Anyone see the judge grill Zimmerman about wanting the take the witness stand? WTF was that about? Was that in front of the jury?

There will be some sort of misconduct case if he ends up getting convicted. This judge sure seems biased.

I saw that part with the judge questioning Zim about whether he would testify, and yes believe it or not it was with the jury present.

As predicted, the judge also is going to instruct the jury for manslaughter.

The prosecution is literally throwing out everything they can hoping something will stick. They actually had the temerity to try to add 3rd Degree Murder by Child Abuse to the charge list. If anyone is holding on to the impression that this is actually a trial to find justice, that should just about end it. Complete political theater now.

This was not a Murder case from the start. This should have been a Man Slaughter trial from day one. This is why I would Fire the DA. :nod:
The DA is elected, and that is EXACTLY why this gross prosecutorial malpractice is occurring.

In this case the DA, Norm Wolfinger, was told to step down by the Governor because he didn't see fit to bring charges due to self defense.

Governor Scott, a republican, appointed a special prosecutor, Angela Corrie, from Jacksonville, to do the political bidding and bring charges against Zimmerman. The attorneys prosecuting this case were hand picked by Corrie. They aren't even from our circuit.

Of course, but the prosecution has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman is guilty of manslaughter. I have no doubt that Zman is a punk, but that doesn't make him guilty of manslaughter. But, as I said, I imagine he will be convicted of manslaughter and the MSM will go nuts.

Of course. We all know how well educated the MSM and the population is in legal theories and practices. They will be outraged.

The city must be worried about being called racists because they claim it’s just a training exercise while the police officers say it’s aimed at the Zimmermna trial.
Miami Police Bring In Horses, Batons, Plan Riot Formations For Possible Violence After Zimmerman Verdict…


MIAMI (CBS4) – Wednesday, around high noon, dozens of Miami Police officers lined up for riot training.
Armed with batons and horses, officers ran through various formations preparing for the worst.
“It’s a mandatory training. All these officers are given this equipment and it’s in the event we have civil unrest at any given moment our officers are ready on a minute’s notice,” Miami Police spokesman Freddie Cruz said.

Ironic that is happening the same week a verdict in the controversial George Zimmerman trial could come down, a verdict that could incite civil unrest.

“This is just purely coincidence and it is mandatory training we have to do every year.” Cruz reassured.
Miami’s police union believes almost too coincidental.

“It’s very coincidental that it’s falling at this time.” Javier Ortiz with the Fraternal Order of Police said.
The union president said he hadn’t heard about the training until a few weeks ago.
“We haven’t had the training since 2011 so I don’t know if it really considered routine.”
The training, happening for weeks, will wrap up this week.

“There has been some talk among the officers that we believe that this training has to do with the fact that there might be some type of civil unrest, but we are hoping that that doesn’t happen,” Ortiz said.

I remember when they had to use horses,tear gas, riot gear, etc. to control all the white people after the OJ Simpson trial after the prosecution bungled the case. Neighborhoods set afire, mass looting......

If we get a verdict on a Friday, it'll likely be a week from Friday. Defense has closing arguments tomorrow (3 hours) followed by rebuttal on Prosecution's part (think about an hour remaining) before it goes to the jury which won't be until after lunch plus jury instructions. In a case like this, it would be unusual (but not unheard of) that a verdict would come down in a matter of hours.
