All Women Jury Chosen For George Zimmerman Trial [W:265]

That alone will be grounds for an appeal if a conviction happens.

Unlike everyone else, I haven't decided guilt or innocence in this case.

If stupidity were a crime, I'd certainly convict him of that but murder, I'm not in possession of all the FACTS.

An appeal based on penis envy?;)

Was the defense not involved in jury selection?
 
I understand for instance that 3 women just escaped 10 years of captivity having been kidnapped while walking alone in the dark. I understand that women and girls are frequently snatcher and killed while not being paranoid enough. I am as street smart as it gets but would avoid at all costs walking alone on a deserted street in the dark and rain.

Oh how ridiculous.. That is a criminal aberration. Most of us live 7 decades without any problem.
 
Can't we have a discussion without personal remarks. They indicate a lack of ideas and inability to advance the debate.

It's not a personal attack. You posted something completely refuted by the evidence. We all know that Mr. Zimmerman identified Martin as a teenager, by sight alone, within 30 seconds of seeing him on the street. So for you to say that he was not recognizable as a teenager contradicts all common sense and I question how anyone could say such a thing. You could simply retract what you said and we can move on.
 

Your Zimmerman information was taken (IIRC) about 6 weeks later and his lawyers at the time even said he'd lost weight.



Martin = Autopsy Report (as you note) 5'11", 158 lbs

Zimmerman = Police Report that night = 5'8" approximately 200 lbs
State v. Zimmerman: Evidence released by prosecutor

Zimmerman = Doctors Report the Next Day = 204 lbs.

So we have

5'11" vs 5'8" TM by 3"
158lb vs 204 lb GZ by 46lbs
 
Please read my post #45 as I think I already answered your question. But "penis envy" is pretty funny so you get 3 points for humor but lose 3 points for not reading all my brilliant, enlightening posts.

All-women jury chosen for George Zimmerman's trial



Women, especially mothers, will relate more to someone's child being chased and killed than a grown man with MMA training gunning down said child.They will also cooperate better than if the jury was mixed with men.

We shall see though.

Since when does 5 women and 1 male add up to being 'all women'

LOL - go fetch. . .but what I'm questioning is the '6 jurors for a trial' aspect. Just how accurate is this reporting?
 
Oh how ridiculous.. That is a criminal aberration. Most of us live 7 decades without any problem.

Not so ridiculous if it is us or our family. Betcha the Berry, Dejesus, JC Dugger, poor Hailey Dunn, victims of Ted Bundy and thousands of other families who lost a member don't think it so ridiculous.

The evidence was the link and part of the article I quoted in the OP.

Bs....

someone's child being chased and killed than a grown man with MMA training gunning down said child.
is a total fabrication.

Basically, you are making up **** on the fly. There's ZERO thought in that post

It's purpose is to stir up ****
 
As a female, I have walked alone after dark in snow, rain, and humidity. I wouldn't be too scared to walk to 7 11 and get snacks alone lol. I have done that too.

I would mostly consider a neighborhood a safe place to walk, because there are people around.

And I wouldn't like being followed by Zimmerman either. I notice when cars drive slowly past and seem to be watching me. I would be in alert.

But I think nobody here is remembering something, the jurors were vetted and were asked about sympathy and how well they can take being instructed by the law.

Oh and your are the jury selection expert?. I may not be a jury expert but am an expert on how women think and behave. I think they will understand completely why Martin in the hoodie looked so scary and suspicious to George Zimmerman. I doubt any of these women would be walking alone on a dark deserted street, see someone in a hoodie and say "Good evening". This was at night in the rain not during the sunlight hours. I think Martin even looks scary in the 7/11 video.
 
Why do you think they will think of Trayvon attacking them? They have heard little to nothing about the case and are not going in biased. Women aren't just going identify with Zimmerman as a victim of violence or something, and this is definitely not about how well women can fight Trayvon.

Martin was taller and more muscular then "grown man" Castro who like George is a little pipsqueak. No Jack. Martin was a 5'11" tall muscular male with bare fist fight experience and not the "little boy" portrayed in that picture. The 7/11 video shows exactly what he looked like at the time. No women would have a defense against him unless she had a gun.

Listen...When I drive and see a good looking woman with a nice arse, I also drive slowly past her

I would think if women were to be afraid of anyone, it wouldn't be the kid who smoked weed. It would be the guy who is alleged to have forcibly raped his cousin over a decade and had a restraining order placed on him for domestic violence.

He's also alleged to have shut off his mother's electricity and locked the junction box.

And he kicked a dog.

And as a bouncer, he allegedly assaulted a woman and displayed a "Jeckyl and Hyde" personality.

Seriously, I don't think it's even a close call here.

Frequently? Hardly. Kidnapping by complete strangers is relatively rare.
 
What's the bet? That all women are potential victims and have a victim mindset?


I work with women who have been mutilated and raped, trafficked and forced to abort, etc. etc. and many of them are strong, and think of themselves as suriviors. Not every woman wants to feel victimized forever, or is ashamed of abuse. Its very heroic.

I have never thought of Trayvon or George as an abuser to women despite all the accounts of abuse I have seen and heard of.

What's happening with the cousin saying he molested her? Is he being charged?

I'm out of the loop. When does all of this begin? Is it being televised?
 
I see no real problem with this jury. In fact I think women will do a better job at looking at the evidence rather than all the sensationalized crap in the media. Women also don't work as well as men in all female groups, so that could also play into it, but I doubt it.

In the end I think they will do just fine and go by the testimony and evidence as presented. The jury selection process has been proven to work and work well more often than not. Unless it is a celebrity of course, lol.

I believe it starts on Monday, and I'm sure it will be televised if that is allowed.
