Zimmerman Trial Judge In On The Fix?
- Thread starter pspr
- Start date
I agree with all the criticism of the prosecution and the judge, but you should realize, this is what you get in these places. It's not like Law and Order, etc where the judges are all wise, intelligent and experienced. This is some backwoods loser who probably got her law degree from Walmart, plus is elected so she is worried about being blamed ofr whatever goes down.
The defense lawyers are suspect as well. I haven't followed the trial closely, but I wonder why you start a trial by insulting the jurors.
The prosecutors and judge are engaged in a warped political show trial, designed not to detemine guilt or innocence but to provide a measure of raw vengeance for black racists. Obviously, nothing less than a conviction will do, no matter what the evidence shows.

The FBI expert said the voice analysis could not be accurate. If she allowed it that would be overwhelming reason to appeal any conviction. For the child abuse issue, the law says they have to prove Zimmerman knew Trayvon was not 18.Quote from trendlover:

My post say the judge do not allow the voice analysts in the court. And the judge do not allow child abuse felony charges. This is showing the judge give George Zimmerman's lawyers what they asking for. This thread say the judge is bias. I show you how the judge rule for against the prosecution.
YOU are dumb and bias pspr. YOU do not respect your very good justice system in the USA. YOU exploit your USA media to win, and do not care for the LAW to protect all people.
You just don't understand anything. BTW, this judge is a lifelong Democrat or lefty. Just sayin'.
Quote from Max E. Pad:
Its brutal that they can bring in manslaughter as an alternative, after trying someone for something harsher, because in the minds of a juror now they know it wasnt murder 2 but at the same time they think george zimmerman was in the wrong to some extent that night as well, so in their mind they are compromising giving manslaughter regardless of whether or not the prosecution actually proved manslaughter.
Plus these morons with the prosecution were actually trying to bring in child abuse as one of the other charges the jury could give to zimmerman, zimmermans lawyer lost it when they brought that up as it was apparent at that point, after failing to prove anything, in a trial where the prosecution got killed, they were willing to settle for whatever vcharges they could get.
When you allow the prosecution to lower the charge after the trial, you are essentially giving them a mulligan, if they do good, keep the charges if they do bad lower it a little, way too much power in the hands of an overzealous prosecutor.
I agree that the child abuse attempt was unprofessional and unethical, it only shows how weak the prosecution's case is.
BUT, the prosecution didn't "lower the charge" or "bring in manslaughter". The manslaughter charge is always available in such cases, this is standard operating procedure for nearly all murder cases.
GZ acted in self-defense, but this isn't a cut and dry case by any means. A 17 yr. old is dead - no jury, no matter how impartial, will let that go.
Quote from PiggyBank:
I think the mulligan is a great analogy max. they had NO fucking case and now they get a do over. This guy West has been arguing with the judge almost every day that i saw but he backs down so he doesn't make zimmerman look bad in front of the jury.. but lol he fucking shit on her and that fat whore angela corey today and they deserve it. If zimmerman gets convicted of the lesser charge I hope these defense attorneys dig for dirt.
Jem, you're a lawyer right, is this typical? To me it seems like bullshit to not have any facts of the case change and then get to press new charges.
Lesser included offenses is not an area of the law I ever had to explore.
