Are we really gonna have a twitter update minute by minute for this trial? Will you be posting as each member of either family arrives each day?

The whole thread at this point in the process is absurd.
 
What the ....????

RZ Jr. is giving a mostly Spanish press conference IN THE COURTROOM????


Holy freaking crap!!
 
I can't believe the prosecutor or the judge knows about this.

This is ****ing amazing.

A press conference IN A COURTROOM???

I don't recall you complaining when Trayvon's parents got up to do the same thing. Seems rather selective outrage to me.

Bah, that's nothing.

Asking people to pray for a dead person!!

Could someone explain that?!

Utter bs from her.
She doesn't want a fair trial. She wants a conviction so she can get more money.

Why are you so caustic against the Martin family? What's your beef?

For heaven's sake, they lost a child due to homicide for merely walking back from the store! Are you zimmerman's significant other that you can't keep your unfounded personal gripe in check? Why not be productive and post something related to the topic, i.e. the unfolding of the trial proceeding?

I've thought about it and I've never heard anyone request prayer for a dead person before, at least, as I remember.

So, I'm wondering... is there a strange sect out there that prays for dead people?

I say we let this thread die and wait until after the jury has been seated to resurrect it.

Why? Why don't you just skip this thread if it bothers you? Some people don't have time to follow the live feed and media reports and would like to have a thread that pools together the pertinent info regarding the trial without being overwhelmed by every repetitious details.

You mean that DP's official live twitter-enhanced update thread has no ****ing clue what's going on?

Well, that's surprising. *snicker*

1 Look in the mirror and say what you have posted out loud

2 Evidence says otherwise. It clearly shows M to be the aggressor

Today is the day. It's is official. State vs. George Michael Zimmerman.

Potential Jurors are lining up at the courthouse right now.

This thread is for all Trial Court related information, discussion thereof, and updates as they happen.

Let's please resist letting it devolve into any of the extraneous back and forth / merry-go-round of Nuh Uh and Yuh huh about the same stuff that's been said for over a year now.

Let's make this about the proceedings specifically, as we begin

Day 1: The Trial Commences.

Thanks for this thread and for ignoring those flaming and baiting posts.

We were just informed that the Z family was allowed to use the (presumably) main courtroom to conduct a press conference and that the M family was denied the same opportunity. We've now come to learn that is BS. It was an over-flow courtroom and both sides were provided time to make statements.

Thus far, same old crap.

How can *the impertinent* pool together, the pertinent info?

Is that possible?

For heavens sake. :doh Why are you being dishonest in your narrative?
He lost his life because he acted out violently. Not for merely walking back from the store. So stop being dishonest for heavens sake.


That is part of the reason why. Folks make dishonest comments.


And after over a year of putting up with the vile, dishonest and caustic crap spewed about Zimmerman, it is no wonder that I don't come of harsher on them.

For heavens sake.
They lost a child due in part to their poor parenting.
They lost a child because they didn't teach him better.
They lost a child because mom kicked him out.
For heaven sake, maybe you should put the blame were it should be and not on Zimmerman.

And then we have the lies the family & Team Crump have spit out of their mouths.
There is no reason to respect that trash.
And they are doing it solely to get a innocent person convicted so they can make a buck.
For heaven's sake, no they do not deserve anything now, and you have some gall suggesting they do.
