Residents called Zimmerman and he merely reported it to police. He wasn't out looking for black men. These calls will mean nothing for the prosecution.

Why is that? Are you not used to men who actually care for and protect their families.

Yes, I think it's a huge win for the prosecution; they Judge DENIED the motions by the Defense to keep those calls OUT.

They can't have it both ways.

But they'll try.
The JURY will decide what importance to give the calls versus the testimony of the NW person. She was not qualified as an expert in court, IIRC. If I'm incorrect about that, I'm sure you'll let me know with something to support your word.

GZ knew nothing about Trayvon when he reported him to the police. Zip. Trayvon's past is totally irrelevant.

It's the LAW which determines whether or not Martin's tweets and past is allowed in. So far the Court has ruled they cannot come in BASED ON THE LAW. And ONE MORE TIME, Zimmerman did not know Martin at the time he shot and killed him and he did not know anything about Martin's past.

If they mean nothing for the prosecution, WHY did the Defense fight so hard to keep the calls out of evidence???

When we heard the recordings of the calls, we will know whether or not Zimmerman was reporting incidents which were reported to him or if he was reporting what he was seeing. However, the Defense DID NOT WANT those calls to be played to the jury. They fought hard to keep them out.

really his past is irrelevant

the fact of being 6'3 former high school football player with anger issues

the fact that he was from a broken home

the fact that he was suspended at least 3 times just in the past year

the fact that he was caught with stolen property and burglery tools

the fact that he had a pipe and an bag of weed residue

the fact that he told his girl friend he was going to get this guy who was watching him

the fact that he was acting suspicous, looking in some of the houses, (casing/checking out )

the fact of his offensive tweets and illegally having a gun

realy that is all irrelevant


the facts are a punk kid was acting suspicous in a neighborhood that was having problems with robberies, he was tailed/observed by the neighborhood watch, TM attacked the neighborhood watch, and unfortuatly was killed in self defense

This crazy woman. Her 911 call is hilarious. She has a captive audience in that poor dispatcher, who can't hang up on her.
