He's been laughing throughout his testimony even with the defense but ya, I think he found the size of the flashlight very funny lol On July 10 2013 02:49 dAPhREAk wrote: thats relatively cheap. i have seen $800-1000/hr bills. wow, that's nuts! edit: what is this prosecutor yapping around? | ||

They keep trying to push that theory when there's literally no evidence to support it. | ||

I think maybe this witness proposed that as the only other way the shirt could be pulled so far away before, and the prosecution has jumped on it. Despite there being, like you said, no evidence or witnesses saying that was the case. | ||

I was thinking the exact thing. He seems like a defense attorney arguing for reasonable doubt. | ||

The thing for me is, the prosecutor is openly admitting that Z and T were struggling and fighting. Rolling around, fighting against a tree...They're acknowledging he definitely hit his head. Even if Zimmerman initiated contact, and there's no evidence he did, this proves nothing. Zimmerman, even if he punched Trayvon right in the face which started the fight, Zimmerman still could have been defending himself legitimately with a gun if the fight got out of hand and he tried to disengage but Trayvon wouldn't let him. | ||

I am pretty sure they said treyvon had no bruising or injuries besides the gunshot would and the injury on his hand. Prosecution is really reaching now. Even if he hit him, there is no evidence for it. | ||

The longer this goes on the more the prosecution looks desperate and even somewhat idiotic/dense. | ||

Martin didn't break Zimmerman's nose, but if he did, it could have caused so much blood to flow into his throat that he couldn't have been the one screaming? Sounds so much like a defense attorney rambling on into various contradictions of his own random conjecture. The longer this goes on the more the prosecution looks desperate and even somewhat idiotic/dense. I've broken my nose 4 times and that has literally never happened to me. | ||
