^^^ +1. Totally agree; the defense wants acquittal of all charges and not a mistrial. I heard earlier on Hannity that the Judge is considering allowing the prosecution to reduce the charge from Murder 2 to manslaughter. I understand that is judicial discretion, but not often allowed.

The fox article I read said that the defense is arguing that GZ knew what he was doing when he pulled the gun and then the trigger, he did it to defend his life, so there is no case for manslaughter: either say its murder or acquit him.

I have to agree given all I've seen, but I think the cards are stacked politically against GZ and they do not want to let an acquittal happen under any circumstances. I sure hope it does just so a huge apocalyptic riot can occur LOL.

It won't even go to the jury before the end of the day Fri at the earliest. Probably not til Mon or later. There are closing arguments, jury instructions, etc. It'll be a few more days.

This trial is a sham. They are now allowing the jury to decide what level of crime he is guilty of, rather than the original accusation of second degree murder. Apparently the judge is allowing the jury to adjust the level of guilt to something that will satisfy the hoards and masses of those who will not be happy with Zimmerman getting off of the 2nd degree murder charge.

Thats not uncommon. If you are originally charged with murder they can find you guilty of a lesser charge like manslaughter.

Manslauter has been on the table along with murder 2 from the start..


Sounds like aggravated assault is on the menu as well. The state wants a conviction of something, even if it's not murder.

If he's acquitted, and there are riots, I may have to actually watch TV for the first time in years...
I'm not a lawyer, nor did I ever play one on TV, but I thought the state only filed charges of Murder 2 on this guy. I thought they could only convict of the charges filed, not drum up some lesser charge half way through the case. Doesn't he have a right to defend against charges of murder 3, manslaughter, assault, etc.? Or am I completely mistaken on this? [Dunno]

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/07/11/closing-arguments-to-begin-in-zimmerman-trial/

"After convincing the judge presiding over George Zimmerman’s second-degree murder trial to allow jurors to consider manslaughter, prosecutors sent the neighborhood watch volunteer’s defense lawyer into a rage by asking the judge to also include felony murder -- based on child abuse -- in the jury instructions."

"Judge Debra Nelson did not rule on the prosecution's request that juror's be able to consider the felony murder charge based on child abuse. Under felony murder statutes, a defendant can be charged with murder if he or she causes someone's death while committing a felony, in this case, according to the prosecution, child abuse."

(In other news, I'm actually slightly impressed with Fox; when I copied and pasted those two snippets, it automatically added a line saying "Read more at foxnewsblahblah". I edited it out, but still, having that sort of thing automatically embedded is an interesting and somewhat unusual feature)

But that doesn't answer my question though... I thought they need to drum up the charges (and possible secondary/lesser charges) prior to going to trial so that the defense can prepare to defend on that case. I didn't think you could bring in lesser charges after the trial had already begun.

I guess you can (at least in Florida), though indeed it sounds very, very dumb (like trying to do the double-jeopardy).

Sounds like BS to me. I can see if you plead down to a lesser charge to get your sentence cut down or something like that if you know you are guilty, but this is BS by the prosecution and the judge. this is becoming more and more of an "appease the people/media" than a murder trial by a jury of GZ's peers.

Bailey Guns
07-11-2013, 10:04
Many times a judge will instruct a jury that they can find a defendant guilty of lesser included charges. For example, from DUI to DWAI. But the elements of the offense still need to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. As someone else pointed out, the defense contends manslaughter is not an appropriate charge because Z acted knowingly and intentionally when he shot TM. If that's not an element of the offense in manslaughter it shouldn't be instructed as a lesser included offense.

Then again, I'm not an attorney and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. So I could be completely wrong on that.

This whole thing is a politically motivated goat-fuck that goes way higher than the DA's office in Florida.

Zimmerman will either be acquitted or, if he's found guilty of something, I think the defense has numerous grounds on which to appeal...not the least of which is the behavior of the judge.

HAVE these PC fukers sunk to an all time low in this case or what??


http://finance.yahoo.com/news/george-zimmermans-prosecutors-want-charge-151900966.html

Richard Mantei, one prosecutor in the case, explained, "When one commits ... child abuse, and the child dies — the child being defined as a person under the age of 18 — that can constitute felony murder in the third degree." Judge Debra Nelson noted that child abuse must be intentional. "Shooting is an intentional act. The question is whether is was justifiable, not intentional," Mantei responded.


