Zimmerman trial, Jury present during Judge questioning
7-11-13 | Me

Just a question:

I've heard Judge Nelson asked G Zimmerman directly if he planned on testifying at two different times during this farce of a "trial".

Was the jury present during either of these interrogations? The way it was done was highly inappropriate, if not the questions themselves. But if the jury heard this, that would be highly prejudicial, from the Judge. Astounding.

It is a good question that is worthy of its own thread.

Ever heard of paragraphs, essays?


What kind of question is that in regard to this thread?

An ‘essay’ on whether the jury was in the room?

I know she badgered him, I just meant at two different occasions. :)

Yeah, apparently I angered the Cat, though. The claws came out pretty fast. Revolting Cat! , if you don’t like my question, don’t open the thread.

It was reported that the jury was not present.

If I were on the jury and had heard this exchange, that along with many other things would have soured me even more against this judge.

He Cat, you are being a bit revolting. I understand your point about the general rules we all follow on here but this is a legitimate exception.

And even if you disagree, try not to be so harsh. Another rule here is that we are all FRiends.

Yeah, now that you mention it, maybe Mr. Farley was conceived in a van down by the river :)

This judge tells me that whatever you do, avoid drinking the water in Florida. Don’t eat the oranges either.

Has anyone seen her suck lemons on the bench? She has to be sucking lemons.

“She did not ask him two times, I heard her ask him 14 times.”

No, she did not ask him 14 times. Have no idea where you got that from.

Four times asking if you want to testify.

Two times if you know when you will make a decision.

She shouldn’t have asked him once at that point during the trial. Obnoxious.

Zimmerman showed remarkable restraint, and also that he knew enough to answer about “after the last witnesses are called”.

I would have answered “I don’t know” all six times!

I don’t believe the jury was there. His lawyers would have objected.

His lawyers would have objected.

They did, which still doesn't answer our question about jury presence. I believe our judge is acting crazy like a fox, throwing out lots of hints to hang the jury. All it takes is one (1) lo-info sympathetic "nice" woman with similar peri-menopausal symptomology.

A hanger would give the state another bite of the apple. Her assigned task of throwing this "trial" might be easier if she would just wear the St. Trayvon Hoodie, instead of the non-flattering "judicial" robes.

De la Rionda's summation was pretty darn good fiction. I think he should get the Free St. Trayvon Hoodie with the Algonquin J. Calhoun of the Day ribbon.

I never counted the times, but since she asked him at two different occasions it was quite a few times in all.
