3)B76 W/F State

State withdraws objection. Somebody find that facebook lol

That makes Bernie look like he confined his investigation of PJ's to a color.

E-22 B/F - Defense pre-empt

State objects

M-75 – O’Mara moves to strike because she is Facebook friends with a witness. He says Facebook postings suggest interaction between them.

De la Rionda asks to see the posts.

First Unitarian (sp?) Church, administrator for 19 years.

Pastor at the church wrote a letter published in the Sentinal, that was very pro-Trayvon.

Also, sermon by the Pastor that was also pro-Trayvon

Discussed how significant it was and how they needed to make a stand against it.

3:02 p.m.
Judge Nelson asks for any objections. There are none.

E-28 – No peremptory

She says the alternates are: E54, B72 E13 and E28

She asks for back strikes.

Six members of the jury: B-29, B-76, B-37, B-51, E-6, E-40

She says alternates are: E-54, B-72 E-13 and E-28

She asks for back strikes.

De la Rionda says there is concern for juror E-6. O’Mara responds says she only recognized the name.

Judge Nelson says she indicated she recognized four names.

Judge Nelson says she understands what the state is saying. She says she is not allowing the strike.

She addresses Zimmerman. He answers "yes, your honor" to all her questions. She asks if he has had the opportunity to discuss with his attorneys the potential jurors. She asks if the jury panel is acceptable to him.

2:54 p.m.
O’Mara says there are no back strikes.

Judge Nelson asks the attorneys to approach.

2:52 p.m.

O’Mara says Juror E-22 suggested she heard about the case in the beginning and felt the police should have been more active. He says she wrote a letter published in the Orlando Sentinel that was pro-Trayvon Martin. O’Mara says he has documentation that her church group was vocal about the case. He says the church did research on Martin.

De la Rionda responds that there’s no proof she authored the documents. He says she told the court she could keep an open mind. He says a church member should not be grouped with the whole, using himself as an example. He says it is pre-textual because she is a black female.

O’Mara says the issue is not that she is church member. He says he considers her to be stealth. He says he doesn’t think she properly presented herself.

De la Rionda says the juror was not asked specifically about an issue.

Judge Nelson says the jurors were questioned extensively. She says had she responded, the court would not be concerned. She allows the strike.

E-13 – No peremptory.

Alternates: E-54, E-73, B-72 and E-13.

She asks for back strikes.

The attorneys are discussing.

2:42 p.m.
B -72 – No peremptory

E-22 – O’Mara moves to strike

De la Rionda asks for the reason.

They will meet Monday morning for opening statements.