HEY HERE'S AN IDEA.

iF YOU THE JURY BELIEVE GEORGE ZIMMERMAN SHOT TRADEMARK You can find him guilty of child abuse

No Mr. Obama, if you had a son he would look like a mix between you and Michelle. Unless Obama was sleeping with Trayvon's mom, then his son would probably look like Trayvon." [ROFL1]

I find this whole case very chilling for those who carry. Even if you are involved in a "clean shoot", your life may well be ruined - maybe even loss of your life - if the victim is a different race than you and black. Of course, this has to be a positive outcome for the antis. When you have the president, most of the print and TV media, and the self-appointed black leaders (Sharpton/Jackson/etc) demanding a guilty verdict before the trial starts, that is incitement of violence. Although I don't wish for riots, should it come to that this will be a major race setback between blacks/whites and perhaps blacks/hispanics.

which is why i always find it disturbing how some on here talk about pulling their piece anytime someone ruffles their feathers. putting yourself in the court's hands is a baaaaaaad idea. i hope this case, if nothing else, reminds those of us that carry what a big responsibility it really is.

the problem here is that we don't know it was a "clean shoot". there is basically no solid evidence either way, if there was just one witness that actively saw the fight go down this wouldn't be such a big deal, the issue is that no one wants a person to get off scot free if it was some racially motivated murder. and of course we don't want a completely innocent guy to spend any time in prison either. everyone has a bias in this case, but if you really look at all the evidence is amazing how such a thing can happen and no one know how it really went down. i definitely don't think there is enough evidence to convict, not even close. but i also don't think there is enough for me to say without a doubt that it happened just as GZ says it did.

I agree with those that say the last 5 years of Obama being president has set us back 40 years in race relations. This whole trial is just another step on that path.

Agree to a point. I've seen the smallest person overcome the biggest one on the block. Personally had he stayed put, this may or may not have happened.
With that being said, no matter how good or bad a shape he was or should have been in. The Lynch Mob mentality of this administration, the DOJ and usual bomb throwers puts this country in a very precarious position.

This I can go with, your previous statement about how we all (able bodied men, thanks for that correction) should learn how to fight is just an asinine argument. Yes learning a martial art is beneficial and a very healthy option (good workout!), but it is just that, a good idea, not everyone should be expected to be a "fighter" and not everyone should be expected to learn some basics. Some don't due to personal, financial, and time reasons, among others, and that's why many carry guns, to defend themselves because fighting just isn't an option, or they perhaps never want to get into a fight -well no one should want to get into a fight- I sure don't, and I know a bit more than just the basics and don't care to ever have to use that knowledge/skill.

I'm pretty sure that the prosecutor mentioned that the Skittles (TM) weren't stolen by Trayvon (TM) to reinforce his point that the only crime Trayvon (TM) committed was having the Skittles (TM).

The irony is that the skittles and the Arizona iced tea are ingredients in an urban street drug called "Lean" or "Purple Drank" (which the autopsy showed the prolonged use of which had already done some damage to sweet innocent lil' Trayvon's brain).

Its my understanding that Lean is often made with Arizona Watermelon Iced Tea* and Skittles (along with a bottle of Robitussin). But I'll gladly admit I know little of hip-hop culture.

Agreed.
In Zimmys case he probably could have avoided the entire situation by observing and reporting and walking away.
Which according to testimony is what he did, only to have Martin step out from behind a bush and escalate the situation. At that point avoidance is not an option.
If testimonies are true I feel Zimmerman exhibited reasonable restraint of employing his weapon until he was on his back with somebody bigger, younger and stronger than him curb bouncing his head.
Avoidance was not an option at that point as well.

None of us really know what happened but there are times when one can take reasonable means to avoid problems but sometimes problems come to you. Then you cannot avoid the shit.

Non-blacks should just remain securely in their homes. Should they need to travel, they should drive with the windows up and doors locked while passing through the safari to avoid danger. The same mindset in The Virginia Pilot beatings (http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2012/06/07/still-no-911-call-release-in-the-virginia-pilot-beatings-smells-like-a-cover-up/)- If you stop at an intersection to obey traffic laws, and if your car is attacked with bricks, stay inside keep the doors locked and drive away quickly.

A lot of courts do things differently. In Colorado the jury has the right to recess at 5 or 6 and ask to reconvene on the following business day. I'm not sure how it works in Florida but id imagine its somewhat similar. If I'm the defense I'm hoping the jury comes to a verdict tonight and being that they're sequestered I'd be willing to bet the jurors want to wrap it up tonight so they don't spend the entire weekend locked in a hotel room with only supervised family visitation and no access to television or social media.

