I've started to believe it is actually his voice from hearing it so many times lol. I think her testimony will stand unlike the previous testimonies as to whose voice it is? | ||

The problem is they would need to provide a reason for him to lie, rather than claim he was mistaken. All the Defense has to ask is "Are you sure? Even though it was dark, you are 100% sure of what you saw?" and the issue is sort of moot. All they needed to do was ask the gym owner, "Could you tell who was winning in a 1 on 1 fight if it was taking place in "pitch black"?" The defense doesn't have to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Trayvon attacked Zimmerman. Even if it was that dark, all his testimony has to show is that its reasonably plausible that Trayvon was continuing to attack Zimmerman after he had told them to stop. Sure it's possible that he didn't see clearly and it was actually Zimmerman on top/Trayvon wasn't really punching but maybe flailing etc.... those are all possible; as possible as John Good's testimony being accurate. They need to show that what John Good saw was wrong/impossible. Showing how he "may" have been mistaken doesn't prove guilt. You need to get past the objective definitions of things like "reasonable doubt" and realize that the prosecutions case is weak enough to warrant them hoping that the jury alters it's understanding of the case as per instructions. No, disputing John Good's testimony doesn't prove guilt, but they don't have much else to go off of. Then I would say that the darkness confused him as to who was on top and lead the jury by saying that if Mr. Good saw MMA moves and we know that Zimmerman had MMA training, it's most likely that the scuffle confused him. Doesn't really prove anything, but if you hope that the Jury forgets about reasonable doubt I would go that route. | ||

It was quick, painless and puts reasonable doubt on her testimony although I agree, they could've asked a bit more questions but too late at this point imo. I doubt she has anymore information that can help them with this case. edit: oops, typo. Thought you meant the prosecution although I guess that works either way lol. Post below me is spot on imo. | ||

I think they were trying to get more, but were unable to with her inability to correctly identify the position of George's truck. She kept referring to it as Retreat View Circle, when that is clearly mistaken. They pretty much had to abandon whatever was going to come of that. | ||

Even if , for example, it was murder, zimmermann could still be the one who cried for help. | ||

Even if , for example, it was murder, zimmermann could still be the one who cried for help. if trayvon was crying for help, it was unlikely zimmerman was acting in self defense. it is hard to argue you feared for your life from a person that was crying for help. if zimmerman was crying for help, it adds support to his claim for self defense although, as you state, it still could have been murder/manslaughter. | ||

They're gonna throw in everything good Zimmerman has ever done under the sun too, including that time he gave Missy Langford back her tootsie roll pop when it fell out of her pocket in the 2nd grade. By the time O'Mara is done, if you believe him, Zimmerman will be both Luke Skywalker and the reincarnation of Martin Luther King, Jr. | ||
