I googled 'Bat-Sh!!t-Crazy' and got this:

She's always perpetually pissed, which makes her show worthless and ineffective; and her into a ranting cu.... you know the rest.

The expression on her face looks like she 'Forgot The Lube'

The Chris Serino cross examination couldn't have been more damning. I really do want to know how the judge can continue with this. What is his legal capability to point out that this is a waste of the citizens hard earned money?

"Fully loaded magazine, with a bullet in the chamber. The Prosecution will want the jury to see that the gun did not have a safety at all"

I hate these people

All full tank of gasoline with the keys in the ignition and the motor running. The car must not have brakes. /sarcasm

"I could do this all day everyday, This is where I belong" Quote from Nerd-Geek Lawyer druing interview w/ Greta Van Sustern. She's making her unique contribution as an 'Interviewer'.....Most people would rather be interviewed by her than O'Rielly and she still gets substantial information not fluff.

Nancy Grace has got to be heavily medicated...Lots of amphetamines and lots of tranquilizers...her head may actually explode one day.

What kind of judge would he be if he didn't allow the prosecution to present their entire case?

The defense can ask for an acquittal / directed verdict of not guilty at the close of the prosecution's case. Not likely to get it, IMO...

I don't think I've ever done as much side by side network comparison as I have for the Zimmerman case.
I go back and forth from Fox to HLN / Nancy Grace / Dr. Drew / MSNBC and the difference is night and day.

The Fox presentations (even Hannity who I consider a partisan) are appealing to your intelligence.

The LIBTARD networks are mostly Shrieking Animosity...and on HLN are only a notch above a twisted TV Game Show.

They HATE Zimmerman and if they could just go ahead and lynch him on live TV and get away with it they would.

A blog written by a criminal defense atty and seems to be the best source of refined info on the case:

At one point Serino was pressured to initiate a “challenge meeting” with Zimmerman, in which he would try to goad Zimmerman to making substantive changes to his testimony or to admit to a substantive omission from his prior testimony. The purpose of the “challenge meeting,” it was explained, is to try to break the suspects story and get to the truth. Indeed, the investigator might even pretend that some piece of incriminating evidence existed, or otherwise exaggerate evidence contrary to the suspect’s narrative, to try to find a chink in the suspect’s story.


The trouble, Serino recounted, is that he couldn’t really do an effective “challenge meeting” for the simple reason that “I just didn’t have much to challenge him WITH.” In this case, O’Mara asked, you didn’t have much to hit him with? “No sir,” answered Serino, “I did not.”

Nevertheless, the “challenge meeting” was held. In the absence of any real contrary evidence with which to challenge Serino, the Investigator pretended to have some ready to spring. They had discovered, he said, video footage of the events that evening. “And what did Zimmerman say when you told him that?” “He said, Thank God,” Serino answered.


The last O’Mara question of the day, the last words the jury heard to take with them into the evening recess, could only be characterized as catastrophic for the State’s theory of the case. Looking directly at the man who had been the chief investigator on the case, who had possessed access to ever bit of evidence of any sort, who had interviewed, and re-interviewed, and re-re-interviewed–applying increasing from each interview to the next–O’Mara asked him:

“Do YOU think George Zimmerman was telling you the truth?”

Serino succinct answer: “Yes.”

They need Grace, OReilly, Rush L and Chris Matthews all on a show together. For extra fun, let's toss in Piers to play the part of the foaming dog.

For extra extra fun lets toss in a live hand grenade.

If he gets out of the trial without any jail time, he's going to be one rich dude.

Well, even if he goes to jail he will be.

Wrong!

If he is found innocent and set free, first will come the riots, then the civil lawsuit from Treyvon's family. He will be found guilty in the civil suit, and mashed with a heavy financial ruling.

not sure re FL, but I believe in MN an acquittal provides protection from civil liability.

There is SOME truth to that. It's a very limited scope of protection. And it doesn't mean they can't sue. It means they shouldn't win. You'll have to pony up some $ to pay for an attorney.
