I wasn't aware of that. Isn't the entire case based on self-defense and GZ's imminent fear of losing his life. Or is it only 'self-defense'? I'm confused.
Many have said GZ was a 'wannabe cop'. Yet no one had the courage to say that TM could have been a 'wannabe gangbanger'. Unfortunately, the most incriminating evidence was considered bias and was not admitted in trial. To wit, TA's mother had had enough of TM's 'fighting' and sent him to...
Worst closing...EVER! Soooo convoluted. What's with showing the jury so much text on poster boards???? I thought closings were supposed to be oral - not written. In spite of the poor performance by the prosecutor, I'm confident GZ will get his just desserts. Even if it's manslaughter it...
I believe the exact quote was: "You don't need to do that" (follow TM). Guess that's subject to interpretation/sarc.
As to remorse - I don't see it. I recall GZ expressing sympathy to the family 'for the loss of their son'; but never heard him say anything about having regrets or sorrow...
When GZ first picked up the trail of Trayvon, he must have noticed that Trayvon was talking on his cell and carrying a bag of Skittles with a can of iced tea. Does this sound like the night stalker or a cat burglar??? GZ was a trigger-happy wannabe cop - pure and simple. Since he insisted...
Regarding the screams: Is there any report, written or oral, of GZ telling police/investigators immediately after the altercation, and before he heard the 911 call with the screams. that he was screaming for help? I, for one, believe it was Trayvon. GZ was too calm, cool and collected...
Morning everyone!
Haven't had time to read through the threads for the past few days - just heard about the bombshell yesterday that the DT is going to play off of Dr. D's borderline dx...and go for diminished capacity or mental illness or some such thing. I had a feeling they would try...
'Morning everyone....
Took a breather for a few days and just caught up on Skye's interview with Tricia. WOW! If there is anyone left on the planet who still thinks Travis was an abuser, they need to listen to this interview.
There was never any doubt in my mind that Travis was a kind...

I totally agree - it was a HUGE mistake for Skye and Chris not to take the stand. However, correct me if I'm wrong, Nurmi put them on HIS witness list thereby precluding them from testifying for the Prosecution or attending the trial. It was a malicious ploy to keep the truth from the...
From the NBC interview with Diana Alvear:
When asked about her lies: "I've lied - years ago.' LOL! She lied every day on the witness stand.
When asked about the purpose of all of the interviews: She says her mission now is to bring awareness to DV. LOL! She advocates for...
At the risk of sounding naive, why did DV even play a role in this case? JA and TA were never married, never co-habitated, did not have children together, and did not share expenses. They were basically 'dating' off and on, and 'going steady' for a five month period. They did not even live in...
Couldn't agree more, seattlechiquita! After watching the Perryville video, I am convinced LWOP in that hell hole is worse than death. If this can be achieved, with no parole or appeals, it would be a great victory for the Alexander family. The vagaries of a second mini-trial are too risky -...
