George Zimmerman Trial Thread
— Ace

I see a lot of people are talking about this in comments.

The prosecution's "star witness" isn't such a star.

Jeantel is mumbling her testimony, leading to delays in the courtroom. She has already allegedly perjured herself months ago by stating that she missed MartinÂ’s funeral because she was in the hospital.

She alleges that Trayvon said "White Hispanic is following me," or something like that, moments before the shooting.

Although I just started watching it, Shep and his legal expert say that Zimmerman's lawyer is doing a horrible job with this witness, avoiding every chance to impeach her, generally having no control over her. She's legal expert actually said the lawyer's malperformance could be the basis of an ineffective assistance of counsel appeal, should it come to that.

I doubt that but I guess he's doing a very poor job.

9 From what I've gathered, she is completely unintelligible. Also, here's a protip, when you're 19? Might not be the best idea to put all over twitter and facebook what and how much you're going to drink. The court nails tweet was a nice touch as well. I bet there's a better than even chance she is under some type of chemical assistance.

Okay, I have been known to slur my words.  I tend to talk fast (I live up north -- we're cold people and talk fast to conserve heat), so   even when I try to enunciate sometimes it runs together.

 

But THIS girl.   My God...   Did the prosecution not coach her on proper poise, pronunciation, and    projection?   She's slurring like a drunk leper that lost her tongue    and   huffing and puffing like an spoiled hippo.   WTH?

 

And yes, she's large, but she's not as bad as SOME landbeasts I've seen.    She'd be quite pretty if she didn't have that look   of    slackjawed dullness on her face all the time.

Summary; overzealous neighborhood watch dude, armed, when told to disengage the perp, does not. Confrontation ensues with perp, who is not exactly an honor student, wherein pursuer gets pummeled, wrongly, and in an attempt to ensure he continues breathing air shoots perp. Dead.

Not murder. At best, best manslaughter. The rest is politics, hate, political drama and another sad statement on our society. Why watch it?

116 I'm not watching the trial, but:

" She's legal expert actually said the lawyer's malperformance could be the basis of an ineffective assistance of counsel appeal, should it come to that."

Look, the defense attorney has a black female witness, a female judge, and an all-female jury.  The tactic is to have all of that estrogen focusing on the witness, not on a man badgering a young woman on the stand.  It seems to be working if the "expert" is exasperated that the attorney isn't turning the witness inside out.

122 Zimmerman's lawyer is doing a horrible job with this witness, avoiding every chance to impeach her, generally having no control over her. Maybe he figures he doesn't have to?

123 83 O/T -- Great Britain refuses entry to Pamela Geller essentially for being a joooooo! http://bit.ly/16A22sM --- A little too simplistic an argument, IMHO. More accurately, they're scared shitless of letting an anti-Sharia activist speak in front of a National Front audience after those two "African youths" beheaded a British soldier last month, regardless of whether she's a Jew or not. They want to avoid more "incitement" of the Islamic population. As in, they want to force dhimmitude upon the rest of the population.

165 114 Good cross-examination sometimes requires "playing Columbo" and letting the witness hang themselves. You save the explosive impeachment until AFTER you've gotten the witness to wander as far as you want. Then you come back and bam bam bam impeach.

Challenging her at every possible moment is not effective. Shep is an idiot.
==========
Yup.

You don't have to object to everything--unless you're trying it for appeal. Which means you plan on losing at trial.

Guess Shep watched more "this is what we think lawyers do" Law&Order and less "show actually written by a lawyer" Perry Mason.

Hint: The defense can re-call the witness for their case in main. Cross during the prosecution is merely to set them up for your turn later (and to get them to open doors the prosecution wanted shut).

214 This guy is leading her.... I read somewhere (some time ago) that you get to do that a little bit on cross-examination. I dunno- since I can't even remember where I read it, now- but I think it had something to do with the idea that when you're questioning on cross-examination, the witness is already defined (to some degree) as "hostile." Take that for the precisely nothing it's worth, until one of our lawyer types can fill me in.

286 It should not be national news, but it is, because national politicians and their meat puppets in the MFM decided it was, which is actually the story. And after this mess, Zimmerman should *own* freaking CBS and NBC, they slandered and libeled him *horribly*. As did so many others (regardless of the question of guilt). This was almost a case you never heard of. I can imagine what it was like when Zimmerman heard it was suddenly all turning into a political gambit and the prosecutors were overturning the previous decision (on whether to try). Also, gee, it would be nice if at least a handful of the public death threats were tried.

312 266. "wakening" That's curious if true. I know first hand how the game of "telephone" and urban-myths happens with rapid-fire rapidity in certain black communities--e.g., the Lincoln penny is copper and different because Lincoln freed the slaves, and whites didn't like that, so they made that penny out of copper instrad of nickel. Obviously a corruption of "wake" if she is in fact saying "wakening". Curious as if she corrupted the word herself, or if a new mythology has arisen around it.

