Yes, that's exactly correct.

She basically said that there wasn't anything in the case law, as far as determining factors, that a proffer would provide. Decision was basically that the evidence needs to come in, and it doesn't depend on something gained from a proffer. I guess.

and that was correct on her part. thats why they should have asked for a Frye/Daubert hearing on the question of whether the drugs would in fact have any effect on trayvon, and what scientific evidence supports that. that is where the real weakness of the evidence can be attacked.

I wasn't referring to his ability to perform in a fight but the likelihood of someone who is "stoned" to seek one out.

But again the impact of such trace amounts is totally irrelevant. For perspective TM had 1.5ng per ml you can have up to 24ng (49 in some places) per ml and pass a drug test....

Well, what the judge said is that these are issues of weight (ie credibility) as opposed to admissibility.

John Good's testimony for the Jury's brains, talking about a drugged up TM for the Jury's prejudices.

Even if the State still had an argument, I can't see a recovery from this. Jurors that argue with their heads will bring up John and Jurors who argue with their gut will bring up drugged up delinquent.

A Daubert hearing is a hearing held away from the jury to see whether expert testimony is admissible.

court acts as a gatekeeper to keep unscientific expert opinions away from the ears of a jury. if the expert opinion is not supported by credible scientific background, it will be excluded from evidence.

So is Rout (sp?) completely out, or is it just the portion of his testimony related to self-defense law in Florida?

Yeah not arguing the legality on this one just that it is totally being brought in to prejudice the jury against the prosecution and is no way relevant to the events of that night (as the defense is presenting it[not to mention it further besmirches Cannabis which, if it were not for the GOV propaganda to reinforce racist policies, would be considered one of the most amazing plant families we have ever discovered]).

This is my problem with where the justice system has ended up. It has nothing to do with the "truth" it has everything to do with fabricating the best case you can, manipulating the facts to construct the best "legal" "story" the "facts" you can't keep out of the courtroom will allow.

The idea that at the end of a trial "justice" has been served to me is a joke. I don't have a better system but it is still disappointing neither side in this case (and too many others) gives 2 shits about what actually happened that night just what serves their personal interests.

There is no better way to find truth than to have two people arguing incessantly while a third party parses out which one is the most convincing. One side brings all the facts he believes in, the other side brings all the facts they believe in.

Design wise its pretty good.

Yeah I agree it's the best we got but the idea that they "believe in these facts" is a somewhat laughable notion. They believe the facts that gives their client the best chance at success. Regardless of how ridiculous and implausible. Unless your talking about public defenders in which case their client is lucky if they read the case before their day in court. (In defense of PD's [haha] they are overworked and underpaid so it's not exactly their fault they tend to do a piss poor job of doing anything other than asking the prosecutor for a reasonably fair plea.

I sympathize with this, but there are two arguments for our system:

A lot of times, justice is served. There are some cases where it's clear what happened and putting the motherfucker away or letting the innocent go is justice served. Other times, it's hard because "what really happened that night" is a lot of times, indeterminable. We can get a reasonable picture, but every single fact, every single facet of every involved party's mind? It's just impossible. At that point, we have to go off of setting up reasonable doubts and using "tricks" of the courtroom to get the best possible result. Innocent people may go to prison, guilty people may go free, but there really isn't a better way of doing it.

It sucks, but it's what it has to be.
