    If that's who TM was dating I think it was a mercy killing. Ugh

    These witnesses are complete morons. It's a hoot listening to them try to answer a freakin question.

    I'm shocked the prosecution used this chick. She already lied under oath prior to this, and at best as questionable morals.

    The entire courtroom couldn't drag this hog out. The prosecution are idiots.

    Not hard to make a case for the Orange County DA's office as the most inept in the country. This whole thing has been a clusterfuck from the start.

    This was great.

    So the prosecution's case is anchored by witnesses who heard someone scream (can't be sure who) and have changed their story about who was on top. Right.

    Even if George Zimmerman acted in self defense, it's because he's a fucking idiot that someone died. So if he's found guilty, and it was self defense...I can't feel bad for him.

    I'm kind of with Zwick on this. I don't think Zimmerman will be found guilty, I'm surprised the murder charge stuck honestly. I thought it would get downgraded to manslaughter.

    When you have an unwinnable case the POTUS "tells you" to try, at least go for the max so people feel like you threw the book at him. I don't think there was ever much of a chance of any sort of murder/manslaughter charge. They might have got him on something less than that.

    And I don't understand that. I've seen other people get tried or literally dozens and dozens of charges. I don't understand the relative lack of lower charges. My only explanation is that if you give the jury something they can actually convict on, the bloodthirsty might think you gave the jury an out to let him off. In other words, given the racially charged atmosphere surrounding this case, a lesser charge might be even more of a loss. So you overcharge, put on a dog and pony show, and then pray there are no riots.

    Zimmerman's attorney read a letter from Jeantel to TM's mother, written with the help of a friend. Jeantel can't read the letter, says "I can't read cursive."

    Star witness is a retarded person, good lawyering right there.

    No one "axed" her certain questions, so she didn't put it in the letter.

    Per Louie CK - as a white man, nothing you say to me is offensive.

    Well, Zimmerman is White-Hispanic, so it is offensive.

    These "analysts" sicken me. They say she's getting bullied on the stand because of the way she talks. I say she's getting a pass because she's black.
