices that night? Nah!
