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.
