She's not following his lead about the address.

She just helped George with not being able to see address from certain areas.

Good girl... standing up for George.... countering Bernies insistence on being able to see number on her house.... with truck and bush there it would be obscured from view.

Agreed but check this:

LMAO she doesn't know name of street.

So, once again, prosecution and defense witness lists mixed up? Has she said anything yet that conflicts with GZ statements?

Bernie: ..could you identify the person outside yelling for help as George Zimmerman?

Lauer: "couldn't, I didn't hear him yell like that in the meetings (HOA)!

This is a good witness. She seems very concise and her story doesn't deviate too much from the original statement.

I don't know why the state is making such a big deal about Mr. Zimmerman looking for an address. On the original NEN call, he seemed to be confused about the name of a street to give the dispatcher.

Once the new insurance premiums for the HOA kick in, you'll hear lots of screaming like that at the meetings.

3:46 p.m.
O’Mara asks her if she felt drained afterward, she says it was a mix of emotions.

She says she’s not sure who the person was talking to when they said ‘take my gun.’

Lauer says she took it as a statement to the police.

“I would’ve been more concerned if they had just run off,” she says.

O’Mara asks if an officer came up to her and asked her to identify the shooter.

She says they approached an officer roping off the scene.

Lauer said she didn’t want to go over and let the person see her, so she asked for a picture to be brought over.

O’Mara shows the picture.

She said she didn’t know who it was and didn’t recognize him.

3:43 p.m.
Lauer says she was out at her grandfather’s 92nd birthday, but it was raining all day so she went home.

O’Mara points out her residence on a diagram.

He asks her about the first thing she heard.

She describes it as a loud talking.

O’Mara asks her about the type of exchange and uses a car example.

She says it was shorter, but similar.

Lauer says she didn’t hear the “following me for” or “talking about” statements.

O’Mara asks her about the noise heard on the pavement. She describes it as shoes on pavement.

O’Mara asks her if she can say how long she knew the “yelps” were going on.

She says she can’t say.

Lauer says she could hear the yelling better than heard on the 911 call.

“It sounded like they were in our living room, it was right there,” she says.

O'Mara asks her to describe the calls.

She says it sounded like they were desperate and whoever it was really needed help.

Lauer says she never heard a second voice yell for help.

O'Mara asks if she can explain why we don't hear John Good saying anything.

She says it was loud enough for her to do it.

She says she never formally met him, but knew him through sight.

Lauer says she knew Zimmerman was part of the neighborhood watch.

She says she could not identify the person yelling for help as Zimmerman, adding that she never heard him yell like that at meetings.

De la Rionda asks if she heard the yelling stop after the gunshot. She says yes.

He finishes questioning.

O’Mara rises to cross-examine.

She was ALWAYS going to be a good witness for the DEFENSE... it does indicate to me that Bernie is DESPERATE to put on any witness.

I'm glad MOM brought out there are no street signs there. I was wondering when the defense would do that.

Nelson: 'speculation unless she has heard those screams before'

What? She needs to have witnessed something like a person screaming while they were beaten to death or near it to say if the screams she did hear might have reflected that was happening?

Can it get better than this, boyfriend looking for knife to protect himself...
