Featured Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Indicted for Allegedly Falsifying Arrest Warrant

He laughed because a witness said that a person did not have to wait until he was dead in order to defend himself. The defense attorney should have advised him in advance not to show any emotion in the courtroom. I think that other people in the court were laughing, too.

As for the prosecutor, now that she has been indicted, does she have to withdraw from the case? Why is the indictment not enough to cause a mistrial already?

 

Right because this comment of yours is grounded in truth:

Shameful. No need to try and deflect from it now. And if that is your idea of Christian love, I pray that no one comes to you hoping to be pointed to Christ.

Seems to be why George Zimmerman is now on trial.

Perhaps if George Zimmerman had learned this earlier in life Trayvon Martin would still be alive and George Zimmerman wouldn't be on trial?

 

I'm watching the trial live right now. Officer Serino is on the stand testifying that he played the 911 recording of the screams during the altercation for Martin's father. The camera pans to Tracy Martin (the father) and he is smiling.

What do you think that means Zaac?

 

And they usually do advise them of that. That jury is constantly watching you as you sit there to see if there is something that would lead them to presume that you're not being truthful.

It's just a bunch of words to make the story sound interesting. A CITIZEN'S grand jury, especially in high profile cases, is akin to a lynch mob. They are generally biased and make their non-judicial "indictments" based upon what they believe the outcome should be.

 

Did Tracy Martin take someone's life? Is he on trial?

As church mouse stated, the defense attorney should have advised him (Zimmerman)to remain emotionless no matter what.

 

I don't know. But his son is dead and he was smiling as the police officer recounted playing the 911 tape. According to your logic, he should not smile in court because of this terrible tragedy. Just trying to apply your logic here.

 

We don't know what the circumstances were when that photo was taken. It's out of context. You are judging something without all the facts. That's my point.

 

You OBVIOUSLY misunderstood my logic. According to my logic, if you took someone's life and you're on trial for that, you remain emotionless and you certainly don't give the impression to the jury or the folks watching that anything, at this point, is laughable.

 

I don't know the facts. that's why I'm not judging him. And you do puh-lenty of "deeming", right here in this thread. Don't you ?

 

Do ya suppose we could all agree that if BOTH of them had learned this, Martin would still be alive and Zimmerman wouldn't be on trial?

Suffice to say, Zaac saw a picture taken at a specific point in time, which was obviously published by someone with motives, and it struck him wrong. We've all had moments like that.

I think what Zaac is getting at is: Is Zimmerman showing any remorse for what happened? I believe the answer is yes; although that one picture, taken at a moment when everyone else in the courtroom was laughing as well (and therefore, by Zaac's logic, not showing proper consideration of the gravity of the situation, and therefore should ALL be chastised), is being used out of context to indicate otherwise.

Please, Zaac, feel free to correct me where I'm wrong.

 

And my point is he is on trial for second degree murder. It doesn't look good no matter what the circumstances that's why defense attorneys generally advise their clients to not do it ESPECIALLY in capital offense cases or high profile cases.

 

No, I don't think so. You have judged Zimmeran guilty of murder. And you think this photo backs you up.
It's out of context. Was it even taken during court proceedings? Was the jury in the room?

Do you know?

 

Oh, not to worry. you'll get what you want. he's going to jail, one way or the other. after all, he killed a black kid. now, if he had killed maybe a latino, or an asian, or even a white kid.......

 

Then if YOU don't know the facts, by what factual measure do you deem the facts to be unimportant to me?

 

Now THAT I agree with.

Don this was a specific moment from the trial. And yes I do find it odd that someone on trial for what he's on trial for would not have been told by his attorneys to not do that.

That is precsely my point and one of the reasons I don't quite get why the judge allowed this to be televised.

This nation is teetering on the brink of a flat out race war. And to have him in court like that is NOT a good thing.

That's a picture that will haunt the country if he is not convicted.

 

OBVIOUSLY you did as your next statement attests.

I hadn't said anything about Zimmerman and murder. I stated that he took someone's life.

I know it's all over the internet and the news in the middle of the trial. As such, believe me, it's not gonna matter when it was taken. But based on the suit and his much fuller face, it was probably taken during the trial.

 

I've never seen the photo until you posted it. I've watched some of the trial everyday. Maybe if you and others would stop spreading it around?

 

Um, you are the one who said he didn't need to know the facts. Aren't you ?

 

In high-stress situations - and let's face it, GZ is under a lot of stress - we can't always control our reactions to things.

I had a young lady once who, in one of the most stressful times of her life, broke out in laughter. Where other people were crying, tears literally dropping off their cheeks, she laughed in our faces. We were understandably annoyed, and reacted in ... "proper" ... military fashion. And she laughed even harder.

Turns out, she was of the type that in high-stress situations, she couldn't control her emotional outbursts. She didn't find us funny in the least; in fact, if she were able to react the same way as others, then she would have been on the floor sobbing and whimpering.

Oh, that's obvious. The government wants to be seen as doing something about this heinous crime against minority youth.

Because, even before OJ, the "entertainment value" of such things requires that CNN, Fox, and other entertainment -- er, um, "news" -- sources have to keep their ratings going, and by golly, the constitution protects a "free press."

 

I deal with inner-city, outer-city kids of every skin color, creed and culture. And I'll tell you guys something that the average person im America may not have learned yet.

But you call a Black person a thug or a gangsta, you might as well have called them the "n" word.

And they will flat out tell you that's what it's perceived as. Several of the kids have told me that they are onto the way folks in the media, schools and the churches use the words because it's politically incorrect to say what they really want to say for fear of being branded a racist.