I believe the jury has been sequestered for the entire trial. They may want to hurry up and go home...but they'll probably want to be politically correct and drag this out so that it seems like they took their time weighing the evidence.

The GOVT has the resources and the backing to keep going after Zimmerman but really this about coming after the 2nd Amendment and the racial wrongs of the past that wont be forgotten. This is about punishing the Caucasian race, the 2nd amendment is seen by the other side as tool of the Caucasian that must be taken away.

Micheal Brown had a couple real good points today when he aired interviews of the sitting police chief when TM got capped and the current police chief.
The one that was in place when this went down followed the rule of law and as such could not charge Zimmy.
The current one said a group of 30k citizens were outraged(thanks EH for using tax dollars to stir the pot) and wanted an arrest and trial and now they have both.

If recent polls are correct and blacks are more racist than whites (the poll even indicated most blacks believed that), then we may be returning to the 1950s in Mississippi - but in reverse. Most people aren't racist, but if they are living in fear of other races this can lead to bad places. Many think the witness Rachel Jeantal was being 100% honest when she described TM describing GZ as a "Creepy ass cracker" and also didn't think that was a racist comment. If blacks in their own communities talk about whites in that way, I am concerned where this will lead. Many on the left fan the flames of racial division every chance they get and cry racism any time anyone disagrees with them or a progressive brother/sister. Then if this trial is used as the "justification" for black racial violence, this will increase fear and lead to further division. I can say that I truly do not know any racist person, no matter what race. However, good people can still fear others and be concerned for their own and their family's safety.

The sad thing is this is receiving enough attention to capture a long running thread on this forum. However; I will be glued to the TV/radio waiting for:

The white/hispanic riots that occur because Mr. Zimmerman is convicted of manslaughter.

The overwhelming support from the media and the drones regarding our criminal justice system; and how the whole indictment, trial, and prosecution was factually based, and not racially biased.

A huge outcry of support by all citizens for the ability to be able to be armed and ready to defend their life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness without the aid of law enforcement.



Yes, my eyes are brown... And pardon my french; but I'm tired of this shit already. Negroes die by the hands of negroes daily in this country; as do crackers by crackers; but it doesn't hit a media frenzy/public outcry/federal level until one race kills another.

The worst that I've seen in Colorado was either minorities on the RTD (who like as not were told to shut the **** up by other people with the same skin color) or a mouth-breathing inbred at the first Denver Tea Party (who was told to "f*** off and don't talk to me" by at least a few of the white people there.)

i don't think riots will be an issue if he gets a lesser charge. i am only concerned about them if he gets off free. most people that think hes guilty, that i have seen, actually admit the evidence isn't very strong for murder. they would be fine if it was manslaughter and the like. if completely innocent then yeah i think it could be a problem. but then again i don't know. the trial has gone on long enough that people might have calmed down overall.

This happens with a lot of High Profile Cases nowadays, Lifetime made the Jodi Arias movie while the trial was still ongoing and it came out weeks after the verdict came in!!!

I have waited till all the facts from the trial to comment on this case; it is of my opinion that too many people have used this as a political issue, with Liberals for Trayvon and Conservatives for Zimmerman. Both sides are making each persons involved to be above reproach, when in reality both characters seems to have a "complicated" pasts (Zimmerman (http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/03/27/10894561-zimmerman-accused-of-domestic-violence-fighting-with-a-police-officer?lite) and Trayvon (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2120504/Trayvon-Martin-case-He-suspended-times-caught-burglary-tool.html)).

No one can say with 100% certainty what happened on the night these two lives crossed paths: was Zimmerman a "wannabe cop" who tried to take justice into his own hands--OR--was Trayvon a "wannabe thug" who attacked Zimmerman for being a "creepy-ass honky"? The truth usually lies somewhere in between as they say.

It was of my opinion from the beginning that this whole affair was a "he said/she said" scenario (which it has). Only two people will know what really happened on that night are Martin and Zimmerman, with Zimmerman the last man standing to tell his tale. We will never know the truth; however, this is the reason why I believe Zimmerman should be found not-guilty--due to lack of sufficient evidence from the State proving Zimmerman maliciously attacked Martin.

I wish one day America will start thinking of issues beyond that of race but the media clearly loves to peddle these stories in the public arena for both political (media bias) and commercial reasons (this trial has been a rating coupé for the media).

