So they are saying that there are missing texts in the report as well. Nice.

Crump said again that he was going to ask to depose MOM. How can he depose someone when he isn't a prosecutor.

And now we're on to demand for specific discovery regarding "cleaned up" audio listened to by Tracy Martin.

On the phone data

No matter how precise and clear West tried to state what is required... BDLR obfuscates..... it is quite ridiculous

BDLR: State has not provided Crump with any cleaned up audio.

BDLR: Maybe West is confused about what Crump meant. Maybe the City Hall had better audio equipment than the police.

Nelson brings up writ of ceriorari, says that she won't compel State to ask Crump about audio, nor will the court itself inquire of Crump, until 5th DCA rules on writ.

Media totally glossing over the fact that Crump lied again.

Onto additional witness disclosure.

O'Mara especially wants witnesses DDD and EEE. Goes to BDLR's table to provide redacted information off-microphone.

BDLR wants time to depose witnesses, and wants same opportunity to introduce new witnesses.

Nelson allows additional witnesses; timely disclosure of deposition/discovery regarding witnesses.

5 defence witnesses allowed

Seems to be something a bit special about witness A that worries BDLR.... he will be allowed to perhaps propose extra witnesses as well based on what Witness A depo reveals.

Nelson was all set to question GZ on Immunity... MOM... objects

On to the State's motion regarding Immunity.

Nelson wants Zimmerman to testify. O'Mara says, "I don't think that's appropriate at this time." Explains that immunity is not required by statute, rules, or case law to be invoked pre-trial.

Nelson really, really wants to ask questions of Zimmerman today. O'Mara is conferring with West and Zimmerman.

This seems a bit shonky to me.

Nelson questioning GZ about ANYTHING!!!!!


MOM wants it done "In Camera"

MOM: "It touches on defence strategy.... for one thing"

I get a bad feeling about this judge from the first time I heard her and every time since.

This seems to be a long conversation about these "few", "limited-scope" questions Nelson wants to ask Zimmerman under oath. She just recessed for five minutes.

Zimmerman appears to be going in camera.

ETA: with MOM/West, and without the State prosecutors.

Nelson is incapable of getting a straight answer to a straight question from BDLR
She seems to let that go.

Sidebar regarding this questioning of GZ... now 5 min recess
