Why do people keep saying "your team"?

Is this some type of sporting event? How do you select teams in a murder trial?

What he said when asked is "absolutely not".

Yes....But, this question about the web page has caused the recess. They are quibbling whether it can be raised in rebuttal.
He'll be back after the judge makes her ruling.

He said it with such vehemence, I'm thinking he didn't know that the website was advertising the Zimmerman program. But it might still be used for impeachment, depending when the Zimmerman stuff was posted.

Even the prosecution has given up on the theory that Zimmerman was on top. Now, as I understand it, the theory is that Martin was on top but then running away when he got shot in the anterior chest. The case is over now though, so it's up to the jury.

Exactly, even the blood trapped under fingernails was not very useful to get DNA. I'm not sure why the DNA is a big deal here anyway. This isn't exactly a "who done it". Even if there was Martin's blood or DNA on the gun or holster it wouldn't mean anything.

Hell, who knows what their "theory" is anymore. I guess we'll find out in closing arguments, which will be nothing more than more speculation. Its not as if they can use much info obtained from the trial unless they're going to go over how many times their own witnesses backed the Defenses version of things.

On the gun or holster it would mean a lot. It would mean that they were struggling over the gun.