My personal opinion is this: we are sheltered in CO. Racism is rampant on the coasts, large cities, and the south. Go to some of the "larger" news outlets covering this trial, or other racially charged ones, and look at the comments. The hate that is spewed by all sides make the "knee-breakers" and NYCO's on this forum look like saints...

We're not sheltered, just a different way of life. URBAN ( especially liberal states) areas have a entitlement mentality. CO until who knows when, was spared that due to folks actually wanting to work, provide for a family, have something to show for all of it, no matter what color they are. An example on say the east coast would be NY/ NJ even DC. Program after program, over decades of entitlements bred a circle of welfare families.
We moved here 30 years ago and had no clue 25% or our neighborhood was "black" unless you looked at the color of their skin. NO obnoxious music blaring 24/7 NO homes in disrepair, NO crime in the area, NO disrespecting one another , property or way of life, NOTHING. Only wanting to provide and enjoy a color blind life style.
Urban or suburban, East or west coast, even southern areas like Houston , forget it. black on black crime, black on white etc. It's how folks are raised that relates to their perception of respect AND Race.

The media as you pointed out serves one purpose and that is to Inflame, Incite then Indite. Objective journalism has been gone for decades, replaced by Hit and puff pieces on whoever they like or dislike. The comments be it for the trial or even "common sense" gun laws are no different.

Also the populace at large elect the same bomb throwers year after year after year in urban areas.
Don't like something in a liberal area, RIOT
Don't like something in CO, RECALL.

last item is WHITE GUILT. that's self explanatory.

Same for chitown or that chocolate city, Norlins. Crime is out of contro,l black on black violence is so far gone, Nothing outside of strict enforcement of the law and prison time can help diminish it.
HOWEVER for that to happen the Sharptons, jacksons, white guilt liberals would need to admit it's not race relations that have failed, it's their failure to act early, their failure to admit their own are to blame, that did. Instead "they" blame guns from out lying areas, racism and whitey's failure to provide education, that's the cause.

That was a interesting read. It is really disappointing that not all evidence was allowed in this case. Nothing was stopped from being presented on Zimmerman, but pretty much anything on Trayvon like the things mentioned in the link were frozen. The IT director in the link is another victim of this Kangeroo trial.

On another note I agree with an earlier post a decade or three ago I never thought about race in my neighborhood. Pretty much the only thing I noticed was if a house was looking unkempt or crime was going on such as burglaries and graffiti. The balck family across the street worried about the same thing and it was not about race. Now were all divided .

I don't honestly think we're "sheltered" here in CO, it's just not a front and center issue as much as it is elsewhere in this vast and diverse nation. No one seems to remember the LoDo crap last year? Black dudes beating up white guys late at night and spouting racial comments, and both the mayor's office and DPD brass refused to call it "hate crime" or "racially motivated". The sad part is, this whole drama has become racially involved, thanks to baiters like Jackson, Sharpton, and Oblahblah... DOJ doing community organizing? That's a huge problem right there. Obama inciting this behavior ("If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon"), and the twitter scene blowing up with talk (actions maybe not) of riots and killing white people. This is all getting way out of hand. Guarantee if it was a black man that shot a 17 year old white kid, this wouldn't even be a blip on anyone's radar.

Michael Brown was talking about it yesterday, and it's all the fault of the liberal media, and the baiters mentioned before for making this a big deal. Had they not gotten involved and this just left alone, I don't think any charges would be filed, and no one would have ever known the names of Trayvon Martin or George Zimmerman. Brown was right, rule of law in this country is starting to vanish.

I agree, to an extent we are sheltered here in Colorado. However, don't be so naive to think the kettle can't explode here as well. The "Zimmerman/Martin" shooting has received more publicity than some of our mass shootings. You now have celebrities (Jamie Fox) promoting the idea of blacks uprising and rioting - nationwide. The day that verdict is going to be handed down, I'm still rollin' heavy...just to be safe. I don't like the idea of getting caught with my pants down. I will put money on it, that if any verdict aside from the 2nd Degree Murder charge is handed down...there will be rioting. It's a powder keg just itching to explode...I pray you are right, that we are sheltered here and the madness doesn't get too out of hand. The last thing Colorado needs is more negative media attention. Right now, all we can do is sit...and wait.

