George Zimmerman Trial Part 2

[Lorelei Lee]

And if you were a lawyer, you would be well aware of the prejudicial versus probative standard referred to by another poster. It goes both ways.

West is done, Bernie is up for the redirect of Dr. Bao. #Zimmerman

Bao says it's very difficult for someone to bend a hand open and take a picture so that's why they didn't end up taking any. #Zimmerman

Legal commentators all over the internet and all over TV, and as far as I have heard, not one of them has criticized Judge Nelson's ruling int his case as being biased or prejudiced, as being the grounds for a mistrial, or as providing Zimmerman with a solid basis for an appeal.

So very different from what I remember about the OJ trial years ago, where every lawyer commenting on the case in a professional capacity had something negative to say about Lance Ito.

Really? Don West asked to approach and she denied him? Why?

She is biased and prejudicial as hell.

Bernie points out the bottom line is #Trayvon was going to die, whether it was 1-3 mins or 1-10 mins. #Zimmerman

Shouldn't you be looking for case law?

What's funny about the judges is this is defense's doing. This is the 3rd judge assigned to this case. The first one removed their self because they had a family member (I think in-law) that worked for CNN, the 2nd judge was removed, and this judge I heard was really tough. I remember reading that the defense shouldn't have done that because this judge assigned was really tough. It's the old saying, 'better the devil you know than the devil you don't'

How do you know that as fact? Do you read her mind?

 

[djm99]

The prosecution didn't rest. Why?

Woot.. Dr. Bao is done. Well at least for now.

We can't post without case law?

If a counsel needs to talk to the judge and he says it's very important, don't you think a judge should hear him? She has no knowledge of what he's going to say or ask.

Her demeanor is absolutely abhorrent to the defense. It may have an affect in the outcome of the case depending on the issues.

Sorry, but like I said I have had a couple of very bad experiences with prejudicial judges and it's bad news. Once in probate court and another in civil court. And a person really has little recourse unless you have very deep pockets.

Good question, I don't know.

 

[djm99]

I'm surprised no one has stated this but defense asked a question about TM being able to talk. The ME's answer was TM would NOT be able to talk. About moving maybe but certainly not talk. Didn't GZ specifically say TM said "you got me" AFTER he was shot. I forgot who the poster was, but someone on this board perfectly stated that TM talking after being shot in the heart was reminiscent of the many Indiana Jones film we have all seen. Another lie old George is caught in.

Sounds like based on your experiences YOU may be the one with a prejudicial view. No matter what the judge does. IMHO

And you have no personal knowledge if she is predjudicial

Sure. But if one is going to declare that the judge is biased, one might want to cite a case or two.

Or not.

According to Bill Schaefer, the resident lawyer on WFTV in Florida, Judge Nelson's refusal to allow the evidence that Trayvon Martin had THC in his system in light of the reversal of the Medical Examiner's opinion could be an appeal-able issue.

She's biased. I am not going to be bullied by you.

I can only go by what I am seeing and hearing. She's prejudicial.