317 Apparently one of the charges against Aaronthal is having a firearm without the papers. As far as I'm concerned it's a BS piling-on law. If the dude is convicted of murder, who cares if the firearm was legal? First, let us stipulate that any such law is garbage and a blatant infringement on the 2nd Amendment. If "poor" and "minority" voters can't find some way to get a FREE (that is: taxpayer provided) picture ID to go vote, so that's an infringement of the 14th A, then requiring any form of paperwork (or even background check, natch) for a gun is an infringement on the 2nd A. (Actually, I have real reasons it's an infringement, I just like pointing out the hypocrisy). Second, let us stipulate that it is a "piling-on law." Based on 1 & 2, I'd prefer the law be repealed and not be available. That said, it is available to prosecutors, so... So what? The douche murdered someone (assuming he is, in fact, guilty). Anything we can do to keep him away from society as long as possible is good IMO.

Defense attorney doing an excellent job being patient and allowing her to narrate at appropriate time. And yes, on cross-examination, the attorney is permitted to lead the witness. In Federal courts, the cross examination is limited to the issues discussed during direct examination. Such is not the case in Florida and most other state courts.

374 and in an attempt to ensure he continues breathing air shoots perp. Dead. Not murder. At best, best manslaughter. The rest is politics, hate, political drama and another sad statement on our society. Why watch it? Posted by: Marcus at June 26, 2013 03:49 PM (GGCsk) __________________ Not even manslaughter. It was, as the Sanford police who investigated the shooting also concluded (before backtracking under political pressure) -- justifiable self defense. It is not a crime to shoot someone who has jumped you, punched your face hard enough to break your nose, knocked you down, and is straddling you and pounding your head into a concrete sidewalk. It is also not a crime to phone police to report that there is a suspicious person walking around in your neighborhood, in the dark, while it's raining. It is also not a crime to follow that person from a distance and report on his movements to the police. The person being followed may well become very annoyed by what you're doing, but that does not give him the legal right to assault and beat you. This is not a criminal prosecution. This is a political persecution, masquerading as a criminal prosecution. This persecution is being conducted to satisfy the demands of the racial grievance industry, whose commander in chief currently occupies the White House (and who, if he had a son, would look like drug-dealing, gangsta' thug wannabe Trayvon Martin). That's why we're interested.

Posted by: tcn at June 26, 2013 04:31 PM (VLG62)

 

By the prosecution bringing up texts, AND the Defense getting the witness to say some are hers, some not... it opens up all the Texts for later questions...

 

They can read them one by one, asking her is she sent them or not... backdoor way of getting that info in front of the Jury...

IIRC, no one used the phrase "white hispanic" until about 36 hours after the incident.

First it was "white man kills unarmed black man" and the MFM started peddling the six year old pic of an 11yo Martin.

Then they heard the name "Zimmerman" and the MFM was all like "white man (JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!) kills unarmed black teen" and they showed Martin's 3rd grade school picture.

Then we learned that GZ was actually hispanic, there was about 78 seconds of silence the the MFM started screaming "white hispanic kills unarmed precious black child" and then they showed Martin's ultrasound pictures

523 She should have spoken up and she sounds drunk or high, but as far as mumbling I kind of give her a break on that. I feel like I'm going deaf sometimes when I speak to my teen (This woman is 19, correct) because my teen frequently mumbles and he's neither a drinker nor a drug user. I know quite a few teens who have a tendency to mumble a lot.

"Good cross-examination sometimes requires "playing Columbo" and letting the witness hang themselves. You save the explosive impeachment until AFTER you've gotten the witness to wander as far as you want. Then you come back and bam bam bam impeach. Challenging her at every possible moment is not effective. Shep is an idiot."

----

Playing "Columbo" is exactly what he's doing.  He did a shorter version of it with the neighbor lady yesterday who testified about hearing running from south to north, when she'd never before mentioned anything about direction.

 

You let the witness wander as far as you want, as wooga said.  Don't challenge them on everything, because that gets their guard up.  Give them plenty of rope.  And without telegraphing what you are doing if possible, get them to commit to facts that you are going to come back with at the end when you spring your trap.

 

For instance, he's asking her questions now that get to why she took so long to come forward.  She's making up all kinds of excuses -- "I don't watch the news"; "I thought they had the guy"; "I thought the police were supposed to call me." Like she didn't find out TM was dead for a while, didn't know she was an important witness, didn't think it had anything to do with her.  She didn't think her interview with Crump was important either, so she says.

 

Shep seems to think GZ's attorney's supposed to challenge her on every one of those answers -- "You expect me to believe THAT?", etc.  NO, NO, NO -- that gives her a chance to spin a new lie to weasel out of it.  You need to close off all escape routes before you spring the trap.