The same day, 4-29-1992, I had an appointment at Kerlan-Jobes Orthopedic for pre-OP consultation with my family.
I believe it was near Inglewood near Great western Forum where Kings and Lakers use to play.
I did watch the case on the TV at a waiting room and people were surprised, but that was about it at the time.
When we got out after appointment, Radio was telling people, there is riot going on at some places.
After 15minutes into driving back home east burb, they were telling drivers and shop owners to get out.
We missed it by nearly about 30minutes.

Well. This stupid riot/looting shit went on for about 3 days.



Court cases? Hell, all it takes is for a city to win some sports championship and people go crazy trashing their own town. That's something I'll never understand.

The trial began with a knock knock joke. I'm disappointed it didn't end with one.

I was on a school bus in Berkeley CA when the Rodney King riots broke out. Berkeley was not LA but it was about 30 minutes of chaos before we cleared the city limits. I have no faith and fully expect riots.

The state attorney is talking. She says that because the screaming stopped after the shot was fired, they knew it was trayvonn that was screaming.

What the hell kind of reasoning is that? Why would Zimmerman keep screaming either?

Yeah, that lady is sounding like an idiot and needs to stfu already.

Game over. She can say what she want's but Trayvon is in the ground and Zimmerman has been acquitted, it's water under the bridge at this point.

After all the hype up over "there are going to be riots" if it ends up not happening I will be very put out.

It is good to see the jury uphold the facts as presented, the evidence and rule of law.
At least that part of the system worked as designed in this case.

You know BHO, EH, AS, the NBPP and such are just steamed to the gills.
Yet another instance of epic fail by this administration.

Oh and that light that is fading in the east is the judges Federal career ........

So now I'm listening to the Martin family lawyers, compare young Mr Martin to the likes of Martin LutherKing And Rosa Parks. Do not get me wrong, I feel bad for the family and the fact that some young kid made some shitty decisions. But I would now way compare him to MLK. WtF. In one breath, they are calling for peace, but the undertones are....get whitey.

[ROFL1] Ya, uh the FBI have already found there was no case for Fed charges. They can file and any Fed judge on the planet (even an obama douchbag judge) will kick it during prelim. The implication of double jeopardy along with no LE from state of Federal agencies showing a prosecutable crime, it would be just another nail in the coffin for this administration.

They are going to grumble for a while so people feel like they are paying attention, and then not file.

They can review it all they want, but double jeopardy won't allow another criminal trial. I doubt he has much money that can be grabbed up in a civil trial.

This whole thing is bull shit. Racially charged from the POTUS down!!! The family's attorneys were horrible. There are no winners. We are all Americans whether we are black, white, brown, or what ever. Its all bullshit that we even have to say "black", or African American. Any media reporters saying anything but should be fired. If the POTUS does try to re-try Zimmerman it will be clear how racist the POTUS is and that he should be immediately removed from office. A jury of his peers as defined by law have found him not guilty, the family's attorneys as well as the prosecution need to remember that, and they have no business stating anymore opinions on the subject. Case closed.

These talking heads are now stating that good has been done because "people will now think twice about getting involved."

Absolutely disgusting continual pussification of society.

George acted like a responsible neighbor. He acted like a man. He should be imitated.

The real message is, "Thugs will (should) now think twice before attacking a weaker oponent."

I completely agree with you. It's just the fact that the Federal Gov wants to get involved with taxpayer dollars truly disgusts me but isn't so much of a surprise.

Exactly!! I am sure this verdict is exactly what the POTUS needed to further his agenda of division.

Amen to that Thomas.
Unfortunatly the KIC and entourage have nearly set us back to near pre King stages. Gonna take a while to sew that gash up.

Double jeopardy will only apply to the charges of murder and manslaughter. It would NOT apply to the charge of a federal hate crime. Good Fn luck proving that with an FBI file saying it didn't happen.

Spot on Tom. Did you hear the Rosen show the other day where he was going through the Dept. of Justice stats on Black on White violent crime? IIRC it spiked 17% in 2012. Scary stuff. This racial division bullshit is getting out of hand. But it's part of the left's playbook, so it isn't going away anytime soon.

"You have a little black boy who was killed," said Benjamin Crump, an attorney for the parents of Trayvon. "It's going to be reported in history books and 50 years from now, our children will talk about Trayvon Martin's case like we talk about Emmett Till."
Emmett Till, a 14-year-old black young man, was tortured, grossly disfigured and murdered in 1955 in Mississippi after being accused of flirting with a white woman.

Actually, no, they won't. Trayvon won't be remembered 18 months from now, sorry. The new iPhone, yes, but dead&buried Trayvon will drop off the charts in short order.
