ITA. Common sense indicates it had to be GZ screaming. Moreover, the evidence supports it.
IMO it is common sense that the one screaming wouldn't be the one with the gun.

TM didn't think he was a suspect in anything because he knew he was doing nothing wrong. GZ is the one who thought he was from the get go. GZ mistakes were costly, IMO. Again, I don't view GZ as a murderer at all, but my goodness, look what happened because of his mistakes. This is all I'm saying, it's a sad situation, but it's hard for me not have any feelings for a teen coming back from the store with Skittles/drink minding his own business wanting to watch a game on TV but never made it. I can't get past that. The past breakins in the neighborhood should have been left up to the police, NOT GZ, he was simply to report and that should have been it. To me he was way to involved in all this and got a bit too gun-ho and took it too far. IMO
I agree, Katie. I think this witness is trying so hard to ensure he is being understood with his accent. He is speaking slowly, and trying to clearly enunciate each word, even spelling some for the court reporter.
I would love to hear him explain this memory thing, though I am sure they won't let him. It is probably interesting. Obviously he's done some research about memory and has employed some philosophy about it.
But he does not seem to understand the courtroom mechanics, and it seems at odds with his obvious intelligence and studiousness regard his ME practice.
Just so weird!

Yes, and IMO this prosecution is strictly for political reasons.
Actually it is the Autopsy Report that must be public...and it is...to the pertinent people...but the ME's private notes are not public property.IMO
DW is quoting from the Autopsy Report....he doesn't need the notes...The ME testified he had done more than 3,000 autopsies...I see why he would need personal notes..it helps The Court for him to give more detail...it was preposterous for the defense to think they could commandeer the man's notes...bet they aren't willing to hand over their own...or those of George. IMO
Media coverage tonight...
I have never witnessed an ME testify with such precision and accuracy...
He was in total control of the courtroom...
One word...authentic...
Why? Because you would not want the man who you feel unjustly killed your child prosecuted? You would just accept the killers word for it? I think TM's family has every right to seek justice for their child. Nothing wrong with that. What is wrong is that the public had to get involved in order for that to happen. Smh.
The past breakins show the neighborhood to be an unsafe place. The police can only respond after something (maybe REAL bad) has already happened. A neighborhood watch is to prevent breakins, something GZ previous reporting probably did IMO.
GZ called 911 because TM was walking on people's lawns and peering in windows, "acting suspiciously."
ME was apparently in a blackout on the day of autopsy? This is unbelievable. He says he has absolutely no memory of that autopsy. I find this extremely difficult to believe. IMO
I didn't have any trouble understanding him. :dunno:
That's what's very sad to me too and gets me. Trayvon made mistakes when it comes to George. He may have did things he probably shouldn't have done. But to me, it is really hard knowing he was just trying to get home to watch the NBA All-Star game and drink his tea and eat his Skittles while talking to his girlfriend (were the skittles for someone else?) and hang out and go to school on Monday not having any idea that he was on someone's radar for being "suspicious" and that those would be his last moments and that he wouldn't make it home to watch his game (I love the All-Star game too). This is not a clear cut case of murder. But I feel very strongly that George Zimmerman should in some way, in any way, be held accountable for the choices he made that ended in this kid's (yes KID, because he was a kid) life being taken.

I highly doubt this judge will throw out this case........
I don't think the court room in general did either...but can't be sure at this point. IMO
They're breaking for lunch now.

Ok, he called it in, I get that, but it's what happened after that. TM standing on someone's lawn, this was a townhouse complex, was it not? Some lawns are public property if you will and standing on it, if in fact that was what he was doing, isn't a big deal to me. GZ said he's looking into people houses, somehow I doubt that, JMO. He may simply been looking around and not at someone's window peeking in. Why would TM do that? really? :twocents:
