I'm guessing the hearing didn't go well? I was up and watching the whole thing on live stream, but with my mouth hanging open and drooling. Too sleepy to take much in. I hope to find out here what happened. Is anything about TM's past coming into the trial? OMG Crump is uggly from the back too.
You are correct
For the trial... I recommend getting drunk before each day starts, and playing loud music while it is in progress.

The field trip is NOT meant to recreate the entire event... but rather to give jurors an idea of geography.. distances etc.
We have seen how that can be distorted in videos... such as the ones LIMPapa makes.... it really would help (IMO) to let the jury see the place where it all took place.

Nelson got the point. She doesn't want to fuark up the State's case by interfacing the jury with reality.
According to MOM, all the motions regarding TM, drugs,fights,gun, cannot be said in opening statements, but can come in if state opens the door. According to Crump, none of it can come in period.
Interesting Crump presser, the usual twisting of facts. No questions for Sybrina. NatJackson basically dragged away, you could see she was chomping at the bit to get at the mic...

Yes... supposedly they can come in if State "opens the door"... but the doorman is Nelson.... don't hold your breath while waiting for her to allow anything in during trial.

A door can be opened by a witness answering questions by the state. I've seen that happen a lot. Even though the state will tell a witness where they can't go, the witness will make a mistake and not even know it. One word out of place can do it.
I saw a new state attorney at the hearing. Anyone know who that is? He looks and acts calm. Unlike Bernie.

Robert Zimmerman, Jr. just made a move that will cause the most rabid of bigots to out themselves, because they are incapable of doing otherwise.
God Bless you, RZJr! You are the face and the voice of true courage and character.

It could go like this Sabrina: "he was a good boy" MOM: "does a good boy have pictures of under age girls and videos of him beating up homeless people" BDLR: "Objection facts not in evidence" MOM: "your honor I would like to present the following items as evidence"
If she denies the evidence, that would be the first place for appeal. It goes to direct impeachment of a witnesses testimony.
….. that Trayvon has pictures of unknown (?) 15 or 17 year old girl naked on his phone (sexting) @2:06:21 ….. that Trayvon has video he took on his phone of a homeless man being beaten by his crew @57:28 ….. that Trayvon sought to purchase more marijuana in Sanford @52:58 ….. that there’s a whistleblower in the States Attorney’s office willing to give testimony that Bernie De La Rionda intentionally manipulated and hid the information from Trayvon’s phone @2:01:20.