 

A little while ago he was asking about their friendship, how often they texted each other, that kind of thing.  Seems innocuous, right?  He's going to come back with that later, maybe not even while she's on the stand, maybe save it for closing argument:

 

"Ladies & gentlemen, Jeantel testified that she and TM texted and called each other dozens of times a day, and had known each other for years.  She testified that on 2/26, she was talking to him and he told her that he was scared of a 'creepy-ass cracker' that was following him.  She then testified that she was worried for him and told him to run -- and then that she heard sounds of a scuffle, the phone got cut off, and she tried to call back but didn't get through.  Yet when she later learned that TM -- her good friend, who she called and exchanged text messages with constantly -- had been killed, she didn't think that information was important enough to come forward with?  She didn't think anybody in law enforcement or in TM's family might be interested that just before he was shot, he was being stalked by a creepy white person??"

All he has to do is expose the State's case for the bunch of lies that it is. Especially this latest witness-Jeantel. Good Lord, what a mouth-breather she is. I actually feel sorry for her having to go through life with that mental handicap. Doesn't change the fact she's either lying or too stupid to know the difference between the truth and a lie.

731 If there is any integrity left in the Fla court system, the judge herself is going to stop the trial and render summary judgement.

732 I can seethe with anger that this case was prosecuted and I can laugh my ass off at the Blob's testimony, but I am saddened for my country because people like the Blob are more and more becoming the rule, not the exception.

734 Surely the State has something, anything, to justify this travesty.

736 posted by: Tami at June 26, 2013 05:25 PM (X6akg) Yes, they gave her that advice. She didn't follow their instructions, was too stupid to do so or she was was trying to come off as just quiet and it failed badly.

Sorry, but no. Showing the prosecution for the farce that it is might just get people to think twice about the racial extortion industry.

744 I missed the part about "get off."  Is she saying Trayvon was saying "get off" while he was on the phone with her?  Like, he was wrestling with Zimmerman and telling him to get off of him?  And then she just hung up and went about her business after hearing that?  Or did she claim he was wrestling with one hand and continuing the conversation with his phone in the other hand?

Sorry I missed that...

And when Jeanteel claims she just thought it was a fight so it wasn't all that important does that mean Trayvon often got in fights so she was used to it and figured it would be OK just like always?  Did the defense pursue that?

748 Ok,  my take is that it is possibly for a big day in the morning. 

1: Possible tack:   Phone logs,  She was on the phone when the altercation started and heard Zimmerman call for help,  and her call did not drop off until a minute or so after the screams.   I need to see the timeline but my guess is she heard Zimmerman's screaming and she knows it. 

Also interesting, thanks to DVR you can look at he recalling of the actual event on the stand this morning.   Until that time and after she is mumbles and annoyed.  When she perjures herself she starts doing a small bob and weave and gets the hint of a smile.  Her cadence picks up and you can see her thinking "I getting him now"..

749 Dear Peoples,
I have just been notified by Stedman that anyone who commented today about Sista Gentle will be the first of the insurrection in the camps. I have already requested the corner bunk with morning light and near the window unit. Pastel request will have to come later. I am in the "R" camp for rednecks. They would not say if I can bring my own pillow or gin. Prepare!

751 The Smoking Gun has scrubbed tweets of our dear witness (Jeantel Twitter scrub). My favorite, although I just started reading, is the one from January 24...also one of teh few not involving profanity:

"I know I have a lot of explain to do."


That's right, y'all...9am tomorrow. Be there.

756 Her name is Rachel "Dee-Dee" Jeantel, not Genitalia. She appears to be a heavy drinker and drug user, not very bright and a liar but could people please try to use her real name? If Rachel is too hard for you, maybe you could use "Dee-Dee"? Calling her genitalia is about as bad as calling her a "c--t", IMO.

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at June 26, 2013 05:03 PM (QzsP4)

758 @302 Re: Latrina I was with a German friend of mine at a tourist attraction in Chicago, and there happened to be a note addressed to staff that was clearly visible to the public. The name attached to it was "Latrina". Mind you, in German, "Latrine" is pronounced "latrina". My friend just about died laughing. Once she calmed down, we had a long conversation about unusual naming conventions among certain segments of the American population.

759 Don't know who Shep's expert is, but the defense is doing a good job with this witness. There's no need to crush her all at once. The longer it goes, the more she damages herself and state. The goal is not for Defense counsel to "beat" her-- that would be easy-- it's to have the story crumble away. I predict she will be weaker tomorrow, and the jury will have another negative impression to remember.

762 _______________________________

The prosecution is praying to God almighty that somehow, someway this gets fiasco gets declared a mistrial before it goes to jury deliberations.

IF this really was the state's star witness, it is extremely difficult to imagine how they could win a conviction.
On their best day, they'd get a hung jury. - And, further, they know it.
