She had heard Trayvon before - that evening
She had NEVER heard George - but heard two different men?

I believe that in her mind she wants her story to be true.
She has adjusts parts to make it feasable or logical to her, while ignoring other parts that are impossible
(George fired 3 shots into Trayvon's back).

Subconcious agenda?

On emotion- a wash. On facts - defense win.

Witness: Jeannee Nanalo

11:59 a.m.
De la Rionda questions Nanalo about her family and school activities. She says she is going to school, but previously worked in restaurant.

She lives in Seminole County, and lived at Retreat View Circle back in Fe. 2012.

10:57 a.m.
The jury is reseated and the state call's their next witness.

Court reporter having a difficult time understanding this witness. Wait until Rachel arrives.

Common observation.

While trying to browse through a few of the CTH comments late last night, I noticed a comment about a new member on the defense team. That comment guessed it was someone to translate for #8!

Zimmerman on top... punching?

Wow... he missed Trayvon and fists swung back up to punch himself.

Bernie is so hell bent on leading... even when his version does not quite agree with what has been said... he eventually causes confusion in the testimony.

So at the time she couldn't tell, but after seeing the news, she determined it was George. Since she determined the "bigger" one was on top, did she describe what he had on?

Legal Question:

Would it be okay for her to ask Bernie to run an old newcast to help refresh her memory of what she recalls?

Cross should definitely be a popcorn worthy event.






She's so cute and small, I don't really expect them to be tough on her. It could backfire. OTOH, I am looking forward to them making her a defense witness.

11:18 a.m.
She says when she saw the people, she didn’t care about the size. She say to be specific, after seeing the news, the top was bigger than the bottom.

O’Mara objects to leading question.

De la Rionda asks her opinion as to who was on top. She says she believes it was Zimmerman after comparing the size of their body.

She says she remember hearing “help” more than once.

She says the howling sound was farther away, but the help sound was closer.

She motions that the howling sound was off to the right.

She says her husband went outside after she told him someone was shot.

She says her husband came back inside because a paramedic asked for a plastic bag.

Manalo says it was a Wal-Mart bag.

De la Rionda shows her an aerial photo of the complex.

11:12 a.m.
De la Rionda returns to questioning.

11:10 a.m.

She says her husband and daughter were home with her at the time of the incident, watching TV.

She says her husband was building a coffee table they had bought that day.

She describes the weather conditions as “a little rainy.”

She says she heard “a howling sound” and looked out the sliding door, but didn’t see anything.

She says after she heard the howling, she forgot about it, but then heard what sounded like “help.”

De la Rionda asks Manalo how many times she looked out the window.

She says when she heard each sound, the howling and “help” sound, and when she saw two people on the ground.

She says after she heard “help,” she didn’t see anything, she sat down and some noises caught her attention.

She describes it as “rumbling” or “struggling.”

De la Rionda clarifies that she looked out a third time.

She says she saw her neighbor and remembers him asking “Are you guys OK? Do you need me to call 911?”

She says her husband told her to sit down and mind her own business.

She says she did, and then she heard the shot.

Manalo says she saw one person on top, moving his hands like “he was hitting him.”

She says she was not able to see faces because it was dark.

She could tell one person was bigger than the other. She starts her response, “After seeing the news…”

O’Mara objects saying it is improper foundation for her testimony.

Judge Nelson asks the attorneys to approach.

So she was comparing this photo



to this photo

Another witness that has been coached to tell a more prosecution version.

Defense needs a synonym for "defer" cos this witness doesn't understand it either.

Wow! Look how coached she is on the "answering what was asked" foul-up from yesterday.

Her statement the evening of the event was her best recollection and complete knowledge of what she saw that night

...for what she was asked.

Opens the door for Bernie to show SPD did not ask enough questions?
