The media effort is like with elections: to make the contest a “horse race”, so as to stretch it out.
The defense may call her back this week to give her the opportunity to elaborate — after she gets to watch Ben Crump taken apart on the stand right in front of her.
Sorry, but we don't know that the verdict will be "Not guilty." We don't know how liberal these jurors are; if they are all liberals, the verdict will be "Guilty as charged."
Think about how upside down this case is: Don't liberal juries usually return verdicts of "Not Guilty" but in this case a liberal jury is expected to return one of "Guilty as charged"???
These Slantinel reporters are horrible.....Det Serino said there were no inconsistencies in Zimmerman testimony.
The prosecutors have only proven they are corrupt....and Zimmerman is innocent
Anyone that doesn’t think this was self defense is an idiot.
at the presser z’s attorney mentioned wed or thurs with caveat that might take longer based on upcoming depo’s and they are also waiting for a few rulings by judge.
I hope the defense deposes Daryl Parks and axes him about his statement in this article:
http://edition.cnn.com/2012/04/03/justice/florida-teen-shooting/index.html
“On Monday, agents interviewed Martin’s girlfriend, the 16-year-old girl who, phone records show, was on the line with him shortly before the fatal confrontation, Martin family attorney Daryl Parks confirmed Tuesday.”
So then who did the FBI interview that day — because that Monday was April 2nd, the Monday that Bernie was interviewing Rachel Jeantel, the 18-year-old.
This jury must have some realization, that, they risk ostracization and shunning from friends and family if they convict Zimmerman...when it is clear it was self defense. Jury will worry more about riots within their homes than the riots in the Black Ghettos
It’s not hate that when that Rachel witness said white cracker ass....is this worse than f... Punks? I think maybe so.
By now this judge has to know that GZ is not guilty. By Tuesday she will have even more evidence of that and by Friday it will be overwhelming.
If she had one honorable bone in her body she would protect those six members of the jury from ostracization and potential retribution by making the decision herself instead of dumping it on them.
But there is not an honorable bone in her body or anyone else’s around her or above her.
Everything then goes back into limbo, no reason to riot (not that a reason is needed), procecution then has to decide if they will re-try, after about six months of no word, no publicity, they quietly decide to not re-try the case.
The best outcome for the state may be a hung jury but not for Zimmerman.
The state is then vindicated for bringing the charges and gets to save face by not refiling them.
And what makes anyone think that that decision not to refile atleast for manslaughter charges won’t cause riots???
Zimmerman is then left with paying his own legal bills and subsequent civil suits.
A hung jury helps the state but not Zimmerman.
There is absolutely no evidence that this was not self defense.
IMO GZ has already lost whether convicted or not. A hung jury would probably help avoid massive riots. GZ needs to move far far away and the state should quietly find a way to pay his bills. Sorry to say that the interest of justice is not being served.
Malicious prosecution is a civil matter.
The way to take out Angela Corey is through an election by the people in her district or if the Florida State Bar takes action.
Yep -- they can't have watched the same trial that all of us have.
GZ had already lost when 12 y/o Saint Trayvon decided to assault him that evening. From that moment on, the question was how badly would he lose. Being armed reduced the short-term loss. Having been attacked by a son of Obama increased the long-term loss.
My neighbor is a criminal court judge and she still can't believe half the stuff this judge is being allowed to get away with. She considers the whole trial as nothing more than a political sham-and she's a democrat.
You must acquit.
