Well, you are glad his MMA past isn't brought in. How biased is that. You want to win to such a degree, you don't care if an innocent man is taken down. Pitiful!
No, I'm saying if the past negative history and/or criminal history of the defendant isn't allowed in the trial, why would it be allowed for the victim?
And Trayvon had no criminal history, or any charges, whereas Zimmerman did. Plus, Zimmerman had to attend court-ordered Anger Management classes. I'm sure the prosecution would have loved to bring in that evidence if they were allowed to, because it IS relevant. But even that is not allowed, so why would Trayvon's tweets or youtube subscriptions be allowed? Answer is that they're not, for neither the defendant nor the murder victim.
You guys want to protray Trayvon as this angry young man, of which there is no evidence, but the angry young man was Zimmerman, and there is evidence of that.
I was leaning hung jury, but after this testimony I am looking at not guilty. But, of course, you never know about juries. This is very damaging to the Prosecution.
Do you have any link, or any other form of proof, that the Olympics Committee made a statement that they could find no record of her qualifying? Btw, I'm, like everybody else, responding to people posting on a public Internet political forum.
I don't think she ever qualified for the Olympics. She was an elite runner in the 80s, and I think she implied rather vaguely that she was one of the top 3 who would have qualified for the Olympics. So that is indeed misleading, but I don't see that it really matters for this trial.

Quote:
Jared Slinde, communications director at USA Track & Field, tells the Daily
Caller that he looked through Olympic trial results for the years 1984 and 1988
and “did not find Jayne’s name as a finisher in the top ten of any of those
Olympic Trials marathons.”
Both of their characters should be under the microscope here so that the jury can make a more informed opinion.
Yes, but there must be some rules about that. I know that a defendant's previous criminal history is not allowed to be revealed to the jury, or the fact they might be facing other charges, all things that might be very relevant, but a jury is not allowed to know about them because it would bias them.

While I think both parties involved are idiots, isn't this false? Hasn't there been information released on Martin and his fighting habits? With the suspensions and text messages, I think that it is wrong to say that he was any less prone to violence than Zimmerman. A wannabe cop and a wannabe thug is what I have seen so far.
